Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main objective of the study was to compare the efficacy of pegylated interferon lambda-1a/ ribavirin/ daclatasvir (Lambda/RBV/DCV) to pegylated interferon alfa-2a/ ribavirin/ telaprevir (alfa-2a/RBV/TVR) in subjects with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype-1b (GT-1b) infection, measured as the proportion of subjects in each treatment group.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and in compliance with all International Conference on Harmonization Good Clinical Practice Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were followed.
    Background therapy
    -
    Evidence for comparator
    Telaprevir (TVR), a directly acting antiviral (DAA) along with a backbone of alfa/RBV, is approved for treatment of chronic HCV GT-1 infection. The safety profile of TVR in subjects with chronic HCV GT-1 infection has been well characterized in both treatment-naive subjects and those with prior treatment failure to alfa-2a/RBV.

    Recruitment details
    The study was conducted at 85 sites in 13 countries.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    A total of 641 subjects were enrolled, out of which 444 subjects were randomized and 440 were treated; Reasons for not being randomized: subject withdrew consent (17), poor/non-compliance (1), subject no longer met study criteria (167) and other reasons (12).

    Arm description
    Subjects (treatment-naive or prior relapsers to alfa-2a/RBV) received daclatasvir (DCV) tablets 60 mg orally, once daily for 12 weeks, pegIFNlambda-1a injection 180 µg subcutaneously, once weekly and RBV tablets for a total daily dose of 1000-1200 mg orally twice daily for 24 weeks. Subjects were originally required to be followed-up for a minimum total period of 24 weeks post-treatment and subjects with any futility criteria or lack of efficacy [HCV RNA >=lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) at Week 48] were required to be followed-up for a period of 48 weeks post-treatment. Following the Sponsor’s decision to terminate the Lambda development program, the follow-up requirements for all study subjects irrespective of treatment response were modified to a total period of 12 weeks post-treatment .

At Week 24, subjects who achieved eRVR were discontinued from therapy versus subjects who failed to achieve eRVR yet continued to demonstrate benefit from therapy received an additional 24 weeks of pegIFNalfa-2a/RBV for a total treatment course of 48 weeks. Following discontinuation of study therapy, all subjects were originally planned to complete 24 weeks of post-treatment follow-up. Following the Sponsor’s decision to terminate the Lambda development program, the follow-up requirements for all study subjects irrespective of treatment response were modified to a total period of 12 weeks post-treatment.

    Percentage of Subjects With Sustained Virologic Response at Follow-up Week 12 (SVR12)
    End point description
    SVR12 was defined as Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA <LLOQ, target detected (TD) or target not detected (TND) at post-treatment follow-up Week 12. The LLOQ was 25 IU/mL. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory. The analysis was performed in Modified intent-to-treat (modified ITT) population, the numerator was based on subjects meeting the response criteria and denominator based on all treated subjects.

    End point description
    SVR12 was defined as HCV RNA <LLOQ, TD or TND at follow-up Week 12. The LLOQ was 25 IU/mL. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory. The analysis was performed in modified ITT population, the numerator was based on subjects meeting the response criteria and denominator based on all treated subjects. Here, number of subjects analysed signifies number of treatment-naïve subjects in each reporting arm.

    SVR24 was defined as HCV RNA levels <LLOQ, TD or TND at follow-up Week 24. The LLOQ was 25 IU/mL. HCV RNA levels were measured by the Roche COBAS® TaqMan® HCV Test version 2.0 from the central laboratory. The analysis was performed in observed population, the numerator was based on subjects meeting the response criteria and denominator based on treated subjects with HCV RNA at follow-up Week 24. Here, number of subjects analysed signifies number of treated subjects with HCV RNA at follow-up Week 24 in each reporting arm. The modified ITT analysis was not performed because not all subjects had the opportunity to reach follow-up Week 24 due to early study termination.

    Subjects (treatment-naive or prior relapsers to alfa-2a/RBV) received daclatasvir (DCV) tablets 60 mg orally, once daily for 12 weeks, pegIFNlambda-1a injection 180 µg subcutaneously, once weekly and RBV tablets for a total daily dose of 1000-1200 mg orally twice daily for 24 weeks. Subjects were originally required to be followed-up for a minimum total period of 24 weeks post-treatment and subjects with any futility criteria or lack of efficacy [HCV RNA >=lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) at Week 48] were required to be followed-up for a period of 48 weeks post-treatment. Following the Sponsor’s decision to terminate the Lambda development program, the follow-up requirements for all study subjects irrespective of treatment response were modified to a total period of 12 weeks post-treatment .

    Subjects (treatment-naive or prior relapsers to alfa-2a/RBV) received telaprevir tablets 375 mg orally, thrice daily for 12 weeks, pegIFNlalfa-2a injection 180 µg subcutaneously, once weekly and ribavirin tablets for a total daily dose of 1000-1200 mg orally twice daily for up to 48 weeks [duration of treatment based on eRVR response (HCV RNA < LLOQ at Weeks 4 and 12)]. At Week 24, subjects who achieved eRVR were discontinued from therapy versus subjects who failed to achieve eRVR yet continued to demonstrate benefit from therapy received an additional 24 weeks of pegIFNalfa-2a/RBV for a total treatment course of 48 weeks. Following discontinuation of study therapy, all subjects were originally planned to complete 24 weeks of post-treatment follow-up. Following the Sponsor’s decision to terminate the Lambda development program, the follow-up requirements for all study subjects irrespective of treatment response were modified to a total period of 12 weeks post-treatment.
