A Phase II, Randomized, Open-Label Clinical Trial to Study the Efficacy and Safety of the Combination Regimen of MK-5172 and MK-3682 With Either MK-8742 or MK-8408 in Subjects With Chronic HCV GT3, GT4, GT5, and GT6 Infection
This is a randomized, three-part, parallel-group, open-label trial of grazoprevir (MK-5172)
(100 mg) and MK-3682 (300 mg or 450 mg) with either elbasvir (MK-8742) (50 mg) or MK-8408
(60 mg), and with and without ribavirin (RBV), in treatment-naive (TN) or
treatment-experienced (TE) cirrhotic (C) or non-cirrhotic (NC) participants infected with
hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 3, GT4, GT5, or GT6. Part A will consist of 4 arms to
evaluate the safety of dose combinations. In Part B, participants will take 2 MK-3682B fixed
dose combination (FDC) tablets once daily (q.d.) by mouth, with or without twice-daily
(b.i.d.) RBV (200 mg capsules; weight-based dosing). Participants who relapse following
completion of therapy in Part A will be offered the option of retreatment with 16 weeks of
MK-3682B with RBV in Part C (data obtained from Part C will not be used in the analysis of
outcome measures).

In Part A, study therapy will be administered as separate products, each taken q.d. by
mouth. In Part B and Part C, participants will take 2 MK-3682B FDC tablets q.d. by mouth;
each MK-3682B FDC tablet contains grazoprevir 50 mg + MK-3682 225 mg + MK-8408 30 mg.

antiretroviral therapy (ART) and has no plans to initiate ART treatment while
participating in this study OR has well-controlled HIV on ART.
