Evaluation of efficacy and tolerance to a QUadruple therapy with Asunaprevir , Daclatasvir, Ribavirin and pegylated Interferon alpha-2a, in HIV-HCV genotype 1 or 4 coinfected patients previously null responders to a standard Pegylated Interferon -Ribavirin regimen. The proportion of patients presenting cirrhosis (defined by a METAVIR F4 score on liver biopsy and/or with hepatic impulse elastometry ≥ 15 kPa) will be limited to 50% of all of the patients included
The clinical trial is multi-center, national, Phase 2, open-label, single-arm. Primary objective is to estimate the Sustained Virological Response rate (SVR) 12 weeks after 24 weeks of treatment with quadruple therapy combining Asunaprevir, Daclatasvir, Ribavirin and Pegylated Interferon alpha-2a in HIV-HCV genotype 1 or 4 coinfected patients previously null responders to a Pegylated Interferon -Ribavirin standard regimen. Estimated enrolment is 65 patients during the enrolment period (9 months). The first 12 patients included will be on Raltegravir, Emtricitabine and Tenofovir and will participate to the pharmacological sub-study. Schedule of assessments: Evaluation of inclusion criteria: 4 to 8 weeks Anti-HCV treatment: 28 weeks (or shorter according to futility rules) Follow up: 24 weeks following the end of the treatment

HCV Sustained virological response rate
the undetectable HCV RNA at wk40 (ie 12 weeks after the end of the quadritherapy associating Asunaprevir, Daclatasvir, Pegylated interferon alpha-2a and Ribavirin in case of premature total or partial discontinuation of HCV treatment, the principal endpoint will also be assessed at wk40)
Time frame: wk40
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability
* Clinical and biological Adverse Events * Treatment premature discontinuations * Perceived symptoms (ANRS AC24 Symptom Perception Scale) * Adherence (ANRS observance scale and effective dispensation by the pharmacy)
Time frame: during throughout all the study
Kinetics of HCV Virological response
Measurements of HCV RNA at wk4, wk5, wk6, wk8, wk12, wk16, wk20, wk24, wk28, wk32, wk40 and wk52 (ie 24 weeks after the end of the treatment), globally or according to the HCV genotype (1 or 4) and sub-type (1a or 1b, 4a or 4c/d)
Time frame: wk4, wk5, wk6, wk8, wk12, wk16, wk20, wk24, wk28, wk32, wk40 and wk52
Immunological and virological evolution of HIV infection
* HIV RNA levels * CD4 and CD8
Time frame: wk0, wk4, wk8, wk12,wk16, wk24, wk28, wk40 et wk52
Evolution of cirrhosis (for cirrhotic patients)
* Child-Pugh and MELD scores * end stage liver disease onset * hepatocarcinoma onset
Time frame: wk12, wk28, wk40 and wk52
Number of Participants with HIV and non HIV related clinical events
* AIDS classifying clinical events * Severe non-AIDS clinical events.
Time frame: through the study

Time frame: wk0 and wk8
Pharmacokinetics of Asunaprevir and Daclatasvir
* sub-group study (focusing on patients on Raltegravir, Emtricitabine, Tenofovir) * plasma Asunaprevir and Daclatasvir concentrations from H0 to H10 * Cmin, Cmax and AUC
