CONCLUSIONS
- Oral doses of ACH-2928 up to 500 mg appear to be safe and well-tolerated in healthy volunteers
- Pharmacokinetic profiles support 10 mg and 60 mg dosing regimens in HCV infected patients
- The mean maximum HCV RNA viral load decline of 3.68 log10 observed in the ACH-2928 60 mg QD dose group shows a robust antiviral effect and no virologic breakthrough with monotherapy compared to the placebo arm decline of 0.54 log10
- These results supports continued investigation of ACH-2928 in both PegIFN/RBV and DAA combinations
