Background & AimsSafety and tolerability of peginterferon-based hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection therapy remains suboptimal, even when direct-acting antiviral agents are added. This study assessed the efficacy, safety and tolerability of mericitabine combined with ritonavir-boosted danoprevir (danoprevir/r)ribavirin for up to 24weeks in treatment-naive HCV genotype (G)1 infected patients. MethodsPatients received twice daily mericitabine (1000mg) and danoprevir/r (100mg/100mg) plus either ribavirin (1000/1200mg/day; Arm A) or placebo (Arm B) for 12 or 24weeks. Patients with HCV RNA <43IU/ml between Weeks 2 and 8 and HCV RNA <15IU/ml at Week 10 were rerandomized (1:1) at Week 12 to discontinue/continue assigned regimens until Week 24. Because of unacceptable relapse rates in both 12-week arms and in ribavirin-free Arm B, treatment was extended to 24weeks and patients in Arm B received peginterferon alfa-2a/ribavirin. The primary outcome was sustained virological response 24weeks after end of treatment (SVR24). ResultsIn Arm A, the SVR24 rate in patients receiving 24weeks of therapy was 37.9% (25/66); 63.6% (14/22) in G1b and 25.0% (11/44) in G1a patients. Virologic breakthrough and relapse were associated with danoprevir-resistant virus in most cases. The mericitabine-resistance mutation (NS5BS282T) was detected in two patients bearing dual resistant virus NS3 R155K/NS5B S282T and dual resistance mutation L159F/L320F in one patient. Treatment was safe and well tolerated. ConclusionsMericitabine, danoprevir/r plus ribavirin for 24weeks were safe and well tolerated. However, SVR rates were poor, achieving rates of only 25.0% in G1a and 63.6% in G1b patients.
