Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 12 (SVR12)
SVR12 was defined as hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) < lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) target detected (TD) or not detected (TND) at post-treatment follow-up Week 12. Imputed SVR12 was based on Next Value Carried Backwards approach.
Number of Participants With Deaths, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and AEs Leading to Discontinuation From Treatment
SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/ birth defect.
Number of Participants With Selected Grade 3/4 Laboratory Abnormalities
Grade 3/4 laboratory abnormalities (hematology, electrolyte, lipase, liver function, metabolic, renal function, urinalysis). The Week 24 data set was used to evaluate the Week-24 on-treatment safety. The cumulative data set was used to evaluate the safety while on treatment. Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE) Grades:1=Mild, 2=Moderate, 3=Severe, 4=Life-threatening/disabling, 5=Death.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With End of Treatment Response (EOTR)
EOTR was defined as HCV RNA less than the lower limit of quantitation, target detected or not detected at end of treatment.
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HCV RNA <LLOQ TD/TND
Percentage of Participants with hepatitis C virus(HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) < lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ), target detected (TD) or target not detected (TND) were presented at treatment Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, and follow-up Weeks 2 (SVR2), 4 (SVR4), 12 (SVR12) and 24 (SVR24).
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ TND
Percentage of Participants with hepatitis C virus(HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) < lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ), target not detected (TND) were presented at treatment Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, and follow-up Weeks 2 (SVR2), 4 (SVR4), and 24 (SVR24).
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved SVR12 Associated With HCV Geno Subtype 1a vs 1b
Percentage of Participants who Achieved SVR12 Associated with HCV geno subtype 1a or 1b
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved SVR12 Associated With Interleukin-28B (IL28B) rs12979860 SNP Status (CC Genotype or Non-CC Genotype)
Percentage of Participants who Achieved SVR12 Associated with IL28B rs12979860 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) status (CC genotype or non CC genotype) were reported.
