Sofosbuvir (GS-7977) in Combination With PEG and Ribavirin for 12 Weeks in Treatment Experienced Subjects With Chronic HCV Infection Genotype 2 or 3

September 5, 2014 updated by: Gilead Sciences

A Phase 2, Open-Label Study of Sofosbuvir in Combination With PEG and Ribavirin for 12 Weeks in Treatment Experienced Subjects With Chronic HCV Infection Genotype 2 or 3

This study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral efficacy of sofosbuvir (SOF) in combination with peginterferon alfa 2a (PEG) and ribavirin (RBV) administered for 12 weeks in participants with chronic genotype 2 or 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who have previously failed prior treatment with an interferon-based regimen.

Primary Outcome Measures

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, < 15 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 12 weeks
The percentage of participants discontinuing any study drug due to an adverse event was summarized.
Up to 12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

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 SVR24 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 12 weeks

On-treatment virologic failure was defined as:

  1. Viral breakthrough: HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ while on treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values (second confirmation value may have been posttreatment) or with a last available on-treatment measurement and no subsequent follow-up values, or
  2. Viral rebound: > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values (second confirmation value may have been posttreatment) or with a last available on-treatment measurement and no subsequent follow-up values, or
  3. Nonresponse: HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment
Up to 12 weeks
Percentage of Participants Experiencing Viral Relapse
Time Frame: Up to Posttreatment Week 24
Viral relapse was defined as having HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at the end of treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values or last available posttreatment measurement.
Up to Posttreatment Week 24
