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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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 primary objective was to determine if the administration of a combination of sofosbuvir (SOF; GS-7977) and ribavirin (RBV) to HCV-infected subjects with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) meeting the MILAN criteria prior to undergoing liver transplantation could prevent post-transplant re-infection as determined by a sustained post-transplant virological response (HCV RNA < lower limit of quantitation [LLOQ]) at 12 weeks post-transplant.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The protocol and consent/assent forms were submitted by each investigator to a duly constituted Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB) for review and approval before study initiation. All revisions to the consent/assent forms (if applicable) after initial IEC/IRB approval were submitted by the investigator to the IEC/IRB for review and approval before implementation in accordance with regulatory requirements. This study was conducted in accordance with recognized international scientific and ethical standards, including but not limited to the International Conference on Harmonization guideline for Good Clinical Practice (ICH GCP) and the original principles embodied in the Declaration of Helsinki.

    Virologic failure (VF) in the pretransplant phase was defined by: • Breakthrough (HCV RNA ≥ 25 IU/ml after having previously had HCV RNA < 25 IU/ml, while on treatment), • Rebound (breakthrough or > 1 log10 IU/ml increase in HCV RNA from nadir while on treatment), • Non-response (HCV RNA ≥ 25 IU/ml through 8 weeks of treatment), • Pre-transplant relapse (HCV RNA ≥ 25 IU/ml during the Pre-Transplant off-treatment follow-up period after having achieved HCV RNA < 25 IU/ml at last observed HCV RNA on treatment). Analysis Population Descriptions: On-treatment VF: Full Analysis Set. Posttreatment/Pretransplant VF - 24 Weeks or 48 Weeks: Participants who completed 24 or 48 weeks of treatment and had an observed or imputed Week 4 posttreatment follow-up HCV RNA value relapsed during posttreatment follow-up were analyzed.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    08 Feb 2012
    The sponsor information was updated to Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Gilead) throughout the document. Section numbers were updated to reflect the Gilead protocol template. The study design and study assessments were clarified. A pharmacogenomic substudy was added to the protocol for subjects who provided their separate and specific consent. The retreatment substudy was added for subjects who experienced posttreatment virologic relapse during the pretransplant treatment phase so they could start a new course of SOF+RBV therapy (after confirmation of no resistance-conferring mutations) for up to an additional 24 weeks of treatment or until transplantation, whichever occurred first. Toxicity management of elevated bilirubin values was added at the request of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
    22 Mar 2012
    Updated the monitoring of adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs) to occur during the primary treatment period through 30 days after the last dose of study drug. Updated the duration of collection of concomitant medications and vital signs from through posttransplant follow-up Week 48 to 30 days after the last dose of study drug. Updated and clarified reporting requirements and procedures for AEs and SAEs. Added the definition and reporting procedures for special situations. Special situations were defined in the clinical study protocol as pregnancy reports, reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, or overdose, lack of effect reports, reports of adverse reactions in infants following exposure from breastfeeding, and reports of adverse reactions associated with product complaints. However, due to implementation issues, only pregnancy reports and overdose were collected during the study.
    21 Aug 2012
    Updated birth control inclusion/exclusion criteria per FDA request. Clarified collection of safety laboratories and assessments 30 days after the last dose of study drug. Updated background information according to available data. Removed requirement for study drug dosing in the clinic on days of study visits after the baseline/Day 1 visit.
    22 Jan 2013
    Allowed subjects to continue therapy for up to 48 weeks or until the time of transplant, whichever occurred first. Subjects who had not received a transplant (except those who discontinued study treatment for safety or virologic reasons) at approval of protocol Amendment 4 participated in the pretransplant retreatment phase, which was formerly named the retreatment substudy. Replaced the SOF 200-mg tablets with a single tablet formulation of the SOF 400-mg dose if the supply of 200-mg tablets was depleted. However, the SOF 400-mg tablet was not needed during the study. Removed prohibition of rifaximin (a concomitant medication commonly used to manage the symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy), which is not absorbed when taken orally and, therefore, has a low possibility of interaction with SOF.
