Experimental: Open-label eltrombopag
Open-label eltrombopag with dose titrations to support adequate platelet counts.
|
Drug: Eltrombopag
Eltrombopag starting at 25 mg dose and titrated in Part 1 of study to 50, 75, 100 mg. Platelet count must reach sufficient level to allow initiation of antiviral therapy. Eltrombopag dose may be adjusted during antiviral treatment phase of study to maintain platelet count to continue antiviral therapy without adjustment to antiviral dose.

- Number of Participants With Any Adverse Event (AE) and Any Serious Adverse Event (SAE) in Part 1 [ Time Frame: From the start of investigational product up to the start of antiviral therapy (up to 9 weeks; median of 21 days) ]An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, may jeopardize the participant or require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed, or is an event of possible drug-induced liver injury. Refer to the general AE/SAE module for a list of AEs and SAEs.
- Number of Participants With Any AE and Any SAE in Part 2 [ Time Frame: From the date of initiation of antiviral therapy (Antiviral Baseline Visit [between Study Day 14 and Study Day 65]) to the completion of the follow-up period (up to Week 96/WD) ]An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, may jeopardize the participant or require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed, or is an event of possible drug-induced liver injury. Refer to the general AE/SAE module for a list of AEs and SAEs.
- Number of Participants With the Indicated Worst-case Division of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (DAIDS) Grade Increases From Screening for the Indicated Clinical Chemistry Parameters During Part 1 [ Time Frame: From Screening up to the start of antiviral therapy (up to 9 weeks; median of 21 days) ]Blood samples were collected for the measurement of clinical chemistry parameters. The DAIDS grades are utilized for measuring the severity of AEs. Grade 1, mild; Grade 2, moderate; Grade 3, severe; Grade 4, potentially life threatening.
- Number of Participants With the Indicated Worst-case DAIDS Grade Increases From the Antiviral Baseline Visit for the Indicated Clinical Chemistry Parameter During Part 2 [ Time Frame: From Day 0 of Part 2 (Antiviral Baseline Visit [between Study Day 14 and Study Day 65) to the completion of the follow-up period (up to Week 96/WD) ]Blood samples were collected for the measurement of clinical chemistry parameters. The DAIDS grades are utilized for measuring the severity of AEs. Grade 1, mild; Grade 2, moderate; Grade 3, severe; Grade 4, potentially life threatening.
- Number of Participants With the Indicated Worst-case DAIDS Grade Increases From Screening for the Indicated Hematology Parameters During Part 1 [ Time Frame: From Screening up to the start of antiviral therapy (up to 9 weeks; median of 21 days) ]Blood samples were collected for the measurement of hematology parameters. The DAIDS grades are utilized for measuring the severity of AEs. Grade 1, mild; Grade 2, moderate; Grade 3, severe; Grade 4, potentially life threatening.
- Number of Participants With the Indicated Worst-case DAIDS Grade Increases From the Antiviral Baseline Visit for the Indicated Hematology Parameters During Part 2 [ Time Frame: From Day 0 of Part 2 (Antiviral Baseline Visit [between Study Day 14 and Study Day 65) to the completion of the follow-up period (up to Week 96/WD) ]Blood samples were collected for the measurement of hematology chemistry parameters. The DAIDS grades are utilized for measuring the severity of AEs. Grade 1, mild; Grade 2, moderate; Grade 3, severe; Grade 4, potentially life threatening.
- Number of Participants With a Decrease in Visual Acuity During Parts 1 and 2 [ Time Frame: From the start of investigational product up to the 24-week follow-up visit after the last dose in Part 2 or early withdrawal (up to 96 weeks) ]Visual acuity (VA) is defined as acuteness or clearness of vision.
- Number of Participants With the Indicated Change in logMAR Scale Values During Parts 1 and 2 [ Time Frame: From the start of investigational product up to the 24-week follow-up visit after the last dose in Part 2 or early withdrawal (up to 96 weeks) ]LogMAR (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) charts are used to measure an individual's visual acuity. LogMAR, expressed as the (decadic) logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (range from +1.00 to -0.30), converts the geometric sequence of a traditional chart to a linear scale. As there are 5 letters per line, the total score for a line on the LogMAR chart represents a change of 0.1 log units.
- Number of Participants With a logMAR Change >=0.15 During Parts 1 and 2 [ Time Frame: From the start of investigational product up to the 24-week follow-up visit after the last dose in Part 2 or early withdrawal (up to 96 weeks) ]LogMAR (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) charts are used to measure an individual's visual acuity. LogMAR, expressed as the (decadic) logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (range from +1.00 to -0.30), converts the geometric sequence of a traditional chart to a linear scale. As there are 5 letters per line, the total score for a line on the LogMAR chart represents a change of 0.1 log units.
- Platelet Counts at the Indicated Time Points [ Time Frame: From the start of investigational product up to the 24-week follow-up visit after the last dose in Part 2 or early withdrawal (up to 96 weeks) ]Blood samples were collected for the measurement of platelet count. For each participant, the duration of Part 1 treatment varies between 2 and 9 weeks.
- Number of Particpants Who Initiated Antiviral Therapy [ Time Frame: From the start of the investigational product up to 9 weeks (median of 21 days) ]The number of participants who completed the Pre-antiviral Phase (Part 1) and proceeded to the Antiviral Phase (Part 2) are summarized.
- Number of Participants Achieving Antiviral Treatment Milestones of Sustained Virological Response (SVR), Rapid Virological Response (RVR), Early Virological Response (EVR), and End of Treatment Response (ETR) [ Time Frame: From the start of investigational product in Part 2 up to the 24-week follow-up visit after the last dose in Part 2 or early withdrawal (up to 96 weeks) ]SVR is defined as non-detectable Hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) at 24 weeks post-completion of the planned treatment period (i.e., Week 48 or 72 for genotype 2/3 or Week 72 for non-genotype 2/3). RVR is defined as undetectable HCV RNA after 4 weeks of antiviral treatment. EVR is defined as clinically significant reduction in HCV RNA (>=2 log10 drop or undetectable) after 12 weeks of antiviral treatment. ETR is defined as undetectable HCV RNA at the end of antiviral treatment.
