What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response Rate at Post-treatment Week 12 (SVR12)

    SVR12 rate was defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA levels to be <lower limit of quantitation, target detected or target not detected, at post-treatment Week 12. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory.

    Measured: Post Treatment Week 12 (Follow-up period)

Secondary outcomes (6)

  1. Percentage of Participants With Rapid Virologic Response (RVR) at Week 4

    RVR was defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA levels to be <lower limit of quantitation, target not detected at Week 4. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory.

    Measured: Week 4

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

    cEVR was defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA levels to be <lower limit of quantitation, target not detected at Week 12. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory.

    Measured: Week 12

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

    eRVR were defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA levels to be <lower limit of quantitation, target not detected at both Week 4 and Week 12. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory.

    Measured: Week 4 and Week 12

  4. Percentage of Participants With End of Treatment Response (EOTR)

    EOTR were defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA levels <lower limit of quantitation, target not detected at end of treatment. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory.

    Measured: End of treatment (Week 24)

  5. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response at Week 12 (SVR12) by rs12979860 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in the IL-28B Gene Categories

    Participants were categorized into 3 genotypes based on single nucleotide polymorphisms in the IL28B gene. SVR12 was defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA levels below lower limit of quantitation, target detected or target not detected at follow-up Week 12. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory.

    Measured: Baseline, post-treatment Week 12 (Follow-up period)

  6. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Discontinuations Due to Adverse Events (AEs) and Who Died

    AE was defined as any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE was defined as a medical event that at any dose resulted in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; was life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or required or prolonged hospitalization. Based on the severity, AEs were categorized as Grade (Gr) 1=Mild, Gr 2=Moderate, Gr 3=Severe, Gr 4=Life-threatening or disabling, Gr 5=Death.

    Measured: From start of treatment (Day 1) up to 7 days post last dose of study treatment (Week 24)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Daclatasvir, Simeprevir and Ribavirin in people with Hepatitis C Virus, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 26 sites in 6 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 21 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 23 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in United States, France, Germany, Hungary, Spain and 1 more country. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Nov 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 Sustained Virologic Response Rate at Post-treatment Week 12 (SVR12) (time frame: Post Treatment Week 12 (Follow-up period)). 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 NCT01628692, 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 23 Feb 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
