A Study to Evaluate Treatment of Hepatitis C Virus Infection in Pediatric Subjects

Registration Number
NCT02486406
Lead Sponsor
AbbVie
Brief Summary

This was a Phase 2/3, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and safety of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/RTV) with or without dasabuvir (DSV) and with or without ribavirin (RBV) in Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 or 4 (GT1 or GT4)-infected pediatric participants of ≥ 3 to 17 years of age.

Detailed Description

The study population for Part 1, the PK study, included GT1-infected participants who were noncirrhotic and treatment-naïve (TN). Part 2, the safety and efficacy study, included GT1 or GT4-infected participants who were TN or interferon (\[IFN\] or Pegylated-interferon alfa-2a or 2b \[pegIFN\] with or without RBV) treatment-experienced (TE) without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis. In Part 1 and Part 2, the treatment regimen and duration were dependent on HCV GT, GT1 subtype, and cirrhosis status.

Cmax is the peak concentration that a drug or drug metabolite achieves in a specified compartment after the drug has been administrated and before administration of a second dose.

Part 1: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ombitasvir (OBV)At Week 2

Cmax is the peak concentration that a drug or drug metabolite achieves in a specified compartment after the drug has been administrated and before administration of a second dose.
