What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With Extended Rapid Virologic Response (eRVR)

    eRVR was defined as undetectable hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA (ie, HCV RNA <15 IU/mL, the lower limit of detection, target not detected) at both Weeks 4 and 12. HCV RNA levels were measured by Tobas TaqMan HCV Auto from the central laboratory.

    Measured: At Weeks 4 and 12 on treatment

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Rapid Virologic Response (RVR)

    RVR was defined as undetectable hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA (ie, HCV RNA <15 IU/mL, the lower limit of detection, target not detected) at Week 4. HCV RNA levels were measured by CobasTaqMan HCV Auto from the central laboratory .

    Measured: At Week 4 on treatment

  2. Percentage of Participants With Complete Early Virologic Response (cEVR)

    cEVR was defined as undetectable hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA (ie, HCV RNA <15 IU/mL, the lower limit of detection, target not detected) at Week 12 on treatment. HCV RNA levels were measured by Cobas TaqMan HCV Auto from the central laboratory

    Measured: At Week 12 on treatment

  3. Percentage of Participants With a Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at Weeks 4, 12, and 24

    SVR at follow-up Week 4 (SVR4), follow-up Week 12 (SVR12), and follow-up Week 24 (SVR24) is defined as undetectable hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA (ie, HCV RNA <15 IU/mL, the lower limit of detection, target not detected) at each of these timepoints. HCV RNA levels were measured by Cobas TaqMan HCV Auto from the central laboratory .

    Measured: Follow-up Weeks 4, 12, and 24

  4. Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure

    Virologic failure is defined by the following 6 categories: 1.Virologic breakthrough, defined as confirmed >1 log10 increase in hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA over nadir or confirmed HCV RNA ≥limit of quantitation (LOQ) after confirmed undetectable HCV RNA while on treatment. 2. <1 log10 decrease in HCV RNA from baseline at Week 4 of treatment. 3. Failure to achieve early virologic response, defined as <2 log10 decrease in HCV RNA from baseline at Week 12 of treatment. 4. Detectable HCV RNA at Week 12, and HCV RNA ≥LOQ at Week 24 of treatment. 5. Detectable HCV RNA at end of treatment (including early discontinuation). 6 Relapse, defined as detectable HCV RNA during follow-up after undetectable HCV RNA levels at end of treatment.

    Measured: From on-treatment Week 1 to Follow-up Week 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BMS-790052, Peginterferon alfa-2b and Ribavirin in people with Hepatitis C Infection, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 6 sites in Japan.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 12 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Japan. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 12 Oct 2015). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Extended Rapid Virologic Response (eRVR) (time frame: At Weeks 4 and 12 on treatment). 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 NCT01016912, 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 12 Oct 2015.
