- Target Recruitment
- 106
- Participant must have chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b or genotype 4 infection confirmed at Screening
- Participant must have HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA) greater than (>) 10,000 international unit per milliliter (IU/mL) at Screening
- Participant must have documented fibrosis stage at Screening (or between Screening and Day 1 [baseline]). Liver disease will be staged based on one of the following methods.
a) Shear wave elastography (Fibroscan) within less than or equal to (<=) 6 months before Screening or between Screening and Day 1 (baseline). METAVIR F3 > 9.6 Kilopascals (kPa) and the cut-off for
cirrhosis is greater than or equal to (>=) 14.6 kPa.
b) A biopsy documenting METAVIR F0-F4. Biopsy performed within the 24 months before Screening will be accepted for participants with METAVIR score F0-F3. For cirrhotic participants (METAVIR score F4) a biopsy performed at any previous time is acceptable
- Participants who have cirrhosis must have an hepatic imaging procedure (ultrasound, computed tomography [CT] scan or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) within 6 months prior to the Screening visit (or between Screening and Day 1) with no findings suspicious for hepatocellular carcinoma
- Participant must have a body mass index (BMI) >= 18 Kilogram per meter^2 (kg/m^2)
- Participant must be treatment naive (that is, have not received prior treatment for HCV with any approved or investigational drug)
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 100
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 10
- Participant has co-infection with HCV of another genotype.
a) Participant who has HCV genotype 1b has coinfection with HCV of a genotype other than genotype 1b.
b) Participant who has HCV genotype 4 has coinfection with HCV of a genotype other than genotype 4
- Chronic HCV genotype 1b-infected participant who has the presence of genetic variants coding for the NS5A-Y93H and/or L31M/V amino acid substitutions at Screening
- Participant has evidence of current or previous episodes of hepatic decompensation (including controlled or uncontrolled ascites, bleeding varices or hepatic encephalopathy)
- Participant has chronic liver disease of a non-HCV etiology (including but not limited to hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, alfa 1-antitrypsin deficiency, cholangitis, drug- or alcohol-related liver disease, primary biliary cirrhosis)
- Participant has any other uncontrolled clinically significant disease or clinically significant findings during Screening that in the opinion of the investigator could compromise the participants' safety or could interfere with the participant participating in and completing the study
- Participant has coinfection with hepatitis A or hepatitis B virus (hepatitis A antibody immunoglobulin M [IgM] or hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] positive at Screening)
- Participant has received a solid organ transplant
