Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed to confirm efficacy and safety of KW-136, an investigational anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) drug, combined with sofosbuvir for treatment of naive and experienced adults chronically infected with HCV. Three hundred and sixty (360) non-cirrhotic and cirrhotic subjects were medicated with KW-136 60 mg daily and sofosbuvir 400 mg daily. The treatment course lasted 12 successive weeks; thereafter all the study participants entered into a 12-week treatment-free follow-up period and an additional 12-week extension treatment-free follow-up period.


Clinical Trial Description

It is estimated that China has a population of over 10 million infected with HCV and also a highly variable HCV genotype geographic distribution. A simple, universal, non-genotype-specific treatment regimen is preferred for anti-HCV treatment in clinical practice and public health. KW-136 and sofosbuvir are potent anti-HCV agents targeting at different HCV proteins, namely, nonstructural protein 5A and 5B, respectively. The combination regimen of KW-136 and sofosbuvir is expected to completely suppress HCV replication in subjects chronically infected with HCV and achieve a sustained virologic response (SVR12), namely, HCV not detected or below a predefined limit in plasma, 12 or 24 weeks after cessation of treatment.

In a previous phase 2 exploratory study, an all-oral, ribavirin-free regiment of KW-136, an investigational HCV NS5A inhibitor, combined with sofosbuvir, demonstrated a ~99% SVR12 in treatment-naive adult subjects chronically infected with major genotypes of HCV found in China, including those with compensatory cirrhosis. This phase 3 study aimed to confirm the efficacy and safety of this combined regimen in a large scale of target patient population, including interferon-experienced subjects. This simple, uniform regimen is expected to be the solution to HCV eradication in China from the perspective of public health. ;
