Simplifying Hepatitis C Antiviral Therapy in Rwanda for Elsewhere in the Developing World

NCT02964091•Partners in Health

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a medication, ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF), used to treat individuals with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) in Rwandan adults. A sub-cohort of participants will have limited laboratory monitoring to determine the minimum laboratory tests necessary.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label single arm study that will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir fixed dose combination administered for 12 weeks in HCV treatment-naive and treatment-experienced participants with chronic genotype 1 or 4 HCV infection. Approximately 240 participants will be enrolled and treated with sofosbuvir (SOF) 400 mg/LDV 90 mg fixed dose combination (FDC) one tablet once daily for 12 weeks in the SHARED 1 study. Sixty additional participants will be enrolled in the SHARED 2 sub-cohort with laboratory monitoring blinded to study clinicians.
