“…Triple combination therapy with lonafarnib 50 and ritonavir 100 mg twice daily plus peginterferon lambda-1a 180 μg weekly for 24 weeks demonstrated antiviral efficacy in patients with chronic HDV infection participating in a phase 2a, open-label, first-in-humans LIFT HDV study (NCT03600714; n = 26) [ 20 , 21 ]. Twenty-two of 26 patients completed 24 weeks of treatment [ 21 ].…”

“…A combination of IFN and these inhibitors is predicted to provide better antiviral activity by targeting both HDV-spreading pathways. This hypothesis is supported by recent clinical studies demonstrating strong synergistic antiviral effects with a combination of pegylated IFN-α and Hepcludex/Lonafarnib [ 158 , 159 , 160 , 161 ]. To verify the effect of this combination treatment in vitro, we recently generated a model supporting both spreading pathways using HuH7-NTCP cells stably expressing HBV envelope proteins.…”

“…The LOWR-HDV-4 [ 127 ] study is a dose-escalation study performed to investigate whether a rapid stepwise increase in the lonafarnib dosage from 50 mg to 100 mg BID (associated with ritonavir 100 mg BID fixed dosage and HBV nucleo(s)tide analogue) might increase the number of patients achieving higher lonafarnib doses [ 129 ]. If well tolerated, lonafarnib was increased to 75 mg BID after at least 4 weeks, and then to 100 mg BID after at least 2 weeks from the previous escalation [ 125 ].…”

“…An open-label Phase 2a study was performed to evaluate the safety and the antiviral effect of lonafarnib/RTV + peg-IFN lambda-1a given for 24 weeks to 26 HDV-CH patients [ 129 ]. At the end of treatment, the median HDV RNA decline from baseline was −3.4 log10 ( p < 0.0001), with 7 patients become HDV RNA negative and 3 with serum HDV RNA not quantifiable.…”
