⋅ Phase 2a randomized, open-label study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of the combination of AL-335, odalasvir (ACH-3102), and simeprevir in treatment-naïve subjects with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C

 
The Janssen sponsored phase 2a clinical trial evaluating all-oral regimens for durations of eight weeks and less remains ongoing. This trial is evaluating a triplet regimen, consisting of odalasvir, AL-335, and simeprevir, for durations of eight and six weeks, as well as a doublet regimen, consisting of odalasvir and AL-335, for eight weeks. Top line results from this study are expected to be released in the third quarter of the year.
