About this study

Official title: 3-Year, Observational Study to Evaluate the Durability of Sustained Viral Response and the Kinetics of Antiviral-Resistant HCV in Subjects Who Participated in Studies of Idenix Anti-HCV, Direct Acting Antivirals

All subjects in this study have previously been in an Idenix HCV study and received study drug for 3 consecutive days. Subjects who had received placebo in a previous Idenix study will not be enrolled in this study.

In this study, researchers will try to find answers to these questions:

  • How much (if any) hepatitis C virus is in your blood after stopping your Idenix study drug?
  • Is your hepatitis C virus possibly resistant to treatment with the Idenix study drug or similar drugs?
Read the detailed description

The data obtained from this study will be used to further understand the long-term efficacy of Idenix DAAs used to treat HCV infection and to further understand HCV resistance to Idenix DAAs.

What is being measured

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

  1. Durability of Sustained viral response [SVR]

    To evaluate the durability of sustained virological response (SVR). Plasma HCV RNA levels will be monitored over time.

    Measured: every 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Kinetics of resistant variants

    To describe the kinetics of resistant variants to Idenix direct acting antivirals (DAAs) by HCV RNA sequencing. The presence of each identified resistant variant in the viral population will be descriptively evaluated until the viral population consists entirely of wild-type virus or over a period of 3 years, whichever comes first.

    Measured: every 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatitis C, run by Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC.

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 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Apr 2015. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Durability of Sustained viral response [SVR] (time frame: every 3 months). 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 16 Apr 2015.
