  • A positive HCV RNA test result (result generated at least 6 months before the baseline visit)
  • A HCV genotype test result (result generated at least 6 months before the baseline visit)
  • A liver biopsy report demonstrating chronic HCV
  • ---The subject is initiating antiviral therapy with a sofosbuvir regimen as indicated below:
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Sofosbuvir plus peginterferon and ribavirin for 12 weeks (peginterferon eligible genotype 1, 4, 5, or 6)
  • Sofosbuvir plus ribavirin for 12 weeks (genotype 2)
  • Sofosbuvir plus ribavirin for 24 weeks (peginterferon ineligible or unwilling genotype 1 or genotype 3)
  • The subject is at least 18 years of age at the time of enrollment
  • Adequate medical records are available for collection of protocol-defined demographics, baseline patient characteristics, medical history, virology and specific laboratory results, and other information to verify enrollment criteria

Who cannot join

  • Subjects with history or evidence of decompensated liver disease
  • Subjects with severe renal impairment or end stage renal disease
  • Subjects who are not naïve to HCV therapy with prior exposure to an approved or experimental HCV antiviral therapy
  • Subject has characteristics that are contraindicated in the FDA approved label for sofosbuvir (eg, subjects with contraindications applicable to peginterferon and/or ribavirin, pregnant woman or men whose female partners are pregnant; Sovaldi Package Insert 2013)
  • Subject is receiving treatment pre- or post-transplant

About this study

Official title: Collection of Plasma and Serum Samples From Individuals Initiating Therapy With Sofosbuvir for Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection for the Clinical Evaluation of the Aptima HCV Quant Dx Assay

This non-interventional clinical study will be conducted to prospectively collect serial plasma and serum samples from treatment naïve subjects with chronic HCV infection who are initiating sofosbuvir-based therapy. These samples will be used to estimate clinical utility endpoints for the Aptima HCV Quant Dx assay which is used an aid in the management of HCV-infected patients undergoing HCV antiviral therapy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sustained viral response based on lower limit of quantitation

    Sustained viral response (SVR) is defined as viral load level being below the investigational assay's lower limit of quantitation.

    Measured: 12 weeks post therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatitis C, run by Hologic, Inc. at 34 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 34 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sustained viral response based on lower limit of quantitation (time frame: 12 weeks post therapy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Feb 2016.
