Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir Fixed-Dose Combination in Adults With Chronic HCV Infection and Child-Pugh Class B Cirrhosis

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL) fixed dose combination (FDC) with and without ribavirin (RBV) for 12 weeks and SOF/VEL FDC for 24 weeks in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and Child-Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) class B cirrhosis.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent
  • HCV RNA > 10^4 IU/mL at screening
  • Chronic HCV infection (≥ 6 months)
  • Confirmed CPT class B (7-9) at screening

Exclusion criteria

  • Current or prior history of solid organ transplantation, significant pulmonary disease, significant cardiac disease, or porphyria
  • Inability to exclude hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by imaging within 6 months of baseline/Day 1
  • Infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  • Screening ECG with clinically significant abnormalities
  • Prior exposure to SOF or any other nucleotide analogue HCV nonstructural protein 5B (NS5B) inhibitor or any HCV NS5A inhibitor
  • Laboratory results outside of acceptable ranges at screening

Treatment and study plan

SOF/VEL

Drug

400/100 mg tablets administered orally once daily

Other names: GS-7977/GS-5816, Epclusa®

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) 12 weeks following the last dose of study drug.

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

    Time frame: Up to 24 weeks plus 30 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 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 Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, and 24

    Time frame: Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, and 24

  3. Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, and 24

    Time frame: Baseline; Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, and 24

  4. Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure

    Time frame: Up to Posttreatment Week 24

    Virologic failure was defined as

    • On-treatment virologic failure
    • HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ, while on treatment,
    • > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment,
    • HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment (ie nonresponse)
    • Relapse
    • HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at end of treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values or last available posttreatment measurement
  5. Percentage of Participants With a Decrease, No Change, or Increase Between Baseline and Posttreatment Week 24 in MELD Score

    Time frame: Baseline to Posttreatment Week 24

    Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores are used to assess prognosis and suitability for liver transplantation. Scores can range from 6 to 40; higher scores/increased scores indicate greater severity of disease.

  6. Percentage of Participants With a Decrease, No Change, or Increase Between Baseline and Posttreatment Week 24 in Child-Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) Score

    Time frame: Baseline to Posttreatment Week 24

    CPT scores grade the severity of cirrhosis and are used to determine the need for liver transplantation. Scores can range from 5 to 15; higher scores/increased scores indicate greater severity of disease.
