3 TELAPREVIR AND BOCEPREVIR CIRRHOSIS Cirrhosis Jacobson IM, et al. N Engl J Med 2011;364: Poordad F, et al. N Engl J Med 2011;364: FDA RECOMMENDED ALGORITHM TELAPREVIR Treatment naïve and Prior Relapse Measure HCV RNA TPV+PEGINF+RBV If ervr: PEGINF+RBV If NO ervr: PEGINF+RBV HCV RNA Hard Stop Rules <1000 <1000 UD 3

4 FDA RECOMMENDED ALGORITHM BOCEPREVIR Treatment Naïve PEGINF+RBV If ervr: BOC+PEGINF+RBV If NO ervr: BOC+PEGINF+RBV PEG + RBV Measure HCV RNA HCV RNA Hard Stop Rules <100 UD EXTENDED RVR RESPONSE GUIDED THERAPY Telaprevir Boceprevir Developed from observations made from peginterferon/ribavirin Applied to the triple therapy paradigms Patients who achieve RVR Treated for a shorter duration Achieve maximum SVR Patients with delayed virologic response Become HCV RNA negative after week 4 Require 48 weeks of treatment to reduce relapse Have lower SVR rates 4

6 MEASURING HCV RNA RVR AND STOP RULES Must use a PCR assay which can: Quantify the level of HCV RNA Differentiate UNQUANTIFIABLE from UNDETECTABLE An assay which reports that HCV RNA is UNQUANTIFIABLE without qualifying if HCV RNA is UNDETECTBALE is insufficient A value of <25 IU/ml detectable is NOT undetectable and not eligible for a shorter duration of treatment 1000 IU/ml -- STOP for -- Telaprevir 100 IU/ml -- STOP for -- Boceprevir Not Quantifiable Not Detectable MEASURING HCV RNA VR AND STOP RULES: BOCEPREVIR ALL MEET STOP RULES ALL MEET CRITERIA TO CONTINUE TREATMENT 6

7 MEASURING HCV RNA RVR AND STOP RULES: TELAPREVIR ALL MEET STOP RULES ALL MEET CRITERIA TO CONTINUE TREATMENT HEPATITIS C VIRUS THE POOL OF VIRUS Sensitive mutant Wild type Sensitive mutant Sensitive mutant Resistant mutants 7

8 CHRONIC HCV IMPACT OF VIRAL MUTATIONS Wild type viral protein Anti-viral agent enters the binding site Viral protein inhibited Sensitive mutant viral protein Anti-viral agent still able to enter binding site Viral protein inhibited Resistant mutant viral protein Anti-viral agent unable to enter binding site Viral protein not inhibited TREATMENT OF CHRONIC HCV EMERGENCE OF RESISTANCE The use of multiple agents acting at different sites Either a: A single DAA+PEGINF+ RBV in patients who are genetically sensitive to INF Multiple DAAs (2-3) with or without t RBV Will suppress the emergence of resistance and yield high rates of SVR 8

9 TREATMENT OF CHRONIC HCV MISTAKES WE MADE The majority of patients treated with boceprevir and telaprevir had: Cirrhosis Previously failed peginterferon and ribavirin Results were: Substantially less than observed in phase 3 clinical trials Adverse events were more frequent INTERFERON RESPONSIVENESS CIRRHOSIS INF Non-Responsive INF Responsive Bruno S, et al.
