What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Receives: Drug: LDV/SOF; Drug: RBV

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 After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12)

    SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA < the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) 12 weeks following the last dose of study drug.

    Measured: Posttreatment Week 12

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Discontinued Study Drug Due to Any Adverse Event (AE)

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at 4 and 24 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4 and SVR24)

    SVR4 and SVR24 were defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 4 and 24 weeks following the last dose of study drug, respectively.

    Measured: Posttreatment Weeks 4 and 24

  2. Percentage of Participants With HCV RNA < LLOQ on Treatment

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

  3. HCV RNA Change From Day 1

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

  4. Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure

    Virologic failure was defined as

    • On-treatment virologic failure
    • confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after having previously had HCV RNA < LLOQ, while on treatment (ie, breakthrough),
    • confirmed > 1 log10 IU/mL increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment (ie, rebound), HCV RNA persistently ≥ LLOQ through 8 weeks of treatment (ie, nonresponse)
    • Relapse
    • HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ during the posttreatment period having achieved HCV RNA < LLOQ at end of treatment, confirmed with 2 consecutive values or last available posttreatment measurement

    Measured: Up to Posttreatment Week 24

  5. Percentage of HIV/HCV- Coinfected Participants That Maintain HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL While on HCV Treatment and at Posttreatment Week 4

    Measured: Up to Posttreatment Week 4

  6. For HIV/HCV- Coinfected Participants, Change From Baseline in CD4 T-cell Count at the End of Treatment and Posttreatment Week 4

    Measured: Up to Posttreatment Week 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing LDV/SOF and RBV in people with Hepatitis C Virus Infection, run by Gilead Sciences at 20 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 7 inclusion and 10 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 16 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in Russia, Estonia. 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 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 10 May 2017). 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 After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12) (time frame: Posttreatment Week 12). 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 NCT02472886, 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 16 Nov 2018.
