  4. Number of Participants With Rapid Virological Response

    Number of participants with rapid virological response - defined as serum Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA level below the limit of detection (BLD) of the Roche COBAS Taqman HCV/High Pure System (HPS) for extraction assay (10 IU/mL) on Day 28.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  5. Number of Participants With Early Virological Response

    Number of participants with early virological response (EVR) defined as at least 2log10 reduction in HCV Ribonucleic acid (RNA) from baseline at Week 12. Number of responders* - Response = At least a 2 log10 reduction in viral load from baseline at Week 12 (Day 84)

Number of responders* - Response = Viral load below the limit of detection at end of all treatment.

    Measured: Week 12

  7. Number of Participants With Sustained Virological Response

    Number of participants with sustained virological response. Sustained virological response was defined as serum HCV RNA below the limit of detection (<10 IU/mL) at least 85 days after stopping standard care (SOC).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 207127 middle dose +SOC, BI 207127 high dose+SOC and BI 207127 low dose + SOC in people with Hepatitis C, Chronic, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 18 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Germany, France, Switzerland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Apr 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Virologic Response Defined as >= 3 Log Drop in Viral Load From Baseline at Day 28 With no Evidence of Virologic Rebound During These 28 Days. Virologic Rebound is Defined as >= 1 Log Increase in Viral Load From Nadir. (time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00905632, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Apr 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
