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).

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.

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
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at 12 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12)
Time Frame: Posttreatment Week 12
SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA < the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ; ie, 25 IU/mL) at 12 weeks after stopping study treatment.
Posttreatment Week 12
Incidence of Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Discontinuation of Study Drug(s)
Time Frame: Up to 24 weeks
The percentage of participants permanently discontinuing any study drug due to an adverse event was summarized.
Up to 24 weeks

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
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response at 4 and 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4 and SVR24)
Time Frame: Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24
SVR4 and SVR 24 were defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 and 24 weeks following the last dose of study drug, respectively.
Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24
Percentage of Participants Experiencing On-treatment Virologic Failure
Time Frame: Up to 24 weeks

On-treatment virologic failure was defined as

  • Breakthrough (confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ while on treatment), or
  • Rebound (confirmed > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment), or
  • Non-response (HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment)
Up to 24 weeks
Percentage of Participants Experiencing Virologic Relapse
Time Frame: Up to Posttreatment Week 12
Virologic relapse was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at last on-treatment visit.
Up to Posttreatment Week 12
