Hepatitis C Virus | Drug: ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir Drug: ribavirin | Phase 3 |
This is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter study evaluating the safety and efficacy of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir coadministered with RBV for 12, 16, or 24 weeks in HCV genotype 4 (GT4)-infected participants with compensated cirrhosis who are either treatment-naïve or who had previously received only IFN/RBV treatment for HCV.
The study also enrolled HCV GT4-infected participants with compensated cirrhosis who had previously experienced virologic failure with either SOF/pegIFN/RBV or sofosbuvir (SOF)/RBV treatment. These participants were treated with ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir coadministered with RBV for 24 weeks in this study.
This study was divided into 2 parts with approximately 184 total participants. Part I included participants who were randomized to receive either 12 or 16 weeks of treatment and Part II included participants who received 24 weeks of treatment. Enrollment into Part II opened once randomization in Part I was completed.

- Percentage of Participants in Arms A, B and C With Sustained Virologic Response 12 Weeks Post-treatment (SVR12) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug ]SVR12 was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than the lower limit of quantification (<LLOQ) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
- Percentage of Participants With SVR12 in Participants Receiving 12 Weeks (Arm A) of Treatment Compared to Participants Receiving 16 Weeks of Treatment (Arm B) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug ]SVR12 was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than the lower limit of quantification [<LLOQ]) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
- Percentage of Participants With SVR12 in Participants Receiving 16 Weeks (Arm B) of Treatment Compared to Participants Receiving 24 Weeks of Treatment (Arm C) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug ]SVR12 was defined as plasma hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than the lower limit of quantification [<LLOQ]) 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug.
- Percentage of Participants in Arms A, B and C With On-treatment Virologic Failure [ Time Frame: Up to Treatment Week 24 (end of treatment) or premature discontinuation from treatment ]On-treatment virologic failure was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ after HCV RNA < LLOQ during treatment; confirmed increase of > 1 log(subscript)10(subscript) IU/mL above the lowest value post-baseline in HCV RNA during treatment; or all on-treatment values of HCV RNA >= LLOQ with at least 6 weeks of treatment.
- Percentage of Participants in Arms A, B and C With Post-treatment Relapse [ Time Frame: From the end of treatment through 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug ]Post-treatment relapse was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ LLOQ between the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug among participants with HCV RNA levels < LLOQ at the end of treatment.
