Summary

The majority of Human immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) co-infected patients are non responders after 48 weeks of the current standard-of-care with Peg-Interferon/Ribavirin. The results of re-treatment are disappointing. The addition of Boceprevir to the current standard-of-care has been shown to increase the efficacy of therapy in HCV mono-infected patients previously treated with a bi-therapy. Knowing that HIV/HCV co-infected patients are subject to more rapid hepatic fibrosis as well as to increased risks of cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma, it is important to improve the response rate of the re-treatment of hepatitis C in these patients.

The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Boceprevir in combination with Peg-Interferon alfa 2b plus ribavirin, in patients co-infected with HIV and chronic genotype 1 HCV, and previously treated with Peg-Interferon/Ribavirin. 80 subjects will be enrolled. The primary endpoint will be the Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) defined as undetectable HCV-RNA at Week 24 after the end of therapy.

Conditions

  • HCV Coinfection
  • HIV-1 Infection

Interventions

DRUG

Boceprevir, Peg-interferon alfa 2b and Ribavirin

* Screen period from Week-8 * Standard treatment from day 0 to week 4 (W4) * Three-drug-regimen (Boceprevir introduction) from W4 to W8 * HCV RNA determination at W8 determines treatment group and participation duration: * If undetectable HCV RNA at W8, it is a complete virological response: 3 drug-regimen is continued until W48, then there is a follow-up period up to W72 and SVR analysis, * If HCV RNA ≤ 1000IU/mL at W8, it is an incomplete virological response. The 3-drug-regimen is continued until W72, when another analysis is done.
