The Efficacy and Safety of 12-week SOF/VEL Regimen Combined With Prophylactic Use of TAF for Treatment-naïve Genotype 1-6 HCV/HBV Co-infection Adult Patients With or Without Compensated Cirrhosis in China
China120 participantsStarted 2021-08
Plain-language summary
Subjects can be classified into two groups, Group 1 include non-cirrhotic patients, Group 2 include cirrhotic patients.
All the patients will be received prophylactically TAF for 4 weeks before using SOF/VEL once daily for 12 weeks. In total, Group 1 patients will be discontinued TAF once daily therapy at the end of week 28 if no HBV reactivation occurs during treatment , Group 2 patients will be received TAF once daily for 64 weeks. In this study, after week 64, Group 2 patients will continue NUC treatment but pay by themselves. For those who is GT3 cirrhosis patients, RBV added simultaneously with SOF/VEL for 12 weeks. For patients weighing \< 75 kg, the dose is 500 mg twice; for patients weighing ≥ 75 kg, the dose is 600 mg twice.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
To evaluate the efficacy of treatment with SOF/VEL for 12 weeks in subjects with GT1-6 HCV/HBV co-infection as measured by the proportion of subjects with SVR.
Timeframe: The first group of patients was evaluated from 16 weeks to 28 weeks（for 12 weeks）
2
To evaluate the efficacy of treatment with SOF/VEL for 12 weeks in subjects with GT1-6 HCV/HBV co-infection as measured by the proportion of subjects with SVR.
Timeframe: The second group of patients was evaluated from 16 weeks to 28 weeks（for 12 weeks）
. Individuals must not be taking or requiring treatment with HBV antiviral therapy at screening. For participants that are HBV treatment experienced, the most recent treatment must have been completed at least 6 months prior to Day 1.
Exclusion criteria
. Any direct antiviral drugs (DAAs) used before screening, including non-structural proteins NS3/4A inhibitor, NS5A inhibitor or NS5B polymerase inhibitor.
. Patients who received hepatitis B antiviral therapy within 6 months.
. Diagnosis of primary liver cancer or support for the following evidence: alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) \>100 ng/ml or cirrhosis imaging studies of the liver revealed suspicious nodules in the liver
. A history of malignant tumors within 5 years prior to screening, except for specific cancers that have been cured by surgical resection (eg.Basal cell skin cancer, etc.), or patients suspected of having malignant tumors
. Current or previous evidence of liver decompensation, including but not limited to: Child-Pugh score Grade B or C, ascites, or hepatic encephalopathy, variceal bleeding or diuretics for the treatment of ascites.
. A current or previous history of a major medical condition or any other major medical disorder that may interfere with the individual's treatment, assessment or compliance program.
. Clinically significant disease (except HBV, HCV) or any other major disease that may interfere with subject treatment, assessment, or protocol compliance; subjects that are currently undergoing assessment of a potentially clinically significant disease (except HBV，HCV) are also excluded.
. Gastrointestinal disease, or the condition after surgery may interfere with the absorption of the study drug.
