So I just wanted to share this awesome news.. My uncle has hep c type 1a as do I...  He got into a clinical trial at a hospital near our area..  They are still using rib and peg  plus either bocepavir or a trial drug   it starts with an m right now..   2 months in and my uncle has 0 viral load!    He has had this virus for many many years and I do believe his viral load was high i think like 2 million?        I just wanted to share this news with people  I hope it makes someone feel more hopeful!
