BACKGROUND
 
Previous investigation has indicated low viral suppression in patients who discontinue treatment with peginterferon alfa-2a or alfa-2b (alfa) and ribavirin (RBV) for chronic hepatitis C
 
The objective of the current analysis was to investigate reasons for treatment discontinuation in a clinical setting of patients treated with alfa/RBV, which either together or with newly approved antivirals is the current treatment for hepatitis C
