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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    1) To evaluate the efficacy of each treatment arm of grazoprevir (MK-5172) in combination with ribavarin (RBV) for 12 or 24 weeks as assessed by the percentage of participants achieving SVR12 (Sustained Virologic Response 12 weeks after the end of all study therapy), defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) <25 IU/mL (either "target detectable but unquantifiable" [TD(u)] or "target not detected" [TND]) 12 weeks after the end of all study therapy. 2) To evaluate the safety and tolerability of grazoprevir in combination with RBV.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research. The following additional measure defined for this individual study was in place for the protection of trial subjects: Peg-IFN (1.5 μg/kg/wk) + RBV (weight-based) was offered as rescue therapy to any participant who met the criteria for virologic failure and futility or discontinued study medications due to safety concerns that were not attributed to RBV. Participants had to start on rescue within 4 months from the time of discontinuing therapy or within 4 months of follow-up week 24 in case of relapse, if indicated.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    A total of 26 treatment-naïve, non-cirrhotic, adult participants with HCV genotype 1 were recruited in Australia, Israel, and New Zealand.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Participants received grazoprevir + RBV for either 12 weeks or 24 weeks (participants in the 12-week arm with detectable HCV RNA at Treatment Week [TW] 4 received 12 additional weeks of study treatment). The allocation of participants to the 2 arms was stratified according to HCV GT1a vs. GT1b infection.

    End point description
    An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition that is temporally associated with the use of the Sponsor’s product, is also an adverse event. Data are presented according to actual treatment duration (12 weeks or 24 weeks) regardless of participants' initial arm assignment.

    Time to achievement of first undetectable HCV RNA
    End point description
    The mean time (in days) to first achievement of undetectable HCV RNA was assessed using Kaplan-Meier plot and summary statistics. HCV RNA levels in plasma were measured using the Roche COBAS™ Taqman™ HCV Test, v2.0® assay on blood samples drawn from each participant at Week 2, Week 4, Week 12, and at end of treatment. The assay has a lower limit of quantification of 25 IU/mL and a limit of detection of 9.3 IU/mL. Undetectable HCV RNA was defined as below the limit of detection of 9.3 IU/mL.
