A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effect of three experimental drugs ABT?450, ABT-267 and ABT-333 in combination with Ribavirin in people who have had a Liver Transplant and have Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection. Experimental means that they have not been approved by any regulatory agency for sale to the public.

1. Male or female between the ages of 18 and 70 years, inclusive, at time of enrollment.
2. Liver transplantation as a consequence of HCV infection no less than 12 months before the Screening Visit.
3. A liver biopsy which shows evidence of fibrosis ? F2 (Metavir scale) within 3 months prior to or during the Screening Period.
4. Screening laboratory result indicating HCV genotype 1 infection.
5. Currently taking an immunosuppressant regimen based on either tacrolimus or cyclosporine where doses of immunosuppressant drugs have not been increased over the 3 months prior to Screening and no new drugs have been added for at least 3 months before Screening. Corticosteroids such as prednisone or prednisolone are permitted as components of the immunosuppressant regimen providing the dose is not more than 5 mg/day.
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 25
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 5
- Positive test result for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or anti-Human Immunodeficiency virus antibody (HIV Ab).
- Clinically significant abnormalities, other than HCV infection in a subject post transplant, based upon the results of a medical history, physical examination, vital signs, laboratory profile and a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) that make the subject an unsuitable candidate for this study in the opinion of the investigator.
- Recent (within 6 months prior to study drugs administration) history of drug or alcohol abuse that, in the opinion of the investigator, could preclude adherence to the protocol.
- Previous use of any investigational or commercially available anti-HCV agent other than IFN-based therapy, i.e. conventional (c)IFN and/or pegylated (Peg) IFN, with or without RBV, including previous exposure to ABT-450, ABT-333 or ABT-267.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: The primary objectives of this study are to assess safety and efficacy (the percentage of subjects achieving a 12-week sustained virologic response, SVR12 (HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA] < lower limit of quantification [LLOQ] 12 weeks following treatment) of coformulated ABT-450/r and ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267) and ABT-333 coadministered with RBV for 24 weeks in HCV genotype 1-infected adult liver transplant recipients.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the percentage of subjects achieving a 24-week sustained virologic response, SVR24 (HCV RNA < LLOQ 24 weeks following treatment), the percentage of subjects with virologic failure during treatment, and the percentage of subjects with relapse post-treatment.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the percentage of subjects with SVR12 (HCV RNA < LLOQ 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drugs).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 weeks after last dose of study drugs
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): The secondary endpoints are:<br>? The percentage of subjects with SVR24 (HCV RNA < LLOQ 24 weeks after the last actual dose of study drugs);<br>? The percentage of subjects with virologic failure during treatment;<br>? The percentage of subjects with post-treatment relapse.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Treatment Day 1 to end of treatment and end of treatment to 48 weeks post treatment.
