Interesting study, I have to say I would take off label in a shot for the cross company collaboration:

Gilead (Sofosbuvir) and BMS (Daclatasvir)
A small Phase 2 study of HCV genotype 1 (126 patients) and genotype 2 or 3 (44 patients) were treated for 12 or 24 weeks with the combination of 2 HCV polymerase inhibitors (daclatasvir and sofosbuvir) with and without ribavirin.  The genotype 1 patients achieved cure rates of 96 to 98%, while genotype 2 and 3 patients achieved cure rates of 93%
