Brief summary
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and activity of escalating, multiple, oral doses of GS-5885 in subjects with chronic genotype 1 Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection. Each participant in the study will be sequestered in the clinic for the initial 5 days of the study.
