Efficacy and Safety of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir Fixed-Dose Combination in Treatment-Naive and Treatment-Experienced Subjects With Chronic Genotype 4 or 5 HCV Infection

October 19, 2018 updated by: Gilead Sciences

A Phase 2, Multicenter, Open-Label Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir Fixed-Dose Combination in Treatment-Naive and Treatment-Experienced Subjects With Chronic Genotype 4 or 5 HCV Infection

This study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) in participants with chronic genotype 4 or 5 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection as measured by the proportion of subjects with sustained virologic response (SVR12), defined as HCV RNA < lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) 12 weeks after discontinuation of therapy.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) 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
Percentage of Participants Who Permanently Discontinued LDV/SOF Due to an Adverse Event
Time Frame: Up to 12 weeks
Up to 12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With SVR at 4 and 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4 and SVR24)
Time Frame: Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24
SVR4 and SVR 24 were defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 and 24 weeks after stopping study treatment, respectively.
Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24
Percentage of Patients With Virologic Failure
Time Frame: Up to posttreatment Week 24

Virologic failure was defined as either:

  • On-treatment virologic failure:

    • Breakthrough (confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ while on treatment), or
    • Rebound (confirmed > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment), or
    • Non-response (HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment); or
  • Relapse:

    • HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ while receiving treatment
Up to posttreatment Week 24
Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12
Time Frame: Baseline; Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12
Baseline; Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12
