Safety Exposure-Response Analysis for Daclatasvir, Asunaprevir, and Beclabuvir Combinations in HCV-Infected Subjects.

ABSTRACT: The combination regimen of daclatasvir, asunaprevir, and beclabuvir has been developed for the treatment of hepatitis C virus infection. The objectives of this analysis were to characterize the relationship between the exposures of the daclatasvir, asunaprevir, and beclabuvir regimen and liver-related laboratory elevations (Grade 3 or 4 alanine aminotransferase [ALT] and total bilirubin [Tbili]), and to evaluate the impact of selected covariates on the exposure-response relationships. The exposure-response analysis was performed with data from 1 phase 2 and 3 phase 3 studies in hepatitis C virus-infected subjects. The probability of liver-related laboratory elevations were modeled using linear logistic regression. Selected covariates were tested using a forward-addition and backward-elimination approach. The final model for ALT elevation included Asian race, body weight in non-Asian subjects, and asunaprevir exposure. The final model for Tbili elevation included Asian race, fibrosis score (F0-F3 or F4) and asupanprevir exposure. Asian subjects had greater the Grade 3 or 4 ALT and Tbili elevation rates than non-Asians. The Grade 3 or 4 ALT elevation rate increased with decreasing body weight in non-Asian subjects. Subjects with F4 fibrosis score had a higher rate of Grade 3 or 4 Tbili elevation compared to subjects with F0 to F3 fibrosis score. Higher asunaprevir exposure was associated with increases in Grade 3 or 4 ALT and Tbili elevation rates; however, the impact on the ALT elevation was not clinically relevant and the effect on Tbili elevation was smaller than the other significant covariates.

Project description:AimTo assess daclatasvir plus asunaprevir (DUAL) in treatment-naïve patients from mainland China, Russia and South Korea with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b infection.MethodsPatients were randomly assigned (3:1) to receive 24 wk of treatment with DUAL (daclatasvir 60 mg once daily and asunaprevir 100 mg twice daily) beginning on day 1 of the treatment period (immediate treatment arm) or following 12 wk of matching placebo (placebo-deferred treatment arm). The primary endpoint was a comparison of sustained virologic response at posttreatment week 12 (SVR12) compared with the historical SVR rate for peg-interferon plus ribavirin (70%) among patients in the immediate treatment arm. The first 12 wk of the study were blinded. Safety was assessed in DUAL-treated patients compared with placebo patients during the first 12 wk (double-blind phase), and during 24 wk of DUAL in both arms combined.ResultsIn total, 207 patients were randomly assigned to immediate (n = 155) or placebo-deferred (n = 52) treatment. Most patients were Asian (86%), female (59%) and aged < 65 years (90%). Among them, 13% had cirrhosis, 32% had IL28B non-CC genotypes and 53% had baseline HCV RNA levels of ≥ 6 million IU/mL. Among patients in the immediate treatment arm, SVR12 was achieved by 92% (95% confidence interval: 87.2-96.0), which was significantly higher than the historical comparator rate (70%). SVR12 was largely unaffected by cirrhosis (89%), age ≥ 65 years (92%), male sex (90%), baseline HCV RNA ≥ 6 million (89%) or IL28B non-CC genotypes (96%), although SVR12 was higher among patients without (96%) than among those with (53%) baseline NS5A resistance-associated polymorphisms (at L31 or Y93H). During the double-blind phase, aminotransferase elevations were more common among placebo recipients than among patients receiving DUAL. During 24 wk of DUAL therapy (combined arms), the most common adverse events (≥ 10%) were elevated alanine aminotransferase and upper respiratory tract infection; emergent grade 3-4 laboratory abnormalities were infrequently observed, and all grade 3-4 aminotransferase abnormalities (alanine aminotransferase, n = 9; aspartate transaminase, n = 6) reversed within 8-11 d. Two patients discontinued DUAL treatment; one due to aminotransferase elevations, nausea, and jaundice and the other due to a fatal adverse event unrelated to treatment. There were no treatment-related deaths.ConclusionDUAL was well-tolerated during this phase 3 study, and SVR12 with DUAL treatment (92%) exceeded the historical SVR rate for peg-interferon plus ribavirin of 70%.
