Gilead Trial 7977 and interferon and RIBA

I just was screened today for this trial part of Gilead rollover study for non responders who genotype 1. They are recruiting others but offered to those of us who failed there 5855 and 9541 study last year. Three arms: 12 weeks with RIBA and 7977: 24 weeks with 7977 and RIBA and the one I am in for 12 weeks. The viral load results will also be blinded to doctor and patient which will be hard.  Will be released at the one month past 12 weeks.  This will be hard although I was told nothing stopping me getting my own drawn and finding out my viral load. I am la CT hardest to treat.

I know some have decided not to do but I decided to take a chance as the resistence to 7977 is almost non existent.

Am not sure if any other non responders have tried this protocol.
