Brief Summary:
This was a Phase 2/3, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and safety of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/RTV) with or without dasabuvir (DSV) and with or without ribavirin (RBV) in Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 or 4 (GT1 or GT4)-infected pediatric participants of ≥ 3 to 17 years of age.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Chronic Hepatitis C Infection Drug: Ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir Drug: Dasabuvir Drug: Ribavirin Drug: Ombitasvir mini tablet Drug: Paritaprevir mini tablet Drug: Ritonavir mini tablet Drug: Dasabuvir mini tablet Drug: Ribavirin solution Phase 2 Phase 3

Detailed Description:
The study population for Part 1, the PK study, included GT1-infected participants who were noncirrhotic and treatment-naïve (TN). Part 2, the safety and efficacy study, included GT1 or GT4-infected participants who were TN or interferon ([IFN] or Pegylated-interferon alfa-2a or 2b [pegIFN] with or without RBV) treatment-experienced (TE) without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis. In Part 1 and Part 2, the treatment regimen and duration were dependent on HCV GT, GT1 subtype, and cirrhosis status.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Part 1: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ombitasvir (OBV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    Cmax is the peak concentration that a drug or drug metabolite achieves in a specified compartment after the drug has been administrated and before administration of a second dose.

  2. Part 1: Concentration of Drug in Blood Plasma Over Time [Area Under the Curve (AUC)] of Ombitasvir (OBV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    AUC is a measure of how long and how much drug is present in the body after dosing. The amount of ombitasvir present was measured up to 24 hours after dosing.

  3. Part 1: Lowest Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) of Ombitasvir (OBV) [ Time Frame: At Weeks 2 and 8 ]
    Minimum plasma concentration (Ctrough; measured in ng/mL) was directly determined from the concentration-time data.

  4. Part 1: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Paritaprevir (PTV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    Cmax is the peak concentration that a drug or drug metabolite achieves in a specified compartment after the drug has been administrated and before administration of a second dose.

  5. Part 1: Concentration of Drug in Blood Plasma Over Time [Area Under the Curve (AUC)] of Paritaprevir (PTV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    AUC is a measure of how long and how much drug is present in the body after dosing. The amount of paritaprevir present was measured up to 24 hours after dosing.

  6. Part 1: Lowest Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) of Paritaprevir (PTV) [ Time Frame: At Weeks 2 and 8 ]
    Minimum plasma concentration (Ctrough; measured in ng/mL) was directly determined from the concentration-time data.

  7. Part 1: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Dasabuvir (DSV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    Cmax is the peak concentration that a drug or drug metabolite achieves in a specified compartment after the drug has been administrated and before administration of a second dose.

  8. Part 1: Concentration of Drug in Blood Plasma Against Time [Area Under the Curve (AUC)] of Dasabuvir (DSV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    AUC is a measure of how long and how much drug is present in the body after dosing. The amount of dasabuvir present was measured up to 12 hours after dosing. For two subjects in the 15-29 kg group, the 24 h concentration was used as the 12 h concentration due to the significant sampling time deviation. For one subject in the 30-44 kg group, the 24 h concentration was used as the 12 h concentration due to the significant sampling time deviation.

  9. Part 1: Lowest Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) of Dasabuvir (DSV) [ Time Frame: At Weeks 2 and 8 ]
    Minimum plasma concentration (Ctrough; measured in ng/mL) was directly determined from the concentration-time data.

  10. Part 1: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Ritonavir (RTV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    Cmax is the peak concentration that a drug or drug metabolite achieves in a specified compartment after the drug has been administrated and before administration of a second dose.

  11. Part 1: Concentration of Drug in Blood Plasma Over Time [Area Under the Curve (AUC)] of Ritonavir (RTV) [ Time Frame: At Week 2 ]
    AUC is a measure of how long and how much drug is present in the body after dosing. The amount of ritonavir present was measured up to 24 hours after dosing.

  12. Part 1: Lowest Plasma Concentration (Ctrough) of Ritonavir (RTV) [ Time Frame: At Weeks 2 and 8 ]
    Minimum plasma concentration (Ctrough; measured in ng/mL) was directly determined from the concentration-time data.
