    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants With Extended Rapid Virologic Response (eRVR) - Part A [Assessed at Week 4 and Week 12, week 12 reported]

      eRVR was defined as Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA level below the lower limit of quantitation, target not detected at Weeks 4 and 12 of treatment. HCV RNA level was measured using the Roche COBAS® TaqMan HCV Test v.2.0 (lower limit of quantitation =25 IU/mL; limit of detection ~ 10 IU/mL).

    2. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response at Follow-up Week 12 (SVR12) - Part B [Follow-up Week 12]

      SVR12 was defined as Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA level below lower limit of quantitation, target detected or not detected at Week 12 of post-treatment follow-up. HCV RNA level was measured using the Roche COBAS® TaqMan HCV Test v.2.0 (lower limit of quantitation =25 IU/mL; limit of detection ~ 10 IU/mL).

    3. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Drug Related AEs, Discontinuation Due to AEs, Dose Reductions and Death - Part A [Day 1 of treatment up to Week 48]

      An AE was defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered an investigational (medicinal product.

    Comments Non-inferiority of Lambda/RBV/TVR to Alfa/RBV/TVR was not established because the lower limit of the 95% CI was less than the predefined non-inferiority margin of -12%. As a result, key secondary endpoints were not tested hierarchically to compare treatment groups.
    Statistical Test of Hypothesis p-Value 0.0855
    Comments Non-inferiority testing is based on lower limit of confidence interval.
