PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 12 (Follow-Up Phase)

Population: Intent-To-Treat (ITT) population included all randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of the study drug \[that is AL-335, Odalasvir (ODV) or Simeprevir (SMV)\].

The SVR 12 was defined as hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) less than (\<) lower limit of quantification (LLOQ; 15 international unit per milliliter \[IU/mL\]) detectable or undetectable 12 weeks after actual EOT.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 24 (Follow-Up Phase)

Population: ITT population included all randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of the study drug (i.e., AL-335, ODV or SMV). Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) method was used to impute the missing values.

The SVR24 was defined as HCV RNA \<LLOQ (detectable or undetectable) 24 weeks after End of Treatment (EOT).
