Randomized, Phase 2b Open-Label Study (AI443-014)

• Patients: treatment-naive, stratified by GT 1a/1b and presence of biopsy-confirmed cirrhosis (82% GT1a and 9% cirrhotics).

• Primary end point: HCV RNA < LLOQ 12 weeks post-treatment (SVR12)

– Observed analysis: breakthrough, relapse, addition of pegIFNα/RBV = failure

– Modified intent-to-treat analysis: missing, breakthrough, relapse or addition of pegIFNα/RBV = failure

Conclusions

• In treatment-experienced patients with advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis, either RBV or GS-9669 may enhance the efficacy of SOF/LDV given for 12 weeks

• The optimal duration of SOF/LDV in treatment-naïve GT 1 patients, even with the addition of RBV, is more than 6 weeks

• Regimens of SOF/LDV alone, or with RBV or GS-9669, were safe and well tolerated

Background and Aims

• ABT-450 is an HCV protease inhibitor

(dosed with ritonavir 100 mg, ABT-450/r)

• ABT-267 is an NS5A inhibitor

• Both compounds have shown potent antiviral

activity in vitro against HCV genotypes (GT)

1-4 and 6.

Conclusions

• SOF + PEG/RBV for 12 weeks demonstrated high efficacy in treatment-experienced GT 2/3 patients who have historically low response rates and limited treatment options

– SVR rates were similar in patients with and without cirrhosis

• SOF + PEG/RBV was generally safe and well tolerated

– Safety profile consistent with PEG/RBV treatment

– Low discontinuation rates

• Two patients with transient HIV viral breakthrough– Both with documented nonadherance to ART

• No decrease in CD4 T-cell % with SOF treatment– Decrease in absolute CD4 T-cell number consistent with ribavirin-mediated decrease in

lymphocyte countsSulkowski MS, et al. Abstract #212, AASLD 2013

Background

• Reinfection of the transplanted liver is universal in patients who are serum

HCV RNA-positive at the time of transplantation

• Recurrence of HCV is the most common cause of mortality and graft loss

following transplantation

– 10–50% of patients with recurrent infection progress to cirrhosis within 5 years1

• Once cirrhosis is established, the probability of liver graft failure is 42%

within 12 months2

• Current therapies for HCV treatment used after transplantation have poor

tolerance, poor efficacy, severe adverse reactions, and significant

interactions with immunosuppression medications1. Berenguer M, et al. Clin Liver Dis 2007;11:355–76; 2. Berenguer M, et al. Hepatology 2002;36:202-10.

Study Design and Objectives

• Patients with recurrent HCV post-liver transplant, all genotypes

• Low, ascending-dose RBV regimen starting at 400 mg/day, escalated based on hemoglobin levels

• Study objectives– Primary: sustained virologic response 12 weeks post treatment with

sofosbuvir + RBV in liver transplant recipients – Secondary: safety, tolerability and viral kinetics

SOF 400 mg + RBV 400‒1200 mg (N=40) SVR12
