Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A total of 201 participants, treatment-naïve and experienced, with chronic HCV GT4 infection were allocated into two groups based on the type of the regimen used. All eligible participants were treated orally with SOF plus daily oral weight-based RBV (24 weeks; group 1), or SOF plus daily oral SMV (12 weeks; group 2).
