Brief Summary

This is a phase 2a, open-label, randomized study. The study is designed to test the hypothesis that the nucleoside inhibitor sofosbuvir combined with NS5A inhibitor daclatasvir and NS5B non-nucleoside inhibitor CDI-31244 with/without the protease inhibitor asunaprevir will result in high SVR rate with a shortened treatment duration (2 weeks) in non-cirrhotic HCV genotype 1b-infected subjects.

9. INR ≤ 1.5 x ULN unless subject has known hemophilia or is stable on an anticoagulant regimen affecting INR.

7. Subject has not been treated with any investigational drug or device within 30 days of the Screening visit.

8. A female subject is eligible to enter the study if it is confirmed that she is:

1. Not pregnant or nursing;

2. Of non-childbearing potential (i.e., women who have had a hysterectomy, have both ovaries removed or medically documented ovarian failure, or are postmenopausal - women > 50 years of age with cessation (for ≥12 months) of previously occurring menses), or

3. Of childbearing potential (i.e., women who have not had a hysterectomy, both ovaries removed, or no medically documented ovarian failure) based on the following conditions.

Women ≤ 50 years of age with amenorrhea will be considered to be of childbearing potential. These women must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test on the Baseline/Day 0 visit prior to randomization. They must also agree to one of the following from 3 weeks prior to Baseline/Day 0 until 4 months after last dose of the triple/quadruple therapies:

• Complete abstinence from intercourse. Periodic abstinence from intercourse (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) is not permitted.

Or

• Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed below in addition to a male partner who correctly uses a condom from 3 weeks prior to Baseline/Day 0 until 4 months after last dose of the triple/quadruple therapies. Women of childbearing potential must not rely only on hormone-containing contraceptives as a form of birth control during the study. Female subjects using a hormone-containing contraceptive prior to Screening may continue their contraceptive regimen in addition to the study specified methods of birth control.
• intrauterine device (IUD) with a failure rate of <1% per year
• female barrier method: cervical cap or diaphragm with spermicidal agent
• tubal sterilization
• vasectomy in male partner

9. All male study participants must agree to consistently and correctly use a condom, while their female partner agrees to use either 1 of the non-hormonal methods of birth control listed above or a hormone-containing contraceptive listed below, from the date of Screening until 4 months after their last dose of the triple/quadruple therapies:

8. Malignancy diagnosed or treated within 5 years (recent localized treatment of squamous or non-invasive basal cell skin cancers is permitted; cervical carcinoma in situ is allowed if appropriately treated prior to screening); subjects under evaluation for malignancy are not eligible.

9. Significant drug allergy (such as anaphylaxis or hepatotoxicity).

10. History or current evidence of any condition, therapy, laboratory abnormality or other circumstance that might confound the results of the study, or interfere with the subject's participation for the full duration of the study, such that it is not in the best interest of the subject to participate
