Safety and Efficacy of Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir/Voxilaprevir and Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir in Adults With Chronic HCV Infection Who Have Not Previously Received Treatment With Direct-Acting Antiviral Therapy (POLARIS-2)

February 8, 2019 updated by: Gilead Sciences

A Phase 3, Global, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir/GS-9857 Fixed-Dose Combination for 8 Weeks Compared to Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir for 12 Weeks in Direct-Acting Antiviral-Naïve Subjects With Chronic HCV Infection

The primary objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) fixed dose combination (FDC) for 8 weeks with that of SOF/VEL FDC for 12 weeks in direct-acting antiviral-naive participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ On Treatment
Time Frame: Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12

    • Non-response (HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment)
