This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of MK-5172 when administered in combination with peginterferon and ribavirin in treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C.
 
Primary Outcome Measures:
· Number of Participants Achieving complete Early Viral Response (cEVR) in the MK-5172 Treatment Arms [ Time Frame: Week 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
 
Secondary Outcome Measures:
· Number of Participants Achieving Sustained Viral Response 24 weeks After the End of All Study Therapy (SVR24) [ Time Frame: Week 72 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
