E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy (sustained virologic response [SVR]; defined as undetectable HCV RNA 24 weeks following treatment cessation) of 16 and 24 weeks of response guided duration of therapy with GS-9190, GS-9256, ribavirin (RBV), and peginterferon alfa 2a (PEG). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
. To evaluate the antiviral efficacy of 24 weeks of therapy with GS-9256, PEG and RBV • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of therapy in each treatment arm. • To evaluate the emergence of viral resistance following initiation of therapy with GS 9190 and GS-9256. • To characterize the viral dynamics and steady state pharmacokinetics of GS 9190 and GS 9256 when administered in combination with PEG and RBV. Exploratory objectives of this study include the following: • Assess genetic variation in the human IL28B gene as a predictor of virologic response in each treatment arm. • Through genetic discovery research (i.e., pharmacogenomics) in subjects who provide their additional and specific consent: to identify or validate genetic markers that may be predictive of the natural history of HCV disease, the virologic response to therapy, and the tolerability of drugs used in HCV therapeutics. |

FARMACOCINETICA/FARMACODINAMICA: Versione:Amend. 1 Data:2010/08/18 Titolo:Sottostudio farmacocinetico e della dinamica virale Obiettivi:Circa 80 soggetti (40 soggetti del braccio 1 e 20 soggetti rispettivamente dei bracci 2 e 3) saranno arruolati nei centri di studio selezionati per partecipare a un sottostudio farmacocinetico (PK) e della dinamica virale. L’arruolamento dei soggetti nel sottostudio PK/dinamica virale sara` gestito in modo tale che 20 soggetti nella coorte del braccio 1 e 10 soggetti rispettivamente nelle coorti del braccio 2 e del braccio 3 avranno il genotipo IL28B CC; i restanti soggetti arruolati avranno il genotipo IL28B CT oppure il TT. I campioni plasmatici per la valutazione HCV RNA e un campione plasmatico da archiviare saranno prelevati a 4, 6 e 8 ore dalla somministrazione della dose iniziale in giornata 1. I soggetti ritorneranno per un prelievo di HCV RNA plasmatico e di un campione per la conservazione circa 24 ore (giornata 2) e 48 ore (giornata 3) dopo la somministrazione della dose iniziale. I soggetti ritorneranno ancora una volta in giornata 5, 6 o 7 (in base alle preferenze di programmazione) per un prelievo di HCV RNA plasmatico e di un campione per la conservazione. Oltre alle visite ambulatoriali programmate in settimana 1 (giornata 8), 2 e 4, i soggetti arruolati in questo sottostudio ritorneranno in giornata 10 per la valutazione dell’HCV RNA e per il prelievo di un campione di plasma da conservare. Sara` effettuata una raccolta seriale PK in settimana 1 (qualunque momento dalla giornata 8 alla giornata 11, a seconda del basale) e in settimana 4 (giornata 29 � 3 giorni, in relazione al basale). Dopo un digiuno di 8 ore, i soggetti verranno trattenuti per circa 8 ore onde consentire la raccolta di un profilo farmacocinetico seriale, con il campionamento pre-dose (≤ 5 minuti) e a 0,5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 e 8 ore dopo il dosaggio del mattino di GS-9190 in cieco, piu` GS-9256 e RBV ai pasti.

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Adults, aged at least 18 with Chronic HCV infection for at least 6 months prior to Baseline (Day 1) in subjects currently positive for HCV RNA and anti-HCV antibody documented by: • a positive anti-HCV antibody test, positive HCV RNA assay, or HCV genotype test at least 6 months prior to Baseline (Day 1) or • a liver biopsy performed prior to Baseline (Day 1) with evidence of chronic HCV infection (i.e., there must be some degree of fibrosis, in addition to inflammation, for the biopsy criterion to be accepted as the historic data for chronic infection) 4. Subjects must have liver biopsy results (performed no more than 2 years prior to screening) indicating the absence of cirrhosis. Alternatively, in countries where the Competent Authority recommends use of a non-invasive alternative to liver biopsy (such as FibroTest, FibroScan, or Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse imaging), a test result indicating the absence of cirrhosis is allowed, if the test was performed no more than 6 months prior to screening. 5. HCV infection limited to genotype 1a or 1b. 6. Detectable plasma HCV RNA at Screening. 7. BMI between 18 and 36 kg/m2 8. Eligible subjects must also be HCV treatment-na�ve, defined as no prior exposure to IFN-α, RBV, or other approved or experimental HCV therapy, and must be eligible to start standard of care therapy with PEG/RBV. 9. QTcF interval (QT corrected using Fridericia’s formula) must be less than or equal to 450 msec as determined from screening ECG. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Pregnant women or women who may wish to become pregnant. Male with a female partner who is pregnant or is planning to become pregnant within 7 months of anticipated last dose of RBV. Evidence of infection or co-infection with a non-genotype 1 HCV strain. Poorly controlled diabetes mellitus . History of hemoglobinopathy, known retinal disease, sarcoidosis, invasive malignancy within 5 years. Psychiatric illnesses. Co-infection with HBV or HIV. Chronic use of systemic immunosuppressive agents. Presence of autoimmune disorders. Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. History of significant cardiac disease or a family history of Long QT Syndrome. Known cirrhosis. Chronic liver disease of a non-HCV etiology. History of solid organ transplantation.
