An Open-label, Single Arm, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 With Ribavirin (RBV) in Adults With Genotype 1 HCV Infection Taking Methadone or Buprenorphine

April 30, 2018 updated by: AbbVie

An Open-label, Single-Arm, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Combination of ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 Coadministered With Ribavirin (RBV) in Adults With Genotype 1 Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection Taking Methadone or Buprenorphine

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-450/ritonavir/ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267; ABT-450 also known as paritaprevir; ABT-267 also known as ombitasvir) and ABT-333 (also known as dasabuvir) coadministered with ribavirin (RBV) in hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1-infected adults taking methadone or buprenorphine ± naloxone.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study consisted of 2 periods: a 12-week treatment period and a 48-week post-treatment period (for all participants who received study drugs). All participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug were to be followed for 48 weeks post-treatment to monitor for safety, HCV RNA, the emergence and/or persistence of resistant viral variants, and assessment of patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks Post-treatment
Time Frame: 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
The percentage of participants with sustained virologic response (plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid [HCV RNA] level less than the lower limit of quantification [< LLOQ]) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure During Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1), and Treatment Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12
Virologic failure during treatment was defined as rebound (confirmed HCV RNA greater than or equal to the lower limit of quantitation [≥ LLOQ] after HCV RNA < LLOQ during treatment, or confirmed increase from the lowest value post baseline in HCV RNA [2 consecutive HCV RNA measurements > 1 log(subscript)10(subscript) IU/mL above the lowest value post baseline] at any time point during treatment) or fail to suppress (HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ) persistently during treatment with at least 6 weeks [≥ 36 days] of treatment.
Baseline (Day 1), and Treatment Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12
Percentage of Participants With Virologic Relapse Post-treatment
Time Frame: From the end of treatment through 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
Participants were considered to have virologic relapse after treatment if they had confirmed quantifiable plasma Hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) ≥ lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) between the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug among participants who completed treatment with HCV RNA < LLOQ at the end of treatment. Completion of treatment was defined as a study drug duration ≥ 77 days.
From the end of treatment through 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) for ABT-450, Ritonavir, ABT-267, ABT-333, ABT-333 M1 Metabolite, and Ribavirin
Time Frame: Pre-dose (time 0) and 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose
Blood samples were collected pre-dose (time 0) and at 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose at one visit between treatment week 2 and treatment week 12, and were analyzed using validated analytical methods. A total of 22/38 participants consented for intensive pharmacokinetic blood sampling. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to 24 hours (AUC24 in ng*hr/mL)] was estimated using noncompartmental analyses. For ABT-450, ritonavir, and ABT-267, the AUC from time 0 to the last measureable concentration (AUCt in ng*hr/mL) was calculated instead of AUC24 due to time deviations at 24 hours. The AUCt values are approximately equivalent to AUC24. For ABT-333, ABT-333 M1, and RBV, the AUC from time 0 to 12 hours (AUC12 in ng*hr/mL) after the morning dose was calculated using the 24-hour concentration as the 12-hour concentration as dosing was twice a day and a 12-hour sample was not collected in this study.
Pre-dose (time 0) and 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for ABT-450, Ritonavir, ABT-267, ABT-333, ABT-333 M1 Metabolite, and Ribavirin
Time Frame: Pre-dose (time 0) and 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose
Blood samples were collected pre-dose (time 0) and at 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose at one visit between treatment week 2 and treatment week 12, and were analyzed using validated analytical methods. A total of 22/38 participants consented for intensive pharmacokinetic blood sampling. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax; measured in ng/mL) was directly determined from the concentration-time data.

Blood samples were collected pre-dose (time 0) and at 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose at one visit between treatment week 2 and treatment week 12, and analyzed using validated analytical methods. A total of 22/38 participants consented for intensive pharmacokinetic blood sampling. The time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax; measured in hours) was directly determined from the concentration-time data.
Pre-dose (time 0) and 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose
Plasma Trough Concentration (Ctrough) for ABT-450, Ritonavir, ABT-267, ABT-333, ABT-333 M1 Metabolite, and Ribavirin
Time Frame: Pre-dose (time 0) and 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose
Blood samples were collected pre-dose (time 0) and at 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours post-dose at one visit between treatment week 2 and treatment week 12, and analyzed using validated analytical methods. A total of 22/38 participants consented for intensive pharmacokinetic blood sampling. Minimum plasma concentration (C trough; measured in ng/mL) was directly determined from the concentration-time data.
