INTRODUCTION
1.1.
Background
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a global health challenge with estimates ranging up to 
150 million individuals infected worldwide {28346}. In the United States (US), approximately 
2.7 million people have chronic HCV infection {28338} and HCV infection causes over 
15,000 deaths each year {20446}, although under-reporting of HCV infection on death 
certificates may contribute to as much as a 5-fold underestimation of the actual number of deaths 
{28339}. Successful treatment of chronic HCV infection reduces the need for liver transplant, the 
incidence of HCC and overall mortality {25891}. Thus, the public health benefit of safe and 
effective HCV treatment regimens is high.
The development of sofosbuvir (Sovaldi®, SOF), a nucleotide analog HCV NS5B polymerase 
inhibitor, represents a major advance in the treatment of HCV as SOF-based regimens are shorter 
in duration, better tolerated, and result in higher SVR rates than prior therapies. SOF is currently 
approved in the US for the treatment of genotype (GT) 1, 2, 3 and 4 HCV infection and in the 
European Union for GT1-6 with different regimens and durations dependent on the HCV 
genotype {27503}.The next wave of therapies for the treatment of HCV includes combinations of 
direct acting antivirals (DAAs) including SOF that will obviate the need for administration of 
Peg-IFN and RBV. The first of these treatments, a fixed dose combination (FDC) of SOF and the 
HCV nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) inhibitor ledipasvir (LDV), has been approved in the US 
and Europe. The Phase 3 studies GS-US-337-0102 (ION 1), GS-US-337-0109 (ION 2), and 
GS-US-337-0108 (ION 3) demonstrated that treatment with LDV/SOF with or without RBV for 
8, 12 or 24 weeks resulted in high SVR12 rates in subjects with GT1 HCV infection {28583}, 
{28585}, {28587}.
Most current HCV drug development effort focuses on GT1 HCV infection as this is the most 
prevalent HCV genotype in developed countries {32174}. However, over half of all HCV 
infections are non-GT1: estimates from 2 recent meta-analyses indicate GT3 HCV is the next 
most common accounting for 22-30% of infections, while GT2 and GT4 each account for 
approximately 8 to 13%, GT6 for approximately 2 to 5%, and GT5 for approximately 1% of 
HCV infections worldwide. The availability of a well-tolerated, all oral, short duration therapy 
that is effective across all HCV genotypes would be a major advance for the treatment of HCV 
infection globally, particularly in regions where HCV genotyping is not part of routine medical 
care for HCV infection.
Although some individualization of care will be necessary, particularly for patients with 
advanced disease, the development of a pangenotypic regimen of short-duration that may not 
require HCV genotyping, response guided therapy, or intensive safety monitoring due to use of 
Peg-IFN or RBV will enable more patients to be treated.

Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir Fixed Dose Combination
SOF/ velpatasvir (VEL) fixed-dose combination (SOF/VEL FDC) combines two HCV specific 
direct acting antivirals (DAAs) into a single tablet for the treatment of chronic HCV infection.
SOF is a nucleotide analog HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitor currently approved in the US and 
other regions for the treatment of HCV infection as a component of an antiviral treatment 
regimen. VEL (formerly known as GS-5816) is a HCV NS5A inhibitor that has demonstrated 
activity against HCV genotypes 1, 2, 3 and 4 HCV in a 3-day monotherapy study. Phase 2 
studies of SOF +VEL administered as single agents have demonstrated that the combination of 
SOF 400 mg and VEL100 mg administered for 12 weeks is well tolerated and results in high 
SVR rates across a broad range of HCV genotypes. The SOF/VEL FDC (400 mg/100 mg) is a 
co-formulation of SOF 400 mg and VEL 100 mg for Phase 3 evaluation that has demonstrated 
similar exposure of each component compared to co-administration of the single agents.  
The development of SOF/VEL may have a major impact on the global prevalence and burden of 
HCV as it may represent a simple, well tolerated, highly efficacious pangenotypic treatment for 
all HCV infected patients.

Study GS-US-281-1058
GS-US-281-1058 is an open-label, Phase 1, multiple-dose drug-drug interaction study in healthy 
female subjects of childbearing age evaluating the effect of VEL on the pharmacokinetics of a 
representative hormonal contraceptive medication, norgestimate/ethinyl estradiol (NGM/EE, 
OC). Following screening, eligible subjects were enrolled in a lead-in period (Part A) of 28 days 
during which they completed dosing with the hormonal contraceptive (OC) prior to baseline 
assessments and initiation of Cycle 1 (Part B). Subjects with a documented history of taking OC 
for at least 1 menstrual cycle could be enrolled directly into Cycle 1. The PK, safety, and 
tolerability of OC and OC + VEL were assessed in Part B of the study, which consisted of 
2 cycles: subjects received OC alone during Cycle 1, and OC plus VEL 100 mg once daily 
during days 8-14 of Cycle 2. Fifteen subjects were enrolled, and 13 completed the study. 
Two subjects were discontinued from the study prior to initiation of Cycle 2 (OC+VEL) for 
laboratory abnormalities.

Table 1-1 presents the steady-state PK parameters and statistical comparisons of NGM 
metabolites norelgestromin (NGMN) and norgestrel (NG) and EE following administration alone 
or in combination with VEL. Steady-state VEL PK parameters were also assessed. Norgestimate 
was not quantifiable for all subjects at most time points. Similar systemic exposure of NGMN 
and NG were achieved following NGM/EE administration with VEL relative to administration of 
NGM/EE alone. A modest increase in EE Cmax was observed when administered with VEL with 
no change in overall exposure (AUC) or Ctau. The magnitude of increase in EE Cmax when 
administered with VEL is similar to that observed with the concomitant administration of other 
drugs such as voriconazole and etravirine, which did not warrant dose adjustment {13886}, 
{24911}. VEL exposures were consistent with historical data (Studies GS-US-281-0115, 
GS-US-342-0104).

within the expected range for the ovulatory phase {25218}. These results are consistent with a 
possible decrease in serum LH and FSH by hormonal contraceptives and absence of ovulation, as 
assessed by very low progesterone values on cycle Day 21.

Based on these results, no loss in contraceptive efficacy is expected upon administration of 
combined oral contraceptives containing norgestimate/ethinyl estradiol with VEL. 
Study GS-US-334-0146 previously demonstrated that the use of SOF with contraceptives 
(e.g., norgestimate/ethinyl estradiol) is permitted. Accordingly, the use of hormonal 
contraceptives with VEL as a single agent or as part of SOF/VEL FDC is permitted. 
1.3.
Rationale for This Study
This Phase 3 study has been designed as a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study 
evaluating SOF/VEL for 12 weeks. Approximately 120 subjects will be enrolled. The population 
of the study will be subjects with chronic HCV infection of any genotype, with up to 
approximately 20% having prior treatment failure with an interferon-based regimen and up to 
approximately 20% having evidence of compensated cirrhosis at screening.
In Russia, the prevalence of HCV is estimated to be 4.1% {32174}, or approximately 4.9 million 
adults positive for antibody to-HCV. Although GT1 is the most common genotype in Russia, 
with a prevalence estimated at 55%, GT3 accounts for approximately 35% and GT2 for 
approximately 8% of infections {32174}. Anti-HCV prevalence is lower in Sweden (0.7% of 
adults) and the most common genotypes are similar to Russia: 45% GT1, 34% GT3, 19% GT2, 
and 2% GT4 {32174}. A single pangenotypic regimen would be of benefit for these diverse HCV 
populations. 
Therapies which are not administered by injection nor associated with IFN-related or 
RBV-related adverse events are likely to improve patient treatment adherence and support high 
rates of viral cure. It is also likely that agents with favorable safety profiles which do not require 
frequent dose modification nor intensive monitoring of clinical adverse events and laboratory 
abnormalities will facilitate patient management.

Phase 2 evaluation of SOF + VEL demonstrated that co-administration of the single agents for 
8 or 12 weeks was well tolerated and resulted in high SVR rates across a broad range of HCV 
genotypes. In the Phase 2 study GS-US-342-0102, administration of SOF 400mg + VEL 100mg 
for 12 weeks to treatment-naïve subjects without cirrhosis with genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 HCV 
infection resulted in SVR12 rate of 100% (28/28), 100% (10/10), 93% (25/27), 86% (6/7), and 
100% (5/5), respectively. In addition, one treatment naïve subject with genotype 5 HCV 
infection administered SOF +VEL 25mg for 12 weeks achieved SVR12. The GS-US-342-0109 
study evaluated SOF + VEL with and without RBV in populations of patients considered more 
difficult to cure, including subjects who had failed a prior interferon based regimen and those 
with cirrhosis. Administration of SOF 400mg + VEL 100 mg for 12 weeks resulted in SVR12 
rates of 88% (23/26) and 100% (27/27) in treatment experienced subjects with genotype 3 HCV 
infection with and without cirrhosis, respectively. Administration of SOF 400mg + VEL 100mg 
for 12 weeks resulted in an SVR4 rates of 100% (27/27) in subjects with genotype 1 HCV 
infection who had failed prior treatment with a protease inhibitor with Peg-IFN/RBV. Seven of 
these 27 subjects had cirrhosis. 
The Phase 2 data suggest that SOF +VEL 100mg has the potential to cure HCV infected patients 
across a broad range of HCV genotypes, when administered for 12 weeks without RBV and 
regardless of prior treatment experience or cirrhosis status. The co-formulation of SOF/VEL
(400 mg/100 mg) adds to the simplicity of the regimen in allowing for a once daily pill. Data 
from this study will support the development of a well-tolerated, short duration, RBV-free 
regimen for all genotypes of HCV infection that has the potential to make an impact on the 
global prevalence and burden of HCV infection.
In particular, the availability of a single, pangenotypic regimen is anticipated to be especially 
beneficial in Russia where genotype diversity is high and genotyping may not be readily 
available or routinely done. Access to treatment for patients with HCV infection would be 
expanded as a result.  
1.4.
Rationale for Dose Selection
Sofosbuvir 400 mg, once daily, when dosed in combination with RBV with or without Peg-IFN
has demonstrated broad genotypic efficacy and favorable safety profile in over
1700 HCV-infected subjects across multiple patient populations in Phase 2 and 3 trials. This 
dose is the approved marketed dose of sofosbuvir for the treatment of HCV-infection and as 
such, has been selected for co-formulation with VEL into a fixed-dose combination tablet.
VEL 100 mg has been administered in combination with SOF 400 mg for 12 weeks to 
237 HCV-infected subjects in Phase 2 studies. VEL 100 mg was selected for co-formulation with 
SOF and evaluation in this study based on the Phase 2 safety, PK and antiviral activity 
(studies GS-US-342-0102, GS-US-342-0109, and GS-US-337-0122 [Cohort 4]). The Phase 1 
study GS-US-281-0102 established the anti-HCV activity of VEL and indicated that the 
exposures achieved following administration of doses > 25 mg provide at least 80% of maximal 
antiviral response in all HCV genotypes.

The favorable safety and efficacy profiles of SOF 400 mg and VEL 100 mg support further 
evaluation of this combination in clinical development.
1.5.
Risk/Benefit Assessment for the Study
This study will provide information of the safety and efficacy of SOF/VEL, a potent HCV 
nucleotide inhibitor and a potent HCV NS5A inhibitor. This combination has the potential to be 
a once-daily pangenotypic regimen for the treatment of chronic HCV infection. 
The potential benefits of SOF/VEL over the current standard of care for the treatment of chronic 
HCV are:

A once-daily, single tablet, single duration, pangenotypic therapy for HCV infection could 
simplify treatment algorithms and impact worldwide disease prevalence

A reduction in the AEs currently associated with the use of Peg-IFN and RBV

A short duration of therapy which should lead to better outcomes through improved 
adherence
The safety profile of SOF in clinical studies includes over 1700 chronic HCV-infected subjects 
that have been administered 12 weeks of SOF and RBV+/-Peg-IFN.  No clinical safety issues 
specifically related to SOF have been identified to date. 
The safety profile of SOF/VEL has not been established. The safety profile of SOF + VEL 25mg 
or VEL 100mg administered for 8 or 12 weeks has been established in over 800 subjects in 
Phase 2 studies. The safety profile of the proposed therapeutic regimen of SOF 400mg and VEL
100mg administered for 12 weeks has been established in 237 subjects enrolled in Phase 2 
studies. No clinical safety issues specifically related to VEL or SOF + VEL have been identified 
to date. No clinical safety issues specifically related to the NS5A inhibitor class including 
daclatasvir (DCV) and LDV have been identified to date {28583}, {28585}, {28587}.
During the conduct of the study, the sponsor will perform ongoing safety review.
In summary, if high rates of SVR can be obtained with a short, IFN-free, RBV-free, 
pangenotypic regimen, the anticipated improvements in safety and tolerability would offer a 
favourable risk-benefit determination for patients with chronic HCV infection and enhance 
access to treatment.

ADVERSE EVENTS 
8.1.
Definitions of Adverse Events, Adverse Reactions, and Serious Adverse 
Events
8.1.1.
Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study subject 
administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to 
the medicinal product. AEs may also include pre- or post-treatment complications that occur as a 
result of protocol specified procedures, overdose, drug abuse/misuse reports, or occupational 
exposure. Preexisting events that increase in severity or change in nature during or as a 
consequence of participation in the clinical study will also be considered AEs.
An AE does not include the following:

Medical or surgical procedures such as surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, and transfusion.
The condition that led to the procedure may be an adverse event and must be reported.

Pre-existing diseases, conditions, or laboratory abnormalities present or detected before the 
screening visit that do not worsen

Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (e.g., hospitalization for 
elective surgery, social and/or convenience admissions)

Overdose without clinical sequelae (see Section 8.5)

Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date 
before the consent form is signed and not related to a protocol-associated procedure is not an 
AE. It is considered to be pre-existing and should be documented on the medical history 
eCRF.
8.1.2.
Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following:

Death

Life-threatening (Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.)

In-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

SOF/VEL FDC
Protocol GS-US-342-1522
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Original
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 42
17 July 2015

A congenital anomaly/birth defect

A medically important event or reaction: such events may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the subject or may 
require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs. Medical and 
scientific judgment must be exercised to determine whether such an event is a reportable 
under expedited reporting rules. Examples of medically important events include intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; and development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse. For the avoidance of doubt, infections resulting from contaminated medicinal 
product will be considered a medically important event and subject to expedited reporting 
requirements.
8.1.3.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance are not recorded as AEs or SAEs. 
However, laboratory abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) that 
require medical or surgical intervention or lead to IMP interruption, modification, or 
discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, 
laboratory or other abnormal assessments (eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are 
associated with signs and/or symptoms must be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the 
definition of an AE or SAE as described in Sections 8.1.1 and 8.1.2. If the laboratory 
abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the syndrome or diagnosis (eg, anemia), not the 
laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
For specific information on handling of clinical laboratory abnormalities in this study, please 
refer to Section 8.1.3.
8.2.
Assessment of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing AEs and SAEs for 
causality and severity, and for final review and confirmation of accuracy of event information 
and assessments.
8.2.1.
Assessment of Causality for Study Drugs and Procedures
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing the relationship to IMP
therapy using clinical judgment and the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the IMP. For SAEs, an 
alternative causality must be provided (eg, pre-existing condition, underlying disease, 
intercurrent illness, or concomitant medication).

Yes: There is reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the 
investigational medicinal product.

It should be emphasized that ineffective treatment should not be considered as causally related in 
the context of adverse event reporting. 
The relationship to study procedures (eg, invasive procedures such as venipuncture or biopsy) 
should be assessed using the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study procedure.

Yes: The adverse event occurred as a result of protocol procedures, (eg., venipuncture)
8.2.2.
Assessment of Severity
The severity grading of AEs will be assessed as Grade 1, 2, 3, or 4 using the GSI Grading Scale 
for Severity of Adverse Events and Laboratory Abnormalities (Appendix 3). For AEs associated 
with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the clinical severity in 
the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement with the grading 
of the laboratory abnormality.
8.3.
Investigator Requirements and Instructions for Reporting Adverse Events 
and Serious Adverse Events to Gilead 
Requirements for collection prior to study drug initiation:
After informed consent, but prior to initiation of study medication, the following types of events 
should be reported on the case report form (eCRF): all SAEs and adverse events related to 
protocol-mandated procedures.
Adverse Events
Following initiation of study medication, all AEs, regardless of cause or relationship, pregnancy 
and other special situation reports, until 4 weeks after last administration of study drug must be 
collected / reported to the eCRF database as instructed.
All AEs should be followed up until resolution or until the adverse event is stable, if possible. 
Gilead Sciences may request that certain AEs be followed beyond the protocol defined follow up 
period.
Serious Adverse Events
All SAEs, regardless of cause or relationship, that occurs after the subject first consents to 
participate in the study (ie, signing the informed consent) and throughout the duration of the 
study, including the protocol-required post treatment follow-up period, must be reported to the 
eCRF database and Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) as instructed. This also 
includes any SAEs resulting from protocol-associated procedures performed after informed 
consent is signed.
Any SAEs and deaths that occur after the post treatment follow-up visit and within 30 days of 
the last dose of study drug, regardless of causality, should also be reported.

Investigators are not obligated to actively seek SAEs after the protocol defined follow up period
however, if the investigator learns of any SAEs that occur after study participation has concluded 
and the event is deemed relevant to the use of IMP, he/she should promptly document and report 
the event to Gilead DSPH.

All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the eCRF database within the timelines outlined in the
eCRF completion guideline. 
Electronic Serious Adverse Event (eSAE) Reporting Process

Site personnel record all SAE data in the eCRF database and from there transmit the SAE 
information to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event. 
Detailed instructions can be found in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If for any reason it is not possible to record the SAE information electronically, ie, the eCRF 
database is not functioning, record the SAE on the paper serious adverse event reporting 
form and submit within 24 hours to:
Gilead DSPH
Email:
Safety_FC@gilead.com
Fax:
+1 650-522-5477

As soon as it is possible to do so, any SAE reported via paper must be transcribed into the 
eCRF Database according to instructions in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If an SAE has been reported via a paper form because the eCRF database has been locked, no 
further action is necessary.

For fatal or life-threatening events, copies of hospital case reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents are also to be submitted by e-mail or fax when requested and applicable. 
Transmission of such documents should occur without personal subject identification, 
maintaining the traceability of a document to the subject identifiers.

Additional information may be requested to ensure the timely completion of accurate safety 
reports.

Any medications necessary for treatment of the SAE must be recorded onto the concomitant 
medication section of the subject’s eCRF and the event description section of the SAE form.
8.4.
Gilead Reporting Requirements
Depending on relevant local legislation or regulations, including the applicable US FDA Code of 
Federal Regulations, the EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) and relevant updates, and 
other country-specific legislation or regulations, Gilead may be required to expedite to 
worldwide regulatory agencies reports of SAEs, serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs), or 
suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs). In accordance with the EU Clinical

Trials Directive (2001/20/EC), Gilead or a specified designee will notify worldwide regulatory 
agencies and the relevant IEC in concerned Member States of applicable SUSARs as outlined in 
current regulations.
Assessment of expectedness for SAEs will be determined by Gilead using reference safety 
information specified in the investigator’s brochure or relevant local label as applicable. 
All investigators will receive a safety letter notifying them of relevant SUSAR reports associated 
with any study IMP. The investigator should notify the IRB or IEC of SUSAR reports as soon as 
is practical, where this is required by local regulatory agencies, and in accordance with the local 
institutional policy. 
8.5.
Special Situations Reports
8.5.1.
Definitions of Special Situations
Special situation reports include all reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, overdose, reports 
of adverse events associated with product complaints, and pregnancy reports regardless of an 
associated AE.  
Medication error is any unintentional error in the prescribing, dispensing, or administration of a 
medicinal product while in the control of the health care provider, subject, or consumer.
Abuse is defined as persistent or sporadic intentional excessive use of a medicinal product by a 
subject.
Misuse is defined as any intentional and inappropriate use of a medicinal product that is not in 
accordance with the protocol instructions or the local prescribing information.
An overdose is defined as an accidental or intentional administration of a quantity of a medicinal 
product given per administration or cumulatively which is above the maximum recommended 
dose as per protocol or in the product labelling (as it applies to the daily dose of the subject in 
question). In cases of a discrepancy in drug accountability, overdose will be established only 
when it is clear that the subject has taken the excess dose(s). Overdose cannot be established 
when the subject cannot account for the discrepancy except in cases in which the investigator has 
reason to suspect that the subject has taken the additional dose(s).
Product complaint is defined as complaints arising from potential deviations in the manufacture, 
packaging, or distribution of the medicinal product.  
8.5.2.
Instructions for Reporting Special Situations
8.5.2.1.
Instructions for Reporting Pregnancies
The investigator should report pregnancies in female study subjects that are identified after 
initiation of study medication and throughout the study, including the post study drug follow-up 
period, to the Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy report form within 24 hours of becoming aware 
of the pregnancy.

Refer to Section 8.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of pregnancy reporting.
The pregnancy itself is not considered an AE nor is an induced elective abortion to terminate a 
pregnancy without medical reasons.
Any premature termination of pregnancy (eg, a spontaneous abortion, an induced therapeutic 
abortion due to complications or other medical reasons) must be reported within 24 hours as an 
SAE. The underlying medical reason for this procedure should be recorded as the AE term.
A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as described in 
Sections 8.3. Furthermore, any SAE occurring as an adverse pregnancy outcome post study must 
be reported to Gilead DSPH.
The subject should receive appropriate monitoring and care until the conclusion of the 
pregnancy. The outcome should be reported to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy outcome report 
form. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been completed, the outcome should 
be reported directly to Gilead DSPH. Gilead DSPH contact information is as follows: 
Email: Safety_FC@gilead.com and Fax: +1 (650) 522-5477.
Pregnancies of female partners of male study subjects exposed to Gilead or other study drugs 
must also be reported and relevant information should be submitted to Gilead DSPH the 
pregnancy and pregnancy outcome forms within 24 hours. Monitoring of the subject should 
continue until the conclusion of the pregnancy. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study 
has been completed, the outcome should be reported directly to Gilead DSPH, fax number 
+1 650 522-5477 or email Safety_FC@gilead.com.
Refer to Appendix 4 for Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing Potential, 
and Contraceptive Requirements.
8.5.2.2.
Reporting Other Special Situations
All other special situation reports must be reported on the special situations report form and 
forwarded to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator becoming aware of the situation. 
These reports must consist of situations that involve study IMP and/or Gilead concomitant 
medications, but do not apply to non-Gilead concomitant medications.
Special situations involving non-Gilead concomitant medications do not need to be reported on 
the special situations report form; however, for special situations that result in AEs due to a 
non-Gilead concomitant medication, the AE should be reported on the AE form. 
Any inappropriate use of concomitant medications prohibited by this protocol should not be 
reported as “misuse,” but may be more appropriately documented as a protocol deviation.

Analysis Conventions 
Final 
Original 
All individual subject data will be listed as measured. All statistical summaries and analyses will 
be perfonned using SAS® software (SAS Institute, Cruy, North Cru·olina, USA). 
The study dmg in this study is SOFNEL. Last dose of study dmg refers to the last dose of any of 
the study dtugs in a treatment group and will be used in the definition of treatment-emergent AEs 
and laborat01y abnonnalities as well as the efficacy endpoints of SVR at vru·ious post-treatment 
time points. 
9.2.1. 
Analysis Sets 
9.2.1.1. 
Efficacy 
The analysis set for antiviral activity analyses will be the F AS which include all em olled subjects 
who took at least 1 dose of study dt11g. 
9.2.1.2. 
Safety 
The Safety Analysis Set will include all subjects who took at least 1 dose of study dtug. 
Treatment-emergent data will be analyzed and defmed as data collected from the first dose of 
study dtug through the date of last dose of study dt11g plus 30 days. 
9.3. 
Data Handling Conventions 
Missing data can have an impact upon the inte1p retation of the trial data. Other than the 
endpoints discussed below, values for missing data will not be imputed. 
For analyses of categorical HCV RNA data, missing posttreatment HCV RNA data will have the 
missing data imputed. Missing on-treatment HCV RNA will have the missing data imputed up to 
the time of the last dose. 
If a data point is missing and is preceded and followed in time by values that ru·e "< LLOQ tru·get 
not detected (TND)", then the missing data point will be set to"< LLOQ TND". If a data point is 
missing and preceded and followed by values that are"< LLOQ detected", or preceded by 
"< LLOQ detected" and followed by "< LLOQ TND", or preceded by"< LLOQ TND" and 
followed by"< LLOQ detected", then the missing value will be set to"< LLOQ detected". In 
these situations the data point will be tenned a bracketed success; othe1wise, the data point will 
be te1m ed a bracketed failure (ie, :::: LLOQ detected). If a data point is missing and is not

bracketed, the missing data point will also be termed a failure (ie, ≥LLOQ detected) except for 
SVR24, which will be imputed according to SVR12 status. Success for SVR12 who have no 
further HCV RNA measurements collected will be counted as a success for SVR24 due to the 
high correlation between these 2 endpoints.
Where appropriate, safety data for subjects that did not complete the study will be included in 
summary statistics. For example,

If a subject received study medication, the subject will be included in a summary of adverse 
events according to the treatment received; otherwise, if the subject is not dosed then they 
will be excluded from the summary.

If safety laboratory results for a subject are missing for any reason at a time point, the subject 
will be excluded from the calculation of summary statistics for that time point. If the subject 
is missing a pre-dose value, then the subject will be excluded from the calculation of 
summary statistics for the pre-dose value and the change from pre-dose values.
Values for missing safety laboratory data will not be imputed; however, a missing Day 1 result 
will be replaced with a screening result, if available. If no pre-treatment laboratory value is 
available, the Day 1 value will be assumed to be normal (ie, no grade [Grade 0]) for the summary 
of graded laboratory abnormalities.
Values for missing vital signs data will not be imputed; however, a missing Day 1 result will be 
replaced with a screening result, if available.
HCV RNA values below the LLOQ for the assay will be set to the lower limit minus 1 for 
calculation of summary statistics for the actual HCV RNA values and the change from Day 1 
values by study visit. The reported values will be provided in the HCV RNA listing.
For selected analyses of early time point data, HCV RNA data (IU/mL) may be transformed to 
the logarithmic (base 10) scale (log10 IU/mL).
9.4.
Demographic Data and Baseline Characteristics
Demographic and baseline measurements will be summarized using standard descriptive 
methods.
Demographic summaries will include sex, self-identified race/ethnicity, and age.
Baseline data will include body mass index, HCV RNA level (log10 IU/mL), HCV genotype, 
IL28B genotype, and additional endpoints as necessary.

10.1.
Investigator Responsibilities
10.1.1.
Good Clinical Practice
The investigator will ensure that this study is conducted in accordance with the principles of the 
Declaration of Helsinki (as amended in Edinburgh, Tokyo, Venice, Hong Kong, and 
South Africa), International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines, or with the laws and 
regulations of the country in which the research is conducted, whichever affords the greater 
protection to the study subject. These standards are consistent with the European Union Clinical 
Trials Directive 2001/20/EC and Good Clinical Practice Directive 2005/28/EC.
The investigator and all applicable subinvestigators will comply with 21 CFR, Part 54, 1998, 
providing documentation of their financial interest or arrangements with Gilead, or proprietary 
interests in the investigational drug under study. This documentation must be provided prior to 
the investigator’s (and any subinvestigator’s) participation in the study. The investigator and 
subinvestigator agree to notify Gilead of any change in reportable interests during the study and 
for 1 year following completion of the study. Study completion is defined as the date when the 
last subject completes the protocol-defined activities.
10.1.2.
Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) 
Review and Approval
The investigator (or sponsor as appropriate according to local regulations) will submit this 
protocol, informed consent form, and any accompanying material to be provided to the subject 
(such as advertisements, subject information sheets, or descriptions of the study used to obtain 
informed consent) to an IRB/IEC. The investigator will not begin any study subject activities 
until approval from the IRB/IEC has been documented and provided as a letter to the 
investigator.
Before implementation, the investigator will submit to and receive documented approval from 
the IRB/IEC any modifications made to the protocol or any accompanying material to be 
provided to the subject after initial IRB/IEC approval, with the exception of those necessary to 
reduce immediate risk to study subjects.
10.1.3.
Informed Consent
The investigator is responsible for obtaining written informed consent from each individual 
participating in this study after adequate explanation of the aims, methods, objectives, and 
potential hazards of the study and before undertaking any study-related procedures. The 
investigator must use the most current IRB- or IEC-approved consent form for documenting 
written informed consent. Each informed consent (or assent as applicable) will be appropriately 
signed and dated by the subject or the subject’s legally authorized representative and the person 
conducting the consent discussion, and also by an impartial witness if required by IRB/IEC/local 
requirements.

The pharmacogenomics consent form will inform subjects about pharmacogenomic testing and 
sample retention, and their right to receive clinically relevant pharmacogenomic analysis results.
10.1.4.
Confidentiality
The investigator must assure that subjects’ anonymity will be strictly maintained and that their 
identities are protected from unauthorized parties. Only subject initials, date of birth, another 
unique identifier (as allowed by local law) and an identification code will be recorded on any 
form or biological sample submitted to the Sponsor, IRB and IEC or laboratory. Laboratory 
specimens must be labeled in such a way as to protect subject identity while allowing the results 
to be recorded to the proper subject. NOTE: The investigator must keep a screening log showing 
codes, names, and addresses for all subjects screened and for all subjects enrolled in the trial.
Subject data will be processed in accordance with all applicable regulations.
The investigator agrees that all information received from Gilead, including but not limited to the 
investigator brochure, this protocol, CRF/eCRF, the IMP, and any other study information, 
remain the sole and exclusive property of Gilead during the conduct of the study and thereafter. 
This information is not to be disclosed to any third party (except employees or agents directly 
involved in the conduct of the study or as required by law) without prior written consent from 
Gilead. The investigator further agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent the 
disclosure by any employee or agent of the study site to any third party or otherwise into the 
public domain.
10.1.5.
Study Files and Retention of Records
The investigator must maintain adequate and accurate records to enable the conduct of the study 
to be fully documented and the study data to be subsequently verified. These documents should 
be classified into at least the following two categories: (1) investigator’s study file, and 
(2) subject clinical source documents.
The investigator’s study file will contain the protocol/amendments, CRF and query forms, IRB 
and IEC and governmental approval with correspondence, informed consent, drug records, staff 
curriculum vitae and authorization forms, and other appropriate documents and correspondence.
The required source data should include sequential notes containing at least the following 
information for each subject:

Subject identification (name, date of birth, gender);

Documentation that subject meets eligibility criteria, ie, history, physical examination, and 
confirmation of diagnosis (to support inclusion and exclusion criteria);

Documentation of the reason(s) a consented subject is not enrolled

Participation in study (including study number);


Study discussed and date of informed consent;

Dates of all visits;

Documentation that protocol specific procedures were performed;

Results of efficacy parameters, as required by the protocol;

Start and end date (including dose regimen) of IMP, including dates of dispensing and return;

Record of all adverse events and other safety parameters (start and end date, and including 
causality and severity);

Concomitant medication (including start and end date, dose if relevant; dose changes);

Date of study completion and reason for early discontinuation, if it occurs.
All clinical study documents must be retained by the investigator until at least 2 years or 
according to local laws, whichever is longer, after the last approval of a marketing application in 
an ICH region (ie, United States, Europe, or Japan) and until there are no pending or planned 
marketing applications in an ICH region; or, if no application is filed or if the application is not 
approved for such indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and regulatory 
authorities have been notified. Investigators may be required to retain documents longer if 
specified by regulatory requirements, by local regulations, or by an agreement with Gilead. The 
investigator must notify Gilead before destroying any clinical study records.
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, Gilead must be notified in advance.
If the investigator cannot provide for this archiving requirement at the study site for any or all of 
the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and Gilead to store 
these records securely away from the site so that they can be returned sealed to the investigator 
in case of an inspection. When source documents are required for the continued care of the 
subject, appropriate copies should be made for storage away from the site.
10.1.6.
Case Report Forms
For each subject consented, an eCRF will be completed by an authorized study staff member 
whose training for this function is documented according to study procedures. eCRF should be 
completed on the day of the subject visit to enable the sponsor to perform central monitoring of 
safety data.  The Eligibility Criteria eCRF should be completed only after all data related to 
eligibility have been received.  Subsequent to data entry, a study monitor will perform source 
data verification within the EDC system. Original entries as well as any changes to data fields 
will be stored in the audit trail of the system.  Prior to database lock (or any interim time points 
as described in the clinical data management plan), the investigator will use his/her log in 
credentials to confirm that the forms have been reviewed, and that the entries accurately reflect 

SOF/VEL FDC

the information in the source documents. The eCRF capture the data required per the protocol 
schedule of events and procedures. System-generated or manual queries will be issued to the 
investigative site staff as data discrepancies are identified by the monitor or internal Gilead staff, 
who routinely review the data for completeness, correctness, and consistency. The site 
coordinator is responsible for responding to the queries in a timely manner, within the system, 
either by confirming the data as correct or updating the original entry, and providing the reason 
for the update (e.g. data entry error). At the conclusion of the trial, Gilead will provide the site 
with a read-only archive copy of the data entered by that site. This archive must be stored in 
accordance with the records retention requirements outlined in Section 10.1.5.
10.1.7.
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability and Return
Gilead recommends that used and unused IMP supplies be returned to the shipping facility from 
which it came for eventual destruction. The study monitor will provide instructions for return. If 
return is not possible, the study monitor will evaluate each study center’s IMP disposal 
procedures and provide appropriate instruction for destruction of unused IMP supplies. If the site 
has an appropriate standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by 
Gilead QA, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused IMP supplies in 
accordance with that site’s approved SOP. A copy of the site’s approved SOP will be obtained 
for central files. 
If IMP is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all IMP
destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the method 
of destruction, and the person who disposed of the IMP. Upon study completion, copies of the 
IMP accountability records must be filed at the site. Another copy will be returned to Gilead.
The study monitor will review IMP supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.
10.1.8.
Inspections
The investigator will make available all source documents and other records for this trial to 
Gilead’s appointed study monitors, to IRB /IEC or to regulatory authority or health authority 
inspectors.
10.1.9.
Protocol Compliance
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol.
10.2.
Sponsor Responsibilities
10.2.1.
Protocol Modifications
Protocol modifications, except those intended to reduce immediate risk to study subjects, may be 
made only by Gilead. The investigator must submit all protocol modifications to the IRB or IEC 
in accordance with local requirements and receive documented IRB/IEC approval before 
modifications can be implemented.

protocol, e.g. attendance at Investigator's Meetings.  If required under the applicable statutory 
and regulatory requirements, Gilead will capture and disclose to Federal and State agencies any 
expenses paid or reimbursed for such services, including any clinical trial payments, meal, travel 
expenses or reimbursements, consulting fees, and any other transfer of value.
10.3.2.
Access to Information for Monitoring
In accordance with regulations and guidelines, the study monitor must have direct access to the 
investigator’s source documentation in order to verify the accuracy of the data recorded in the 
eCRF.
The monitor is responsible for routine review of the eCRF at regular intervals throughout the 
study to verify adherence to the protocol and the completeness, consistency, and accuracy of the 
data being entered on them. The monitor should have access to any subject records needed to 
verify the entries on the eCRF. The investigator agrees to cooperate with the monitor to ensure 
that any problems detected through any type of monitoring (central, on site) are resolved.

Notes: 

Toxicity grades for Quantitative and Dipstick Hematuria will be assigned by Covance Laboratory, however for other laboratories, toxicity grades will only be assigned to 
Dipstick Hematuria.

With the exception of lipid tests, any graded laboratory test with a result that is between the LLN and ULN should be assigned Grade 0.

If the severity of a clinical AE could fall under either one of two grades (e.g., the severity of an AE could be either Grade 2 or Grade 3), select the higher of the two grades for 
the AE.

Appendix 4.
Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing 
Potential, and Contraceptive Requirements
1) Definitions
a) Definition of Childbearing Potential
For the purposes of this study, a female born subject is considered of childbearing potential 
following menarche until becoming post-menopausal, unless permanently sterile or with 
medically documented ovarian failure.  
Women are considered to be in a postmenopausal state when they are ≥54 years of age with 
cessation of previously occurring menses for ≥12 months without an alternative cause.  
Permanent sterilization includes hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral 
salpingectomy in a female subject of any age.
b) Definition of Male Fertility
For the purposes of this study, a male born subject is considered fertile after the initiation of 
puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy or medical documentation.
2) Study Drug Effects on Pregnancy and Hormonal Contraception
Data from clinical pharmacokinetic interaction studies of SOF have demonstrated that there is no 
reduction in the clinical efficacy of hormonal contraception. Non-clinical toxicity studies of SOF 
have demonstrated no adverse effect on fertility or embryo-fetal development
Data from clinical pharmacokinetic interaction studies of VEL have demonstrated that there is no 
reduction in the clinical efficacy of hormonal contraception. Non-clinical toxicity studies of VEL
have demonstrated no adverse effect on fertility or embryo-fetal development. 
However, the risks of treatment with SOF/VEL during pregnancy in human have not been 
evaluated. Please refer to the latest version of the investigator’s brochure for additional 
information.
3) Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects of Childbearing Potential
The inclusion of female subjects of childbearing potential requires using at least an acceptable 
effective contraceptive measure. They must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening 
and a negative pregnancy test on the Baseline/Day 1 visit prior to enrollment.  A pregnancy test 
will be performed at the Post Treatment Week 4 visit.   They must also agree to one of the 
following from Screening until 30 days of the last dose of SOF/VEL.

Complete abstinence from intercourse of reproductive potential.  Abstinence is an acceptable 
method of contraception only when it is in line with the subject’s preferred and usual 
lifestyle.

SOF/5816
Protocol GS-US-342-1522

Or

Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed below. 
Intrauterine device (IUD) 
Intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS) 
Tubal sterilization
Essure micro-insert system 
Vasectomy in the male partner 
Barrier methods (one female barrier and one male barrier must be used in combination)
o
Female barriers: Diaphragm with spermicide or Cervical cap with spermicide
o
Male barriers: Male condom (with or without spermicide)
Hormonal methods
o
Oral contraceptives (either combined or progesterone only)
o
Injectable progesterone
o
Implants of levonorgestrel
o
Transdermal contraceptive patch
o
Contraceptive vaginal ring
Female subjects must also refrain from egg donation and in vitro fertilization during treatment 
and until at least 30 days after the last dose of SOF/VEL.
4) Contraception Requirements for Male Subjects
During the study, male subjects with female partners of childbearing potential should use 
condoms until 30 days after the last dose of SOF/VEL treatment when engaging in intercourse of 
reproductive potential. If their female partner is of childbearing potential (as defined above), 
their female partner must use 1 of the methods of birth control listed above from the date of 
Screening until 30 days after the last dose of SOF/VEL.
Male subjects must agree to refrain from sperm donation until 30 days after the last dose of 
SOF/VEL.

5) Procedures to be Followed in the Event of Pregnancy
Subjects will be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time during 
the study or if they become pregnant within 30 days of the last dose of SOF/VEL. Subjects who 
become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant must report the information to the 
investigator and discontinue study drug immediately. Subjects whose partner has become 
pregnant or suspects she is pregnant must report the information to the investigator. 
Instructions for reporting pregnancy, partner pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome are outlined in 
Section 8.5.2.1.
