Primary Outcome Measures:
- the proportion of patients achieving sustained viral response (SVR) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks after the end of treatment ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Proportion of patients with "virologic relapse" post-treatment, defined as confirmed and quantifiable (>LLOQ) serum HCV RNA in a patient who achieved non-detectable serum HCV RNA by the end of treatment [ Time Frame: up to 24 weeks post-treatment ]
- Proportion of patients with confirmed viral breakthrough during study treatment [ Time Frame: up to 12 weeks of study treatment ]"Confirmed viral breakthrough" is defined as a > 1 log increase in HCV RNA from post-Baseline nadir value or confirmed increase in HCV RNA ≥LLOQ if HCV RNA previously declined to <LLOQ (detected or not detected), during the 12-week study treatment period
- Proportions of study participants who receive at least one dose of study drug and who prematurely discontinue study treatment, and proportions prematurely discontinuing treatment for clinical adverse events or laboratory abnormalities [ Time Frame: up to 12 weeks of study treatment ]
- Proportions of study participants experiencing treatment-emergent adverse events (serious and non-serious) considered to be possibly or probably attributable to study treatment, overall and by body system [ Time Frame: up to 12 weeks of study treatment ]

- Body weight greater than 40 kg and less than 125 kg
- Clinical diagnosis of chronic hepatitis C
- Treatment-naïve for hepatitis C: no previous treatment with interferon, pegylated interferon, ribavirin, telaprevir, boceprevir, or any investigational therapies for hepatitis C

- No clinically significant abnormalities in the 12-lead electrocardiogram at Screen
- Signed informed consent prior to trial participation.
Exclusion Criteria:

- Liver disease due to causes other than chronic HCV infection
- Symptoms or signs of decompensated liver disease, or evidence of cirrhosis
- Any medical condition that may interfere with the absorption, distribution or elimination of study drugs

- Clinically significant, unstable cardiovascular or pulmonary disease, including cardiovascular or pulmonary disease requiring pharmacologic intervention other than anti-hypertensive medications, statins, and/or prophylactic aspirin (or similar anticoagulant).
- Red blood cell disorder, including (but not limited to): thalassemia major or minor, sickle cell anemia.
- Diabetes Mellitus treated with insulin or hypoglycemic agents
- History of asthma requiring hospital admission within the preceding 12 months
