Efficacy and Safety of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir Fixed Dose Combination in the Treatment of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection in Pediatric Participants Undergoing Cancer Chemotherapy

February 18, 2020 updated by: Gilead Sciences

A Phase 2, Open-label Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir Fixed Dose Combination in the Treatment of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection in Pediatric Subjects Undergoing Cancer Chemotherapy

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) in treating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in pediatric participants who are undergoing cancer chemotherapy.

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, 50 IU/mL) at 12 weeks after stopping study treatment.
Posttreatment Week 12
Percentage of Participants Who Permanently Discontinued Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event
Time Frame: First dose date up to Week 12
First dose date up to Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure
Time Frame: Baseline to Posttreatment Week 24

Virologic failure was defined as:

  • 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)
  • Virologic relapse:

    • Confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at last on-treatment visit
Baseline to Posttreatment Week 24
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4)
Time Frame: Posttreatment Week 4
SVR4 was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 weeks after stopping study treatment.
Posttreatment Week 4
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR24)
Time Frame: Posttreatment Week 24
SVR24 was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 24 weeks after stopping study treatment.
Posttreatment Week 24
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ While on Treatment
Time Frame: Weeks 1, 4, 8, and 12
Weeks 1, 4, 8, and 12
HCV RNA Change From Baseline/Day 1
Time Frame: Baseline; Weeks 1, 4, 8, and 12
Baseline; Weeks 1, 4, 8, and 12
