Part A: Drug Interaction Study of Sofosbuvir and Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) Combinations in HIV and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Co-infected Patients. Part B: Efficacy and Safety of Sofosbuvir for 12 Weeks in HIV/HCV Co-infected Patients.

This study consists of 2 parts, Part A and Part B. Part A, the Phase 1 drug interaction/early viral kinetic study, will evaluate the effect of selected antiretroviral therapies on the safety, viral kinetics, and pharmacokinetics of sofosbuvir (GS-7977; PSI-7977) and its metabolites in participants with HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection. Part B, the Phase 2 treatment study, will investigate the efficacy and safety of sofosbuvir, pegylated interferon alpha (PEG) and ribavirin (RBV) in participants with HIV/HCV coinfection.

Primary outcomes

  1. Part A: Plasma Pharmacokinetics of SOF, EFV, Tenofovir (TFV), and FTC: AUCtau at Day 7

    Time frame: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 hours postdose

    AUCtau: concentration of drug over time (area under the plasma concentration versus time curve over the dosing interval).

    Data for this outcome measure were collected for participants in Part A only.

  2. Part A: Plasma Pharmacokinetics of SOF, EFV, TFV, and FTC: Cmax at Day 7

    Time frame: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 hours postdose

    Cmax: maximum observed concentration of drug in plasma.

    Data for this outcome measure were collected for participants in Part A only.

  3. Part B: Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at 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, 25 IU/mL) at 12 weeks after stopping study treatment.

    Data for this outcome measure were collected for participants in Part B only.

  4. Incidence of Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Discontinuation of Study Drug(s)

    Time frame: Up to 12 weeks

    The percentage of participants discontinuing any study drug due to an adverse event was summarized.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Part B: Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response at 4 and 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4 and SVR24)

    Time frame: Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24

    SVR4 and SVR24 was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 and 24 weeks following the last dose of study drug, respectively.

    Data for this outcome measure were collected for participants in Part B only.

  2. Part B: Percentage of Participants Experiencing Viral Breakthrough or Viral Relapse

    Time frame: Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24

    Viral breakthrough was defined as having confirmed detectable HCV RNA levels (HCV RNA > LLOQ) on treatment after having previously had undetectable HCV RNA levels (HCV RNA < LLOQ) while on treatment.

    Viral relapse was defined as having achieved undetectable HCV RNA levels (HCV RNA < LLOQ) at end of treatment, but did not achieve an SVR.

    Data for this outcome measure were collected for participants in Part B only.

Other outcomes

  1. Part B: On-treatment HCV RNA

    Time frame: Up to 8 weeks

    Data for this outcome measure were collected for participants in Part B only.

  2. Part B: On-treatment HIV RNA

    Time frame: Up to 8 weeks

    Data for this outcome measure were collected for participants in Part B only.
