Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of bavituximab when administered via an arm vein as multiple infusions and to examine how bavituximab behaves in the body and how it effects the amount of hepatitis C virus and immune modulators in individuals with chronic infection.

- All genotypes of HCV acceptable
- Complete Blood Counts within normal limits
- Normal renal function (serum creatinine within normal limits)

- Decompensated clinical liver disease, including a history of prolonged clotting times, hypoalbuminemia, encephalopathy, treatment for elevated ammonia levels, or ascites
- Any evidence of clinically significant bleeding defined as gross hematuria, hemoptysis, or gastrointestinal bleeding
- Known history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy (e.g., von Willebrand Disease or Hemophilia)
- Any history of thromboembolic events \[e.g., deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary thromboembolism (PE)\] including central venous catheter-related thrombosis within the past 12 months
- Concurrent therapy with oral or parenteral anticoagulants
- Concurrent hormone therapy (i.e., estrogen contraceptives, hormone replacement, anti-estrogen)
- Antiviral therapy within 4 weeks of day 0
- Investigational therapy within 4 weeks of day 0
- Major surgery within 4 weeks of day 0
- Pregnant or nursing women
- Uncontrolled intercurrent disease (e.g., diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disease)
- Any history of angina pectoris, coronary artery disease or cerebrovascular accident, or transient ischemic attack
- A history of any condition requiring anti-platelet therapy with the exception of general cardiovascular prophylaxis with aspirin
