Filter by:In this study, HBV-infected pregnant women were divided into two groups, those who received and those who did not receive hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) during pregnancy. In the mothers, the changes in HBV serum markers (hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), HBeAg, hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb)), and the DNA load were investigated. Immunohistochemical staining with custom-made antibodies against HBIG revealed both the level and distribution of HBIG in placentas. The protective mechanism of HBIG administrated during pregnancy was explored.
This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (E/C/F/TAF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis B virus (HBV) coinfected adults. Participants will be enrolled into two cohorts: - Cohort 1: HIV/HBV coinfected adults who are HIV treatment-naive and HBV treatment-naive - Cohort 2: HIV/HBV coinfected adults who are HIV-suppressed
Vertical HIV transmission has been dramatically reduced by the use of combined antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected pregnant women. Among the most often used drugs, several have dual activity, against HIV and HBV: lamivudine, emtricitabine, tenofovir. Studies about vertical HBV transmission from HIV-HBV co-infected pregnant women are rare in developed countries. The study hypothesis is a major reduction of the risk of HBV vertical transmission.
The risk of vertical HBV transmission is related to HBV DNA level in pregnant women, around 30% in women with HBV DNA above 1, 000 000 I.U/mL despite serovaccination of newborns. Using tenofovir DF during the last trimester of pregnancy allows to reduce the risk, but data from Western countries are needed.
This trial studies hepatitis B screening strategies of new cancer patients scheduled to undergo chemotherapy. Patients with cancer and hepatitis B virus infection are at risk of reactivation of infection after chemotherapy. Hepatitis B virus infection reactivation can be prevented by starting antivirals before chemotherapy in patients who are hepatitis B virus infection positive. Hepatitis B screening may help doctors prevent the reactivation of hepatitis B virus infection after chemotherapy.
Infants of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected mothers with positive hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) have an increased risk of becoming infected with HBV. This study will determine whether telbivudine among both hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBeAg positive pregnant women during the third trimester, in addition to standard immunoprophylaxis in infants, will be more effective than standard immunoprophylaxis alone at preventing HBV infections in these infants.
Dose cohorts may be dosed with one of up to 4 possible total weekly doses (0.3 mg, 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg). Dose escalation or repetition will be governed by pre-specified safety and activity rules. Subjects will be confined on either days 1-3 or days 1-3 and 8-10. Follow-up visits are also required periodically through day 43, and potential viral load follow-up visits at weeks 3 and 6 months post last dose. Study procedures involve blood draws for pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, virologic, and safety assessments
The purpose of this study is to provide entecavir to participants who have completed another entecavir trial without achieving virologic response or who relapsed during postdosing follow-up.
