    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Incidence Of Sustained Virologic Response 4 Weeks (SVR4) After The Completion Of Treatment
    Incidence of SVR4 after the completion of dosing, reported as hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid less than the lower limit of quantification, in participants who received active treatment (sovaprevir and ACH-0143102 in combination with RBV) as compared to those who received placebo.
    Safety And Tolerability Of 12 Weeks Of Sovaprevir And ACH-3102 In Combination With RBV In GT-1 HCV Participants
    To determine the safety and tolerability of 12 weeks of sovaprevir/ACH-0143102/RBV treatment in participants with chronic genotype-1 (GT-1) HCV, the following criteria will be used: the number of participants with discontinuations due to adverse events (AEs), treatment-emergent Grade 3/Grade 4 (G3/G4) AEs, treatment-emergent G3/G4 laboratory abnormalities, and clinically significant electrocardiograms (ECGs).
