Exclusion criteria
* Patients with HCV and HBV co-infection, patients who came to cirrhosis due to causes other than HCV or HBV, or patients whose cause of cirrhosis is unknown * Patients with esophageal gastric varices determined to be treated by endoscopic examination at screening * Patients with complication or previous history of primary liver cancer (excluding those who have had more than one year of hepatocarcinoma resection / radiofrequency ablation) * Merger of malignant tumor or past patients (within 3 years before screening). However, the following diseases are excluded: treated basal cell carcinoma, treated lung intraepithelial carcinoma, treated cervical carcinoma, or control superficial (not invasive) bladder carcinoma * Patients who can not be denied HIV, HTLV-1 or syphilis * Serum creatinine value: Patients with more than 1.5 times the upper limit of the facility reference value * Patients with poor control of diabetes, hypertension or heart failure * Patients with psychiatric diseases judged to have the potential to influence the implementation of clinical trials * Patients who have severe allergy to or contrast media * Patients with HCV who have not passed the following period after treatment for HCV cirrhosis at registration. * 12 weeks after the final administration of interferon * 16 weeks after final administration of Ribavirin * 16 weeks after final administration of DAA * Patients whose dosage regimen was changed within 12 weeks prior to enrollment * Patients who have history of drug or alcohol intoxication within 5 years before acquiring informed consent or who have history of drug or alcohol abuse within the past year * Patients who participated in other clinical trials and clinical trials within 30 days prior to acquisition of consent, patients who used investigational drugs or investigational equipment * Patients who received liver transplantation or other organ transplantation (including bone marrow transplantation) and patients who are difficult to intravenously administer * Patients whose liver biopsy is expected to be difficult to perform * Patients who are pregnant or nursing, or who are likely to become pregnant * Male patients who do not obtain consent to contraception from the time of acquiring informed consent until the end of 12 weeks after the administration of investigational drug * In addition, patients investigated by investigators or clinical trial doctors as judged unsuitable for this trial
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Serious side effect expression rate | 12 weeks after administration | (Phase I)Serious side effect expression rate |
| liver tissue fibrosis area ratio by liver biopsy | 12 weeks after administration | (Phase II) Amount of change from the baseline in liver tissue fibrosis area ratio by liver biopsy at 12 weeks after administration |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of occurrence of side effects | 12 weeks after administration | Percentage of occurrence of side effects after PRI-724 treatment |
| Pharmacokinetic parameter | 12 weeks after administration | Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) |
| Child Pugh score | 12 weeks after administration | Amount of change from baseline of Child-Pugh Score at 12 weeks after administration Child Pugh score (scale range 5-15) is obtained by adding the score for each parameter (encephalopathy, ascites, bilirubin, albumin, PT or INR). |
| MELD score | 12 weeks after administration | Amount of change from baseline for MELD score at 12 weeks after administration The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) is a scoring system for assessing the severity of chronic liver disease and uses the subject's values for total bilirubin, serum creatinine, and the international normalized ratio (INR) for prothrombin time to predict survival. MELD is calculated according to the following formula: MELD = 3.78×ln\[serum bilirubin (mg/dL)\] + 11.2×ln\[INR\] + 9.57×ln\[serum creatinine (mg/dL)\] + 6.43 |
| modified Histological Activity Index (HAI) by liver biopsy | 12 weeks after administration | Change amount from baseline of modified Histological Activity Index (HAI) by liver biopsy at 12 weeks after administration |
| liver stiffness from Fibro Scan | 12 weeks after administration | Amount of change from measurement of liver stiffness by baseline from Fibro Scan at 12 weeks after administration |
| Adverse Event Expression Ratio | 12 weeks after administration | Adverse Event Expression Ratio after PRI-724 treatment |
