Safety and Efficacy of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir Fixed-Dose Combination ± Ribavirin in Treatment-Experienced Subjects With Genotype 1 HCV Infection

This study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral efficacy of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir fixed dose combination (FDC) with or without ribavirin (RBV) administered for 12 or 24 weeks in treatment-experienced subjects with chronic genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Age > 18, with chronic genotype 1 HCV infection
  • HCV treatment-experienced, including patients who have previously failed a nonstructural protein (NS)3/4A protease inhibitor plus pegylated interferon (PEG)/RBV regimen
  • HCV RNA > 10,000 IU/mL at screening
  • Cirrhosis determination; a liver biopsy may be required
  • Screening laboratory values within defined thresholds
  • Use of two effective contraception methods if female of childbearing potential or sexually active male

Exclusion criteria

  • Pregnant or nursing female or male with pregnant female partner
  • Coinfection with HIV or hepatitis B virus
  • Current or prior history of clinical hepatic decompensation
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma or other malignancy (with exception of certain resolved skin cancers)
  • Chronic use of systemic immunosuppressive agents
  • History of clinically significant illness or any other medical disorder that may interfere with subject treatment, assessment or compliance with the protocol

Treatment and study plan

LDV/SOF

Drug

Ledipasvir (LDV) 90 mg/sofosbuvir (SOF) 400 mg fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet administered orally once daily

Other names: Harvoni®, GS-5885/GS-7997

RBV

Drug

Ribavirin (RBV) tablets administered orally in a divided daily dose according to package insert weight-based dosing recommendations (< 75 kg = 1000 mg and ≥ 75 kg = 1200 mg)

Primary outcomes

  1. 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, 25 IU/mL) 12 weeks following the last dose of study drug.

  2. Incidence of Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Discontinuation From Any Study Drug

    Time frame: Up to 24 weeks

    The percentage of participants who experienced an adverse event leading to permanent discontinuation from any study drug was summarized.

Secondary outcomes

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

  2. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 1

    Time frame: Week 1

  3. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 2

    Time frame: Week 2

  4. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 4

    Time frame: Week 4

  5. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 8

    Time frame: Week 8

  6. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 12

    Time frame: Week 12

  7. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

  8. Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 1

    Time frame: Baseline; Week 1

  9. Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 2

    Time frame: Baseline; Week 2

  10. Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 4

    Time frame: Baseline; Week 4

  11. Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 8

    Time frame: Baseline; Week 8

  12. Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure

    Time frame: Baseline to posttreatment Week 24

    Virologic failure was defined as on-treatment virologic failure or virologic relapse.

    • On-Treatment Virologic Failure was defined as
    • 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 was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at last on-treatment visit.
