Gilead Rollover Study

OC
Here is my history:
I was a Null Responder to Standard of Care back in 2002.

I was in this Clinical Trial (NCT01435226) and was considered a relapser, finished 10-17-12. I didn’t clear the virus at 2 weeks (baseline 11,100,000 to 65), so I went on the Rescue Study with 2 DAA’s, Ribavirin, & SOC. I cleared the virus at week 16, but went back and forth between undetected and <25 for most of the time. I was undetected at 48, but after 1 month the virus was back.

Here is a link to the thread that I posted, http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Hepatitis-C/Gilead-study-GS-US-248-0131---phase-2-all-oral/show/1610899?personal_page_id=2264261

I just got a call from the study coordinator saying that Gilead has a rollover study, that consists of GS-7977, Peg, Riba for 12 weeks that I can participate in.

I think I'm going to go for it, it’s my understanding that Gilead will only use the 7977 with Peg/Riba for Genotype 1’s.

What do you think?

peace

Music to the ears. Congratulations. A long time in coming. Hoping the same for me. I too go back at the end of January for the six month if next week is undetected. I can only imagine the joy you must have felt when getting the news

Will keep thoughts and prayers for an undetected 12 week post.  I went for my annual registry labs today and the nurse at the trial site said that they are getting good results with this trial.  It sounds like if they get good results then it may become the next treatment for folks like me.

Best,
