About this study
Official title: Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-Blind Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Faldaprevir in Combination With Ribavirin and TD-6450 for 12 Weeks in Treatment-Naive Patients Chronically Infected With Genotype 4 Hepatitis C Virus
Phase 2a study designed to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Faldaprevir and TD-6450 in combination with Ribavirin for a 12-week treatment duration in treatment-naïve participants with genotype 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
Read the detailed description

The study will test the safety and effects of this alternative treatment for up to 12 weeks. Secondary objectives of this study are to determine the pharmacokinetics of the study drugs when co-administered, and to evaluate HCV RNA kinetics during treatment.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Faldaprevir, TD-6450 and Ribavirin in people with Hepatitis C Viral Infection and Chronic Hepatitis C, run by Trek Therapeutics, PBC at 1 site in United States.
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 1 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 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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 subjects achieving 12-week sustained virologic response following treatment with 2 direct acting anti-virals and ribavirin in Genotype 4 Hepatitis C infected adults (time frame: 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 30 Jan 2017.
