MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants Experiencing Treatment-Emergent Adverse EventsFirst dose date plus 30 daysTreatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as any adverse events (AEs) with an onset date on or after the study drug start date and no later than 30 days after permanent discontinuation of study drug.
Percentage of Participants Experiencing Treatment-Emergent Laboratory AbnormalitiesFirst dose date plus 30 daysA treatment-emergent laboratory abnormality was defined as an increase of at least 1 abnormality grade from baseline and occurring after the first dose of study drug and within 30 days after last study drug administration. The severity of laboratory abnormalities was assessed as Grade 0, 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), 3 (severe), or 4 (potentially life threatening).
Percentage Protein Binding of Velpatasvir2 or 3 hours post-dose on Day 1Mean velpatasvir protein binding (percentage free and percentage bound) was determined in all participants at 2 or 3 hours post-dose. Protein binding was assessed at Tmax whenever possible or at the time point closest to Tmax for each participant.

Outcome results

Primary

Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter of Velpatasvir: AUClast

AUClast is defined as the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration.

Time frame: Pre-dose (≤ 5 min), 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours post-dose on Day 1

Population: The PK analysis set included all enrolled and treated participants who have evaluable PK profiles for velpatasvir.

Comparison: A sample size of 8 evaluable participants in each renal function group (normal and severely impaired) will provide at least 80% power to reject the null hypothesis that participants with severe renal impairment have a minimum increase of 100% in AUC0-last, AUCinf, or Cmax of velpatasvir compared to participants with normal renal function.90% CI: [116.62, 190.49]
