Anadys Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ:ANDS)
Anadys Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced that 72% of hepatitis C patients receiving ANA598 400 mg twice daily (bid) plus standard of care (SOC) achieved undetectable levels of virus at week eight in an ongoing Phase II study, compared to 38% of patients receiving placebo plus SOC. The preliminary analysis of results through eight weeks also showed that ANA598 400 mg bid plus SOC was well tolerated, with an adverse event profile comparable to SOC alone. As seen before at 200 mg bid, no patient experienced viral breakthrough on ANA598. In the ongoing Phase II study, a total of approximately 90 treatment-naive genotype 1 patients are to receive ANA598 or placebo in combination with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and Copegus (ribavirin, USP) for 12 weeks at dose levels of 200 mg bid or 400 mg bid, each with a loading dose of 800 mg bid on day one. After week 12, patients are to continue receiving SOC. Patients who achieve undetectable levels of virus at weeks 4 and 12 will be randomized to stop all treatment at week 24 or 48. The primary endpoint of the study is the proportion of patients who achieve undetectable levels of virus at week 12 (defined as complete Early Virological Response, or cEVR). Additional endpoints include safety and tolerability as well as the proportion of patients with undetectable levels of virus at week 4 (defined as Rapid Virological Response, or RVR).
