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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   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 aim of the study was to confirm efficacy and safety of treatment with 600 milligram (mg) of BID (twice daily) Deleobuvir (DBV) in combination with 120 mg QD (once daily) Faldaprevir (FDV) and Ribavirin (RBV) for 16 or 24 weeks in chronically infected hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT)1b treatment-naïve patients, including a separate group of patients with compensated cirrhosis who were treated open-label for 24 weeks. The primary objective was to determine if minimum historical target sustained virologic response at week 12 (SVR12) rates of 71% could be achieved by the combination treatments of DBV, FDV and RBV in GT1b patients, including patients with compensated cirrhosis. The comparison with historical control was framed as a statistical superiority test.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were to be entered in the study. All subjects were free to withdraw from the clinical trial at any time for any reason given. Close monitoring of all subjects was adhered to throughout the trial conduct. Rescue medication was allowed for all patients as required.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 It was planned that approximately 800 patients would be screened in order to randomize and treat approximately 460 patients (195 in treatment Groups 1 and 2 each, 40-70 in group 3). Treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C infection of GT1b were included in the trial. Patients with compensated liver cirrhosis were assigned to Group 3.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 All subjects were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Subjects attended specialist sites which would then ensure that the subject met all strictly implemented inclusion/exclusion criteria. Subjects were not to be randomised to trial treatment if any one of the specific entry criteria were violated.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: Baseline characteristics are based on patients who were randomised after successfully completing the screening period and received at least one of the trial medication.

SVR12, was assessed based on the observed HCV RNA result taken at least 10 weeks after treatment discontinuation. This definition was also applied to patients who discontinued treatment early: if the patient had HCV RNA undetected at least 10 weeks after stopping all treatment, they were considered a responder in the primary analysis. This is the primary analyses of the primary endpoint.The primary analyses of efficacy were carried out on an intent-to-treat basis including all randomized patients who were dispensed study medication and were documented to have taken at least one dose of study medication (FAS).

    Date
    Amendment
    03 Dec 2012
    Excluded patients with GT1a IL28b CC; Removed stratification by sub-GT and IL-28b; Extended safety data collection at rescue to 4 weeks after the end of rescue therapy; Removed protein electrophoresis at screening; Revised sample size to 195 patients for Group 1, 195 patients for Group 2 and 40-70 patients for Group 3, based on exclusion of GT1a patients.
    04 Jul 2013
    Redefined the minimum historical target SVR12 rates from a point estimate of 71% for the lower bound of the CI (original protocol) to a weighted average of 66% (PegIFN-eligible) where 1/2 CI is approximately 6%; Added power calculations for comparison to the historical control; Added increased ECG monitoring based on preliminary results from 1241.25; Added monitoring for appearance of systemic symptoms of DRESS and criteria for treatment discontinuation in case of potentially lifethreatening skin reactions; Added PK trough samples for all patients in the trial; Added second confirmation in case of virologic breakthrough; clarified the confirmation process; Clarified procedures related to rescue medication; Added details on the assessment of liver progression assessment; Revised SAE reporting processes based on updated sponsor SOP; Added IgE assessment for mild rash events.
    30 Oct 2013
    Changed the order of primary and secondary objectives; Re-defined the minimum historical target SVR12 rates. Specified a hierarchical order for primary and secondary objective testing; Updated power calculation for the primaryanalysis based on the proposed sample size; Specified collection of all SAEs with onset date after 28 days post-EOT until EOO. Defined residual effect period. Extended safety reporting during follow-up period; Added potential risk of agranulocytosis/neutropenia; Added discontinuation of patients with ANC≤500 cells/mm3; Clarified SAE reporting requirements.
    03 Apr 2014
    Due to termination of the DBV program, the FU period was reduced to 24 weeks for patients who achieved SVR12, and to 48 weeks for SVR12 nonresponders provided they had not started an alternative HCV treatment; Follow-up of rescue treatment was reduced to RFU1 at REOT+12 weeks; FU3 snapshot was removed.

    Interruptions (globally)
    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats
    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    BI stopped further development of DBV, the Follow-up period was reduced. First outcome measure: statistical analysis for one group are defined and analysed, due to the platform limitations those could not be provided (results in ct.gov NCT01732796)
