Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - LDV/SOF
Treatment: Drugs - RBV
Treatment: Drugs - SOF/VEL
Treatment: Drugs - VOX

Experimental: LDV/SOF+RBV 24 Weeks (Cohort 1 Group 1) - Participants who previously received ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) plus ribavirin (RBV) for = 12 weeks without achieving sustained virologic response at 12 weeks following treatment (SVR12) will receive LDV/SOF+RBV for 24 weeks.

Experimental: LDV/SOF+RBV 12 Weeks (Cohort 1 Group 2) - Participants who previously received a sofosbuvir-based regimen without achieving SVR12 were initially enrolled to receive LDV/SOF+RBV for 12 weeks (excluding participants who previously received LDV/SOF+RBV for = 12 weeks). Participants who did not achieve sustained virologic response at 12 weeks were then moved to Cohort 1 Group 1.

Experimental: LDV/SOF 12 Weeks GT2 (Cohort 2 Group 1) - Participants with genotype 2 (GT2) HCV infection will receive LDV/SOF FDC for 12 weeks.

Experimental: LDV/SOF 8 Weeks GT2 (Cohort 2 Group 2) - Participants with GT2 HCV infection will receive LDV/SOF FDC for 8 weeks.

Experimental: LDV/SOF 12 Weeks GT1/GT2/GT4 (Cohort 3 Group 1) - Participants with genotypes 1 (GT1), 2 (GT2), or 4 (GT4) HCV infection and extrahepatic manifestations of chronic HCV infection will receive LDV/SOF FDC for 12 weeks.

Experimental: LDV/SOF+RBV 12 Weeks GT3 (Cohort 3 Group 2) - Participants with genotype 3 (GT3) HCV infection and extrahepatic manifestations of chronic HCV infection will receive LDV/SOF FDC plus RBV for 12 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 6 Weeks GT1 (Cohort 4) - Treatment-naive participants with GT1 HCV infection without cirrhosis will receive VOX only on Day 1 followed by sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) + voxilaprevir (VOX) for 6 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 4 Weeks GT1 (Cohort 5 Group 1) - Treatment-naive participants with GT1 HCV infection without cirrhosis will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 4 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 6 Weeks GT1 (Cohort 5 Group 2) - Treatment-naive participants with GT1 HCV infection with cirrhosis will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 6 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 6 Weeks GT3 (Cohort 5 Group 3) - Treatment-naive participants with GT3 HCV infection with cirrhosis will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 6 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 8 Weeks GT1 (Cohort 5 Group 4) - Treatment-experienced participants with GT1 HCV infection with cirrhosis who were previously treated with pegylated interferon (Peg-IFN)+RBV will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 6 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 8 Weeks GT3 (Cohort 5 Group 5) - Treatment-experienced participants with GT3 HCV infection with cirrhosis who were previously treated with Peg-IFN+RBV will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 6 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 8 Weeks GT1 (Cohort 5 Group 6) - Treatment-experienced participants with GT1 HCV infection with or without cirrhosis who were previously treated with non-structural protein (NS3/4A) protease inhibitor (PI) will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 6 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 6 Weeks GT1 (Cohort 5 Group 7) - Treatment-experienced participants with GT1 HCV infection with or without cirrhosis who were previously treated with direct-acting antivirals (DAA) will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 6 weeks.

Experimental: SOF/VEL+VOX 8 Weeks GT3 (Cohort 5 Group 8) - Treatment-experienced participants with GT3 HCV infection with or without cirrhosis who were previously treated with DAA will receive SOF/VEL+VOX for 8 weeks.
