A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Multiple Anti-HCV Combination Therapy in Chronically Infected Hepatitis C Patients
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Sofosbuvir, Ledipasvir, and 2 other interventions for Hepatitis C, Chronic. Completed, enrolled 229 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
Background: \- GS-7977, GS-5885, GS-9669, and GS-9451 are new drugs for treating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. GS-7977 may help treat the infection when used with other treatments like interferon therapy. GS-5885, and GS-9669, and GS-9451 also lower the amount of HCV in the body. Researchers want to see whether GS-7977 can be combined with any of the other three drugs to treat HCV infection. Some participants will take GS-7977 and GS-5885. Others will take GS-7977, GS-5885 and GS-9669 or GS-7977, GS-5885 and GS-9451. Objectives: \- To see whether GS-7977 with GS-5885 alone or in combination with either GS-9669 or 9451 can be used to treat HCV infection. Eligibility: Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic HCV infection and have never been treated for it. Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic HCV infection and have not responded to interferon therapy. Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic HCV infection with advanced liver disease and have never been treated for HCV Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood samples will be collected. A liver biopsy may also be performed. Some participants will take the two study drugs and some will take three study drugs. Those who take GS-7977 and GS-5885 will have one daily tablet named fixed dose combination or FDC. Those who take GS-7977 and CS-9669 will have three daily tablets taken once daily. Those who take GS-7977 and GS-5885 and GS-9451 will take 2 pills once a day. GS-7977 and GS-5885 will be combined in one pill and GS-9451 will be in another pill. Treatment will be monitored with frequent blood tests. These tests will check liver function and the level of HCV infection. Participants may have other blood tests as needed for treatment. Participants will have 4, 6 or 12 weeks of treatment depending on which study drugs are scheduled to take. After they complete their schedule, they will stop treatment with the study drugs. They may also have another liver biopsy. Participants will have regular follow-up visits over the next 48 weeks. They will have physical exams and provide blood samples....
