AbbVie Demonstrates Leadership in HCV with New MAVYRET™ Data to be Presented at The Liver Meeting® 2017

AbbVie Demonstrates Leadership in HCV with New MAVYRET™ (glecaprevir/pibrentasvir) Data to be Presented at The Liver Meeting® 2017

16 HCV abstracts to be presented including 12 data presentations on the safety and efficacy of MAVYRET
- MAVYRET is recommended in new AASLD guidelines as a first line treatment option for 8 weeks in treatment-naïve non-cirrhotic HCV patients across all genotypes (GT1-6)

NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV), a global research and development based biopharmaceutical company, today announced that it will present new data evaluating MAVYRET™ (glecaprevir/pibrentasvir), its once-daily, ribavirin-free treatment for adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection across all major genotypes (GT1-6), at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD). Sixteen AbbVie scientific abstracts have been accepted, including two oral presentations studying the use of MAVYRET in patients across genotypes (GT1-6) with compensated cirrhosis and treatment-naïve patients with genotype 3 (GT3) HCV. These populations have historically had limited treatment options. A third oral presentation evaluates adherence to treatment with MAVYRET in the clinical development program. The Liver Meeting® 2017 will take place in Washington, D.C., from October 20 – 24, 2017.

"AbbVie's data presentations at this year's The Liver Meeting reinforce our commitment to people living with hepatitis C," said Janet Hammond, M.D., Ph.D., vice president, infectious diseases development, AbbVie. "These data add to a robust collection of clinical trial results to further enhance scientific knowledge of MAVYRET's safety and efficacy across a number of patient populations."

Researchers will also present data obtained from the MAVYRET clinical program evaluating patients with cardiovascular, metabolic and renal conditions as well as data on HCV patient preferences.

"On the heels of AASLD's newly released HCV treatment guidance, we are excited to see additional data on MAVYRET across a broad range of patients," said Fred Poordad, M.D., vice president, academic and clinical affairs, Texas Liver Institute and professor of medicine, University of Texas Health, San Antonio. "The updated recommendations on available treatments, including the use of MAVYRET in the majority of patients, serve as an additional source of information to help physicians make treatment decisions."

About MAVYRET™ (glecaprevir/pibrentasvir)
MAVYRET™ is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in adults across all major genotypes (GT1-6). MAVYRET is a pan-genotypic, once-daily, ribavirin-free treatment that combines glecaprevir (100mg), an NS3/4A protease inhibitor, and pibrentasvir (40mg), an NS5A inhibitor, dosed once-daily as three oral tablets, taken with food.

MAVYRET is an 8-week, pan-genotypic option for patients without cirrhosis and who are new to treatment, who comprise the majority of people living with HCV. MAVYRET is also approved as a treatment for patients with specific treatment challenges, including those (GT1) not cured by prior treatment experience to either a protease inhibitor or NS5A inhibitor (but not both), and in patients with limited treatment options, such as those with severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) or those with genotype 3 chronic HCV. MAVYRET is a pan-genotypic treatment approved for use in patients across all stages of CKD.

Glecaprevir (GLE) was discovered during the ongoing collaboration between AbbVie and Enanta Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ENTA) for HCV protease inhibitors and regimens that include protease inhibitors.
