The main purpose of the study is to determine the antiviral efficacy and evaluate the safety and tolerability of sofosbuvir/ velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) and sofosbuvir/ velpatasvir/ voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) used to treat individuals with chronic hepatitis C virus infection in Rwanda adults.
This is an open-label single-arm study that will examine the antiviral efficacy, safety and tolerability of 12 weeks daily therapy with fixed dose combination (FDC) of SOF/VEL and SOF/VEL/VOX administered respectively in HCV-infected treatment-naïve adult participants and in HCV-infected individuals with a history of virologic failure to SOF/LDV or other DAA-containing regimen. A total of 100 participants will be enrolled in this portion of the SHARED study, labelled the "SHARED 3 study": 60 treatment-naïve participants and 40 individuals with history of virologic failure to SOF/LDV or other DAA-containing regimen
