Filter by:Populations from Sub-Saharan Africa represent one of the most dynamic immigration flows in France and are among the most exposed to HIV infection and hepatitis B. The Parcours study aims to understand, among sub-Saharan African migrants, how social and individual factors combine in the course of migration and settlement in France, and influence the risk of infection, access to prevention and care, and the effectiveness of care for both HIV and hepatitis B diseases. The research was conducted in Ile-de-France, where 60% of sub-Saharan African migrants reside. It consists in a cross-sectional observational survey, using a life-event history approach that reproduces the sequence of different life and health events, and contributes to explain the present situation (type of disease management, patient's quality of life) in light of all the elements of the past trajectory (administrative, familial, socio-economic, professionals). A representative survey was conducted between February 2012 and May 2013 in health care facilities in Ile-de-France, among three groups of migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa: a group living with HIV, a group living with chronic hepatitis B and a group who has neither of these diseases. For each group, stratified random sampling was used. The survey was conducted in 24 hospital services providing HIV care, 20 health care facilities providing hepatitis B care, and 30 primary health care facilities. Were eligible all patients attending these health care facilities, born in a Sub-Saharan African country and with Sub-Saharan African citizenship at birth, aged 18 to 59 years, with an HIV diagnosis (HIV group) or chronic hepatitis B diagnosis (hepatitis B group) more than three months prior or not diagnosed with HIV or chronic Hepatitis B (reference group). Among the patients offered participation, 926 HIV-infected patients, 779 patients infected by hepatitis B, and 763 patients without these two diseases participated in the study. For all participants, detailed information on socio-demographic characteristics; migration and life conditions in France; social, sexual and reproductive life history; and screening and care history were collected using a life-event history questionnaire administered face-to-face by a specialized interviewer. Health care professionals documented clinical information from the medical records. Data was collected anonymously.
NAPs have been previously shown to clear serum hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) both preclinically (in duck HBV infected ducks) and in human patients. REP 2139-Ca mediated HBsAg clearance acts synergistically with immunotherapeutic agent pegylated interferon-alpha 2a to restore host immunological control of HBV infection. REP 2165 is a version of REP 2139 which has been shown preclinically to retain antiviral activity with lower accumulation in the liver. Both REP 2139 and REP 2165 used in this protocol are formulated as magnesium chelate complexes, which improve their administration tolerability. This open label, randomized and controlled study will examine the safety and efficacy of REP 2139-Mg and REP 2165-Mg therapy in patients with HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B when used in combination with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and pegylated interferon alpha-2a.
All patients with chronic kidney disease (stages 3, 4 and 5) and chronic dialysis patients with HCV infection attending nephrology and Hepatology OPD or getting outpatient dialysis at the dialysis unit of ILBS.
This use-results post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study for Sovaldi® tablets (sofosbuvir, SOF) administered in combination with Rebetol® capsules (ribavirin, REB) will evaluate the safety and efficacy of SOF administered in combination with ribavirin under real world use in Japan. Among adult patients with chronic genotype 2 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and treated with SOF+ribavirin in routine clinical use, the primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) under real world settings.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy, safety and recurrence rate of two therapeutic strategies with ribavirin in patients with chronic hepatitis E and severe acute hepatitis E: fixed duration of treatment for 12 weeks vs variable duration depending on the viremia within 4 weeks of the start of treatment (12 vs 24 weeks). The purpose of the study is also improve the safety of treatment with Ribavirin by optimizing dose adjusted to renal function, plasma levels of drug and hemoglobin.
This is a Phase 2, pilot study in which JKB-122 is given once daily for 24 weeks in subjects with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) who have liver enzymes that are 1.25 to 10 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) and who have had a failed response to, incomplete response to, intolerant to, ineligible to, or unwilling to take current immunosuppressant therapies. The dose of JKB-122 will be escalated monthly.
The purpose of the study is to determine if combination therapy with daclatasvir (DCV) and sofosbuvir (SOF) for 8 weeks is safe and effective in patients who have never been treated previously without liver cirrhosis who are chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV)/HIV-1 Coinfection genotype (GT) 1, 2, 3, 4 patients.
This is a prospective study to determine the incidence, morbidity, mortality and predisposing factors for the reactivation of hepatitis B virus replication during direct anti-HCV treatment of HCV/HBV co-infection patients.
The Prime Study is a randomised trial investigating models of care for hepatitis C in the era of direct acting antiviral (DAA) therapy. The study aims to compare outcomes of hepatitis C care and DAA treatment provided in a primary health care service with a tertiary hospital.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of hepatitis B in Vallés Occidental. Also, describe the stage of the disease, and whether if they are under medical treatment or not.
