Summary

The primary objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks with that of sofosbuvir (SOF) + ribavirin (RBV) for 24 weeks and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of each treatment regimen in participants with chronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
