Abstract #81

Background

•  The 3D regimen includes: –  ABT-450 - a potent NS3/4A protease inhibitor.

•  Co-dosing of ABT-450 with ritonavir (r; ABT-450/r) increases the peak, trough, and overall drug exposures of ABT-450, to allow once daily dosing

–  Ombitasvir - a potent NS5A inhibitor

–  Dasabuvir - a non-nucleoside NS5B polymerase inhibitor

Fried M, et al. Abstract #81, AASLD 2014

Study Objectives

•  To evaluate the impact of baseline demographic, viral, and disease characteristics on treatment outcomes in patients with compensated cirrhosis

•  Data were derived from TURQUOISE-II: A large, international, phase 3 trial in patients with compensated cirrhosis that evaluated the safety and efficacy of 3 DAAs (3D) + ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naïve and treatment-experienced genotype 1 (GT1)-infected patients

Logistic Regression for Predictors of Not Achieving SVR12

•  Three factors were significantly associated (p<0.05) with lower rates of SVR12 in a logistic regression model

•  Importantly, demographics (eg, age, gender, race, BMI, diabetes), viral factors (baseline HCV RNA), disease related factors (albumin, platelets) were not associated with lower SVR rates

Variable P Value

IL28B TT genotype 0.021 Prior null response 0.038 HCV GT1a 0.046

Fried M, et al. Abstract #81, AASLD 2014

Conclusions:

• GT 1a patients without cirrhosis benefit from RBV inclusion in 12 week treatment regimen (SVR12=96%)

• GT 1a patients with cirrhosis achieved SVR12 rates >90% with 3D + RBV regimen

– Difference between 12 and 24 week duration?

Conclusions

•  96% of this group of 513 patients with compensated cirrhosis achieved an SVR

• Among treatment-experienced patients, 12 weeks of LDV/SOF resulted in a 90% SVR rate

– Adding RBV or extending treatment duration increased this rate to ≥96%

Summary

•  SVR12 was 92% (23/25) in null responders with cirrhosis treated for 12 weeks with grazoprevir + elbasvir + RBV

•  High efficacy was achieved regardless of the presence or absence of RBV or extended treatment duration from 12 to 18 weeks

•  Grazoprevir + elbasvir were generally safe and well tolerated
