• All patients were previously treated with PEG+RBV and an investigational
protease inhibitor (GS-9451 or GS-9256) +/- one or two additional DAA
– Tegobuvir (NS5b non-nucleoside polymerase inhibitor)
– Ledipasvir (NS5a inhibitor)
• No patients had documented cirrhosis as per the prior protocols

• Three quarters (74%) of DAAs-experienced patients achieved an SVR
with 12 weeks of SOF + PEG/RBV therapy despite multiple resistance
variants and prior courses of therapy
• The presence of baseline RAVs against any or all 3 non structural
proteins (NS3, NS5a, NS5b) did not impact overall SVR
• The 12-week SOF + PEG/RBV regimen was safe and well tolerated
• Sofosbuvir-containing regimens are effective in these patients with no
other currently approved alternatives

• Retreatment with an extended duration of SOF + RBV to 24 weeks or
the addition of IFN to a 12 week regimen resulted in high SVR rates in
GT 2 and GT 3 patients who previously failed SOF+RBV-containing
regimens
• The 12-week regimen containing IFN had higher overall rates of SVR
and was more effective in patients with cirrhosis
• The 24-week IFN-free regimen was safe and well tolerated and offers a
retreatment option for those ineligible to receive IFN

• SMV/SOF QD led to SVR12 rates of 93-100% (ITT)
in HCV GT 1 infected treatment-naïve and prior
null-responder patients with METAVIR F3-4
• SVR12 rates were high, regardless of baseline
characteristics:
– HCV GT 1 subtype, Q80K polymorphism, METAVIR score,
IL28B GT, prior treatment history
• SMV/SOF QD +/- RBV was safe and well tolerated
• Two Phase 3 trials investigating SMV/SOF without
RBV are ongoing (OPTIMIST-1 and -2)

• LDV/SOF for 12 weeks achieved SVR12 rate of 99% in
treatment-naive GT 1 patients
– Adding RBV and/or extending LDV/SOF treatment duration to 24 weeks did not
increase SVR12 rates
– Cirrhotic patients achieved SVR12 rates of 94 - 100% with 12-24 weeks of
treatment with LDV/SOF with or without RBV
• LDV/SOF with or without RBV was safe and well tolerated
– Addition of RBV contributed to higher incidence of AEs and laboratory
abnormalities
• A single tablet regimen with the fixed-dose combination LDV/SOF for

• Single tablet fixed dose combination of LDV/SOF with or without RBV
in treatment-experienced GT 1 patients resulted in an SVR of 94 -99%
• Baseline NS5a or NS3/4 mutations had no effect on SVR
• RBV did not enhance SVR rates, alter viral kinetics or prevent relapse
• The majority of subjects who relapsed had cirrhosis
• LDV/SOF ± RBV was safe and well tolerated
– Addition of RBV contributed to higher incidence of AEs and laboratory
abnormalities

• No difference in efficacy among the groups was observed
• Host and viral factors traditionally associated with lower
SVR rates did not affect SVR12 rates
• LDV/SOF ± RBV was safe and well tolerated

The ITT SVR12 rate was 96.2% (455/473) for treatmentnaïve GT1-infected patients receiving 12 weeks of coformulated ABT-450/r/ombitasvir + dasabuvir + RBV
SVR12 rates (ITT) were high regardless of HCV subtype
The rate of virologic failure was low:
– 0.2% breakthrough rate
– 1.5% relapse rate
The regimen was generally well-tolerated, with a low rate
of study drug discontinuation due to AE(s) (0.6%)

• First dedicated trial of IFN-free regimen in cirrhotic patients,
including patients often ineligible for clinical trials
(low platelets, low albumin, radiographic ascites)
• SVR rates of 92% to 96% with 12 and 24 weeks of
treatment, with high SVR rates in all subgroups analyzed
• 12 or 24 weeks of treatment were similarly well tolerated,
with low rates of treatment discontinuation
• Efficacy and safety in this large cirrhotic population is similar
to non-cirrhotics treated with the same regimen

• All-oral DCV + ASV therapy achieved SVR12 rates up to
91% in treatment-naive, 82% in nonresponder, and 83% in
ineligible/intolerant patients with genotype 1b
– SVR12 rates were similar in non-cirrhotic (85%) and cirrhotic (84%)
patients
– No differences by age, gender, race, IL28B genotype, or prior
IFN/RBV treatment experience
• DCV + ASV was generally safe and well tolerated
– Only 2% of patients discontinued treatment due to adverse events
• DCV is being further evaluated in all-oral combinations in
multiple patient populations of high unmet need
