About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Single-Arm Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of ABT-450/Ritonavir/ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267) and ABT-333 Co-administered With Ribavirin (RBV) in Adults With Genotype 1b Chronic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection and Cirrhosis (Turquoise-IV)

This was a multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir and dasabuvir co-administered with ribavirin (RBV) for 12 weeks in treatment naïve and pegylated-interferon alfa-2a or alfa-2b (pegIFN)/RBV treatment-experienced, cirrhotic HCV genotype 1b-infected adults.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy (the percentage of participants achieving a 12-week sustained virologic response (SVR12), [HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA) < lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) 12 weeks following treatment]) of co-formulated ombitasvir, paritaprevir, and ritonavir (ombitasvir/paritaprevir/r) and dasabuvir co-administered with RBV for 12 weeks in HCV genotype 1b-infected adult participants with compensated cirrhosis. The secondary objectives of this study were to assess the number and percentage of participants with virologic failure during treatment and the percentage of participants with relapse post-treatment.

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 12 Weeks (SVR12) Post-treatment

    Sustained Virologic Response 12 (SVR12) is defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) less than the lower limit of quantification (< LLOQ; < 25 IU/mL) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug. Participants with missing data were imputed as failures.

    Measured: Post-treatment Day 1 to Post-treatment Week 12

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Participants With On-Treatment Virologic Failure

    On-Treatment Virologic Failure is defined as confirmed HCV RNA >= LLOQ after HCV RNA < LLOQ during treatment, or confirmed increase from nadir (local minimum value) in HCV RNA [2 consecutive HCV RNA measurements > 1 log10 IU/mL above nadir] at any time point during treatment, or failure to suppress during treatment [all on-treatment values of HCV RNA >= LLOQ] with at least 6 weeks [defined as active study drug duration ≥ 36 days] of treatment.

    Measured: Day 1 through Week 12

  2. Percentage of Participants With Post-Treatment Relapse

    Post- Treatment Relapse is defined as confirmed HCV RNA >= LLOQ between end of treatment and 12 weeks after last actual dose of active study drug [up to and including the SVR12 assessment time point] for a participant with HCV RNA < LLOQ at Final Treatment Visit who completes treatment.

    Measured: Post-treatment Day 1 to Post-treatment Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ombitasvir/Paritaprevir/Ritonavir, Dasabuvir and Ribavirin (RBV) in people with Chronic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection, run by AbbVie.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 29 Jun 2016. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 29 Jun 2016). 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 12 Weeks (SVR12) Post-treatment (time frame: Post-treatment Day 1 to Post-treatment Week 12). 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 29 Jun 2016.
