Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Males and females, 18 to 70 years of age
  • Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1a or 1b
  • HCV-treatment naive
  • HCV RNA >10,000 IU/mL at screening
  • HIV-1 infection (approximately 250 patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy [HAART], up to 50 patients not receiving HAART)
  • For patients receiving HAART, HIV RNA must be below <40 copies/mL at screening and must be <400 copies/ml for at least 6 months prior to screening

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients receiving HAART who first initiated antiretroviral therapy within the last 6 months of Day 1
  • Patients receiving HAART who have changed their antiretroviral regimen due to safety or efficacy associated to HIV treatment within the last 3 months prior to Day 1. However, if changes are required to a patient's HAART regimen to meet the requirements of the protocol, these changes are allowed at the screening visit. The patient should wait a minimum of 1 month prior to Day 1 after a repeat of HIV viral load has been confirmed, <40 copies/ mL
  • Use of prohibited HAART regimens within 1 month of Day 1 and throughout the treatment period of the trial (patients receiving HAART who have changed their antiretroviral regimen to initiate any HCV treatment within 6 weeks prior to Day 1)
  • Laboratory values:
  • Neutrophil count <1500 cells/μL (<1200 cells/ μL for Blacks)
  • Platelet count <90,000 cells/μL
  • Hemoglobin ≤12 g/dL for females, hemoglobin ≤13 g/dL for males
  • Total bilirubin ≥34 μmol/L (or ≥2 mg/dL) unless a patient has a documented history of Gilbert's disease or antiretroviral regimen contains atazanavir
  • Alanine aminotransferase ≥5*upper limit of normal

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response at Follow-up Week 12 (SVR12)

    Time frame: Follow-up Week 12

    SVR12 was defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) values lower than the lower limit of quantitation, target detected or target not detected at follow-up Week 12. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory. HAART=highly active antiretroviral therapy. SVR12 was defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) values lower than the lower limit of quantitation, target detected or target not detected at follow-up Week 12. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory. HAART=highly active antiretroviral therapy.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) RNA Levels Lower Than The Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ), Target Detected (TD) or Target Not Detected (TND)

    Time frame: Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and at both Weeks 4 and 12; end of treatment; and follow-up Weeks 12 and 24

    Participants who achieved HCV RNA levels lower than the LLOQ i.e., 25 IU/ml, TD or TND. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory. HAART=highly active antiretroviral therapy.

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) RNA Levels Lower Than the Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ), Target Not Detected (TND)

    Time frame: Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 and at both Weeks 4 and 12; end of treatment; and follow-up Weeks 12 and 24

    Participants who achieved HCV RNA levels lower than the LLOQ, TND. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory. HAART=highly active antiretroviral therapy.

  3. Percentage of Participants Who Received Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART), Maintained HIV RNA <40 Copies/mL, and Experienced Confirmed HIV RNA ≥400 Copies/mL

    Time frame: End of treatment (up to Week 48)

    Participants who received HAART, maintained HIV RNA <40 copies/mL, and experienced confirmed HIV RNA ≥ 400 copies/mL were determined.

  4. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR12) by rs12979860 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) in the IL28B Gene

    Time frame: Follow-up Week 12

    Percentages calculated as number of responders/number who received treatment.

  5. Number of Participants Who Died and With Serious Adverse Event (SAEs), Grade 3 to 4 Adverse Events (AEs), and AEs Leading to Discontinuation

    Time frame: From Day 1 to 7 days post last dose of study treatment (up to Week 48)

    Adverse event was defined as any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a pre-existing condition that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE was defined as a medical event that at any dose resulted in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; was life-threating, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or required prolonged hospitalization. HAART=highly active antiretroviral therapy.
