LO8: A PHASE 2 STUDY OF PEGINTERFERON LAMBDA, LONAFARNIB, AND RITONAVIR FOR 24 WEEKS: END-OF-STUDY RESULTS FROM THE LIFT HDV STUDY.Dr. Christopher Koh, MD, MHSc FAASLD1, Dr. Julian Hercun2, Farial Rahman3, Amy Huang4, Dr. Ben Da5, Ms. Pallavi Surana6, Dr. Devika Kapuria7, Dr. Yaron Rotman8, Dr. Anusha Vittal2, Dr. Christy Ann L Gilman2, Gil Ben-Yakov9, Dr. Chunwei Walter Lai4, Prof. Harel Dahari10, Dr. Jeffrey Glenn11and Dr. Theo Heller12, (1)Liver Disease Branch, National Institute of Diabetes Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, DHHS, (2)Liver Diseases Branch, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, (3)Niddk-Nih, (4)Liver Diseases Branch, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, (5)Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, (6)Liver Disease Branch, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, (7)Liver Disease Branch, National Institutes of Health, (8)Liver and Energy Metabolism Section, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, (9)Liver Disease Branch, Niddk, (10)Loyola University Chicago, (11)Div of Gastroenterologyand Hepatology, Stanford University Medical Center, (12)Liver Diseases Branch, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, DHHSBackground: Hepatitis Delta Virus (HDV) infection, the most aggressive form of human chronic viral hepatitis, is still without an approved FDA therapy. Separate clinical trials evaluating the prenylation inhibitor lonafarnib (LNF) boosted with ritonavir (RTV) and peginterferon lambda-1a (LMD) monotherapy have demonstrated anti-HDV activity. In a first-in-humans clinical trial, the Lambda InterFeron combination Therapy (LIFT) study evaluated the safety and antiviral effects of combination therapy with LMD/LNF/RTV in chronic HDV infected patients.Methods: In this phase 2 open-label study, 26 adult patients with chronic HDV and quantifiable HDV RNA in serum (lower limit of quantitation <40 IU/mL) were treated with subcutaneous LMD 180 mcg weekly and oral LNF 50 mg and RTV 100 mg twice daily for 24 weeks followed by 24 weeks of post-therapy follow-up. The primary therapeutic endpoint was a decrease of HDV RNA by >2 log from baseline at 24 weeks of therapy. Tenofovir or Entecavir was started prior to therapy. Serial assessments of safety parameters, liver tests, pharmacokinetics, histology, and virologic (HDV RNA, HBV DNA, and HBsAg) markers were obtained.Results: In this completed study, patients were 65% male, median age of 40 years and included Asian (54%), White (31%) and African (15%) subjects. Median baseline evaluations included: ALT (64 IU/mL), AST (47 IU/mL), Ishak Fibrosis (3), modified HAI inflammation (9), HBV DNA (<21 IU/mL) and log HDV RNA (4.7 IU/mL). During the study, 24 patients (92%) achieved a >2 log decline and 20 patients (77%) achieved either undetectable HDV RNA levels or below the lower limit of quantification (BLOQ). By intention-to-treat analysis, at 24-weeks of therapy, the median HDV RNA decline from baseline was 3.23 log IU/mL (IQR:2.94-4.49, p<0.0001) with 9 patients (35%) achieving undetectable HDV RNA and 3 patients (11.5%) with HDV RNA BLOQ. Adverse events were mostly mild to moderate and included GI related side effects, weight loss, hyperbilirubinemia, and anemia. Therapy was dose reduced in3 patients and discontinued in 4 patients. After 24-weeks of follow-up, 3 patients (11.5%) maintained a durable response with undetectable HDV RNA and normal liver enzymes.Conclusion: Combination therapy with LMD/LNF/RTV was safe and tolerable for up to 6 months in most patients. Along with significant anti-HDV activity, this was the first demonstration of sustained anti-HDV response with this therapeutic regimen. Preliminary analysis supports continued exploration of this regimen and that increased duration of therapy may lead to increased response rates. |
