    Abstract: The present invention relates to inhibiting the activity of non-genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3- NS4A protease activity. More particularly, the invention relates to inhibiting the activity of the protease from HCV genotype-2 or HCV genotype-3. The methods of the invention emply inhibitors that act by interfering with the life cycle of the HCV and are also useful as antiviral agents. The invention further relates to compositions comprising such compounds either for ex vivo use or for administration to a patient suffering from genotype-2 or genotype-3 HCV infection. The invention also relates to methods of treating an HCV infection in a patient by administering a composition comprising a compound of this invention.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to inhibiting the activity of non-genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3-NS4A protease activity. More particularly, the invention relates to inhibiting the activity of the protease from HCV genotype-2 or HCV genotype 3. The methods of the invention imply inhibitors such as VX-950 that act by interfering with the life cycle of the HCV and are also useful as antiviral agents. The invention further relates to compositions comprising such compounds either for ex vivo use or for administration to a patient suffering from genotype-2 or genotype-3 HCV infection. The invention also relates to methods of treating an HCV infection in a patient by administering a composition comprising a compound of this invention.

    Abstract: A method of amplifying an HCV nucleic acid in an HCV infected sample comprises amplifying a segment of a DNA template that is complementary to a genome of HCV RNA from the sample by a two-stage PCR, wherein a first stage PCR employs a first outer primer and a second outer primer, and a second stage PCR employs a first inner primer and a second inner primer. The nucleotide sequence of the first outer primer comprises a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2; or SEQ ID NO:9, wherein optionally 1, 2 or 3 nucleotides are other nucleotides than those of SEQ ID NO: 9. The nucleotide sequence of the second outer primer comprises a nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3 or 4; or a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 10 or 11, wherein optionally 1, 2 or 3 nucleotides are other nucleotides than those of SEQ ID NO: 10 and 11. The nucleotide sequence of the first inner primer comprises a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5; or SEQ ID NO: 12, wherein optionally 1, 2 or 3 nucleotides are other nucleotides than those of SEQ ID NO: 12. The nucleotide sequence of the second inner primer comprises a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6 or 7; or a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 13 or 14, wherein optionally 1, 2 or 3 nucleotides are other nucleotides than those of SEQ ID NO: 13 and 14.
