NCT ID: NCT03723824 Terminated - Chronic Hepatitis c Clinical Trials

Grazoprevir/Elbasvir for Genotype 1b Chronic Hepatitis C After Liver or Kidney Transplantation

Start date: February 14, 2019
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Grazoprevir/elbasvir combination therapy is highly effective in the treatment of genotype 1b chronic hepatitis C, and the drug-drug interaction with central immunosuppressant, such as tacrolimus, should be manageable. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and tolerability of grazoprevir/elbasvir combination therapy in treating genotype 1b chronic hepatitis C after liver or kidney transplantation.

NCT ID: NCT03483987 Terminated - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Re-treatment of HCV Following DAA Failure

Start date: February 10, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

HCV infection is treated with oral drugs, termed as 'direct-acting anti-viral agents' (DAAs). In India, four DAAs are available (sofosbuvir [SOF], daclatasvir [DCV], ledipasvir [LDV] and velpatasvir [VEL]). Globally, DAA based regimens have obtained excellent rates of cure. Cure of HCV infection is defined as undetectable HCV RNA 12 weeks after stopping drugs, also referred to as sustained virological response at week 12 (SVR12). Using these DAA based treatment regimens, a small number (up to 5%) of people fail to achieve SVR12 and HCV RNA reappear after a few weeks of stopping the drugs (virological relapse). Data on management of virological relapse are extremely limited, especially in genotype 3, and no guidelines exist regarding re-treatment options for such group. Hence, we plan to re-treat such people using what appear to be the best combination treatment in each situation and to review our experience over time. Participants with chronic HCV infection who relapsed following standard DAA-based treatment regimen will be invited to participate. We propose to re-treat them with the anti-HCV drug combination which appears to be the most suited to his/her clinical profile, based on the current empiric knowledge - the choice of drugs will be based on HCV genotype, the previous treatment regimen and the presence/absence of liver cirrhosis, etc. During anti-HCV treatment, participants will be given expected standard of care and HCV RNA will be tested at 4-week intervals starting from week 4 and till RNA becomes undetectable, and then at the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the treatment was stopped - as is the usual practice during such treatment. Relevant clinical, laboratory and treatment details will be recorded in a pre-defined data collection form. Treatment outcome will be categorized as success (SVR12), treatment failure (any detectable HCV RNA at the end of 24 weeks treatment duration) or relapse (HCV RNA negative at the end of treatment, but positive at 12 weeks after stopping treatment). If possible, a 5-ml blood specimen will be collected before starting re-treatment from all participants; in addition, another similar specimen will be collected following the treatment in those in whom the re-treatment is unsuccessful. These will be stored and may be used in future for virological studies to look for drug-resistance variations.

NCT ID: NCT02971033 Terminated - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Ezetimibe as a Safe and Efficacious Treatment for Chronic Hepatitis C

Start date: April 16, 2018
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

To address the need for more affordable hepatitis C virus (HCV) antivirals with high barriers to viral resistance and strategies to shorten the current treatment duration, the goal is to develop affordable therapeutic regimens to prevent HCV entry/spread and test the efficacy of those inhibitors for treating HCV infection. The investigators recently discovered that a major cholesterol uptake receptor is required for HCV entry into hepatocytes and that there is already an FDA-approved drug that inhibits cholesterol uptake by this receptor. Importantly the same drug also potently blocks HCV entry in human liver cells both in cell culture and in a small animal model. Further, looking back at people who were previously treated for HCV infection, the investigators found treatment response to be better (i.e. larger viral log reduction) in patients who happened to be taking ezetimibe (EZE). Hence, the objective of this study is to assess whether the FDA-approved drug (ezetimibe) is useful for the treatment of chronic HCV. The investigators predict that when administered as monotherapy ezetimibe will reduce HCV viremia perhaps allowing for viral clearance and that when included in combination treatment regimens that EZE will increase HCV decline resulting in faster viral clearance (i.e. shorter/cheaper direct-acting antiviral [DAA] therapy). To test these hypotheses, the investigators will execute the following aims: (1) Assess the efficacy of EZE monotherapy in chronically HCV infected and predict time to cure; (2) Assess the efficacy of EZE as an adjunct therapy in chronically HCV infected patients undergoing currently approved HCV DAA treatment.

NCT ID: NCT02293941 Terminated - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Liver Test Study of Using JKB-122 in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-Positive Patients Nonresponsive to Prior Interferon Based Therapies

JKB122
Start date: May 2014
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to assess changes in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected subjects given daily doses of JKB-122 for 3 months who have been nonresponsive to, intolerable to, or relapsed from prior interferon-based therapies (pegylated or standard) either alone or in combination with ribavirin or other anti-HCV therapies including direct-acting anti-viral agents.

NCT ID: NCT02112942 Terminated - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Study Assessing Single and Multiple Doses of IDX21459 in Healthy and HCV-Infected Subjects

Start date: March 2014
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

A multi-part study to evaluate the safety and PK of single ascending doses of IDX21549 in healthy and HCV-infected subjects. The effect of food on the PK of IDX21549 will also be evaluated. Antiviral activity will also be assessed in HCV-infected subjects.

NCT ID: NCT01997203 Terminated - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Long Term Vitamin D Therapy in HCV Treated Patients

VD-HCV
Start date: April 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection was carried out using pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN), ribavirin (RBV) and vitamin D (vit D) for 48 weeks in HCV genotypes 4a subjects. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of vitamin D on liver affection in such patients.

NCT ID: NCT01951209 Terminated - Liver Cirrhosis Clinical Trials

Pilot Study Of The Effect Of Rifaximin On B-Cell Dysregulation In Cirrhosis

Start date: November 17, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Hepatitis C is the leading cause of chronic liver disease and cirrhosis in United States veterans. Cirrhosis is associated with impaired antibody responses and increased risk of bacterial infections. We have recently identified that cirrhosis is associated with abnormalities of memory B-cells, cells that make antibodies and help protect against bacterial infections. We have identified that chemicals associated with gut bacteria might play a role in causing these B-cell abnormalities. It is well known that gut bacteria have increased access to the blood in individuals with cirrhosis, a process called bacterial translocation. We hypothesize that reducing bacteria counts in the gut by using poorly-absorbed antibiotics (also known as selective gut decontamination) will partially reverse losses of memory B-cells in cirrhosis by reducing bacterial translocation.

Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of PEGASYS® (peginterferon alfa-2a 40KD) plus Robatrol® (ribavirin) combination therapy given for 36 weeks versus 48 weeks on the clearance of HCV viremia 24 weeks after treatment end

NCT ID: NCT01492998 Terminated - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Role of FXR in Hepatitis C Virus Replication

GGST
Start date: January 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In vitro in the hepatitis C virus (HCV) replicon system, modulation of the biliary salts nuclear receptor FXR by either agonists or antagonists respectively increases or decreases the replication of HCV (J Hepatol, 2008, 48: 192-9). One antagonist of FXR is a vegetal sterol, guggulsterone, that is extracted from the Commiphora mukul tree and that has already been given safely to hyper cholesterolemic patients in a clinical trial (JAMA 2003, 290: 765-72). The aim of this trial is to test the effect of the FXR antagonist guggulsterone given orally, three times a day, on the viral load in 15 HCV genotype 1 chronically infected patients.
