Open-Labeled Study of PSI-7977 and RBV With and Without PEG-IFN in Treatment-Naïve Patients With HCV GT2 or GT3

November 7, 2014 updated by: Gilead Sciences

A Multi-center, Open-Labeled Exploratory Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics Following Oral Administration of PSI-7977 400 mg and Ribavirin for 12 Weeks With and Without Pegylated Interferon in Treatment-Naïve Patients With Chronic HCV Infection Genotype 2 or Genotype 3

This study is to assess the safety and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF) 400 mg with and without ribavirin (RBV) and/or with and without pegylated interferon alfa-2a (PEG) in subjects with genotype 1, 2 or 3 hepatitis C (HCV) infection.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Part 1: HCV genotype 2 or 3: participants will receive SOF 400 mg once daily with weight-based RBV for 12 weeks. Participants will be randomized in equal proportions to: no PEG (Arm 1), PEG for 4 weeks (Arm 2), PEG for 8 weeks (Arm 3), or PEG for 12 weeks (Arm 4).

Part 2: HCV genotype 2 or 3: participants will receive SOF 400 mg once daily (monotherapy) for 12 weeks (Arm 5), or SOF 400 mg once daily with PEG and weight-based RBV for 8 weeks (Arm 6); HCV genotype 1: null responders (did not respond to their prior treatment) will receive SOF 400 mg once daily with weight-based RBV for 12 weeks (Arm 7).

Part 3: HCV genotype 1 treatment-naive (Arm 8) or HCV genotype 2 or 3 treatment-experienced participants (Arm 9) will receive SOF 400 mg once daily in combination with weight-based RBV for 12 weeks.

Part 4: HCV genotype 2 or 3 treatment naive participants will receive SOF 400 mg once daily with weight-based RBV for 8 weeks (Arm 10) or SOF 400 mg once daily and 800 mg RBV for 12 weeks (Arm 11). HCV genotype 1 null responders will receive SOF 400 mg once daily, ledipasvir (LDV), and weight based RBV for 12 weeks (Arm 12). HCV genotype-1 treatment naive participants will receive SOF 400 mg once daily with weight-based RBV and LDV for 12 weeks (Arm 13).

Part 5: HCV genotype 1 null responders will receive SOF 400 mg once daily with GS-9669 500 mg once daily and weight-based RBV for 12 weeks (Arm 14). HCV genotype-1 treatment naive participants receive SOF 400 mg once daily with GS-9669 500 mg once daily and weight-based RBV for 12 weeks (Arm 15).

Part 6: HCV genotype 1 null responders with Stage F4 fibrosis will receive LDV/SOF FDC for 12 weeks (Arm 16) or LDV/SOF FDC with weight-based RBV for 12 weeks (Arm 17). HCV genotype 2 or 3 treatment-naive participants will receive LDV/SOF FDC for 12 weeks (Arm 18). HCV genotype 2 or 3 treatment-experienced participants will receive LDV/SOF FDC for 12 weeks (Arm 19). HCV genotype 1 hemophiliacs will receive LDV/SOF FDC with weight-based RBV for 12 weeks (Arm 20). HCV genotype 1 treatment-naive participants will receive LDV/SOF FDC with weight-based RBV for 6 weeks (Arm 21). HCV genotype 1 treatment-naive participants will receive LDV/SOF FDC for 6 weeks (Arm 22).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Adverse Events
Time Frame: Up to 12 weeks plus 30 days
Adverse events (AEs) occurring from baseline (Day 1 for all groups) to 30 days following the last dose of study drug were summarized across the participant population. A participant was counted once if they had a qualifying event.
Up to 12 weeks plus 30 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks Following Completion of Treatment (SVR12)
Time Frame: Posttreatment Week 12
SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA < the limit of detection (LOD; < 15 IU/mL) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
Posttreatment Week 12
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LOD at Week 6
Time Frame: Week 6
Week 6
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LOD at Week 8
Time Frame: Week 8
Data are not presented for Group 21 which ended treatment after Week 6.
Week 8
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LOD at Week 12
Time Frame: Week 12
Data are not presented for Groups 6, 10, and 21 which ended treatment after Week 8 or Week 6.
Week 12
Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 6
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 6
Baseline to Week 6
Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 8
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 8
Data are not presented for Group 21 which ended treatment after Week 6.
Baseline to Week 8
Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12
Data are not presented for Groups 6, 10, and 21 which ended treatment after Week 8 or Week 6. Data are not presented for Groups 16, 17, 18, and 20 because participants with detectable HCV RNA discontinued due to protocol-specified stopping rules.
Baseline to Week 12
Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure
Time Frame: Up to Posttreatment Week 24

The percentage of participants with on-treatment virologic failure (viral breakthrough, rebound, or nonresponse) or following treatment (viral relapse) was summarized.

On-treatment virologic failure was defined as:

  • Viral breakthrough (confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LOD after having previously had HCV RNA < LOD while on treatment),
  • Viral rebound (confirmed > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment, or
  • Nonresponse (HCV RNA persistently ≥ LOD through 6 weeks of treatment)

Viral relapse was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LOD during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LOD at the last on-treatment visit.

Up to Posttreatment Week 24
