Primary Outcome Measures :
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at Post-Treatment Follow-up Week 24 (SVR24) [ Time Frame: 24 Weeks after treatment discontinuation (Follow-up Week 24) ]
SVR was defined as Hepatitis C Virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) < lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) target detected (TD) or not detected (TND) at post-treatment follow-up Week 24.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at Post-Treatment Follow-up Week 12 (SVR12) [ Time Frame: 12 Weeks after treatment discontinuation (Follow-up Week 12) ]
SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ target detected or not detected at post-treatment follow-up Week 12. For SVR12, missing HCV RNA data at follow-up Week 12 was imputed using the Next Value Carried Backwards (NVCB) approach.
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious AEs (SAEs), Death, and AEs Leading to Discontinuation [ Time Frame: 7 days after treatment discontinuation ]
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (example, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death, initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization, life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying), persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or a congenital anomaly, or a medically important event.
Percentage of Participants With SVR24 by the rs12979860 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) in the IL 28B Gene at Post-Treatment Follow-up Week 24 [ Time Frame: 24 Weeks after treatment discontinuation (Follow-up Week 24) ]
Participants categorized into three genotypes based on SNPs in the IL28B gene were assessed for SVR24, defined as response in which hepatitis C virus RNA levels below lower limit of quantitation or below target detected or target not detected at follow-up Week 24.
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA< LLOQ Target Not Detected at the End of Treatment (Week 24) [ Time Frame: Week 24 (End-of Treatment) ]
Blood was drawn from each participant to assess HCV RNA plasma levels using the Roche COBAS® Taqman quantitative RT-PCR assay, v2.0. The lower and upper limits of quantitation (LOQs) of the assay for HCV GT-1 were 25 IU/mL and 3.91 X10^8 IU/mL, respectively; the limit of detection was ~ 10 IU/mL
Number of Participants With Rapid Virologic Response (RVR) [ Time Frame: Treatment Week 4 ]
RVR was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ, target not detected at treatment Week 4.
Percentage of Participants With Complete Early Virologic Response (cEVR) [ Time Frame: Treatment Week 12 ]
cEVR was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ, target not detected at treatment Week 12.
Number of Participants With Extended Rapid Virologic Response (eRVR) [ Time Frame: Treatment Week 4 and Week 12 ]
eRVR was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ, target not detected at treatment Weeks 4 and 12.
Number of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ Target Detected or Not Detected at the End of Treatment (Week 24) [ Time Frame: Week 24 (End-of Treatment) ]
Antiviral efficacy is measured by the number of participants with HCV RNA< LLOQ (lower limit of quantification), TD (target detected) or TND (target not detected) at End of Treatment (Week 24)
Number of Participants With Virologic Response (VR) at Treatment Week 4 and 12 [ Time Frame: Treatment Week 4 and 12 ]

OR
3. Thrombocytopenia: the I±R intolerants are subjects who were previously treated with IFNα/RBV therapy and had a decline in platelet counts < 25,000 cells/mm3 during therapy (documented); the I±R ineligibles are subjects who have a screening platelet count of < 90 x 10(9) cells/L and ≥ 50 x 10(9) cells/L
