Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) 12 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12)Posttreatment Week 12

SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA \< the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ; 15 IU/mL) at 12 weeks after stopping study treatment.

Percentage of Participants With Any Adverse Event Leading to Permanent Discontinuation of Study DrugFirst dose date up to 12 weeks
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Plasma HBV DNA Change From Baseline While on TreatmentWeeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12
HBsAg Level Change From Baseline at Posttreatment Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, and 108Posttreatment Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, and 108
HCV RNA Change From Baseline While on TreatmentWeeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ While on TreatmentWeeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12

LLOQ = 15 IU/mL

Percentage of Participants With Virologic FailureFirst dose date up to Posttreatment Week 12

Virologic failure was defined as :

* Breakthrough (confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ \[15 IU/mL\] after having previously had HCV RNA \< LLOQ while on treatment), or

* Rebound (confirmed \> 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment), or

* Non-response (HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment), or

* Relapse (HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the post-treatment period having achieved HCV RNA \< LLOQ at end of treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values or last available post-treatment measurement)

Plasma HBV DNA Change From Baseline at Posttreatment Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, and 108Posttreatment Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, and 108
HBsAg Level Change From Baseline While on TreatmentWeeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12
Serum LOXL-2 Level Change From Baseline While on TreatmentWeeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12
Percentage of Participants That Required HBV Therapy During the StudyFirst dose date up to Posttreatment Week 108
Fibrosis Status as Assessed by Fibroscan Score at Posttreatment Weeks 12, 60, and 108Posttreatment Weeks 12, 60, and 108

FibroScan is a non-invasive device that assesses the hardness (or stiffness) of the liver using the technique of transient elastography. FibroScan results range from 2.5 kPa to 75 kPa with higher scores indicating greater liver stiffness. Per protocol, cirrhosis status was determined as follows:

* Presence of cirrhosis = FibroScan result of \> 12.5 kPa

* Absence of cirrhosis = FibroScan result of ≤ 12.5 kPa

Percentage of Participants That Develop Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) During the StudyFirst dose date up to Posttreatment Week 108
Percentage of Participants With SVR at 4 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4)Posttreatment Week 4

SVR4 was defined as HCV RNA \< LLOQ (15 IU/mL) at 4 weeks after stopping study treatment.

Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Posttreatment Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, and 108Posttreatment Weeks 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, and 108

LLOQ = 15 IU/mL

Serum LOXL-2 Level Change From Baseline at Posttreatment Weeks 4, 12, and 36Posttreatment Weeks 4, 12, and 36
