丙型肝炎新药Technivie(ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir[中文药名:翁比他韦、帕利瑞韦和利托那韦的结合片剂])获FDA准批准
2015年7月27日,艾伯维(AbbVie)丙肝药物获美国FDA已批准Technivie(ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir)联合利巴韦林(RBV)用于未发生肝硬化的基因型4丙肝(GT-4 HCV)成人患者的治疗。此次批准,使Technivie联合RBV疗法成为首个也是唯一一个用于基因型4丙肝的全口服、无干扰素、直接作用的鸡尾酒疗法,同时也标志着该基因型丙肝临床治疗的重大进步。Technivie联合RBV治疗12周,将提供一种治愈率(SVR12)达100%的治疗选择。需要注意的是,Technivie不推荐用于中度肝功能损害的患者(Child-Pugh B级)。
Technivie是一种全口服抗病毒药物,由固定剂量paritaprevir/ritonavir(150mg/100mg)与ombitasvir(25mg)复配而成。Technivie每日口服一次,在进餐时服药,同时配合利巴韦林(1000mg或1200mg,根据体重调整,每日2次)。
之前,FDA已于2014年授予Technivie突破性药物资格,并通过优先审查程序进行了审批。Technivie的获批,是基于IIb期PEARL-I研究的数据。该研究在135例基因型4丙肝成人患者中开展,其中初治组(n=42/42)及既往经聚乙二醇干扰素(pegIFN)联合RBV治疗失败的经治组(n=49/49)接受Technivie联合利巴韦林(RBV)治疗12周,取得了100%的治愈率(SVR12)。此外,接受Technivie单药治疗(无RBV)的初治组SVR12也达到了91%(n=40/44),该治疗组有1例患者(2%)在治疗期间发生病毒学爆发,2例患者(5%)在治疗后病情复发。其他治疗组未发生病毒学失败。
值得一提的是,Technivie(ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir,25mg/150mg/100mg)中的3种活性药物成分也存在于艾伯维推出的全口服丙肝鸡尾酒疗法Viekira Pak,后者由固定剂量ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir(25mg/150mg/100mg,每日一次)和dasabuvir(250mg,每日两次)组成,于2014年12月获FDA批准用于基因型1丙肝成人患者。
据美国疾病控制中心(CDC)估计,在美国丙肝患者多达270万,约为艾滋病患者的2倍多。丙肝主要分为6个基因型(基因型1-6,GT 1-6),其中基因型1是美国最主要的丙肝类型,约占74%,而基因型4仅占6%左右,而且在历史上被认为是最难治疗的丙肝类型。不过,在全球范围内,基因型4丙肝患者总数高达3400万,是埃及、中东及非洲地区最主要的丙肝类型,约占这些地区丙肝病例的80%。这也意味着,美国以外的市场,将是艾伯维丙肝新药Technivie一个难得的突破口。

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
5.1 Risk of Hepatitis B Virus Reactivation in Patients Coinfected with HCV and HBV
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation has been reported in HCV/HBV coinfected patients who were undergoing or had completed treatment with HCV direct acting antivirals, and who were not receiving HBV antiviral therapy. Some cases have resulted in fulminant hepatitis, hepatic failure and death. Cases have been reported in patients who are HBsAg positive and also in patients with serologic evidence of resolved HBV infection (i.e., HBsAg negative and anti-HBc positive). HBV reactivation has also been reported in patients receiving certain immunosuppressant or chemotherapeutic agents; the risk of HBV reactivation associated with treatment with HCV direct-acting antivirals may be increased in these patients.
HBV reactivation is characterized as an abrupt increase in HBV replication manifesting as a rapid increase in serum HBV DNA level. In patients with resolved HBV infection reappearance of HBsAg can occur. Reactivation of HBV replication may be accompanied by hepatitis, i.e., increases in aminotransferase levels and, in severe cases, increases in bilirubin levels, liver failure, and death can occur.
Test all patients for evidence of current or prior HBV infection by measuring HBsAg and anti-HBc before initiating HCV treatment with TECHNIVIE. In patients with serologic evidence of HBV infection, monitor for clinical and laboratory signs of hepatitis flare or HBV reactivation during HCV treatment with TECHNIVIE and during post-treatment follow-up. Initiate appropriate patient management for HBV infection as clinically indicated.
5.2 Risk of Hepatic Decompensation and Hepatic Failure in Patients with Cirrhosis
TECHNIVIE is not indicated in patients with cirrhosis.
Hepatic decompensation and hepatic failure, including liver transplantation or fatal outcomes, have been reported postmarketing in patients treated with ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir with and without dasabuvir and with and without ribavirin. Most patients with these severe outcomes had evidence of advanced cirrhosis prior to initiating therapy. Reported cases typically occurred within one to four weeks of initiating therapy and were characterized by the acute onset of rising direct serum bilirubin levels without ALT elevations in association with clinical signs and symptoms of hepatic decompensation. Because these events are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Discontinue treatment in patients who develop evidence of hepatic decompensation.
TECHNIVIE is contraindicated in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B and C) [see Contraindications (4), Adverse Reactions (6.2), Use in Specific Populations (8.6), and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
5.3 Increased Risk of ALT Elevations
During clinical trials with ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir with or without dasabuvir and with or without ribavirin, elevations of ALT to greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) occurred in approximately 1% of subjects [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. ALT elevations were typically asymptomatic, occurred during the first 4 weeks of treatment, and declined within two to eight weeks of onset with continued dosing.
These ALT elevations were significantly more frequent in female subjects who were using ethinyl estradiol-containing medications such as combined oral contraceptives, contraceptive patches or contraceptive vaginal rings. Ethinyl estradiol-containing medications must be discontinued prior to starting therapy with TECHNIVIE [see Contraindications (4)]. Alternative methods of contraception (e.g., progestin only contraception or non-hormonal methods) are recommended during TECHNIVIE therapy. Ethinyl estradiol-containing medications can be restarted approximately 2 weeks following completion of treatment with TECHNIVIE.
Women using estrogens other than ethinyl estradiol, such as estradiol and conjugated estrogens used in hormone replacement therapy had a rate of ALT elevation similar to those not receiving any estrogens. Due to the limited number of subjects taking these other estrogens in clinical studies, caution is warranted for co-administration with TECHNIVIE [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
Hepatic laboratory testing should be performed during the first 4 weeks of starting treatment and as clinically indicated thereafter. If ALT is found to be elevated above baseline levels, it should be repeated and monitored closely:
Patients should be instructed to consult their health care professional without delay if they have onset of fatigue, weakness, lack of appetite, nausea and vomiting, jaundice or discolored feces.
Consider discontinuing TECHNIVIE if ALT levels remain persistently greater than 10 times the ULN.
Discontinue TECHNIVIE if ALT elevation is accompanied by signs or symptoms of liver inflammation or increasing direct bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, or INR.
5.4 Risks Associated With Ribavirin Combination Treatment
The warnings and precautions for ribavirin, in particular the pregnancy avoidance warning, apply to this combination regimen. Refer to the ribavirin prescribing information for a full list of the warnings and precautions for ribavirin.
5.5 Risk of Adverse Reactions or Reduced Therapeutic Effect Due to Drug Interactions
The concomitant use of TECHNIVIE and certain other drugs may result in known or potentially significant drug interactions, some of which may lead to:
Loss of therapeutic effect of TECHNIVIE and possible development of resistance
Possible clinically significant adverse reactions from greater exposures of concomitant drugs or components of TECHNIVIE.
See Table 4 for steps to prevent or manage these possible and known significant drug interactions, including dosing recommendations [see Drug Interactions (7)]. Consider the potential for drug interactions prior to and during TECHNIVIE therapy; review concomitant medications during TECHNIVIE therapy; and monitor for the adverse reactions associated with the concomitant drugs [see Contraindications (4) and Drug Interactions (7)].
5.6 Risk of HIV-1 Protease Inhibitor Drug Resistance in HCV/HIV-1 Co-infected Patients
The ritonavir component of TECHNIVIE is also an HIV-1 protease inhibitor and can select for HIV-1 protease inhibitor resistance-associated substitutions. Any HCV/HIV-1 co-infected patients treated with TECHNIVIE should also be on a suppressive antiretroviral drug regimen to reduce the risk of HIV-1 protease inhibitor drug resistance.
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS
TECHNIVIE should be administered with ribavirin (RBV). Refer to the prescribing information for ribavirin for a list of ribavirin-associated adverse reactions.
The following adverse reaction is described below and elsewhere in the labeling:
Risk of Hepatic Decompensation and Hepatic Failure in Patients with Cirrhosis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
Increased Risk of ALT Elevations [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]
6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in clinical trials of ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The safety assessment of TECHNIVIE is based on data from a clinical study that included 135 HCV genotype 4-infected subjects without cirrhosis, 91 who received ombitasvir 25 mg, paritaprevir 150 mg and ritonavir 100 mg (administered as one ombitasvir 25 mg tablet, three paritaprevir 50 mg tablets and one ritonavir 100 mg capsule) once daily with ribavirin for 12 weeks and 44 subjects without cirrhosis who received ombitasvir 25 mg, paritaprevir 150 mg, and ritonavir 100 mg (administered as one ombitasvir 25 mg tablet, three paritaprevir 50 mg tablets and one ritonavir 100 mg capsule) once daily without ribavirin for 12 weeks (PEARL-I).
Adverse reactions that occurred in subjects treated with ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir with or without ribavirin for 12 weeks are listed in Table 3. The majority of adverse reactions in PEARL-I were mild in severity. None of the subjects who received ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir with ribavirin experienced a serious adverse reaction. None of the subjects receiving ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir with or without ribavirin discontinued treatment due to an adverse reaction.

Laboratory Abnormalities
Serum ALT Elevations
None of the 135 HCV GT4 infected subjects treated with TECHNIVIE experienced post-baseline serum ALT levels greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) after starting treatment [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
Serum Bilirubin Elevations
Post-baseline elevations in bilirubin at least 2 times ULN were observed in 5% (7/134) of subjects receiving TECHNIVIE; all of whom were also receiving RBV. These bilirubin increases were predominately indirect and related to the inhibition of the bilirubin transporters OATP1B1/1B3 by paritaprevir and possibly ribavirin-induced hemolysis. Bilirubin elevations occurred early after initiation of treatment, peaked by study Week 1, and generally resolved with ongoing therapy. Bilirubin elevations were generally not associated with serum ALT elevations.
Anemia/Decreased Hemoglobin
The mean change from baseline in hemoglobin levels in subjects treated with TECHNIVIE in combination with ribavirin was -2.1 g/dL and the mean change in subjects treated with TECHNIVIE alone was -0.4 g/dL. Decreases in hemoglobin levels occurred early in treatment (Week 1-2) with further reductions through Week 3. Hemoglobin values remained low during the remainder of treatment and returned towards baseline levels by post-treatment Week 4. One subject treated with TECHNIVIE with ribavirin had a single hemoglobin level decrease to less than 8 g/dL during treatment. Four percent (4/91) of subjects treated with TECHNIVIE with ribavirin underwent ribavirin dose reductions to manage anemia/decreased hemoglobin levels; none received a blood transfusion or erythropoietin. No subjects treated with TECHNIVIE alone had a hemoglobin level less than 8 g/dL.
6.2 Post-Marketing Experience
The following adverse reactions have been identified during post approval use of TECHNIVIE. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Immune System Disorders: Hypersensitivity reactions (including angioedema).
Hepatobiliary Disorders: Hepatic decompensation, hepatic failure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS
7.1 Potential for TECHNIVIE to Affect Other Drugs
Paritaprevir is an inhibitor of OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 and paritaprevir and ritonavir are inhibitors of BCRP and P-gp. Ritonavir is an inhibitor of CYP3A4. Co-administration of TECHNIVIE with drugs that are substrates of CYP3A, P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1 or OATP1B3 may result in increased plasma concentrations of such drugs [see also Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.5), and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
7.2 Potential for Other Drugs to Affect One or More Components of TECHNIVIE
Paritaprevir and ritonavir are primarily metabolized by CYP3A enzymes. Co-administration of TECHNIVIE with strong inhibitors of CYP3A may increase paritaprevir and ritonavir concentrations. Ombitasvir is primarily metabolized via amide hydrolysis while CYP enzymes play a minor role in its metabolism. Ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir are substrates of P-gp. Paritaprevir is a substrate of BCRP, OATP1B1 and OATP1B3. Inhibition of P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1 or OATP1B3 may increase the plasma concentrations of the various components of TECHNIVIE.
7.3 Established and Other Potential Drug Interactions
If dosage adjustments of concomitant medications are made due to treatment with TECHNIVIE, dosages should be re-adjusted after administration of TECHNIVIE is completed. Dosage adjustment is not required for TECHNIVIE.
Table 4 provides the effect of co-administration of TECHNIVIE on concentrations of concomitant drugs and the effect of concomitant drugs on the various components of TECHNIVIE. See Contraindications (4) for drugs that are contraindicated with TECHNIVIE. Refer to the ritonavir prescribing information for other potentially significant drug interactions with ritonavir.

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
8.1 Pregnancy
Pregnancy Category B
Risk Summary
Adequate and well controlled studies with TECHNIVIE have not been conducted in pregnant women. In animal reproduction studies, no evidence of teratogenicity was observed with the administration of ombitasvir (mice and rabbits), paritaprevir or ritonavir (mice and rats) at exposures higher than the recommended clinical dose [see Data]. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, TECHNIVIE should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
When TECHNIVIE is administered with ribavirin, the combination regimen is contraindicated in pregnant women and in men whose female partners are pregnant. Refer to the ribavirin prescribing information for more information on use of ribavirin in males and females of child-bearing potential.
Data
Animal data
In animal reproduction studies, there was no evidence of teratogenicity in offspring born to animals treated throughout pregnancy with ombitasvir and its major inactive human metabolites (M29, M36), paritaprevir or ritonavir. For ombitasvir, the highest dose tested produced exposures approximately 29-fold (mouse) or 4-fold (rabbit) the exposures in humans at the recommended clinical dose. The highest doses of the major, inactive human metabolites similarly tested produced exposures approximately 26-fold the exposures in humans at the recommended clinical dose. For paritaprevir, ritonavir, the highest doses tested produced exposures approximately 143-fold (mouse) or 12-fold (rat) the exposures of paritaprevir in humans at the recommended clinical dose.
8.3 Nursing Mothers
It is not known whether any of the components of TECHNIVIE or their metabolites are present in human milk. Unchanged ombitasvir, paritaprevir and its hydrolysis product M13 were the predominant components observed in the milk of lactating rats, without effect on nursing pups.
The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for TECHNIVIE and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from TECHNIVIE or from the underlying maternal condition.
When TECHNIVIE is administered with ribavirin, the nursing mother’s information for ribavirin also applies to this combination regimen (see prescribing information for ribavirin).
8.4 Pediatric Use
Safety and effectiveness of TECHNIVIE in pediatric patients less than 18 years of age have not been established.
8.5 Geriatric Use
No dosage adjustment of TECHNIVIE is warranted in geriatric patients. Clinical study PEARL-I did not include sufficient numbers of patients older than 65 years of age to assess safety or efficacy, or to determine if they responded differently than younger patients.
8.6 Hepatic Impairment
No dosage adjustment of TECHNIVIE is required in patients with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh A). TECHNIVIE is contraindicated in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B and C) [see Dosage and Administration (2.3), Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.2) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
8.7 Renal Impairment
No dosage adjustment of TECHNIVIE is required in patients with mild, moderate or severe renal impairment. TECHNIVIE has not been studied in patients on dialysis. For patients that require ribavirin, refer to the ribavirin prescribing information for information regarding use in patients with renal impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
10 OVERDOSAGE
In case of overdose, it is recommended that the patient be monitored for any signs or symptoms of adverse reactions and appropriate symptomatic treatment be instituted immediately.
11 DESCRIPTION

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1 Mechanism of Action
TECHNIVIE combines two direct-acting hepatitis C virus antiviral agents with distinct mechanisms of action [see Microbiology (12.4)].
Ritonavir is not active against HCV. Ritonavir is a potent CYP3A inhibitor that increases peak and trough plasma drug concentrations of paritaprevir and overall drug exposure (i.e., area under the curve).
12.2 Pharmacodynamics
Cardiac Electrophysiology
The effect of a combination of ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir plus dasabuvir on QTc interval was evaluated in a randomized, double blind, placebo and active-controlled (moxifloxacin 400 mg) 4-way crossover thorough QT study in 60 healthy subjects. At concentrations approximately 6 and 1.8 times the therapeutic concentrations of paritaprevir and ombitasvir, the combination did not prolong QTc to any clinically relevant extent.
12.3 Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of the components of TECHNIVIE are provided in Table 5. Based on the population pharmacokinetic analysis, the median steady-state pharmacokinetic parameters of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, and ritonavir in HCV‑infected subjects are provided in Table 6.

Specific Populations
Hepatic Impairment
The single dose pharmacokinetics of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir and another antiviral drug were evaluated in non-HCV infected subjects with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh A; score of 5-6), moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B, score of 7-9) and severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C, score of 10-15).
Relative to subjects with normal hepatic function, ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir mean AUC values decreased by 8%, 29% and 34%, respectively, in subjects with mild hepatic impairment.
Relative to subjects with normal hepatic function, ombitasvir and ritonavir mean AUC values decreased by 30% and 30%, respectively and paritaprevir mean AUC values increased by 62% in subjects with moderate hepatic impairment.
Relative to subjects with normal hepatic function, paritaprevir and ritonavir mean AUC values increased by 945% and 13% respectively and ombitasvir mean AUC values decreased by 54% in subjects with severe hepatic impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.3), Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.2) and Use in Specific Populations (8.6)].
Renal Impairment
The single dose pharmacokinetics of ombitasvir, paritaprevir and ritonavir were evaluated in non-HCV infected subjects with mild (CLcr: 60 to 89 mL/min), moderate (CLcr: 30 to 59 mL/min), and severe (CLcr: 15 to 29 mL/min) renal impairment.
Overall, changes in exposure of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, and ritonavir in non-HCV infected subjects with mild-, moderate- and severe renal impairment are not expected to be clinically relevant. Pharmacokinetic data are not available on the use of TECHNIVIE in non-HCV infected subjects with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).

12.4 Microbiology
Mechanism of Action
TECHNIVIE combines two direct-acting antiviral agents with distinct mechanisms of action and non-overlapping resistance profiles to target HCV at multiple steps in the viral lifecycle.
Ombitasvir
Ombitasvir is an inhibitor of HCV NS5A, which is essential for viral RNA replication and virion assembly. The mechanism of action of ombitasvir has been characterized based on cell culture antiviral activity and drug resistance mapping studies.
Paritaprevir
Paritaprevir is an inhibitor of HCV NS3/4A protease which is necessary for the proteolytic cleavage of the HCV encoded polyprotein (into mature forms of the NS3, NS4A, NS4B, NS5A, and NS5B proteins) and is essential for viral replication. In a biochemical assay, paritaprevir inhibited the proteolytic activity of a recombinant HCV genotype 4a NS3/4A protease enzyme with an IC50 value of 0.16 nM.
Antiviral Activity
Ombitasvir
The EC50 values of ombitasvir against HCV replicons containing NS5A from a single isolate each of genotype 4a and genotype 4d were 1.7 pM and 0.38 pM, respectively. Ombitasvir had a median EC50 value of 0.21 pM (range 0.10 pM to 0.36 pM; n=9) against transient HCV replicons containing NS5A genes from a panel of genotype 4a isolates from treatment-naïve subjects.
Paritaprevir
The EC50 values of paritaprevir against HCV replicons containing NS3 from a single isolate each of genotype 4a and genotype 4d were 0.09 nM and 0.015 nM, respectively.
Ritonavir
In HCV replicon cell culture assays, ritonavir did not exhibit a direct antiviral effect and the presence of ritonavir did not affect the antiviral activity of paritaprevir.
Resistance
In Cell Culture
Exposure of HCV genotype 4a replicons to ombitasvir or paritaprevir resulted in the emergence of drug resistant replicons carrying amino acid substitutions in NS5A or NS3, respectively. Amino acid substitutions in NS5A or NS3 selected in cell culture or identified in clinical study PEARL-I were phenotypically characterized in genotype 4 replicons.
For ombitasvir, in an HCV genotype 4a replicon, NS5A substitution L28V reduced ombitasvir antiviral activity by 21-fold. In an HCV genotype 4d replicon, substitutions L28V alone and L28V in combination with T58S reduced ombitasvir antiviral activity by 310- and 760-fold, respectively. Ombitasvir activity against an HCV genotype 4d replicon was not reduced by a T58P polymorphism, which represents the consensus sequence observed at this position for HCV genotype 4a and 4d subjects in PEARL-I.
For paritaprevir, in an HCV genotype 4a replicon, NS3 substitutions R155C, A156T/V, and D168H/V reduced paritaprevir antiviral activity by 40- to 323-fold. In an HCV genotype 4d replicon, NS3 substitutions Y56H and D168V reduced paritaprevir antiviral activity by 8- and 313-fold, respectively, while a combination of Y56H and D168V reduced the activity of paritaprevir by 12,533-fold.
In Clinical Studies
In the clinical study PEARL-I, three subjects with HCV genotype 4 infection experienced virologic failure (2 post-treatment relapse, 1 on-treatment failure). All 3 virologic failures were observed in a regimen containing paritaprevir/ritonavir and ombitasvir without ribavirin. Treatment-emergent, resistance-associated substitutions were detected at the time of failure in all 3 subjects and included D168V (with or without Y56H) in NS3, and L28S and L28V (with or without M31I or T58S) in NS5A.
Persistence of Resistance-Associated Substitutions
The persistence of ombitasvir or paritaprevir resistance-associated amino acid substitutions in NS5A or NS3, respectively, in HCV genotype 4 has not been studied. In HCV genotype 1, persistence of ombitasvir and paritaprevir resistance-associated substitutions through 24 or 48 weeks post-treatment has been observed in subjects who experienced virologic failure with ombitasvir- and paritaprevir-containing regimens. The long-term clinical impact of the emergence or persistence of virus containing ombitasvir or paritaprevir resistance-associated substitutions is unknown.
Effect of Baseline HCV Polymorphisms on Treatment Response
Phylogenetic analysis of HCV sequences from genotype 4-infected subjects in the clinical study PEARL-I, identified 7 HCV genotype 4 subtypes (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4f, 4g/4k, 4o). Most subjects were infected with either subtype 4a (38%) or 4d (52%); 1 to 7 subjects were infected with each of the other genotype 4 subtypes. Among subjects enrolled at U.S. study sites, 16/18 (89%) were infected with HCV subtype 4a; one subject each was infected with subtype 4c or 4d. Three subjects who experienced virologic failure with the regimen containing paritaprevir/ritonavir and ombitasvir without ribavirin were infected with HCV subtype 4d.
Baseline HCV polymorphisms are not expected to impact the likelihood of achieving SVR when TECHNIVIE is used as recommended to treat HCV genotype 4 infected patients, based on the low virologic failure rate observed in PEARL-I.
Cross-resistance
Cross-resistance may occur among NS5A inhibitors and among NS3/4A protease inhibitors within each individual class. The impact of prior ombitasvir or paritaprevir treatment experience on the efficacy of other NS5A inhibitors or NS3/4A protease inhibitors has not been studied. Similarly, the efficacy of TECHNIVIE has not been studied in subjects who have failed prior treatment with another NS5A inhibitor, NS3/4A protease inhibitor, or NS5B inhibitor.
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY
13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Carcinogenesis and Mutagenesis
Ombitasvir
Ombitasvir was not carcinogenic in a 6-month transgenic mouse study up to the highest dose tested (150 mg per kg per day). Similarly, ombitasvir was not carcinogenic in a 2-year rat study up to the highest dose tested (30 mg per kg per day), resulting in ombitasvir exposures approximately 16-fold higher than those in humans at 25 mg.
Ombitasvir and its major inactive human metabolites (M29, M36) were not genotoxic in a battery of in vitro or in vivo assays, including bacterial mutagenicity, chromosome aberration using human peripheral blood lymphocytes and in vivo mouse micronucleus assays.
Paritaprevir, ritonavir
Paritaprevir, ritonavir was not carcinogenic in a 6-month transgenic mouse study up to the highest dose tested (300/30 mg per kg per day). Similarly, paritaprevir, ritonavir was not carcinogenic in a 2-year rat study up to the highest dose tested (300/30 mg per kg per day), resulting in paritaprevir exposures approximately 11-fold higher than those in humans at 150 mg.
Paritaprevir was positive in an in vitro chromosome aberration test using human lymphocytes. Paritaprevir was negative in a bacterial mutation assay, and in two in vivo genetic toxicology assays (rat bone marrow micronucleus and rat liver Comet tests).
TECHNIVIE is administered with ribavirin. Refer to the prescribing information for ribavirin for information on carcinogenesis and mutagenesis.
Impairment of Fertility
Ombitasvir
Ombitasvir had no effects on embryo-fetal viability or on fertility when evaluated in mice up to the highest dose of 200 mg per kg per day. Ombitasvir exposures at this dose were approximately 26-fold the exposure in humans at the recommended clinical dose.
Paritaprevir, ritonavir
Paritaprevir, ritonavir had no effects on embryo-fetal viability or on fertility when evaluated in rats up to the highest dose of 300/30 mg per kg per day. Paritaprevir exposures at this dose were approximately 3- to 8-fold the exposure in humans at the recommended clinical dose.
TECHNIVIE is administered with ribavirin. Refer to the prescribing information for ribavirin for information on Impairment of Fertility.
14 CLINICAL STUDIES
14.1 Clinical Trial Results in Adults with Chronic GT4 HCV Infection without Cirrhosis
The efficacy and safety of TECHNIVIE was evaluated in a single clinical trial in subjects with genotype 4 (GT4) chronic hepatitis virus (HCV) infection. PEARL-I was a randomized, global, multicenter, open-label trial that enrolled 135 adults with HCV GT4 infection without cirrhosis who were either treatment-naïve or did not achieve a virologic response with prior treatment with pegylated interferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV). Previous exposure to HCV direct-acting antivirals was prohibited. Treatment-naïve subjects were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive one ombitasvir 25 mg tablet, three paritaprevir 50 mg tablets and one ritonavir 100 mg capsule once-daily with food with or without ribavirin for 12 weeks. PegIFN/RBV treatment-experienced subjects received one ombitasvir 25 mg tablet, three paritaprevir 50 mg tablets and one ritonavir 100 mg capsule once-daily with food in combination with ribavirin for 12 weeks. The ribavirin dosage was 1000 mg per day for subjects weighing less than 75 kg or 1200 mg per day for subjects weighing greater than or equal to 75 kg. The primary endpoint was sustained virologic response defined as HCV RNA below the lower limit of quantification (<LLOQ) 12 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR12) using the COBAS TaqMan HCV test (version 2.0), for use with the High Pure System, which has an LLOQ of 25 IU per mL.
HCV GT4-infected subjects had a median age of 51 years (range: 19 to 70); 64% were treatment-naïve, 17% were prior pegIFN/RBV null responders; 7% were prior pegIFN/RBV partial responders, 13% were prior pegIFN/RBV relapsers; 65% were male; 9% were Black; 14% had a body mass index at least 30 kg/m2; 70% had baseline HCV RNA levels at least 800,000 IU/mL; 79% had IL28B (rs12979860) non-CC genotype; 7% had bridging fibrosis (F3).

a. On-treatment VF was defined as confirmed HCV ≥25 IU/mL after HCV RNA < 25 IU/mL during treatment, confirmed increase from nadir in HCV RNA > 1 log10 IU/mL during treatment, or HCV RNA≥ 25 IU/mL persistently during treatment with at least 6 weeks of treatment.
b. Relapse was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥25 IU/mL post-treatment before or during SVR12 window among subjects with HCV RNA less than 25 IU/mL at last observation during at least 11 weeks of treatment.
c. Other includes subjects not achieving SVR12 but not experiencing on-treatment VF or relapse (e.g. lost to follow-up).
Among 131 HCV GT4 infected subjects in PEARL-I who achieved SVR12, virologic response data at post-treatment week 24 were available from 129 subjects, and 129/129 (100%) subjects maintained their response through 24 weeks post-treatment (SVR24).
