Viekira Pak or Mavyret Treatment for Patient With Chronic Kidney Disease and Hepatitis C

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic Hepatitis C
Interventions
Drug: Viekira Pak ± ribavirin
Drug: Mavyret
Registration Number
NCT02946034
Lead Sponsor
Massachusetts General Hospital
Brief Summary

Open-label experimental trial of 12 weeks of Viekira Pak treatment ± ribavirin or Mavyret for adults with chronic kidney disease and hepatitis C.

Detailed Description

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of paritaprevir/ritonavir, ombitasvir, dasabuvir (referred to as Viekira Pak) ± ribavirin or Glecaprevir / Pibrentasvir (referred to as Mavyret) for adults with advanced CKD with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 45ml/min that are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 and to determine the effect of treatment on traditional and novel markers of kidney function and cardiovascular disease risk in patients with advanced CKD. During the course of this prospective, single arm treatment trial, we will measure currently accepted markers of kidney function and novel biomarkers of CKD progression to determine if they improve with eradication of HCV.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Average Change in Urine Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-Alpha From Baseline to Post-treatment52 Weeks

Measure of novel biomarkers of incident and progressive CKD and liver disease to determine if eradication of HCV infection changes the measures of chronic inflammation associated with progressive end-organ disease.

To calculate the average change, the difference between baseline values and the average of 12-weeks post treatment and 40-weeks post treatment were found for each patient. These differences were then averaged, as shown below.

Average Change in Urine Interleukin (IL)-6 From Baseline to Post-treatment52 weeks

Measure of novel biomarkers of incident and progressive CKD and liver disease to determine if eradication of HCV infection changes the measures of chronic inflammation associated with progressive end-organ disease.

To calculate the average change, the difference between baseline values and the average of 12-weeks post treatment and 40-weeks post treatment were found for each patient. These differences were then averaged, as shown below.

Average Change in Plasma Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-Alpha From Baseline to Post-treatment52 weeks

Measure of novel biomarkers of incident and progressive CKD and liver disease to determine if eradication of HCV infection changes the measures of chronic inflammation associated with progressive end-organ disease.

To calculate the average change, the difference between baseline values and the average of 12-weeks post treatment and 40-weeks post treatment were found for each patient. These differences were then averaged, as shown below.

Average Change in Plasma Interferon Gamma-induced Protein 10 (IP-10) From Baseline to Post-treatment52 Weeks 52 Weeks 52 weeks

Measure of novel biomarkers of incident and progressive CKD and liver disease to determine if eradication of HCV infection changes the measures of chronic inflammation associated with progressive end-organ disease.

To calculate the average change, the difference between baseline values and the average of 12-weeks post treatment and 40-weeks post treatment were found for each patient. These differences were then averaged, as shown below.

Average Change in Plasma Interleukin (IL)-6 From Baseline to Post-treatment52 weeks

Measure of novel biomarkers of incident and progressive CKD and liver disease to determine if eradication of HCV infection changes the measures of chronic inflammation associated with progressive end-organ disease.

To calculate the average change, the difference between baseline values and the average of 12-weeks post treatment and 40-weeks post treatment were found for each patient. These differences were then averaged, as shown below.

Average Change in Plasma Interferon (IFN)-Gamma From Baseline to Post-treatment52 weeks

Measure of novel biomarkers of incident and progressive CKD and liver disease to determine if eradication of HCV infection changes the measures of chronic inflammation associated with progressive end-organ disease.

To calculate the average change, the difference between baseline values and the average of 12-weeks post treatment and 40-weeks post treatment were found for each patient. These differences were then averaged, as shown below.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Patients Who Suffered Adverse Events Related to Study Drug (Safety and Tolerability)12 weeks

Safety and tolerability of Viekira Pak treatment in CKD patients will be assessed by number of patients who suffered adverse events (serious or otherwise) deemed to be related to study drug.

Number of Patients Who Had Sustained Virologic Response at 12-weeks (SVR12) Post-treatment (Efficacy of Treatment)24 weeks

Efficacy will be determined by negative HCV RNA viral load measured during the 12 week treatment period as well as 12 weeks after the last dose.
