Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Chronic Hepatitis C Virus
Interventions
Drug: LDV/SOF
Registration Number
NCT01768286

Brief Summary

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.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) 12 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12)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.

Incidence of Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Discontinuation From Any Study DrugUp to 24 weeks

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

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With SVR at 4 and 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4 and SVR24)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.

Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 2Week 2
Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 4Baseline; Week 4
Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 8Baseline; Week 8
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 24Week 24

Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 1Week 1
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 4Week 4
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 8Week 8
Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ at Week 12Week 12
Change From Baseline in HCV RNA at Week 1Baseline; Week 1
Percentage of Participants With Virologic FailureBaseline 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.
