PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Posttreatment Week 12

Population: Treatment-naive participants in the Full Analysis Set (randomized, received at least 1 dose of study drug, and had chronic genotype 1 (1a, 1b, or mixed 1a/1b) HCV infection) without cirrhosis were analyzed.

SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA \< the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ; ie, 25 IU/mL) at 12 weeks after stopping study treatment.
