Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Willing and able to provide written informed consent
* Male or female, age ≥ 18 years with chronic HCV and HIV-1 infection
* HCV RNA \> 1 x 10\^4 IU/mL at screening
* Infection with HCV genotype 1, 2 or 3 as determined at screening
* HIV-1 infection confirmed with positive ELISA or Western blot at screening
* Medical records must be sufficient to be categorized on interferon (IFN) eligibility or prior treatment history with PEG/RBV.
* Confirmation of chronic HCV infection
* Ability to determine presence/absence of cirrhosis.
* HIV antiretroviral therapy (ARV) criteria of one of the following:

* ARV untreated with a CD4 T-cell count \> 500 cells/mm\^3
* On a stable, protocol-approved, ARV for \> 8 weeks prior to screening with a CD4 T-cell count \> 200 cells/mm\^3 and a documented undetectable plasma HIV-1 RNA level for ≥ 8 weeks preceding the screening visit
* Approved HIV antiretroviral medications based on drug interaction studies
* Not been treated with any investigational drug or device within 30 days of the screening visit
* Females if confirmed that she is not pregnant or nursing of non-childbearing potential or of childbearing potential but has a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and agrees to use protocol approved method of birth control from screening through 6 months after the last dose of RBV
* Males who agree to consistently and correctly use a condom while their female partner agrees to use protocol approved method of birth control from screening through 7 months after the last dose of RBV
* Must be of generally good health as determined by the investigator.
* Liver imaging within 6 months of baseline/Day 1 is required in cirrhotic patients only, to exclude hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)

Exclusion Criteria

* Non-genotype 1/2/3 or mixed genotype at screening
* Genotype 1 with prior treatment for HCV
* Poor control with ARV regimen
* Prior exposure to a direct-acting antiviral targeting the HCV nonstructural protein (NS)5B polymerase
* Chronic liver disease of a non-HCV etiology (eg, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, α1 antitrypsin deficiency, cholangitis)
* A new AIDS-defining condition diagnosed within 30 days prior to screening
* Active, serious infection (other than HIV or HCV) requiring parenteral antibiotics, antivirals or antifungals within 30 days prior to baseline
* Infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV)
* Contraindication to RBV therapy
* Chronic use of systemically administered immunosuppressive agents (eg, prednisone equivalent \> 10 mg/day)
* History of solid organ transplantation or malignancy diagnosed or treated within 5 years
* Current or prior history of clinical hepatic decompensation or other significant gastrointestinal disorder
