Trial design

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Pharmacokinetic, Therapy, Safety, Efficacy

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of BEM + RZR. To evaluate the efficacy of BEM + RZR as assessed by the proportion of subjects achieving sustained virologic response at 12 weeks post-treatment (SVR12).

Secondary objectives 2

  1. To evaluate the efficacy of BEM + RZR, as assessed by the proportion of subjects experiencing virologic failure (either on-treatment or posttreatment relapse [by 12 weeks post-treatment]).
  2. To evaluate the efficacy of BEM + RZR as assessed by the proportion of subjects achieving sustained virologic response at 24 weeks posttreatment (SVR24).

  4. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening and at Day 1 prior to dosing
  5. Subjects must be direct-acting antiviral (DAA)-treatment-naïve, defined as never exposed to an approved or experimental DAA for HCV
  6. Documented medical history compatible with chronic HCV
  7. Liver disease staging assessment as follows: - Absence of cirrhosis (F0 to F3); - Compensated cirrhosis (F4)

Exclusion criteria 10

  1. Female subject is pregnant or breastfeeding
  2. Co-infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV; positive for hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg]) and/or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  3. Abuse of alcohol and/or illicit drug use that could interfere with adherence to study requirements as judged by the investigator

  5. Use of other investigational drugs within 30 days of dosing or plans to enroll in another clinical trial of an investigational agent while participating in the present study
  6. Subject with known allergy to the study medications or any of their components
  7. History or signs of decompensated liver disease: ascites, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, or other clinical signs of portal hypertension or hepatic insufficiency
  8. Cirrhotic and has a Child-Pugh score >6, corresponding to a Child-Pugh Class B or C

Endpoints

Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)

Primary endpoints 1

  1. The primary efficacy endpoint is SVR12. The proportion of subjects achieving SVR12 with two-sided 95% CIs using the Wilson score method will be presented. Reasons for failure to achieve SVR12 will be summarized.

Secondary endpoints 2

  1. The proportion of subjects in the PP population experiencing virological failure (either on-treatment or post-treatment relapse by 12 weeks post treatment) will be estimated and presented with 95% CIs.
  2. The proportion of subjects in the PP population achieving SVR24 will be analyzed using the same method as SVR12.
