Anti-E1E2 Antibodies (D32.10 Epitope-binding Antibodies) and HCV Triple Therapy

Completed
Conditions
Hepatitis C
Interventions
Other: Triple therapy
Registration Number
NCT02877199
Lead Sponsor
Hospices Civils de Lyon
Brief Summary

The hypothesis was to check whether baseline anti-E1E2 antibodies were correlated with the on-treatment viral kinetics and could predict virological outcome in treatment-experienced HCV-infected cirrhotic patients receiving protease inhibitor-based triple therapy.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of patients with positive anti-E1E2 antibody level at treatment initiationBaseline (initiation of treatment)

Anti-E1E2 antibody levels were determined as previously described (Ndongo et al. Hepatology 2010;52:1531-42) using optical densities obtained after dilution of patients' serum samples at 1/250 and 1/500. Samples with anti-E1E2 levels above 950 (OD value× 1000) were considered positive.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Kinetic of Quantification of hepatitis C viral load (HCV RNA)baseline (initiation of treatment), at week 4, 12, 24, 36, 48 of therapy, at 12 weeks after the end of treatment.

Viral load was assessed at baseline (initiation of treatment), and at week 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 of therapy and 12 weeks after the end of treatment.
