Study of FK788 in Subjects With Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection
A Multiple Rising-Dose Study of FK788 in Subjects With Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of 4 weeks therapy with FK788 in subjects with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Also, to assess the effect of FK788 on serum ALT concentration and hepatitis C viral level during therapy and for four weeks following therapy.

This is a multi-center, randomized, investigator and subject blinded, placebo-controlled eight week study, including a four week treatment period and a four week follow-up period. Three cohorts of HCV positive subjects will be studied in a sequential manner.
