Simeprevir (SMV) + Sofosbuvir (SOF) With or Without Ribavirin (RBV) for Interferon-intolerant or Ineligible (IFN-II) Patients With Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC)
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Simeprevir, Sofosbuvir, and 1 other intervention for Hepatitis C. Completed, enrolled 24 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
Prior trials have shown that many G1 CHC patients are ineligible or intolerant to pegylated (PEG)-based regimens due to prior severe side effects, worsening of cytopenias, exacerbation of underlying psychiatric disorders, or autoimmune disorders. These patients will not be candidates for treatment with the approvals of SMV and SOF in early 2014 due to the combination with PEG-regimens. Results of the COSMOS study suggest that these patients are likely to have excellent responses to SMV+SOF with or without RBV with 12 weeks of therapy, and that 24 weeks are unnecessary. This trial is designed to rapidly enroll and be completed in order to confirm this hypothesis.
