4.1 Therapeutic indications 
 
Maviret is indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in adults and in 
adolescents aged 12 to <18 years (see sections 4.2, 4.4. and 5.1).  
 
4.2 Posology and method of administration 
 
Maviret treatment should be initiated and monitored by a physician experienced in the management of 
patients with HCV infection. 
 
Posology 
 
Adults and adolescents aged 12 to <18 years 
The recommended dose of Maviret is 300 mg/120 mg (three 100 mg/40 mg tablets), taken orally, once 
daily at the same time with food (see section 5.2). 
 
The recommended Maviret treatment durations for HCV genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 infected patients 
with compensated liver disease (with or without cirrhosis) are provided in Table 1 and Table 2.

GT 3 16 weeks 16 weeks 
 
For patients who failed prior therapy with an NS3/4A- and/or an NS5A-inhibitor, see section 4.4. 
 
Missed dose 
In case a dose of Maviret is missed, the prescribed dose can be taken within 18 hours after the time it 
was supposed to be taken. If more than 18 hours have passed since Maviret is usually taken, the 
missed dose should not be taken and the patient should take the next dose per the usual dosing 
schedule. Patients should be instructed not to take a double dose.  
 
If vomiting occurs within 3 hours of dosing, an additional dose of Maviret should be taken. If 
vomiting occurs more than 3 hours after dosing, an additional dose of Maviret is not needed. 
 
Elderly 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required in elderly patients (see sections 5.1 and 5.2). 
 
Renal impairment 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required in patients with any degree of renal impairment including 
patients on dialysis (see sections 5.1 and 5.2).  
 
Hepatic impairment 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required in patients with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh A). 
Maviret is not recommended in patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child Pugh-B) and is 
contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C) (see sections 4.3, 4.4, and 
5.2). 
 
Liver or kidney transplant patients  
A 12-week treatment duration has been evaluated and is recommended in liver or kidney transplant 
recipients with or without cirrhosis (see section 5.1). A 16-week treatment duration should be 
considered in genotype 3-infected patients who are treatment experienced with peg-IFN + ribavirin +/- 
sofosbuvir, or sofosbuvir + ribavirin.  
 
Patients with HIV-1 Co-infection 
Follow the dosing recommendations in Tables 1 and 2. For dosing recommendations with HIV 
antiviral agents, refer to section 4.5.  
 
Paediatric population 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required in adolescents aged 12 to <18 years (see sections 5.1 and 
5.2). The safety and efficacy of Maviret in children aged less than 12 years have not yet been 
established. No data are available. 
 
Method of administration 
 
For oral use. 
 
Patients should be instructed to swallow tablets whole with food and not to chew, crush or break the 
tablets as it may alter the bioavailability of the agents (see section 5.2).

4.3 Contraindications 
 
Hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1.  
 
Patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C) (see sections 4.2, 4.4, and 5.2). 
 
Concomitant use with atazanavir containing products, atorvastatin, simvastatin, dabigatran etexilate, 
ethinyl oestradiol-containing products, strong P-gp and CYP3A inducers (e.g., rifampicin, 
carbamazepine, St. John’s wort (Hypericum perforatum), phenobarbital, phenytoin, and primidone) 
(see section 4.5).  
 
4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use 
 
Hepatitis B Virus reactivation  
 
Cases of hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation, some of them fatal, have been reported during or after 
treatment with direct-acting antiviral agents. HBV screening should be performed in all patients before 
initiation of treatment. HBV/HCV co-infected patients are at risk of HBV reactivation, and should, 
therefore, be monitored and managed according to current clinical guidelines. 
 
Hepatic impairment 
 
Maviret is not recommended in patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B) and is 
contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C) (see sections 4.2, 4.3, and 
5.2).  
 
Patients who failed a prior regimen containing an NS5A- and/or an NS3/4A-inhibitor 
 
Genotype 1-infected (and a very limited number of genotype 4-infected) patients with prior failure on 
regimens that may confer resistance to glecaprevir/pibrentasvir were studied in the MAGELLAN-1 
study (section 5.1). The risk of failure was, as expected, highest for those exposed to both classes. A 
resistance algorithm predictive of the risk for failure by baseline resistance has not been established. 
Accumulating double class resistance was a general finding for patients who failed re-treatment with 
glecaprevir/pibrentasvir in MAGELLAN-1. No re-treatment data is available for patients infected with 
genotypes 2, 3, 5 or 6. Maviret is not recommended for the re-treatment of patients with prior exposure 
to NS3/4A- and/or NS5A-inhibitors.  
 
Drug-drug interactions 
 
Co-administration is not recommended with several medicinal products as detailed in section 4.5. 
 
Use in diabetic patients  
 
Diabetics may experience improved glucose control, potentially resulting in symptomatic 
hypoglycaemia, after initiating HCV direct acting antiviral treatment. Glucose levels of diabetic 
patients initiating direct acting antiviral therapy should be closely monitored, particularly within the 
first 3 months, and their diabetic medication modified when necessary. The physician in charge of the 
diabetic care of the patient should be informed when direct acting antiviral therapy is initiated.  
 
Lactose 
 
Maviret contains lactose. Patients with rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp 
lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not take this medicinal product.

4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction 
 
Potential for Maviret to affect other medicinal products  
 
Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir are inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), breast cancer resistance protein 
(BCRP), and organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1/3. Co-administration with Maviret 
may increase plasma concentrations of medicinal products that are substrates of P-gp (e.g. dabigatran 
etexilate, digoxin), BCRP (e.g. rosuvastatin), or OATP1B1/3 (e.g. atorvastatin, lovastatin, pravastatin, 
rosuvastatin, simvastatin). See Table 3 for specific recommendations on interactions with sensitive 
substrates of P-gp, BCRP, and OATP1B1/3. For other P-gp, BCRP, or OATP1B1/3 substrates, dose 
adjustment may be needed. 
 
Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir are weak inhibitors of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A and uridine 
glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 in vivo. Clinically significant increases in exposure were not 
observed for sensitive substrates of CYP3A (midazolam, felodipine) or UGT1A1 (raltegravir) when 
administered with Maviret. 
 
Both glecaprevir and pibrentasvir inhibit the bile salt export pump (BSEP) in vitro. 
 
Significant inhibition of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, UGT1A6, UGT1A9, UGT1A4, 
UGT2B7, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, MATE1 or MATE2K are not expected. 
 
Patients treated with vitamin K antagonists 
 
As liver function may change during treatment with Maviret, a close monitoring of International 
Normalised Ratio (INR) values is recommended. 
 
Potential for other medicinal products to affect Maviret 
 
Use with strong P-gp/CYP3A inducers  
Medicinal products that are strong P-gp and CYP3A inducers (e.g., rifampicin, carbamazepine, St. 
John’s wort (Hypericum perforatum), phenobarbital, phenytoin, and primidone) could significantly 
decrease glecaprevir or pibrentasvir plasma concentrations and may lead to reduced therapeutic effect 
of Maviret or loss of virologic response. Co-administration of such medicinal products with Maviret is 
contraindicated (see section 4.3). 
 
Co-administration of Maviret with medicinal products that are moderate inducers P-gp/CYP3A may 
decrease glecaprevir and pibrentasvir plasma concentrations (e.g. oxcarbazepine, eslicarbazepine, 
lumacaftor, crizotinib). Co-administration of moderate inducers is not recommended (see section 4.4). 
 
Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir are substrates of the efflux transporters P-gp and/or BCRP. Glecaprevir is 
also a substrate of the hepatic uptake transporters OATP1B1/3. Co-administration of Maviret with 
medicinal products that inhibit P-gp and BCRP (e.g. ciclosporin, cobicistat, dronedarone, itraconazole, 
ketoconazole, ritonavir) may slow elimination of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir and thereby increase 
plasma exposure of the antivirals. Medicinal products that inhibit OATP1B1/3 (e.g. elvitegravir, 
ciclosporin, darunavir, lopinavir) increase systemic concentrations of glecaprevir. 
 
Established and other potential medicinal product interactions  
 
Table 3 provides the least-squares mean Ratio (90% Confidence Interval) effect on concentration of 
Maviret and some common concomitant medicinal products. The direction of the arrow indicates the 
direction of the change in exposures (Cmax, AUC, and Cmin) in glecaprevir, pibrentasvir, and the co-
administered medicinal product (↑ = increase (more than 25%), ↓ = decrease (more than 20%), ↔ = 
no change (equal to or less than 20% decrease or 25% increase)). This is not an exclusive list.

Additional drug-drug interaction studies were performed with the following medical products and 
showed no clinically significant interactions with Maviret: abacavir, amlodipine, buprenorphine, 
caffeine, dextromethorphan, dolutegravir, emtricitabine, felodipine, lamivudine, lamotrigine, 
methadone, midazolam, naloxone, norethindrone or other progestin-only contraceptives, rilpivirine, 
tenofovir alafenamide and tolbutamide. 
 
4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation 
 
Pregnancy 
 
There are no or limited amount of data (less than 300 pregnancy outcomes) from the use of glecaprevir 
or pibrentasvir in pregnant women. 
 
Studies in rats/mice with glecaprevir or pibrentasvir do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects 
with respect to reproductive toxicity. Maternal toxicity associated with embryo-foetal loss has been 
observed in the rabbit with glecaprevir which precluded evaluation of glecaprevir at clinical exposures 
in this species (see section 5.3). As a precautionary measure, Maviret use is not recommended in 
pregnancy. 
 



10 

Breast-feeding 
 
It is unknown whether glecaprevir or pibrentasvir are excreted in human milk. Available 
pharmacokinetic data in animals have shown excretion of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir in milk (for 
details see section 5.3). A risk to the suckling child cannot be excluded. A decision must be made 
whether to discontinue breast-feeding or to discontinue/abstain from Maviret therapy taking into 
account the benefit of breast-feeding for the child and the benefit of therapy for the woman. 
 
Fertility 
 
No human data on the effect of glecaprevir and/or pibrentasvir on fertility are available. Animal 
studies do not indicate harmful effects of glecaprevir or pibrentasvir on fertility at exposures higher 
than the exposures in humans at the recommended dose (see Section 5.3).  
 
4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines 
 
Maviret has no or negligible influence on the ability to drive and use machines.  
 
4.8 Undesirable effects 
 
Summary of the safety profile 
 
The safety assessment of Maviret in subjects treated for 8, 12 or 16 weeks with compensated liver 
disease (with or without cirrhosis) was based on registrational Phase 2 and 3 studies which evaluated 
approximately 2,300 subjects. The most commonly reported adverse reactions (incidence ≥ 10%) were 
headache and fatigue. Less than 0.1% of subjects treated with Maviret had serious adverse reactions 
(transient ischaemic attack). The proportion of subjects treated with Maviret who permanently 
discontinued treatment due to adverse reactions was 0.1%. The type and severity of adverse reactions 
in subjects with cirrhosis were overall comparable to those seen in subjects without cirrhosis. 
 
Tabulated summary of adverse reactions 
 
The following adverse reactions were identified in patients treated with Maviret. The adverse reactions 
are listed below by body system organ class and frequency. Frequencies are defined as follows: very 
common (≥ 1/10), common (≥ 1/100 to < 1/10), uncommon (≥ 1/1,000 to < 1/100), rare 
(≥ 1/10,000 to < 1/1,000), very rare (< 1/10,000) or not known (cannot be estimated from the available 
data).

Adverse reactions in subjects with severe renal impairment including subjects on dialysis 



11 

The safety of Maviret in subjects with chronic kidney disease (including subjects on dialysis) and 
genotypes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 chronic HCV infection with compensated liver disease (with or without 
cirrhosis) was assessed in EXPEDITION-4 (n=104) and EXPEDITION-5 (n=101).  The most common 
adverse reactions in subjects with severe renal impairment were pruritus (17%) and fatigue (12%) in 
EXPEDITION-4 and pruritus (14.9%) in EXPEDITION-5. 
 
Adverse Reactions in Subjects with Liver or Kidney Transplant 
The safety of Maviret was assessed in 100 post-liver or -kidney transplant recipients with genotypes 1, 
2, 3, 4, or 6 chronic HCV infection without cirrhosis (MAGELLAN-2). The overall safety profile in 
transplant recipients was comparable to that observed in subjects in the Phase 2 and 3 studies. Adverse 
reactions observed in greater than or equal to 5% of subjects receiving Maviret for 12 weeks were 
headache (17%), fatigue (16%), nausea (8%) and pruritus (7%). 
 
Safety in HCV/HIV-1 Co-infected Subjects  
The overall safety profile in HCV/HIV-1 co-infected subjects (ENDURANCE-1 and EXPEDITION-
2) was comparable to that observed in HCV mono-infected subjects.  
 
Paediatric population 
The safety of Maviret in HCV GT1-6 infected adolescents is based on data from a Phase 2/3 open-
label study in 47 subjects aged 12 years to <18 years treated with Maviret for 8 to 16 weeks (DORA-
Part 1). The adverse reactions observed were comparable with those observed in clinical studies of 
Maviret in adults. 
 
Serum bilirubin elevations 
Elevations in total bilirubin of at least 2x upper limit normal (ULN) were observed in 1.3% of subjects 
related to glecaprevir-mediated inhibition of bilirubin transporters and metabolism. Bilirubin 
elevations were asymptomatic, transient, and typically occurred early during treatment. Bilirubin 
elevations were predominantly indirect and not associated with ALT elevations. Direct 
hyperbilirubinemia was reported in 0.3% of subjects.  
 
Reporting of suspected adverse reactions 
 
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It 
allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare 
professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the national reporting system 
listed in Appendix V. 
 
4.9 Overdose 
 
The highest documented doses administered to healthy volunteers is 1,200 mg once daily for 7 days 
for glecaprevir and 600 mg once daily for 10 days for pibrentasvir. Asymptomatic serum ALT 
elevations (>5x ULN) were observed in 1 out of 70 healthy subjects following multiple doses of 
glecaprevir (700 mg or 800 mg) once daily for ≥ 7 days. In case of overdose, the patient should be 
monitored for any signs and symptoms of toxicities (see section 4.8). Appropriate symptomatic 
treatment should be instituted immediately. Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir are not significantly removed 
by haemodialysis.

12 

Maviret is a fixed-dose combination of two pan-genotypic, direct-acting antiviral agents, glecaprevir 
(NS3/4A protease inhibitor) and pibrentasvir (NS5A inhibitor), targeting multiple steps in the HCV 
viral lifecycle. 
  
Glecaprevir 
Glecaprevir is a pan-genotypic inhibitor of the HCV NS3/4A protease, which is necessary for the 
proteolytic cleavage of the HCV encoded polyprotein (into mature forms of the NS3, NS4A, NS4B, 
NS5A, and NS5B proteins) and is essential for viral replication.  
 
Pibrentasvir 
Pibrentasvir is a pan-genotypic inhibitor of HCV NS5A, which is essential for viral RNA replication 
and virion assembly. The mechanism of action of pibrentasvir has been characterized based on cell 
culture antiviral activity and drug resistance mapping studies. 
 
Antiviral activity 
 
The EC50 values of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir against full-length or chimeric replicons encoding 
NS3 or NS5A from laboratory strains are presented in Table 5.

The in vitro activity of glecaprevir was also studied in a biochemical assay, with similarly low IC50 
values across genotypes.

Resistance  
 
In cell culture 
Amino acid substitutions in NS3 or NS5A selected in cell culture or important for the inhibitor class 
were phenotypically characterized in replicons.  
 
Substitutions important for the HCV protease inhibitor class at positions 36, 43, 54, 55, 56, 155, 166, 
or 170 in NS3 had no impact on glecaprevir activity. Substitutions at amino acid position 168 in NS3 
had no impact in genotype 2, while some substitutions at position 168 reduced glecaprevir 
susceptibility by up to 55-fold (genotypes 1, 3, 4), or reduced susceptibility by > 100-fold (genotype 
6). Some substitutions at position 156 reduced susceptibility to glecaprevir (genotypes 1 to 4) by 
> 100-fold.  Substitutions at amino acid position 80 did not reduce susceptibility to glecaprevir except 
for Q80R in genotype 3a, which reduced susceptibility to glecaprevir by 21-fold.   
 
Single substitutions important for the NS5A inhibitor class at positions 24, 28, 30, 31, 58, 92, or 93 in 
NS5A in genotypes 1 to 6 had no impact on the activity of pibrentasvir. Specifically in genotype 3a, 
A30K or Y93H had no impact on pibrentasvir activity. Some combinations of substitutions in 
genotypes 1a and 3a (including A30K+Y93H in genotype 3a) showed reductions in susceptibility to 
pibrentasvir. In genotype 3b replicon, the presence of naturally occurring polymorphisms K30 and 
M31 in NS5A reduced susceptibility to pibrentasvir by 24-fold relative to the activity of pibrentasvir 
in genotype 3a replicon. 
 
In clinical studies 
 
Studies in treatment-naïve and peginterferon (pegIFN), ribavirin (RBV) and/or sofosbuvir treatment-
experienced subjects with or without cirrhosis 
Twenty two of the approximately 2,300 subjects treated with Maviret for 8, 12, or 16 weeks in 
registrational Phase 2 and 3 clinical studies experienced virologic failure (2 with genotype 1, 2 with 
genotype 2, 18 with genotype 3 infection).  
 



14 

Among the 2 genotype 1-infected subjects who experienced virologic failure, one had treatment-
emergent substitutions A156V in NS3 and Q30R/L31M/H58D in NS5A, and one had Q30R/H58D 
(while Y93N was present at baseline and post-treatment) in NS5A.  
 
Among the 2 genotype 2-infected subjects, no treatment-emergent substitutions were observed in NS3 
or NS5A (the M31 polymorphism in NS5A was present at baseline and post-treatment in both 
subjects). 
 
Among the 18 genotype 3-infected subjects treated with Maviret for 8, 12, or 16 weeks who 
experienced virologic failure, treatment-emergent NS3 substitutions Y56H/N, Q80K/R, A156G, or 
Q168L/R were observed in 11 subjects. A166S or Q168R were present at baseline and post-treatment 
in 5 subjects. Treatment-emergent NS5A substitutions M28G, A30G/K, L31F, P58T, or Y93H were 
observed in 16 subjects, and 13 subjects had A30K (n=9) or Y93H (n=5) at baseline and post-
treatment. 
 
Studies in subjects with or without compensated cirrhosis who were treatment-experienced to NS3/4A 
protease and/or NS5A inhibitors  
Ten of 113 subjects treated with Maviret in the MAGELLAN-1 study for 12 or 16 weeks experienced 
virologic failure.  
 
Among the 10 genotype 1-infected subjects with virologic failure, treatment-emergent NS3 
substitutions V36A/M, R155K/T, A156G/T/V, or D168A/T were observed in 7 subjects. Five of the 
10 had combinations of V36M, Y56H, R155K/T, or D168A/E in NS3 at baseline and post-treatment. 
All of the genotype 1-infected virologic failure subjects had one or more NS5A substitutions 
L/M28M/T/V, Q30E/G/H/K/L/R, L31M, P32 deletion, H58C/D, or Y93H at baseline, with additional 
treatment-emergent NS5A substitutions M28A/G, P29Q/R, Q30K, H58D, or Y93H observed in 7 of 
the subjects at the time of failure.   
 
Effect of baseline HCV amino acid polymorphisms on treatment response 
A pooled analysis of treatment-naïve and pegylated interferon, ribavirin and/or sofosbuvir treatment-
experienced subjects receiving Maviret in the Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical studies was conducted to 
explore the association between baseline polymorphisms and treatment outcome and to describe 
substitutions seen upon virologic failure. Baseline polymorphisms relative to a subtype-specific 
reference sequence at amino acid positions 155, 156, and 168 in NS3, and 24, 28, 30, 31, 58, 92, and 
93 in NS5A were evaluated at a 15% detection threshold by next-generation sequencing. Baseline 
polymorphisms in NS3 were detected in 1.1% (9/845), 0.8% (3/398), 1.6% (10/613), 1.2% (2/164), 
41.9% (13/31), and 2.9% (1/34) of subjects with HCV genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 infection, 
respectively. Baseline polymorphisms in NS5A were detected in 26.8% (225/841), 79.8% (331/415), 
22.1% (136/615), 49.7% (80/161), 12.9% (4/31), and 54.1% (20/37) of subjects with HCV genotype 1, 
2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 infection, respectively. 
 
Genotype 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6: Baseline polymorphisms in genotypes 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 had no impact on 
treatment outcome.   
 
Genotype 3: For subjects who received the recommended regimen (n=313), baseline polymorphisms 
in NS5A (Y93H included) or NS3 did not have a relevant impact on treatment outcomes. All subjects 
(15/15) with Y93H and 77% (17/22) with A30K in NS5A at baseline achieved SVR12. The overall 
prevalence of A30K and Y93H at baseline was 7.0% and 4.8%, respectively. The ability to assess the 
impact of baseline polymorphisms in NS5A was limited among treatment-naïve subjects with cirrhosis 
and treatment-experienced subjects due to low prevalence of A30K (3.0%, 4/132) or Y93H (3.8%, 
5/132).  
 
Cross-resistance 
 
In vitro data indicate that the majority of the resistance-associated substitutions in NS5A at amino acid 
positions 24, 28, 30, 31, 58, 92, or 93 that confer resistance to ombitasvir, daclatasvir, ledipasvir, 
elbasvir, or velpatasvir remained susceptible to pibrentasvir. Some combinations of NS5A 



15 

substitutions at these positions showed reductions in susceptibility to pibrentasvir. Glecaprevir was 
fully active against resistance-associated substitutions in NS5A, while pibrentasvir was fully active 
against resistance-associated substitutions in NS3. Both glecaprevir and pibrentasvir were fully active 
against substitutions associated with resistance to NS5B nucleotide and non-nucleotide inhibitors.

f. VOYAGE-1 and VOYAGE-2 were Asian regional studies. 
 
Serum HCV RNA values were measured during the clinical studies using the Roche COBAS 
AmpliPrep/COBAS Taqman HCV test (version 2.0) with a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 
15 IU/mL (except for SURVEYOR-1 and SURVEYOR-2 which used the Roche COBAS TaqMan 
real-time reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR) assay v. 2.0 with an LLOQ of 25 IU/mL). Sustained 
virologic response (SVR12), defined as HCV RNA less than LLOQ at 12 weeks after the cessation of 
treatment, was the primary endpoint in all the studies to determine the HCV cure rate. 
 
Clinical studies in treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced subjects with or without cirrhosis 
Of the 2,409 subjects with compensated liver disease (with or without cirrhosis) treated who were 
treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced to combinations of peginterferon, ribavirin and/or 
sofosbuvir, the median age was 53 years (range: 19 to 88); 73.3% were treatment-naïve, 26.7% were 
treatment-experienced to a combination containing either sofosbuvir, ribavirin and/or peginterferon; 
40.3% were HCV genotype 1; 19.8% were HCV genotype 2; 27.8% were HCV genotype 3; 8.1% 
were HCV genotype 4; 3.4% were HCV genotype 5-6; 13.1% were ≥65 years; 56.6% were male; 6.2% 
were Black; 12.3% had cirrhosis; 4.3% had severe renal impairment or end stage renal disease; 20.0% 
had a body mass index of at least 30 kg per m2; 7.7% had HIV-1 coinfection and the median baseline 
HCV RNA level was 6.2 log10 IU/mL

Clinical Study in Subjects with Genotype 5 or 6 Infection 
ENDURANCE-5,6 was an open-label study in 84 HCV GT5 (N=23) or 6-infected (N=61) TN or TE-
PRS subjects.  Subjects without cirrhosis received Maviret for 8 weeks, and subjects with 
compensated cirrhosis received Maviret for 12 weeks. Of the 84 subjects treated, the median age was 
59 years (range 24-79); 27% had HCV genotype 5, 73% had HCV genotype 6; 54% were female, 30% 
were White, 68% were Asian; 90% were HCV TN; 11% had compensated cirrhosis.  
 
The overall SVR12 rate was 97.6% (82/84).  The SVR12 rate was 95.7% (22/23) for GT5-infected 
subjects and 98.4% (60/61) for GT6-infected subjects.  One TN GT5-infected subject without cirrhosis 
experienced relapse, and one TN GT6-infected subject with compensated cirrhosis experienced on-
treatment virologic failure. 
 
Subjects with Genotype 1, 2, 4, 5, or 6 Infection with Cirrhosis who received 8 weeks of Maviret 
The safety and efficacy of Maviret given for 8 weeks in GT 1, 2, 4, 5 or 6 treatment naïve subjects 
with compensated cirrhosis was evaluated in a single-arm, open-label study (EXPEDITION-8).  
Of the 280 subjects treated, the median age was 60 years (range: 34 to 88); 81.8% had HCV genotype 
1, 10% had HCV genotype 2, 4.6% had HCV genotype 4, 0.4% had HCV genotype 5; 3.2% had HCV 
genotype 6; 60% were male; 9.6% were Black. 
 
The overall SVR12 rate was 98.2% (275/280). There were no virologic failures. 
 
Subjects with genotype 3 infection  
The efficacy of Maviret in subjects who were treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced to 
combinations of peginterferon, ribavirin and/or sofosbuvir with genotype 3 chronic hepatitis C 
infection was demonstrated in the ENDURANCE-3 (treatment-naïve without cirrhosis), 
EXPEDITION-8 (treatment-naïve with cirrhosis), and SURVEYOR-2 Part 3 (subjects with and 
without cirrhosis and/or treatment-experienced) clinical studies. 
 
ENDURANCE-3 was a partially-randomized, open-label, active-controlled study in treatment-naïve 
genotype 3-infected subjects. Subjects were randomized (2:1) to either Maviret for 12 weeks or the 
combination of sofosbuvir and daclatasvir for 12 weeks; subsequently the study included a third arm 
(which was non-randomized) with Maviret for 8 weeks. EXPEDITION-8 was a single-arm, open-label 
study in treatment-naïve subjects with compensated cirrhosis and genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 infection 
who received Maviret for 8 weeks.  SURVEYOR-2 Part 3 was an open-label study that evaluated the 
efficacy of Maviret in treatment-experienced genotype 3-infected subjects without cirrhosis and with 
compensated cirrhosis for 16-weeks. Among treatment-experienced subjects, 46% (42/91) failed a 
previous regimen containing sofosbuvir.

Of the genotype 3-infected subjects with end stage renal disease enrolled in EXPEDITION-4, 100% 
(11/11) achieved SVR12. 
 
Subjects with genotype 3b infection  
GT3b is a subtype reported in a relatively small number of HCV infected patients in China and a few 
countries in South and Southeast Asia, but rarely outside of this region. Studies VOYAGE-1 and 
VOYAGE-2 were conducted in China, Singapore, and South Korea in HCV genotype 1-6 subjects 
without cirrhosis (VOYAGE-1) or with compensated cirrhosis (VOYAGE-2) that were treatment-
naïve (TN) or treatment-experienced to combinations of interferon, peg-interferon, ribavirin and/or 
sofosbuvir (TE-PRS). All subjects without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis received 8 or 12 
weeks of Maviret, respectively, except GT3 TE-PRS subjects who received 16 weeks of Maviret. The 
overall SVR12 rates were 97.2% (352/362) and 99.4% (159/160) in VOYAGE-1 and VOYAGE-2, 
respectively. 
 
Among GT3b subjects without cirrhosis, a numerically lower SVR12 rate of 58.3% (7/12) [62.5% 
(5/8) for TN subjects and 50% (2/4) for TE-PRS subjects] was observed compared to GT3a subjects 
without cirrhosis (92.9% (13/14)). Three GT3b TN subjects experienced relapse and two GT3b TE-
PRS subjects experienced on-treatment virologic failure. Among subjects with compensated cirrhosis, 
the overall SVR12 rate for GT3b infected subjects was 87.5% (7/8) [85.7% (6/7) for TN subjects and 
100% (1/1) for TE-PRS subjects] and 100% (6/6) for GT3a infected subjects. One GT3b TN subject 
experienced relapse. 
 
Overall SVR12 Rate from the Clinical Studies in Treatment-Naïve or Treatment-Experienced Subjects 
with or without Cirrhosis 
In subjects who are treatment-naïve (TN) or treatment-experienced to combinations of interferon, 
peginterferon, ribavirin and/or sofosbuvir (TE-PRS) who received the recommended duration, 97.5% 
(1,395/1,431) achieved SVR12 overall, while  0.2% (3/1,431) experienced on-treatment virologic 
failure and 0.9% (12/1,407) experienced post-treatment relapse. 
 
In TN or TE-PRS subjects with compensated cirrhosis who received the recommended duration, 
97.1%  (431/444) achieved SVR12 (among which 97.7% [335/343] of TN subjects achieved SVR12), 
while 0.2% (1/444) experienced on-treatment virologic failure and 0.9% (4/434) experienced post-
treatment relapse. 
 



19 

In TN subjects without cirrhosis who received the recommended duration of 8 weeks, 97.5% 
(749/768) achieved SVR12, while 0.1% (1/768) experienced on-treatment virologic failure and 0.7% 
(5/755) experienced post-treatment relapse. 
 
In TE-PRS subjects without cirrhosis who received the recommended duration, 98.2% (215/219) 
achieved SVR12, while 0.5% (1/219) experienced on-treatment virologic failure and 1.4% (3/218) 
experienced post-treatment relapse. 
 
The presence of HIV-1 coinfection did not impact efficacy. The SVR12 rate in TN or TE-PRS 
HCV/HIV-1 co-infected subjects treated for 8 or 12 weeks (without cirrhosis and with compensated 
cirrhosis, respectively) was 98.2% (165/168) from ENDURANCE-1 and EXPEDITION-2. One 
subject experienced on-treatment virologic failure (0.6%, 1/168) and no subjects relapsed (0%, 0/166).  
 
Clinical Study in Liver or Kidney Transplant Recipients  
MAGELLAN-2 was a single-arm, open-label study in 100 post-liver or -kidney transplant HCV 
GT1-6 infected subjects without cirrhosis who received Maviret for 12 weeks. The study included 
subjects who were HCV treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced to combinations of (peg) interferon, 
ribavirin, and/or sofosbuvir, with the exception of GT3-infected subjects who were all treatment-
naïve.   
 
Of the 100 subjects treated, the median age was 60 years (range: 39 to 78); 57% had HCV genotype 1, 
13% had HCV genotype 2, 24% had HCV genotype 3, 4% had HCV genotype 4, 2% had HCV 
genotype 6; 75% were male; 8% were Black; 66% were HCV treatment-naïve; none had cirrhosis and 
80% had a baseline fibrosis state of F0 or F1; 80% of subjects were post-liver transplant and 20% were 
post-kidney transplant. Immunosuppressants allowed for co-administration were ciclosporin 
≤100 mg/day, tacrolimus, sirolimus, everolimus, azathioprine, mycophenolic acid, prednisone, and 
prednisolone.  
 
The overall SVR12 rate in post-transplant subjects was 98.0% (98/100). There was one relapse and no 
on-treatment virologic failure. 
 
Clinical Study in Renally Impaired Subjects 
EXPEDITION-5 was an open-label study in 101 HCV GT1-6 infected subjects without cirrhosis or 
with compensated cirrhosis and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3b, 4, or 5. Subjects were either 
treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced to combinations of (peg) interferon, ribavirin, and/or 
sofosbuvir and received Maviret for 8, 12, or 16 weeks per approved treatment durations. 
 
Of the 101 subjects treated, the median age was 58 years (range 32-87); 53% had HCV genotype 1; 
27% had HCV genotype 2; 15% had HCV genotype 3; 4% had HCV genotype 4; 59% were male; 
73% were White; 80% were HCV treatment-naïve; 13% had cirrhosis and 65% had a baseline fibrosis 
state of F0 or F1; 7% were CKD stage 3b; 17% were CKD Stage 4, and 76% were CKD Stage 5 (all 
receiving dialysis); 84 subjects received 8 weeks of treatment, 13 subjects received 12 weeks of 
treatment, and 4 subjects received 16 weeks of treatment. 
 
The overall SVR12 rate was 97% (98/101).  There were no virologic failures. 
 
Elderly  
Clinical studies of Maviret included 328 patients aged 65 and over (13.8% of the total number of 
subjects). The response rates observed for patients ≥ 65 years of age were similar to that of patients 
< 65 years of age, across treatment groups. 
 
Paediatric population 
DORA (Part 1) was an open-label study to evaluate safety and efficacy in adolescents aged 12 years to 
less than 18 years who received Maviret 300 mg/120 mg (three 100 mg/40 mg film-coated tablets), for 
8, or 16 weeks. 47 subjects were enrolled in DORA (Part 1). The median age was 14 years (range: 12 
to 17); 79% had HCV genotype 1, 6% had HCV genotype 2, 9% had HCV genotype 3, 6% had HCV 
genotype 4; 55% were female; 11% were Black; 77% were HCV treatment-naïve; 23% were 



20 

treatment-experienced to interferon; 4% had HIV-coinfection; none had cirrhosis; the mean weight 
was 59 kg (range: 32 to 109 kg). 
 
The overall SVR12 rate was 100% (47/47). No subject experienced virologic failure. 
 
The European Medicines Agency has deferred the obligation to submit the results of studies with 
glecaprevir/pibrentasvir in one or more subsets of the paediatric population from 3 years to less than 
12 years in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (see section 4.2 for information on paediatric use).

a. Median Tmax following single doses of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir in healthy subjects. 
b. Mean systemic exposure with moderate to high fat meals.  
c. Single dose administration of [14C]glecaprevir or [14C]pibrentasvir in mass balance studies.  
d. Oxidative metabolites or their byproducts accounted for 26% of radioactive dose. No glecaprevir metabolites 

were observed in plasma. 
 
In patients with chronic hepatitis C infection without cirrhosis, following 3 days of monotherapy with 
either glecaprevir 300 mg per day (N=6) or pibrentasvir 120 mg per day (N=8) alone, geometric mean 
AUC24 values were 13600 ng∙h/mL for glecaprevir and 459 ng∙h/mL for pibrentasvir. Estimation of 
the pharmacokinetic parameters using population pharmacokinetic models has inherent uncertainty 
due to dose non-linearity and cross interaction between glecaprevir and pibrentasvir. Based on 
population pharmacokinetic models for Maviret in chronic hepatitis C patients, steady-state AUC24 
values for glecaprevir and pibrentasvir were 4800 and 1430 ng∙h/mL in subjects without cirrhosis 
(N=1804), and 10500 and 1530 ng∙h/mL in subjects with cirrhosis (N=280), respectively. Relative to 
healthy subjects (N=230), population estimates of AUC24, ss were similar (10% difference) for 
glecaprevir and 34% lower for pibrentasvir in HCV-infected patients without cirrhosis.  
 
Linearity/non-linearity 
 
Glecaprevir AUC increased in a greater than dose-proportional manner (1200 mg QD had 516-fold 
higher exposure than 200 mg QD) which may be related to saturation of uptake and efflux 
transporters. 
 
Pibrentasvir AUC increased in a greater than dose-proportional manner at doses up to 120 mg, (over 
10-fold exposure increase at 120 mg QD compared to 30 mg QD), but exhibited linear 



21 

pharmacokinetics at doses ≥ 120 mg. The non-linear exposure increase <120 mg may be related to 
saturation of efflux transporters. 
 
Pibrentasvir bioavailability when coadministered with glecaprevir is 3-fold of pibrentasvir alone. 
Glecaprevir is affected to a lower extent by coadministration with pibrentasvir. 
 
Pharmacokinetics in special populations  
 
Race/ethnicity 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required based on race or ethnicity. 
 
Gender/weight 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required based on gender or body weight. 
 
Elderly 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required in elderly patients. Population pharmacokinetic analysis in 
HCV-infected subjects showed that within the age range (12 to 88 years) analysed, age did not have a 
clinically relevant effect on the exposure to glecaprevir or pibrentasvir. 
 
Paediatric Population 
No dose adjustment of Maviret is required in adolescents 12 years and older. Exposures of glecaprevir 
and pibrentasvir in adolescents aged 12 to <18 years were comparable to those in adults from Phase 
2/3 studies. The pharmacokinetics of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir have not been established in 
paediatric patients <12 years of age. 
 
Renal impairment 
Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir AUC were increased ≤ 56% in non-HCV infected subjects with mild, 
moderate, severe, or end-stage renal impairment not on dialysis compared to subjects with normal 
renal function. Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir AUC were similar with and without dialysis (≤ 18% 
difference) in dialysis-dependent non-HCV infected subjects. In population pharmacokinetic analysis 
of HCV-infected subjects, 86% higher glecaprevir and 54% higher pibrentasvir AUC were observed 
for subjects with end stage renal disease, with or without dialysis, compared to subjects with normal 
renal function.  Larger increases may be expected when unbound concentration is considered. 
 
Overall, the changes in exposures of Maviret in HCV-infected subjects with renal impairment with or 
without dialysis were not clinically significant. 
 
Hepatic impairment 
At the clinical dose, compared to non-HCV infected subjects with normal hepatic function, glecaprevir 
AUC was 33% higher in Child-Pugh A subjects, 100% higher in Child-Pugh B subjects, and increased 
to 11-fold in Child-Pugh C subjects. Pibrentasvir AUC was similar in Child-Pugh A subjects, 26% 
higher in Child-Pugh B subjects, and 114% higher in Child-Pugh C subjects. Larger increases may be 
expected when unbound concentration is considered.  
 
Population pharmacokinetic analysis demonstrated that following administration of Maviret in HCV-
infected subjects with compensated cirrhosis, exposure of glecaprevir was approximately 2-fold and 
pibrentasvir exposure was similar to non-cirrhotic HCV-infected subjects. The mechanism for the 
differences between glecaprevir exposure in chronic Hepatitis C patients with or without cirrhosis is 
unknown. 
 
5.3 Preclinical safety data 
 
Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir were not genotoxic in a battery of in vitro or in vivo assays, including 
bacterial mutagenicity, chromosome aberration using human peripheral blood lymphocytes and in vivo 
rodent micronucleus assays. Carcinogenicity studies with glecaprevir and pibrentasvir have not been 
conducted.  
 



22 

No effects on mating, female or male fertility, or early embryonic development were observed in 
rodents at up to the highest dose tested. Systemic exposures (AUC) to glecaprevir and pibrentasvir 
were approximately 63 and 102 times higher, respectively, than the exposure in humans at the 
recommended dose.  
 
In animal reproduction studies, no adverse developmental effects were observed when the components 
of Maviret were administered separately during organogenesis at exposures up to 53 times (rats; 
glecaprevir) or 51 and 1.5 times (mice and rabbits, respectively; pibrentasvir) the human exposures at 
the recommended dose of Maviret. Maternal toxicity (anorexia, lower body weight, and lower body 
weight gain) with some embryofoetal toxicity (increase in post-implantation loss and number of 
resorptions and a decrease in mean foetal body weight), precluded the ability to evaluate glecaprevir in 
the rabbit at clinical exposures.  There were no developmental effects with either compound in rodent 
peri/postnatal developmental studies in which maternal systemic exposures (AUC) to glecaprevir and 
pibrentasvir were approximately 47 and 74 times, respectively, the exposure in humans at the 
recommended dose. Unchanged glecaprevir was the main component observed in the milk of lactating 
rats without effect on nursing pups. Pibrentasvir was the only component observed in the milk of 
lactating rats without effect on nursing pups.

1. What Maviret is and what it is used for 
 
Maviret is an antiviral medicine used to treat adults and adolescents (12 to less than 18 years old) with 
long-term (‘chronic’) hepatitis C (an infectious disease that affects the liver, caused by the hepatitis C 
virus). It contains the active substances glecaprevir and pibrentasvir. 
 
Maviret works by stopping the hepatitis C virus from multiplying and infecting new cells. This allows 
the infection to be eliminated from the body.

Do not take Maviret if: 
• you are allergic to glecaprevir, pibrentasvir or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed 
in section 6 of this leaflet). 
• you have severe liver problems other than from hepatitis C. 
• you are taking the following medicines: 

• atazanavir (for HIV infection)  
• atorvastatin or simvastatin (to lower blood cholesterol)  
• carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone (normally used for epilepsy) 
• dabigatran etexilate (to prevent blood clots)  
• ethinyl oestradiol-containing medicines (such as contraception medicines, including 

vaginal rings and tablets) 
• rifampicin (for infections)  
• St. John’s wort (Hypericum perforatum), (herbal remedy used for mild depression). 

 
Do not take Maviret if any of the above apply to you. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or 
pharmacist before taking Maviret.
