January 28, 2016 updated by: Enanta Pharmaceuticals, Inc

Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multi-center Trial to Determine the Safety and Antiviral Effect of Single Doses of EDP239 in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infected Subjects

The purpose of this study is, to assess whether EDP239 can reduce the HCV viral load in HCV gentotype-1 in chronically infected subjects and to further evaluate the safety profile of EDP239.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
28

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 60 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects must have chronic genotype-1 hepatitis C virus infection and plasma HCV-RNA ≥ 105 IU/mL at the time of screening.
  • Subjects must have chronic HCV infection as determined by any of the following:
  • be anti-HCV (+) for at least 6 months per subject history or medical records
  • an anti-HCV test, viral load, or genotype > 6 months ago
  • In the setting of a recent positive anti-HCV test (< 6 months), liver biopsy demonstrating chronicity
  • Subjects must have IL-28b genotype "CC"
  • Subjects must weigh at least 50 kg to participate in the study, and must have a body mass index (BMI) within the range of 18 - 36 kg/m2. BMI = Body weight (kg) / [Height (m)]2

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Use of other investigational drugs at the time of enrollment, or within 5 half-lives of enrollment, or within 30 days (for small molecules) whichever is longer; or longer if required by local regulations.
  • Previous treatment, including the use of any investigational agents, for the treatment of HCV infection.
  • Women of child bearing potential.
  • Subjects with IL-28b genotype "CT or TT".
  • ALT γ-GT, and AST must be below 5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN).
  • Serum bilirubin must not exceed ULN.
  • The PT (INR) must be within normal limits.
  • If necessary, laboratory testing may be repeated on one occasion (as soon as possible) prior to randomization, to rule out any laboratory error.
  • Use of drugs that inhibit or induce CYP3A4.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from baseline Hepatitis C viral load at Day 1
Time Frame: baseline, day 1
Blood will be collected for Hepatitis C viral load at Day 1.
baseline, day 1

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety
Time Frame: 14 days
Laboratory and clinical evaluations will be used as safety events
14 days
Change from baseline in HCV RNA log
Time Frame: baseline, Day 1
A viral load drop in excess of 2.5 will be considered a success.
baseline, Day 1
Total concentration in plasma of EDP239 in HCV Gentoype 1 infected subjects
Time Frame: baseline, day 1
The concentration in plasma parameters of EDP239 will be determined using the actual recorded sampling times and non-compartmental method.
baseline, day 1
