Background and Aims: The LOWR HDV-2 study explored multiple
combinations of LNF and RTV, with or without PEG-IFNα, for 12 to 48
weeks, in patients chronically infected with HDV. Antiviral responses
were observed in all treatment groups. Here we sought to analyze
response rates as a function of baseline viral loads (BVL) among
patients completing 24 weeks of the various LNF-based regimens.
Method: 33 patients completed 24weeks of the following LNF-based
regimens:
Group 1 (n = 14): LNF 50 mg BID + RTV 100 mg BID. This included 2
re-treatment patients, who had previously been treated with a short
oral course of LNF based therapy (LNF 200 mg BID or LNF 300 mg BID
for 12 weeks), and achieved HDV RNA negativity for 6 months,
followed by a return of HDV RNA to low BVL < 4 log; Group 2 (n = 6):
LNF 25 mg BID + RTV 100 mg BID; Group 3 (n = 4): LNF 50 mg BID +
RTV 100 mg BID + PEG-IFNα 180 micrograms QW; Group 4 (n = 5):
LNF 25 mg BID + RTV 100 mg BID + PEG-IFNα 180 micrograms QW;
Group 5 (n = 4): LNF 50 mg BID + RTV 100 mg BID + addition of PEGIFNα
180micrograms QW for weeks 12–24. 12 of 33 (36%) patients
had low BVL, defined as <4 logIU/ml and 21 of 33 (64%) patients had
BVL > 4 logIU/ml. HDV RNA was measured by validated RoboGene®
HDV RNA Quantification (LOQ: 14IU/ml; LOD 8IU/ml). Responders
were defined as patients achieving >2 log drop in HDV RNA (or BLOQ
for patients with BVL < 2 log) at the end of 24 weeks.
Results: 21 of 33 (64%) patients across all treatment groups were
responders at 24 weeks. For patients with BVL > 4 log, response rate
was 12 of 21 (57%). Response rate at 24 weeks for patients with low
BVL < 4 log was higher, 9 of 12 (75%), described below:
7 of 7 (100%) patients treated with all oral LNF 50 mg BID + RTV
100 mg BID (Group 1) were BLOQ (n = 2) or PCR-negative (n = 5) at 24
weeks, including the 2 re-treatment patients. 1 of 1 patients from
Group 4 and 1 of 1 patients from Group 5 became BLOQ at 24 weeks.
0 of 3 (0%) patients from Group 2were BLOQ at 24weeks. Group 3 had
no patients with low BVL
Conclusion: 6-month LNF-based regimens achieved virologic
responses in a majority of patients. All oral LNF 50 mg BID + RTV
100 mg BID appears to be particularly attractive for patients with low
BVL, as 100% of patients were responders. These results also suggest
that prolonged control of HDV may be achieved in appropriate
patients by 6-month pulse therapy with all oral LNF 50 mg BID + RTV
100 mg BID, in both LNF naïve and experienced patients.
