Brief Summary
This is a three-year (except for participants with chronic kidney disease \[CKD\] or cirrhosis) multicenter study to follow participants who received at least one dose of grazoprevir (MK-5172) in a previous study to determine whether they remain hepatitis C virus (HCV)-Ribonucleic acid (RNA) negative over time, and to determine if they have developed antiviral resistance. The study will also evaluate long-term adverse events in this population. Participants from MK-5172-052 (NCT02092350) with CKD or cirrhosis will be followed for five years.
Brief Title
Durability of Virologic Response and/or Viral Resistance Patterns in Participants With Chronic Hepatitis C Who Have Been Previously Treated With Grazoprevir (MK-5172) (MK-5172-017)
Detailed Description
As of Amendment 03, the study design is revised such that continued enrollment will only be for participants who failed prior therapy with a grazoprevir regimen. Participants with CKD enrolled from MK-5172-052 (NCT02092350) will continue enrollment regardless of prior treatment-response and remain in this study for five years, while participants enrolled from all other studies with HCV RNA less than the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) will be discontinued and end their participation after the next scheduled visit. In addition, participants who receive other HCV treatments concurrent with this follow-up study or received other HCV treatments prior to this study will be discontinued and their data excluded from analysis.
As of Amendment 04, the protocol has been updated to include enrollment of pediatric participants from protocol MK-5172-079 (NCT03379506). Enrollment is limited to participants who experienced virologic failure associated with 1 or more treatment-emergent resistant associated substitutions (RASs) present at 12 weeks after receiving grazoprevir treatment in prior treatment study MK-5172-079 (NCT03379506).

Official Title
A Long-Term Follow-Up Study to Evaluate the Durability of Virologic Response and/or Viral Resistance Patterns of Subjects With Chronic Hepatitis C Who Have Been Previously Treated With MK-5172 in a Prior Clinical Trial
Primary Outcomes
Outcome Description
Viral relapse is defined as any participant who has confirmed HCV Ribonucleic acid (RNA) ≥ Lower limit of quantification (LLoQ) of 15 IU/mL and had achieved sustained virologic response (SVR) in the follow up in the prior treatment study. Time to relapse is defined as the time from last dose of study therapy taken in the prior treatment study until the date where HCV RNA is ≥LLoQ.
Outcome Measure
Time to Viral Relapse
Outcome Time Frame
Up to ~60 months after enrollment in this study
Outcome Description
In adult participants with HCV RNA ≥1000 IU/mL at entry or during the study period, HCV sequence analysis was performed to evaluate the presence of RASs and the persistence of RASs over time.
Outcome Measure
Persistence of Treatment-Emergent Nonstructural Protein (NS)3 and NS5A Resistance-associated Substitutions (RASs) in Participants With HCV Genotype (GT) 1a Infections
Outcome Time Frame
Up to ~60 months after enrollment in this study
Outcome Description
In adult participants with HCV RNA ≥1000 IU/mL at entry or during the study period, HCV sequence analysis was performed to evaluate the presence of RASs and the persistence of RASs over time.
Outcome Measure

Outcome Time Frame
Up to ~60 months after enrollment in this study
Outcome Description

Outcome Description
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. The study investigator determined whether the adverse event was drug-related.
Outcome Measure
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Drug-Related Adverse Event (AE) During the Long-Term Follow-Up
Outcome Time Frame
Up to ~ 60 months after enrollment in this study
Outcome Description
A serious adverse event (SAE) is any adverse experience occurring at any dose that either results in death, is life threatening, results in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, results in or prolongs an existing inpatient hospitalization, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, is a cancer, is an overdose (whether accidental or intentional), or other important medical events that may not result in death, not be life threatening, or not require hospitalization may be considered a serious adverse experience when, based upon appropriate medical judgment, the event may jeopardize the participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed previously. The study investigator determined whether the adverse event was drug-related.
Outcome Measure
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Drug-Related Serious Adverse Event (SAE) During the Long-Term Follow-Up
