About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety and feasibility of four weeks of sofosbuvir plus glecaprevir-pibrentasvir, followed by immediate retreatment of virological relapse with glecepravir-pibrentasvir for 12 weeks, in treatment-naïve participants with chronic HCV infection and early liver disease (F0-F2).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers

18 years of age or older.
Chronic HCV infection as defined by anti-HCV antibody or HCV RNA detection for greater than 6 months.
Quantifiable HCV RNA at screening.
Disqualifiers
Participants who meet any of the exclusion criteria are not to be enrolled in this study.
Clinically significant illness (other than HCV) or any other major medical disorder that may interfere with the participant treatment, assessment or compliance with the protocol; participants currently under evaluation for a potentially clinically significant illness (other than HCV) are also excluded.
Clinical hepatic decompensation (i.e. ascites, encephalopathy or variceal haemorrhage).
Solid organ transplant.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
SVR12
To evaluate the proportion achieving a sustained virological response at 12 weeks post treatment (SVR12) with sofosbuvir (400 mg) plus glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (300mg/120mg) for four weeks.
Secondary outcomes
Virological relapse
To evaluate virological relapse following 4 weeks sofosbuvir (400 mg) plus glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (300mg/120mg) in HCV treatment-naïve chronic HCV patients with early liver disease (F0-2).
Relapse characteristics
In patients with virological relapse, to evaluate the time course of relapse and emergence of treatment-associated resistance substitutions.
Re-treatment SVR
To evaluate SVR following re-treatment of virological relapse with 12 weeks glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (300mg/120mg).
Adherence
To evaluate the proportion adherent to treatment and study visits.
