Study of Efficacy and Safety of Grazoprevir (MK-5172) + Elbasvir (MK-8742) in Chronic Hepatitis C Participants With Child-Pugh (CP)-B Hepatic Insufficiency (MK-5172-059)

The study will be conducted sequentially in 3 Parts. Each participant will participate in only one Part.

Participants will be enrolled in either Part A, Part B, or Part C:

• Part A: CP-B participants will receive GZR 50 mg+ EBR 50 mg; NC participants will receive GZR 100 mg/EBR 50 mg.
• Part B: CP-B participants will receive GZR 100 mg + EBR 50 mg.
• Part C: CP-B participants will receive either GZR 50 mg or 100 mg + EBR 50 mg. Study progression from Part A to Part B and from Part B to Part C will be based upon a review of safety and efficacy in Parts A and B, respectively. Depending upon safety and efficacy in Part A, the study may progress directly from Part A to Part C using GZR 50 mg + EBR 50 mg, without performing Part B.
