A Study of Pharmacokinetics, Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, of the Combination of Simeprevir (TMC435), Daclatasvir (BMS-790052), and Ribavirin (RBV) in Patients With Recurrent Chronic Hepatitis C Genotype 1b Infection After Orthotopic Liver Transplantation

Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate effect of steady-state (when the amount of drug administered (in a given time period is equal to the amount of drug eliminated in that same period) of simeprevir and daclatasvir on the steady-state pharmacokinetics (what a medication does to the body) of cyclosporine (applicable to Part 1 only) and tacrolimus when administered as a combinational regimen in post-orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) participants with recurrent hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b infection and effectiveness of a 24-week treatment regimen containing simeprevir, daclatasvir, and ribavirin (RBV) with respect to the proportion of HCV genotype 1b infected post-OLT participants achieving sustained virologic response 12 weeks after end of treatment.
