Application Number:	13/301,642
Claims:	1. A method for treating an HCV infection in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient an amount of a compound ##STR00291## or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt-thereof, which is effective to inhibit cytochrome P450 monoxygenase in the patient, in combination with a therapeutically effective amount of one or more therapeutic agents which are metabolized by cytochrome P450 monoxygenase and are selected from the group consisting of interferons, ribavirin, taribavirin, NS3 protease inhibitors, alpha-glucosidase 1 inhibitors, hepatoprotectants, non-nucleoside inhibitors, other drugs for treating HCV, and mixtures thereof. 2.

The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more additional therapeutic agents are selected from the group consisting of pegylated rIFN-alpha 2b, pegylated rIFN-alpha 2a, rIFN-alpha 2b, rIFN-alpha 2a, consensus IFN alpha, feron, reaferon, intermax alpha, r-IFN-beta, oral interferon alpha, IFNalpha-2b XL, AVI-005, and Pegylated IFN-beta. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more additional therapeutic agents are selected from the group consisting of NM-283, valopicitabine, R1626, PSI-6130 (R1656), HCV-796, BILB 1941, XTL-2125, MK-0608, NM-107, R7128 (R4048), VCH-759, PF-868554, and GSK625433. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more additional therapeutic agents are selected from the group consisting of SCH-503034 (SCH-7), VX-950 (telaprevir), BILN-2065, BMS-605339, and ITMN-191. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more additional therapeutic agents are selected from the group consisting of MX-3253 (celgosivir) and UT-231B. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more additional therapeutic agents are selected from the group consisting of IDN-6556, ME 3738, and LB-84451. 8.
