NCT02249182

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the PK Lead-in Phase of the study is to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) and confirm the dose of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed dose combination (FDC) in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected pediatric participants. The PK Lead-in Phase will also evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of 10 days of dosing of LDV/SOF FDC in HCV-infected pediatric participants. The Treatment Phase will be initiated by age cohort after confirmation of age-appropriate LDV/SOF FDC dosage levels. Participants from the PK Lead-in Phase will immediately rollover into the Treatment Phase with no interruption of study drug administration. The primary objective of the Treatment Phase is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of LDV/SOF FDC +/- ribavirin (RBV) for 12 or 24 weeks in pediatric participants with HCV. During screening, participants will receive placebo to match LDV/SOF FDC to assess ability to swallow tablets.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • For Participants in the PK Lead-in Phase, Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: AUCtau of GS-331007 (Metabolite of SOF), LDV, and SOF

    AUCtau is defined as concentration of drug over time (the area under the concentration verses time curve over the dosing interval).

    Cohorts 1 and 2 (6 to < 18 years of age): predose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 12 hours postdose on Day 10; Cohort 3 (3 to < 6 years of age): predose, 0.5, 2, 4, 8, and 12 hours postdose on Day 10

  • Percentage of Participants Who Permanently Discontinued Any Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event During the PK Lead-in Phase or the Treatment Phase

    Up to 24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (18)

  • For Participants in the PK Lead-in Phase, Change From Baseline in HCV RNA

    Baseline; Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12

  • Percentage of Participants Who Permanently Discontinued Any Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event During the PK Lead-in Phase

    Up to Day 10

  • For the Treatment Phase, Percentage of Participants With Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) at 4 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR4)

    Posttreatment Week 4

  • For the Treatment Phase, Percentage of Participants With SVR at 12 Weeks After Discontinuation of Therapy (SVR12)

Study Arms (3)

12 to < 18 Years Old

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants between 12 to \< 18 years of age weighing ≥ 45 kg will receive LDV/SOF FDC (90/400 mg tablet or 4 x 22.5 mg/100 mg tablets or 8 x 11.25/50 mg granules based on swallowability assessment during screening). Treatment duration will be dependent on HCV genotype, prior treatment experience, cirrhosis status, and country of enrollment. United Kingdom: * HCV genotypes (GT) 1, 4, 5, or 6 treatment-naive (TN) with or without cirrhosis = LDV/SOF 12 weeks * HCV GT 1, 4, 5, or 6 treatment-experienced (TE) without cirrhosis = LDV/SOF 12 weeks * HCV GT 1, 4, 5, or 6 TE with cirrhosis = LDV/SOF 24 weeks * HCV GT 3 TE with or without cirrhosis = LDV/SOF+RBV 24 weeks United States/Australia/New Zealand: * HCV GT 1, 4, 5, or 6 TN with or without cirrhosis = LDV/SOF 12 weeks * HCV GT 1, 4, 5, or 6 TE without cirrhosis = LDV/SOF 12 weeks * HCV GT 1 TE with cirrhosis = LDV/SOF 24 weeks * HCV GT 4, 5, or 6 TE with cirrhosis = LDV/SOF 12 weeks

Drug: LDV/SOFDrug: RBV
