Application Number: | 14/684,649 |
Claims: | 1. A method of treating a hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in a patient comprising administering to the patient: a compound having the formula ##STR00194## or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and another anti-HCV agent. 2. The method of claim 1, comprising administering a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable salt is the sodium salt. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is an HCV polymerase inhibitor, an HCV protease inhibitor, an inhibitor of another target in the HCV life cycle, and immunomodulatory agent, an antiviral agent, or a combination thereof. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is an HCV polymerase inhibitor, an HCV protease inhibitor, an antiviral agent, or a combination thereof. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is an HCV polymerase inhibitor. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is an HCV protease inhibitor. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is an antiviral agent. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is ribavirin. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is pegylated interferon-.alpha.. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the other anti-HCV agent is ribavirin and pegylated interferon-.alpha.. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound and the other anti-HCV agent are administered simultaneously. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound and the other anti-HCV agent are administered separately. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound and the other anti-HCV agent are administered sequentially. |
