Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Sustained virologic response24 weeks of off-treatment follow-up

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety and tolerability of therapyThrough treatment period and 24 weeks of off-treatment follow-up

Safety and tolerability of therapy as measured by frequency of laboratory abnormalities, reported adverse events, and discontinuations due to adverse events

Emergence of viral resistance following initiation of therapy with GS 9190 and GS 9451Through treatment period, 24 weeks of off-treatment follow-up, and up to 48 weeks of follow-up in the Resistance Registry Substudy
Viral dynamics and steady state pharmacokineticsThrough Week 4 of therapy

Viral dynamics and steady state pharmacokinetics of GS 9190 and GS 9451 when administered in combination with PEG and RBV; measured by HCV RNA levels and plasma concentrations of GS-9190 and GS-9451 over time

Durability of response in subjects who achieve SVR36 months following Week 72
