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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 was a Phase 3b, open-label, non-randomized, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1 – 6 infection without liver cirrhosis or with compensated liver cirrhosis and with chronic renal impairment in participants who were either HCV treatment-naïve (TN) or prior treatment-experienced (TE) with interferon (IFN) or pegylated interferon (PegIFN) with or without ribavirin (RBV), or sofosbuvir (SOF) plus RBV with or without pegIFN. The study included a 42-day screening period, a treatment period of either 8, 12, or 16 weeks, and a 24-week post-treatment period. The duration of treatment was determined by product labeling.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Prior to the initiation of any screening or study-specific procedures, the investigator or his or her representative explained the nature of the study to the subject or his or her representative and answered all questions regarding this study.

    The study enrollment was monitored to meet the following non-mutually exclusive enrollment criteria: (1) up to approximately 40 subjects with Stage 3b chronic kidney disease (CKD), (2) up to approximately 75 hepatitis C virus genotype 1 (HCV GT1)-infected subjects, (3) up to approximately 30 subjects with compensated cirrhosis.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Subjects were HCV treatment-naive (no prior dose of any approved or investigational regimen) or treatment-experienced HCV genotype 1 – 6-infected adult male and female subjects with or without compensated cirrhosis, who had CKD Stage 3b, 4, or 5.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    20 Jan 2017
    Amendment 1 • Removed the lab test soluble erythropoietin receptor (sEpoR) • Clarified the timing and process around distributing the dosing card to subjects • Removed hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) testing from Day 1 • Removed the word "separate" from the Subject Information and Consent section as the optional pharmacogenetic informed consent form (ICF) may have been included in the Main ICF • Corrected an administrative error to show that Study Drug would not be dispensed at Screening, but instead at Day 1, and that study drug accountability and review of study drug adherence would not occur at Screening; clarified that Hepatitis C testing would occur at Screening as well as Hepatitis B and HIV testing; removed HBsAg testing on Day 1.
    27 Jul 2017
    Amendment 2 • Updated the method for the calculation of the two-sided 95% CI for the primary efficacy endpoint to use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution, unless the number of SVR12 non-responders was less than 5, where the Wilson score method would be used • Clarified that all prohibited medications had to be discontinued 14 days or 10 half-lives prior to initiating GLE/PIB and could be resumed 14 days after last dose of study drug • Clarified that any historical presence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was exclusionary; also clarified that prior or current empiric use of lactulose/rifaximin for neurologic indications was exclusionary • Clarified the Screening procedures for HCC in the Screening period, treatment period, and post-treatment period • Clarified when protocol deviations were to be reported to regulatory authorities
    30 Jan 2018
    Amendment 3 • Clarified that serum samples for tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) would not be collected and analyzed. Instead, the Archive Plasma samples collected throughout the study would be analyzed for TNF-α • Corrected analyses of the signature amino acid position of HCV GT3 • Clarified that Hematology/Chemistry/Coagulation would only be performed if the subject discontinued prior to post-treatment Week 4 unless the patient was cirrhotic, in which case labs were to be collected to test international normalized ratio (INR), total bilirubin, and albumin in the post-treatment period
