SOF (Sovaldi®) +RBV for 16 or 24 Weeks and SOF+RBV+Peg-IFN for 12 Weeks in Adults With Genotype 2 or 3 Chronic HCV Infection

This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 16 or 24 weeks of sofosbuvir (Sovaldi®; SOF) + ribavirin (RBV), and 12 weeks of SOF+RBV+ pegylated interferon (Peg-IFN) in treatment-naive and treatment-experienced adults with chronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, and treatment-experienced adults with cirrhosis and chronic genotype 2 HCV infection.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female, age greater than or equal to 18 years.
  • Confirmed chronic HCV infection.
  • Subjects will have cirrhosis status assessment; liver biopsy may be required.
  • Genotype 2 subjects must have cirrhosis of the liver to be eligible.
  • Treatment-naive or prior treatment failure to ≥12 weeks of an interferon- based regimen that was not discontinued prematurely due to an adverse event
  • Infection with HCV genotype 2 or 3 as determined at Screening
  • Body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 18 kg/m^2
  • Screening laboratory values within predefined thresholds.
  • Liver imaging (e.g., ultrasound) within 6 months of Baseline/Day 1 is required in cirrhotic patients to exclude hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In the event of intrahepatic lesions, triple phase CT scan or MRI should be performed to exclude HCC.
  • Subject must be of generally good health as determined by the Investigator.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior use of any other inhibitor of the HCV nonstructural protein (NS)5B polymerase
  • Pregnant or nursing female or male with pregnant female partner
  • History of any other clinically significant chronic liver disease.
  • HIV or chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
  • Malignancy with the exception of certain resolved skin cancers.
  • Chronic use of systemically administered immunosuppressive agents.
  • Clinically-relevant drug or alcohol abuse.
  • History of solid organ transplantation.
  • Current or prior history of clinical hepatic decompensation.
  • History of clinically-significant illness or any other major medical disorder that may interfere with subject treatment, assessment or compliance with the protocol.
  • Known hypersensitivity to interferon, RBV, the study investigational medicinal product, the metabolites, or formulation excipients.

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.

Treatment and study plan

SOF

Drug

400 mg tablet administered orally once daily

Other names: Sovaldi®, GS-7977, PSI-7977

RBV

Drug

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)

Peg-IFN

Drug

180 µg administered via subcutaneous injection once weekly

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, 15 IU/mL) at 12 weeks after stopping study treatment.

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Permanently Discontinued Any Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event

    Time frame: Up to 24 weeks

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 SVR 24 were defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 and 24 weeks after stopping study treatment, respectively.

  2. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24

    Time frame: Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24

  3. HCV RNA at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12

    Time frame: Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12

  4. Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12

    Time frame: Baseline; Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12

  5. Percentage of Participants Experiencing On-Treatment Virologic Failure

    Time frame: Up to 24 weeks

    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)
  6. Percentage of Participants Experiencing Viral Relapse

    Time frame: Up to Posttreatment Week 24

    Viral relapse is defined as HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the post-treatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at end of treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values or last available post-treatment measurement.
