Grazoprevir and Elbasvir Without Ribavirin for 12 Weeks in Patients With HCV-related Cryoglobulinemic Nephropathy (CRYOKID)

February 8, 2018 updated by: Anna Linda Zignego, University of Florence

A Multicenter, Open Label, Pilot Study of MK-5172 (Grazoprevir)/MK-8742 (Elbasvir) Without Ribavirin for 12 Weeks in G1b and G4 Patients With HCV-related Cryoglobulinemic Nephropathy

CryoKid is a no-profit, multi-center, single-arm, open-label, pilot study. The study aims to evaluate the tolerability of MK-8742 (Elbasvir) / MK-5172 (Grazoprevir) administrated for 12 weeks without Ribavirin in patients with HCV chronic hepatitis (G1b and G4) and cryoglobulinemic nephropathy.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

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
SVR12
Time Frame: march 2018-october 2018
Percentage of participants achieving sustained virologic response 12 weeks after completing treatment (SVR12)
march 2018-october 2018

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
SVR24
Time Frame: march 2018-december 2018
Percentage of participants achieving Sustained Virologic Response 24 weeks after ending study treatment (SVR 24)
march 2018-december 2018
Clinical response: improvement or disappearance of MC clinical and biochemical stigmata
Time Frame: march 2018-december 2018
Clinical response: improvement or disappearance of MC clinical and biochemical stigmata at the EOT, at week 12 and week 24 of follow-up. Improvement of the renal function at week 4, week 8, EOT at week 12 and week 24 of follow-up.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Anticipated)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
March 1, 2018

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
