Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Sustained Virological Response (SVR)Week 40 (for 16-week treatment group); Week 48 (for 24-week treatment group)
SVR was defined as the percentage of participants with undetectable HCV RNA at 24 weeks after the completion of the study treatment. The negative assessment was required to be the last one collected at or after week 36 (ie, on or after study Day 253) for the 16-week treatment group or at or after week 44 (ie, on or after study Day 309) for the 24-week treatment group.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Virological Response at The End of Study TreatmentWeek 16 (for 16-week treatment group); Week 24 (for 24-week treatment group)
Virological response was defined as the percentage of participants with undetectable HCV RNA at the completion of the study treatment. The negative assessment was required to be the last one collected in the Week 16 time window for the 16-week treatment group or in the Week 24 time window for the 24-week treatment group.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Virological Response 12 Weeks Post-TreatmentWeek 28 (for 16-week treatment group); Week 36 (for 24-week treatment group)
Virological response 12 weeks post-treatment was defined as the percentage of participants with undetectable HCV RNA 12 weeks after the completion of the study treatment . The negative assessment was required to be the last one collected in the week 28 time window for the 16- week treatment group or in the week 36 time window for the 24-week treatment group.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Up to Week 40 and Week 48
An adverse event was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that occurred during he course of the trial after study treatment had started. An adverse event was therefore any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Marked Laboratory AbnormalitiesUp to Week 40 and Week 48
Participants with changes in Hematocrit: Fraction 0.36 - 0.60 g/dL, Hemoglobin: 11.0 -20.0 g/dL, WBC 3.0 - 18.0 g/dL, Platelets 100 - 700 g/dL, Basophils 0.00 - 0.30 g/dL, Lymphocytes 1.00 - 6.30 g/dL, Monocytes 0.08 - 2.00 g/dL, Neutrophils 1.50 or more g/dL, Eosinophils 0.00 - 1.50 g/dL , PTT 0 - 50 seconds, Alkaline Phosphatase 0 - 190 and ASAT 0 - 50 U/L, ALAT 0 - 60 U/L, Gamma - GT 0 - 120 U/L, Total Protein 55 - 87 g/L ;Albumin 27.0 or more g/L, Total Bilirubin 0 - 34.2 μmol/L, BUN 0 - 14.3 mmol/L, Creatinine 0 - 154 μmol/L, Free T3, T4 5 - 40 pmol/L, TSH 0.0 - 10.0 mU/L, Cholesterol 0.0 - 8.3 mmol/L; Triglycerides 0.00 - 2.83 mmol/L, Chloride 95 - 115 mmol/L; Potassium 3.0 - 6.0 mmol/L; Sodium 130 - 150 mmol/L, miscellaneous: Calcium 2.00 - 2.90 mmol/L; Phosphate 0.75 - 1.60 mmol/L; Blood Glucose (Random) 2.80 - 11.10 mmol/L, Uric Acid 0 - 600 μmol/L, Proteinuria, Glycosuria, Hematuria (Qualitative 0 to 4+) 0 - 1 were analysed for the laboratory abnormality.
SecondaryParticipants With Marked Abnormal Vital SignsUp to Week 40 and Week 48Participants with changes in Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate were analysed abnormal vital signs.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Highest Triglyceride LevelUp to Week 40 and Week 48Participants with triglyceride level above normal (i.e. \< 200 mg/dL) were analysed.
