Official title: A Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Antiviral Activity, and Pharmacokinetics of ABT-450 With Ritonavir (ABT-450/r) and ABT-267 in Japanese Adults With Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection
This study evaluated the safety, tolerability, antiviral activity, and pharmacokinetics of ABT-450 (also known as paritaprevir) with ritonavir (ABT-450/r) and ABT-267 (also known as ombitasvir) in adult Japanese patients with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1b (HCV GT1b) or genotype 2 (HCV GT2) infection who were previous treated with pegylated interferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV).
Read the detailed description
This multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-arm, combination treatment study consisted of a Treatment and Post-treatment Phase, divided into 2 cohorts: 1) chronic HCV GT1b- infected, pegIFN/RBV treatment-exposed Japanese adults; and 2) HCV GT2-infected, pegIFN/RBV treatment-exposed Japanese adults. The Treatment Phase evaluated the antiviral activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics of a range of ABT-450/r and ABT-267 doses for 12 to 24 weeks. The Post-treatment Phase evaluated the evolution and persistence of viral resistance to ABT-267 and ABT-450.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ABT-450/ritonavir, ABT-267Drug
Also called ABT-450 also known as paritaprevir, ABT-267 also known as ombitasvir, ritonavir also known as Norvir, ABT/450/r/ABT-267 (ABT-450 coformulated with ritonavir and ABT-267) also known as VIEKIRAX Combination Tablets
ABT-450 (tablet) dosed with ritonavir (capsule), and ABT-267 (tablet)
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Arm 1 | Experimental | Participants with HCV GT1b received ABT-450/ritonavir (100/100 mg) and ABT-267 (25 mg) once daily for 12 weeks. Receives: Drug: ABT-450/ritonavir, ABT-267 |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 24 Weeks After Treatment (SVR24)
The percentage of participants with SVR24 (plasma Hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid [HCV RNA] level less than the lower limit of quantitation [< LLOQ] 24 weeks after the last dose of study drug). The LLOQ for the assay was 25 IU/mL.
Measured: 24 weeks after last dose of study drug
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. A serious adverse event (SAE) is an AE that results in death, is life-threatening, results in or prolongs hospitalization, results in congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, spontaneous or elective abortion, or requires intervention to prevent a serious outcome. AEs were rated for severity as either Mild: transient and easily tolerated; Moderate: causes discomfort and interrupts usual activities; or Severe: causes considerable interference with usual activities, may be incapacitating or life-threatening. AEs related to study drug were assessed as being either probably or possibly related by the investigator. Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) were collected from the first dose of study drug administration to 30 days after last dose; SAEs were collected from the time that informed consent was obtained to 30 days after last dose.
Measured: TEAEs: up to 16 weeks for the 12-week treatment groups and up to 28 weeks for the 24-week treatment groups; SAEs: up to 65 weeks for the 12-week treatment groups and up to 77 weeks for the 24-week treatment groups.
Secondary outcomes (2)
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks After Treatment (SVR12)
The percentage of participants with SVR12 (plasma HCV RNA level < LLOQ 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug). The LLOQ for the assay was 25 IU/mL.
Measured: 12 weeks after last dose of study drug
Percentage of Participants With End of Treatment (EOT) Response
The percentage of participants with EOT response (plasma HCV RNA level < LLOQ at week 12 for the 12-week duration arms and Week 24 for the 24-week duration arms12). The LLOQ for the assay was 25 IU/mL.
Measured: 12 or 24 weeks after first dose of study drug

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing ABT-450/ritonavir, ABT-267 in people with Chronic Hepatitis C Infection, run by AbbVie (prior sponsor, Abbott).
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 4 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 30 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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 26 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 24 Weeks After Treatment (SVR24) (time frame: 24 weeks after last dose of study drug). 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01672983, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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 30 May 2018.
