Ombitasvir /Paritaprevir/Ritonavir Plus Ribavirin on HCV GT4
- Conditions
- Hepatitis C Virus Infection
- Interventions
- Drug: OBV/PTV/r) ± ribavirin (RBV)
- Registration Number
- NCT04378608
- Lead Sponsor
- Beni-Suef University
- Brief Summary
The objective of the investigators was to delineate the efficacy and safety of Ombitasvir, paritaprevir with ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r) plus ribavirin (RBV) on chronic HCV GT4 Egyptian naïve patients
- Detailed Description
Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) combination therapies from various mechanisms of action and families have been revolutionized the management landscape of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV). Ombitasvir, paritaprevir with ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r) ± ribavirin (RBV) are approved to treat HCV genotype 4 (GT4) infection. Here, investigators' objective was to delineate the efficacy and safety of OBV/PTV/r plus RBV of HCV GT4 in the treatment of Egyptian naïve patients.
Between 5 January and 8 September 2017, a cohort of 100 Egyptian patients infected with HCV GT4 was allocated and administered orally OBV/PTV/r with RBV, for 12 weeks, which given as oral tablets based on patient tolerability. The primary endpoint of investigators' study was a sustained virological response (HCV RNA \< 12 IU/mL) 12 weeks from the cessation of the treatment (SVR12).

Group Intervention Description 2 DAA (OBV/PTV/r) ± ribavirin (RBV) OBV/PTV/r) ± ribavirin (RBV) Administering Ombitasvir/Paritaprevir/Ritonavir/ tablets plus RBV tablets to HCV GT4 in the treatment of Egyptian naïve patients
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks Post-treatment (SVR12) 12 weeks after last dose SVR12 was defined as hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than 12 IU/mL 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
adverse event (AE) Screening up to 30 days after last dose An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation observed after administering a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an event that results in, death, participant hospitalization, life-threatening, significant disability/incapacity, or a congenital anomaly.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants With Post-treatment Relapse Within 12 Weeks Following End of Treatment Up to 12 weeks after last dose Post-treatment relapse was defined as defined as confirmed HCV RNA \> 12 IU/ml between the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug among participants who completed treatment with HCV RNA \< 12 IU/ml at the end of treatment.
