- Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks Post-treatment (SVR12) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks after last dose of study drug (week 20 or 24 depending on treatment regimen) ]SVR12 was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ; less than 15 IU/mL) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
- Percentage of Participants With On-treatment HCV Virologic Failure [ Time Frame: 8 or 12 weeks (depending on treatment regimen) ]
On-treatment HCV virologic failure was defined as one of the following:
- Confirmed hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) ≥ 100 IU/mL after HCV RNA < 15 IU/mL at any time point during treatment; or
- Confirmed increase from nadir in HCV RNA (two consecutive HCV RNA measurements > 1 log10 IU/mL above nadir) during study drug treatment; or
- HCV RNA ≥ 15 IU/mL at the end of treatment with at least 6 weeks of treatment.
- Percentage of Participants With Post-treatment HCV Virologic Relapse [ Time Frame: From the end of treatment (8 or 12 weeks depending on treatment regimen) through 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug ]Post-treatment HCV virologic relapse was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ 15 IU/mL between the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug among participants who completed treatment as planned with HCV RNA levels < 15 IU/mL at the end of treatment and had post-treatment HCV RNA data; participants who had been shown to be re-infected were not considered to have relapsed.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Participant had positive plasma hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody and HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA) viral load greater than or equal to 1000 IU/mL at Screening Visit.
- Participant must have been documented as without cirrhosis with METAVIR equivalent fibrosis stage of F2 to F3 or with compensated cirrhosis (F4) based on results of a liver biopsy, or FibroScan, or FibroTest score.
- Participants who were known to be HCV/Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) co-infected may have been enrolled if they had a positive test result for anti-HIV antibody at Screening and were: naïve to treatment with any antiretroviral therapy (ART), or on a stable, qualifying HIV ART regimen for at least 8 weeks prior to Baseline.
- Participants with compensated cirrhosis only: Absence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) within 3 months prior to Screening or a negative ultrasound at Screening.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Current hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection on screening tests.
- Any current or past clinical evidence of Child-Pugh B or C classification (score of > 6) or clinical history of liver decompensation including ascites on physical exam, including hepatic encephalopathy or variceal bleeding.
- Receipt of any investigational or commercially available anti-HCV agents.
