Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of ABT-450 with ritonavir (ABT-450/r) dosed in combination with ABT-072 and ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naïve participants with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

Read the detailed description

This was a Phase 2a multicenter, open-label, single arm, combination treatment study of a regimen of ABT-450/r/ABT-072, and ribavirin (RBV) in hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1-(1a or 1b) infected treatment-naïve participants.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Suppressed Below the Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ) From Week 4 Through Week 12

    Analysis of the percentage of participants with hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid less than the lower limit of quantitation (\< 25 IU/mL).

    Time frame: Week 4 through Week 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) < 1000 International Units Per Milliliter (IU/mL)

    Analysis of participants with HCV RNA levels below 1000 IU/mL at Week 2.

    Time frame: Week 2

  2. Percentage of Participants With Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Below the Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ) at Week 4

    Analysis of percentage of participants with hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid less than the lower limit of quantitation (\< 25 IU/mL).

    Time frame: Week 4

  3. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks (SVR12) Post-treatment

    Sustained Virologic Response 12 (SVR12) is defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) less than the lower limit of quantification (\< LLOQ; \< 25 IU/mL) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.

    Time frame: Post-treatment Day 1 to Post-treatment Week 12

  4. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 24 Weeks (SVR24) Post-Treatment

    Sustained Virologic Response 24 (SVR24) is defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) less than the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ; \< 25 IU/mL) 24 weeks after the last dose of study drug.

    Time frame: Post-treatment Day 1 to Post-treatment Week 24

  5. Time to Failure to Suppress or Rebound During Treatment

    The time to failure to suppress was defined as first day a participant met any virologic stopping criteria during treatment. The virologic stopping criteria also includes failure to achieve a 2 log10 IU/mL decrease in HCV RNA by Week 1, failure to achieve HCV RNA \<LLOQ by Week 6, or rebound, defined as first day of 2 consecutive increases of at least 0.5 log10 IU/mL above nadir (local minimum value) or confirmed HCV RNA \> lower limit of detection (LLOD) for participants who previously achieved HCV RNA \< LLOD.

    Time frame: Day 1 through Week 12

  6. Time to Virologic Relapse Through 24 Weeks Post-treatment

    Time to confirmed hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) ≥ lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) (2 consecutive measurements ≥ LLOQ) at any point in the post-treatment period among participants with HCV RNA \< LLOQ at the end of treatment.

    Time frame: Post-treatment Day 1 to Post-treatment Week 24
