A randomized, open-labeled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of three experimental drugs (ABT-450, ABT-267 and ABT-333) compared with Telaprevir (a licenced product) in people with hepatitis C virus (HCV) who have not had treatment before. "Experimental" means that they have not been approved by any regulatory agency for sale to the public.

A Randomized, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ABT-450/Ritonavir/ABT-267 and ABT-333 Co-administered with and without Ribavirin Compared to Telaprevir Co-administered with Pegylated Interferon a-2a and Ribavirin in Treatment-Naïve Adults with Chronic Hepatitis C Genotype 1 Virus Infection (MALACHITE I)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objectives of this study are to demonstrate that treatment with ABT-450/r/ABT-267 and ABT-333 administered with or without RBV has non-inferior efficacy (the percentage of subjects achieving SVR12, HCV RNA < LLOQ 12 weeks following treatment) compared to treatment with telaprevir and pegIFN/RBV and to compare the safety of the regimens in treatment-naive HCV genotype (GT) 1a- and 1b-infected adults without cirrhosis.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of this study are to compare the following between treatment with Arm A (3 DAAs with RBV) and treatment with Arm B (telaprevir with pegIFN/RBV) within HCV subgenotype 1a, and between treatment with Arm C (3 DAAs with RBV) or D (3 DAAs without RBV), and treatment with Arm E (telaprevir with pegIFN/RBV) in HCV subgenotype 1b: ? change from baseline to the Final Treatment Visit in general health-related quality of life using the SF-36 Mental Component Summary (superiority), ? change from baseline to the Final Treatment Visit in general health-related quality of life using the SF-36 Physical Component Summary scores (superiority), ? the percentage of subjects achieving SVR12 ? the percentage of subjects with virologic failures during treatment and the percentage of subjects with relapse post-treatment.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the percentage of subjects with SVR12.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 weeks after last dose of study drug

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1. QOL assessed by SF-36 instrument, 2. Percentage of subjects with SVR12 between the different treatment arms, 3. Percentage of subjects with virologic failure during treatment and with post-treatment relapse;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. 12 weeks after first dose of study drug 2. 12 weeks after last dose of study drug 3. 24, 36 and 48 weeks after last dose of study drug
