Clinical Trial Summary

The interferon-free combination regimen of paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombitasvir with or without dasabuvir (ABBVIE REGIMEN) ± ribavirin (RBV) for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) has been shown to be safe and effective in randomized controlled clinical trials with strict inclusion and exclusion criteria under well-controlled conditions.

This observational study is the first effectiveness research examining the ABBVIE REGIMEN ± RBV, used according to the local label, under real-world conditions in Greece in a clinical practice patient population.

Description:

This was a prospective, multi-center observational study in participants receiving the interferon-free ABBVIE REGIMEN ± RBV. The prescription of a treatment regimen was at the discretion of the physician in accordance with local clinical practice and label, was made independently from this observational study and preceded the decision to offer the participant the opportunity to participate in this study. Adults chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV), receiving the interferon-free ABBVIE REGIMEN, were offered the opportunity to participate in this study during a routine clinical visit at the participating sites. Follow-up visits, treatment, procedures, and diagnostic methods followed physicians' routine clinical practice. Data were collected at the following time windows: baseline, early on-treatment visit, mid-treatment visit (for participants with treatment duration of 24 weeks), end of treatment (EoT), early post-treatment and 12 and 24 weeks after the end of treatment (representing sustained virologic response 12 weeks after the end of treatment [SVR12] and sustained virologic response 24 weeks after the end of treatment [SVR24]).

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Percentage of Participants Achieving Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks Post-treatment (SVR12)	SVR12 was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than 50 IU/mL 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug. The core population (CP) consisted of participants who met all inclusion criteria and were adequately treated according to the standard of care and within local label recommendations for their specific disease characteristics (cirrhotic status, genotype). The core population with sufficient follow-up data 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug (CPSFU12) was defined as all CP participants who fulfilled one of the following criteria: evaluable HCV RNA data =70 days after the last actual dose of the ABBVIE REGIMEN; an HCV RNA value =50 IU/mL at the last measurement post-baseline; HCV RNA <50 IU/mL at the last measurement post-baseline, but no HCV RNA measurement =70 days after the last actual dose of the ABBVIE REGIMEN due to reasons related to safety (e.g. dropped out due to AE) or virologic failure	12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Virologic Response at End of Treatment (EoT)	Virologic response was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than 50 IU/mL at the end of treatment.	Up to 24 weeks
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Relapse	Relapse was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than 50 IU/mL at the end of treatment followed by HCV RNA level greater than or equal to 50 IU/mL.	Up to 24 weeks
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Viral Breakthrough	Viral breakthrough was defined as at least 1 documented plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than 50 IU/mL followed by HCV RNA level greater than or equal to 50 IU/mL during treatment.	Up to 24 weeks
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With On-treatment Virologic Failure	On-treatment virologic failure was defined as breakthrough (at least 1 documented plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) less than 50 IU/mL followed by HCV RNA greater than or equal to 50 IU/mL during treatment) or failure to suppress (each measured on-treatment HCV RNA value greater than or equal to 50 IU/mL).	12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Meeting Relapse Criteria	Relapse was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) less than 50 IU/mL at end of treatment or at the last on-treatment HCV RNA measurement followed by HCV RNA greater than or equal to 50 IU/mL post-treatment.	12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Meeting Premature Study Drug Discontinuation Criteria	Premature study drug discontinuation was defined as participants who prematurely discontinued study drug with no on-treatment virologic failure.	12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With Missing Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks Post-Treatment (SVR12) Data and/or Nonresponders Who Did Not Meet Specific SVR12 Nonresponder Criteria	The number of participants with missing SVR12 data or SVR12 nonresponder participants who did not meet criteria for on-treatment virologic failure, relapse, premature treatment discontinuation, and who did not have an Insufficient virological response was documented.	12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug
