Safety and Efficacy of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) With and Without Ribavirin for the Treatment of HCV

October 19, 2018 updated by: Gilead Sciences

A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Sofosbuvir/GS-5885 Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) +/- Ribavirin for 12 and 24 Weeks in Treatment-Naive Subjects With Chronic Genotype 1 HCV Infection.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral efficacy of ledipasvir (LDV)/sofosbuvir (SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets with or without ribavirin (RBV) administered for 12 and 24 weeks in treatment-naive subjects with chronic genotype 1 HCV infection.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description

SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA level < the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ, ie, < 25 copies/mL) 12 weeks after last dose of study drug.
Posttreatment Week 12
Incidence of Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Discontinuation From Any Study Drug
Time Frame: Up to 24 weeks
The percentage of participants who experienced an adverse event leading to permanent discontinuation from any study drug was summarized.
Up to 24 weeks

Baseline; Week 8
Percentage of Participants With SVR at 4 and 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Study Drug
Time Frame: Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24
SVR4 and SVR24 were defined as HCV RNA level < LLOQ at 4 and 24 weeks after discontinuation of study drug, respectively.
Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24
Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure
Time Frame: Baseline to posttreatment Week 24

On-treatment virologic failure was defined as:

  • Breakthrough: HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ, while on treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values (second confirmation value could have been posttreatment), or last available on-treatment measurement with no subsequent follow- up values, OR
  • Rebound: > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values (second confirmation value could have been posttreatment), or last available on-treatment measurement with no subsequent follow-up values, OR
  • Nonresponse: HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment

Virologic relapse was defined as HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at end of treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values or last available posttreatment measurement

Baseline to posttreatment Week 24
