IDX719 + RTVEXPERIMENTALParticipants take IDX719 150 mg once daily (QD) + ritonavir 30 mg QD on Days 1-7, and then take IDX719 150 mg QD + simeprevir 75 mg QD + TMC647055 450 mg QD + RTV 30 mg QD on Days 8-14.
Simeprevir/TMC647055 + RTVEXPERIMENTALParticipants take simeprevir 75 mg QD + TMC647055 450 mg QD + RTV 30 mg QD on Days 1-7, and then take IDX719 150 mg QD + simeprevir 75 mg QD + TMC647055 450 mg QD + RTV 30 mg QD on Days 8-14.
Group A: IDX719 then IDX719/SimeprevirEXPERIMENTALHealthy participants take IDX719 150 mg once daily (QD) on Days 1-7 and IDX719 150 mg QD + simeprevir 150 mg QD on Days 8-14.
Group B: Simeprevir then IDX719/SimeprevirEXPERIMENTALHealthy participants take simeprevir 150 mg QD on Days 1-7 and IDX719 150 mg QD + simeprevir 150 mg QD on Days 8-14.
Group C: IDX719EXPERIMENTALHealthy participants take IDX719 150 mg QD on Days 1-14.
Group D: IDX719/SimeprevirEXPERIMENTALParticipants from Groups A and B will be asked to return for Group D. Participants take IDX719 and simeprevir QD on Days 1-7 to determine the impact of food on single-dose (on Day 1) and steady state (Day 7) PK.
Group E: High-Fat then Low-Fat PKEXPERIMENTALParticipants from Group C will return to determine the PK of IDX719 after high-fat (Day 1) and low-fat (Day 7) meals (Days 2-6 are drug-free washout).
Group F: Low-Fat then High-Fat PKEXPERIMENTALParticipants from Group C will return to determine the PK of IDX719 after low-fat (Day 1) and high-fat (Day 7) meals (Days 2-6 are drug-free washout).
Group A: Healthy ParticipantsEXPERIMENTALHealthy participants take IDX719 (5 mg - 100 mg) or matching placebo by mouth as either 1 single dose or as 7 daily doses.
Group B: HCV ParticipantsEXPERIMENTALTreatment-naive participants infected with HCV genotype (GT) 1, GT2, or GT3 take IDX719 (1 mg - 100 mg) or matching placebo as either 1 single dose or as 7 daily doses.

Frequently asked questions about IDX719

What is IDX719 used for?

IDX719 is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C infection. It is a nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) inhibitor, which means it targets the NS5A protein of the hepatitis C virus to interfere with viral replication. The drug is currently in Phase 1 clinical development.

What does IDX719 target?

IDX719 targets the nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) of the hepatitis C virus. By inhibiting this protein, the drug aims to disrupt the viral replication process. This mechanism is being studied in the context of chronic hepatitis C infection, where the goal is to reduce or eliminate the virus from the body.

Who makes IDX719?

IDX719 is being developed by Merck & Company, Inc., a pharmaceutical company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol MRK. The drug is currently in Phase 1 clinical trials, and Merck is conducting studies to evaluate its safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in healthy volunteers and patients with chronic hepatitis C.

What phase is IDX719 in?

IDX719 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not been approved by regulatory authorities and is still being studied in clinical trials. All Phase 1 trials for IDX719 have been completed, with no active trials currently ongoing.

What clinical trials is IDX719 in?

IDX719 has been studied in four completed Phase 1 clinical trials. These include NCT01508156, which evaluated the drug in healthy and HCV-infected participants; NCT01813513 and NCT01907724, which assessed drug-drug interactions with other hepatitis C medications; and NCT01919125, which examined pharmacokinetics in participants with normal and impaired hepatic function.

Is IDX719 the same as MK-1894?

Yes, IDX719 is also known as MK-1894. The clinical trials for this drug are registered under the MK-1894 protocol numbers, such as MK-1894-001, MK-1894-004, MK-1894-007, and MK-1894-008. Both names refer to the same investigational NS5A inhibitor being developed by Merck for chronic hepatitis C.
