Treatment: Drugs - VX-222
Treatment: Drugs - ribavirin
Treatment: Other - peginterferon-alfa-2a
Treatment: Drugs - VX-222

Experimental: Treatment Arm A - Treatment Arm A was discontinued as a result of patients meeting a pre-defined stopping rule related to viral breakthrough during the first four weeks of dosing.

* Enrollment for this arm is complete. No additional subjects will be recruited.

Experimental: Treatment Arm D - * Subjects who meet pre-specified viral response criteria will stop their assigned treatment at 12 weeks.
* Subjects who do not meet the pre-specified viral response criteria will receive peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin for an additional 12 weeks for a total treatment duration of 24 weeks.
* Enrollment for this arm is complete. No additional subjects will be recruited.

Experimental: Treatment Arm E - * Subjects who meet pre-specified viral response criteria will stop their assigned treatment at 12 weeks.
* Subjects who do not meet the pre-specified viral response criteria will receive peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin for an additional 24 weeks for a total treatment duration of 36 weeks.

Experimental: Treatment Arm F - * Subjects who meet pre-specified viral response criteria will stop their assigned treatment at 12 weeks.
* Subjects who do not meet the pre-specified viral response criteria will receive peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin for an additional 24 weeks for a total treatment duration of 36 weeks.
