Details and patient eligibility

About

Grazoprevir (MK-5172) and Elbasvir (MK-8742) were studied as the principal components of combination oral therapy for hepatitis C virus (HCV). The study examined the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of Grazoprevir and Elbasvir following 10 days of dosing in participants with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis (HD) or participants with severe renal impairment. Both groups were compared to healthy matched controls.

  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at screening is < 30 mL/min/1.73m^2 Healthy Controls
  • Participant is within ± 10 years of the mean age and within 10% of the mean body mass index of severe renal impairment participants
  • eGFR at screening is >=80 mL/min/1.73m^2
