Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Genotype 2 treatment-naive
Treatment-naive (TN) participants with HIV-1 and genotype 2 HCV coinfection will receive sofosbuvir plus RBV for 12 weeks.
Drug: Sofosbuvir
Sofosbuvir 400 mg tablet administered orally once daily

Drug: RBV
Ribavirin (RBV) tablets administered orally in a divided daily dose according to package insert weight-based dosing recommendations (< 75kg = 1000 mg and ≥ 75 kg = 1200 mg)

Experimental: Genotype 2/3 treatment-experienced
Treatment-experienced (TE) participants with HIV-1 and genotype 2 or 3 HCV co-infection will receive sofosbuvir plus RBV for 24 weeks.
Drug: Sofosbuvir
Sofosbuvir 400 mg tablet administered orally once daily
Other Names:
  • Sovaldi®

  • PSI-7977

Drug: RBV
Ribavirin (RBV) tablets administered orally in a divided daily dose according to package insert weight-based dosing recommendations (< 75kg = 1000 mg and ≥ 75 kg = 1200 mg)

Experimental: Genotype 1/3/4 treatment-naive
Treatment naive (TN) participants with HIV-1 and genotype 1, 3, or 4 HCV co-infection will receive sofosbuvir plus RBV for 24 weeks.
Drug: Sofosbuvir
Sofosbuvir 400 mg tablet administered orally once daily
Other Names:
  • Sovaldi®
  • GS-7977
  • PSI-7977

Drug: RBV
Ribavirin (RBV) tablets administered orally in a divided daily dose according to package insert weight-based dosing recommendations (< 75kg = 1000 mg and ≥ 75 kg = 1200 mg)




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at 12 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12) [ Time Frame: Posttreatment Week 12 ]
    SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA < the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ, ie, < 25 IU/mL) 12 weeks following the last dose of study drug.

  2. Incidence of Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Discontinuation of Study Drug(s) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 weeks ]
    The percentage of participants permanently discontinuing any study drug due to an adverse event was summarized.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response at 4 and 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4 and SVR24) [ Time Frame: Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24 ]
    SVR4 and SVR24 were defined as HCV RNA < the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) 4 weeks and 24 weeks following the last dose of study drug, respectively.

  2. HCV RNA Change From Baseline at Week 1 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 1 ]
  3. HCV RNA Change From Baseline at Week 2 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 2 ]
  4. HCV RNA Change From Baseline at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 4 ]
  5. HCV RNA Change From Baseline at Week 6 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 6 ]
  6. HCV RNA Change From Baseline at Week 8 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 8 ]
  7. Percentage of Participants Experiencing Virologic Failure [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Posttreatment Week 24 ]

    On-treatment virologic failure was defined as either:

    • Virologic breakthrough (confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ while on treatment), or
    • Rebound (confirmed > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment), or
    • Nonresponse (HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment).

    Virologic relapse was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period, having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at last on-treatment visit."
