Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 8 and 12 weeks of treatment with a fixed dose combination (FDC) of elbasvir (EBR) 50 mg + grazoprevir (GZR) 100 mg (i.e., MK-5172A) as assessed by the percentage of participants with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 4 infection that achieve sustained virologic response (HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA] < Lower Limit of Quantification [LLOQ]) 12 weeks after the end of study therapy (SVR12). This study also evaluated the safety and tolerability of EBR/GZR.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Arm 1: EBR/GZR for 8 Weeks

Treatment-naïve participants with stage 0-2 fibrosis (F0-F2) receive FDC of EBR/GZR (50 mg/100 mg) for 8 weeks, with 24 weeks of follow-up.

Drug: EBR/GZR (50 mg/100 mg) FDC
One FDC tablet taken once daily by mouth for 8 or 12 weeks depending upon randomization.
Other Names:
  • MK-5172A
  • Experimental: Arm 2: EBR/GZR for 12 Weeks

    Treatment-naïve participants with F0-F2 stage fibrosis, treatment-naïve participants with F3-F4 stage fibrosis, and treatment-experienced participants with F0-F4 stage fibrosis receive FDC of EBR/GZR (50 mg/100 mg) for 12 weeks, with 24 weeks of follow-up.

    Drug: EBR/GZR (50 mg/100 mg) FDC
    One FDC tablet taken once daily by mouth for 8 or 12 weeks depending upon randomization.
    Other Names:
  • MK-5172A
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks After End of Treatment (SVR12) [12 weeks after completing study treatment (Arm 1: Week 20 / Arm 2: Week 24)]

      The percentage of participants to achieve SVR12 was determined for each arm (SVR12 was defined as HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA] < lower limit of quantification [LLOQ] at 12 weeks after the end of all study therapy). Plasma HCV RNA was measured using the COBAS™ AmpliPrep/COBAS™ TaqMan HCV Test, v2.0®, which has a LLOQ of 15 IU/mL.

    2. Number of Participants With ≥ 1 Adverse Events (AEs) [Up to 14 weeks]

      An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.

    3. Number of Participants Who Discontinued From Study Treatment Due to an AE [Up to Study Week 12]

      An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Sustained Virologic Response 24 Weeks After End of Treatment (SVR24) [24 weeks after completing study treatment (Arm 1: Week 32 / Arm 2: Week 36)]

      The percentage of participants to achieve SVR24 was determined for each arm (SVR24 was defined as HCV RNA < LLOQ at 24 weeks after the end of all study therapy). Plasma HCV RNA was measured using the COBAS™ AmpliPrep/COBAS™ TaqMan HCV Test, v2.0®, which has a LLOQ of 15 IU/mL.

    2. Prevalence of Baseline NS3 Resistance-Associated Substitutions (RASs) to EBR or GZR [Day 1]

      Blood samples for viral resistance assays were collected at Baseline (Day 1) and analyzed for substitutions in the NS3 gene region. Results are pooled for all participants with baseline sequencing data available, and the number of participants with RASs is reported according HCV genotype. Resistance-associated substitutions are defined as amino acid substitutions that confer reduced susceptibility to a direct-acting antiviral (DAA) and may contribute to virologic failure. The prevalence of baseline substitutions in participants infected with HCV GT4 subtypes was assessed by evaluating amino acid substitutions in NS3.

    3. Prevalence of Baseline NS5A RASs to EBR or GZR [Day 1]

      Blood samples for viral resistance assays were collected at Baseline (Day 1) and analyzed for substitutions in the NS5A gene region. Results are pooled for all participants with baseline sequencing data available, and the number of participants with RASs is reported according HCV genotype. Resistance-associated substitutions are defined as amino acid substitutions that confer reduced susceptibility to a DAA and may contribute to virologic failure. The prevalence of baseline substitutions in participants infected with HCV GT4 subtypes was assessed by evaluating amino acid substitutions in NS5A.
