Filter by:In this study, depressed veterans with hepatitis C will be randomly assigned to the control group or to the exercise intervention group. The exercise intervention is designed to begin slowly for most participants and to progress within each participant's target heart rate range for moderate intensity exercise. The exercise intervention is a 12 week home based walking program. Ideally individuals will walk for 30 minutes, at a moderate intensity, a minimum of three times per week. However, the duration and relative intensity will be tailored for each individual. Central Hypothesis Veterans who receive the exercise intervention will be significantly less symptomatic for depression than veterans in the control group.
A double-blind randomized, parallel, multicenter with 48 weeks of treatment period. The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and antiviral activity of 48-week Clevudine and Adefovir dipivoxil in HBeAg(-) Chronic Hepatitis B with compensated liver function.
This study will explore HBV kinetics in CHB patients during the first 24 weeks of treatment with telbivudine
The purpose of this study is to determine if nitazoxanide in combination with peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin is safe and effective in treating chronic hepatitis C in treatment-naive patients.
This is a randomized, open-labelled, prospective 96-week study comparing the antiviral efficacy and safety of switching to entecavir 0.5mg QD from lamivudine versus maintaining lamivudine 100mg QD treatment in CHB patients currently receiving lamivudine monotherapy.
This study will examine the safety, tolerability and plasma pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of MK-3281 in healthy male participants in Part I, and in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-infected male participants in Part II. The clinical efficacy of MK-3281, as measured by viral load reduction, will also be assessed in Part II. The primary hypothesis is that twice daily administration of MK-3281 for 10 days in healthy adult male participants and for 7 days in HCV-infected male participants is sufficiently safe and well tolerated, based on assessment of clinical and laboratory adverse experiences, to permit continued clinical investigation. The results of this study will guide dose selection for future studies in both healthy participants and HCV-infected participants.
We hypothesize that integrating Hepatitis C into methadone and buprenorphine treatment will improve Hepatitis C outcomes as well as drug treatment outcomes in patients who are addicted to opiates. We will test this hypothesis by randomly assigning patients to receive integrated or separated care. The first group will receive Hepatitis C treatment and substance abuse treatment contemporaneously at the South Central Rehabilitation Center (SCRC). They will take both methadone or buprenorphine and Hepatitis C medications under the daily (methadone) or weekly (buprenorphine) observation of a health care provider. The second group will receive substance abuse treatment at SCRC, and go to another facility to receive Hepatitis C treatment services. These participants will take their medications on their own (without observation). We will look at outcomes such as Hepatitis C viral loads, adherence to medications, and drug treatment outcomes such as receipt of buprenorphine and methadone and urine toxicology testing.
Combination therapy with pegylated interferon-alpha plus ribavirin has greatly improved the treatment efficacy and is the mainstream of treatment for chronic hepatitis C infection. The efficacy and safety of pegylated interferon-alpha plus ribavirin combination therapy and its impact on the outcome in chronic hepatitis C patients concomitant with malignancy other than hepatocellular carcinoma deserve to be elucidated. The purposes of this study are: 1. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pegylated interferon-alpha 2a plus ribavirin combination therapy in chronic hepatitis C patients concomitant with malignancy other than hepatocellular carcinoma, compare to those without systemic malignancy. 2. To investigate the role of baseline and on-treatment factors on the response to pegylated interferon-alpha 2a plus ribavirin combination therapy in chronic hepatitis C patients concomitant with malignancy other than hepatocellular carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, HCV RNA kinetics, and other viral characteristics after administration of two arms of MP-424 in combination with Peginterferon Alfa 2b (PEG-IFN-a-2b) and Ribavirin (RBV) to patients with chronic hepatitis C.
Combination therapy with pegylated interferon-alpha plus ribavirin has greatly improved the treatment efficacy and is the mainstream of treatment for chronic hepatitis C infection. The efficacy and safety of pegylated interferon-alpha plus ribavirin combination therapy and its impact on the outcome in older patients with chronic hepatitis C deserve to be elucidated. The purposes of this study are: 1. To evaluate the efficacy of pegylated interferon-alpha 2a plus ribavirin combination therapy in older patients with chronic hepatitis C 2. To investigate the safety of pegylated interferon-alpha 2a plus ribavirin combination therapy in older patients with chronic hepatitis C
