Impact of Physician Directed Education on Patient Compliance With Hepatitis C Therapy (OPTIMAL)

22 dicembre 2014 aggiornato da: Chronic Liver Disease Foundation

Boceprevir in Community Practice: Assessing Safety, Efficacy, Compliance and Quality of Life, Impact of an Education Program

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a physician directed education program on treatment compliance of hepatitis C patients administered triple drug therapy of pegylated interferon, ribavirin and boceprevir.

Panoramica dello studio

Descrizione dettagliata

The new treatment paradigm for HCV in the era of protease inhibitors will add a level of complexity that was previously not seen with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. In addition to new concepts such as utilization of a lead-in period, compliance with a TID dosing regimen of a third agent, development of resistance, and futility rules and decision points have yet to be assessed in a real life practice setting. The OPTIMAL trial is designed to evaluate the impact of an education program for community sites participating in a CLDF study treating chronic HCV genotype 1 patients. Group A will be comprised of approximately 30 CLDF designated Hepatology Centers of Educational Expertise (HCEE) and Group B will be comprised of approximately 60 community sites. Group A will also deliver the educational program regarding the use of HCV protease inhibitors, and the overall treatment of HCV to approximately two (2) community sites in it's geographic region. Group B will be comprised of community sites that have no previous clinical trial experience with boceprevir or an HCV protease inhibitor. For the purpose of this study, each community site in Group B will be assigned to an HCEE.

Cosa sta misurando lo studio?

Misure di risultato primarie

Misura del risultato
Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Treatment Duration Compliance Rate
Lasso di tempo: End of treatment up to treatment week 48
The primary objective will be to define treatment duration compliance rate (calculated as the actual treatment duration in weeks divided by the expected duration in weeks) based on individual patient treatment goals as defined in the OPTIMAL protocol for HCV patients treated with boceprevir, peginterferon and ribavirin for up to 48 weeks. Rates will be reported for HCEEs (Group A) and community sites enrolled in the Program (Group B).
End of treatment up to treatment week 48

Misure di risultato secondarie

Misura del risultato
Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Drug Exposure
Lasso di tempo: End of treatment up to treatment week 48
Total number of patients receiving treatment over specified time intervals.
End of treatment up to treatment week 48
Determination of the Rate of Sustained Viral Response (SVR) for HCV Patients Treated With Boceprevir, Peginterferon and Ribavirin at Community Sites and at HCEEs.
Lasso di tempo: Follow-up week 24
Rate of SVR was defined as the percentage of participants with HCV-RNA undetectable at follow-up Week 24. All percentages were based on the total number of participants originally randomized/enrolled to that particular arm.
Follow-up week 24
Short Form Health Survey Measuring Quality of Life Reported at Baseline, End of Treatment, and Follow-up Week 24 (36 Multiple Choice Questions)
Lasso di tempo: Baseline, end of treatment, follow-up week 24

Determination of the quality of life for HCV patients treated with boceprevir, peginterferon and ribavirin at community sites and at HCEEs.

Patient scores per subscale (8) were obtained by subtracting the lowest possible raw score from the actual raw score x 100, divided by the lowest possible raw score subtracted from the highest possible raw score. Subscale scores were averaged (with standard deviation) for Group A and Group B. Composite Scores are standardized to the general US population having a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Higher score = improved quality of life.

Baseline, end of treatment, follow-up week 24
Number of Participants With Adverse Events
Lasso di tempo: Throughout entire study, at end of treatment and follow up week 24
Description of the adverse events and rate of events of boceprevir, peginterferon and ribavirin in HCV patients treated at community sites and at HCEEs
Throughout entire study, at end of treatment and follow up week 24
