Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety of Alisporivir Triple Therapy in Chronic Hepatitis C Genotype 1 Treatment-naïve Participants (NCT NCT01318694)

NCT ID: NCT01318694

Last Updated: 2016-09-30

Results Overview

SVR12 was defined as hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA laboratory value below the level of quantification (\< LOQ; i.e., 25 IU/ml) 12 weeks after the end of treatment.

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Study phase

PHASE3

Target enrollment

1081 participants

Primary outcome timeframe

12 weeks after the end of treatment

Participant Flow

Of the 1580 patients screened at multiple global sites, 1081 (68.4%) were randomized and 499 (31.6%) discontinued from the study prior to randomization.

Due to mis-randomization, four patients did not have a baseline visit and never started study medications. They were included in screened and randomized, but excluded from the Full Analysis Set and the Safety Set.
