Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Incidence Of Sustained Virologic Response 4 Weeks (SVR4) After The Completion Of Treatment
Four weeks after the completion of treatment

Incidence of SVR4 after the completion of dosing, reported as hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid less than the lower limit of quantification, in participants who received active treatment (sovaprevir and ACH-0143102 in combination with RBV) as compared to those who received placebo.

Safety And Tolerability Of 12 Weeks Of Sovaprevir And ACH-3102 In Combination With RBV In GT-1 HCV Participants
12 weeks

To determine the safety and tolerability of 12 weeks of sovaprevir/ACH-0143102/RBV treatment in participants with chronic genotype-1 (GT-1) HCV, the following criteria will be used: the number of participants with discontinuations due to adverse events (AEs), treatment-emergent Grade 3/Grade 4 (G3/G4) AEs, treatment-emergent G3/G4 laboratory abnormalities, and clinically significant electrocardiograms (ECGs).

Segment 1: Safety
4 weeks

Segment 1: Percentage of participants with the following: adverse events, abnormal laboratory safety tests, dose reductions, interruptions, and discontinuations. Criteria for abnormal laboratory safety tests: treatment-emergent worsening Division of AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) (DAIDs) graded laboratory tests. A summary of serious and all other non-serious adverse events regardless of causality is located in the Reported Adverse Events module.

Segment 1: Rapid Viral Response At Week 4 (RVR4)
4 weeks

The primary efficacy endpoint for Segment 1 of the study was the percentage of participants in each treatment group achieving RVR4 (hepatitis C virus \[HCV\] ribonucleic acid (RNA) less than or equal to the limit of quantitation \[LOQ\] at the Week 4 visit).

Segment 2: Safety
12 weeks

Segment 2: Percentage of participants with the following: adverse events, abnormal laboratory safety tests and dose reductions, interruptions and discontinuations. Criteria for abnormal laboratory safety tests: treatment-emergent worsening DAIDs graded laboratory tests. A summary of serious and all other non-serious adverse events regardless of causality is located in the Reported Adverse Events module.

Segment 2: Complete Early Virologic Response (cEVR)
Week 12

The primary efficacy endpoint for Segment 2 of the study was the percentage of participants achieving cEVR, defined as undetectable HCV RNA at Week 12.

Frequently asked questions about Sovaprevir

What is Sovaprevir used for?

Sovaprevir is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of chronic Hepatitis C. It was studied in a Phase 2 clinical trial in treatment-naive patients with genotype-1 Hepatitis C virus. The drug is not approved and remains in clinical development.

Who makes Sovaprevir?

Sovaprevir is being developed by AstraZeneca PLC, a biopharmaceutical company traded on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol AZN. The company is conducting clinical research on this investigational drug for chronic Hepatitis C.

What phase is Sovaprevir in?

Sovaprevir is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 2 trial, which was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The drug is investigational and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What clinical trials is Sovaprevir in?

Sovaprevir has one completed clinical trial registered as NCT01849562. This Phase 2 study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 12 weeks of Sovaprevir combined with ACH-3102 and ribavirin in 30 treatment-naive participants with genotype-1 chronic Hepatitis C.

Is Sovaprevir the same as ACH-3102?

No, Sovaprevir is not the same as ACH-3102. In the clinical trial NCT01849562, Sovaprevir was studied in combination with ACH-3102 and ribavirin. Sovaprevir is a separate investigational drug being developed by AstraZeneca for chronic Hepatitis C.
