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
    This study is being done to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the drug combination grazoprevir (GZR; MK-5172) + elbasvir (EBR; MK-8742) taken once daily (q.d.) in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1, 4, or 6 infection and who have cirrhosis and Child-Pugh (CP) score 7-9 moderate hepatic insufficiency (CP-B). The primary hypothesis is that the percentage of HCV-infected participants with hepatic insufficiency (the CP-B population) achieving sustained viral response (SVR) 12 weeks after the end of all treatment (SVR12) will be greater than 60%. Additionally, ten non-cirrhotic (NC) HCV-infected GT1 participants will also be given GZR + EBR at the beginning of the study; this will be done for the purpose of collecting plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) data in HCV GT1-infected participants who do not have hepatic insufficiency.
    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.

    Mean change from baseline in Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores in CP-B participants
    End point description
    The MELD score provides an objective and granular assessment of liver improvement as a continuous variable. The calculation of MELD score is based on three biochemical variables (serum bilirubin, creatinine and international normalized ratio [INR] of prothrombin time). The MELD equation is as follows: 9.57 x ln(creatinine mg/dL) +3.78 x ln (bilirubin mg/dL) + 11.2 x ln(INR) + 6.43. Scores are multiplied by 10 and rounded to the nearest whole number and range from 6 (less ill) to 40 (gravely ill). MELD scores were determined at Baseline (Day 1) and again at Week 12, FU Week 12 (Week 24), and FU Week 24 (Week 36). Change from baseline in MELD score = Post-baseline MELD score - baseline MELD score.

    Amendment 1: Updated the laboratory exclusion criterion (EC) of platelets from < 40 x 10^3/μL to < 30 x 10^3/μL for CP-B participants and added the laboratory EC of creatinine clearance <30 mL/min for both populations.
    16 Apr 2014
    Amendment 2: Modified to indicate study will be discontinued if 3 or more CP-B participants in Part A have alanine transaminase (ALT) or aspartate transaminase (AST) elevations >5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) after treatment week (TW) 4.

    Amendment 3: Modified laboratory EC for CP-B participants including (1) albumin changed from <2.8 grams/deciliter [g/dL] to <2.2 g/dL; and (2) hemoglobin changed from <10.5 g/dL to <9.5 g/dL.
    02 Mar 2015
    Amendment 4: An exploratory objective was added to evaluate improvement in neurocognitive function from Day 1 to end of treatment (EOT), follow-up (FU) Week 12, and FU Week 24 in Part C (Part C was not conducted).

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? Yes
    Date
    Interruption
    Restart date
    09 Sep 2015
    Because the current development program is focused on a fixed dose combination product of 100 mg GZR + 50 mg EBR, it was decided not to proceed with the rest of the study. The study was terminated upon completion of Part A; no participants were enrolled in Parts B or C.
