Measured: 24 weeks
Secondary outcomes (3)
Viral Dynamics
To characterize the viral dynamics of GS-5885, GS-9451 and tegobuvir. The median change from baseline in HCV RNA and time-weighted average change from baseline through Day 10 will be assessed based on plasma HCV RNA sampling times to characterize the viral dynamics of GS-5885, GS-9451 and tegobuvir.
Measured: 10 days
Composite (or Profile) of Pharmacokinetics Composite (or Profile) of Pharmacokinetics
To characterize the steady state pharmacokinetics of GS-5885, GS-9451, tegobuvir and ribavirin (if appropriate). Cmax, Tmax, Clast, Tlast, Ctau, λz, AUCtau and T ½
Measured: predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 24 hours post-dose
Antiviral Efficacy
To evaluate the antiviral efficacy (as defined by SVR) of adding pegylated interferon alfa-2a (PEG) and RBV (Arm 2 only) for 24-48 weeks to the original treatment regimen in subjects who experience viral breakthrough or relapse and enter the Rescue Therapy Substudy
Measured: 24-48 weeks

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing GS-5885, GS-9451 and tegobuvir in people with Hepatitis C, Chronic, run by Gilead Sciences at 51 sites in 2 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 10 inclusion and 5 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 17 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 51 sites in United States, Germany. 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. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Safety and Tolerability (time frame: 24 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 17 Dec 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
