E.2 Objective of the trial

E.2.1

Main objective of the trial

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety of 12 weeks of treatment with ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 with and without RBV, and to show the non-inferiority in SVR12 rates (the percentage of subjects achieving a 12-week sustained virologic response, SVR12, [HCV RNA < LLOQ 12 weeks following therapy]) of both arms to the historical SVR rate of telaprevir plus pegIFN and RBV.

E.2.2

Secondary objectives of the trial

The secondary objectives of this study are:
- To compare the percentage of subjects with a decrease in hemoglobin to below the lower limit of normal (LLN) by the end of treatment with ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 with RBV and without RBV;
- To show the superiority in SVR12 rates of 12 weeks of treatment with ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 with and without RBV to the historical SVR rate of telaprevir plus pegIFN and RBV therapy;
- To show the non-inferiority in SVR12 rates of 12 weeks of treatment with ABT-450/r/ABT-267, and ABT-333 without RBV (3 DAA/12) to 12 weeks of treatment with ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 with RBV (3 DAA/RBV/12);
- To summarize the percentage of subjects with virologic failure during treatment and the percentage of subjects with relapse post-treatment in each of the treatment groups.

(1) SVR12: non inferiority of Arm 2 to the historical rate for telaprevir plus pegIFN/RBV.
(2) SVR12: non inferiority of Arm 1 to the historical rate for telaprevir plus pegIFN/RBV

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

12 weeks after last dose of study drugs

E.5.2

Secondary end point(s)

The secondary efficacy endpoints included in the fixed-sequence are:
(3) Comparison of the percentage of subjects with a decrease in hemoglobin to below the lower limit of normal (LLN) at the end of treatment with ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 with RBV versus without RBV.
(4) SVR12: Superiority of Arm 1 to the historical rate for telaprevir plus pegIFN/RBV
(5) SVR12: Superiority of Arm 2 to the historical rate for telaprevir plus pegIFN/RBV
(6) SVR12: Non-inferiority of Arm 2 to Arm 1.

Other secondary endpoints not included in the fixed sequence are:
● The percentage of subjects in each treatment group with virologic failure during treatment (defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after HCV RNA < LLOQ during treatment or confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ at the end of treatment), and
● The percentage of subjects in each treatment group with post-treatment relapse (defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ between end of treatment and 12 weeks after the last dose of study drugs among subjects completing treatment and with HCV RNA < LLOQ at the end of treatment).

Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)

All subjects who receive at least one dose of active DAA may be offered participation in an AbbVie-sponsored observational study to evaluate the durability of virologic response. Subjects receiving active DAA and who do not achieve and maintain virologic suppression, or relapse, may be offered another AbbVie-sponsored treatment study including ABT-450/r + ABT 267 + pegIFN/RBV. Subjects may also be offered another non-AbbVie treatment as determined appropriate by the investigator.
