An Efficacy and Safety Study of Simeprevir and Sofosbuvir With and Without Ribavirin in Participants With Recurrent Genotype 1 Hepatitis C Post-Orthotopic Liver Transplant

This is a Phase 2, multicenter (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study), partially randomized (study drug is assigned by chance), and open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention) study to explore the safety and efficacy of simeprevir plus sofosbuvir. The study will consist of a screening period (Screening and Baseline), followed by randomization. First 33 non-cirrhotic participants will be randomly assigned in a ratio of 1:1:1 into 1 of 3 treatment arms, and up to 12 cirrhotic participants will be enrolled and all will be assigned to Arm 3. All participants in treatment Arms 1 and 2 will return for treatment visits at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and post-treatment follow-up visits on Weeks 16 and 24. All participants in treatment Arm 3 will return for treatment visits at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24, and post-treatment follow-up visits on Weeks 28 and 36. Participants will receive simeprevir plus sofosbuvir and RBV for a 12-week treatment period in Arm 1, simeprevir plus sofosbuvir without RBV for a 12-week treatment period in Arm 2 and simeprevir plus sofosbuvir for a 24-week treatment period in Arm 3. Efficacy will primarily be evaluated by SVR12. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.
