Filter by:The main objective of this study is to establish interferon-beta-1a as the treatment of choice for chronic Hepatitis C with better efficacy and safety profiles in monotherapy or combination therapy. This will be a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with a placebo to be crossed-over to a combination of interferon-beta-1a and ribavirin or no treatment during an open-label extension phase. The duration of the trial will be 48 weeks, with a double-blind period of 12 weeks. The study will recruit 257 eligible subjects of either sex. It will be conducted by approximately 16 Investigators / investigational centers in 3 countries (China, Hong Kong and Singapore).
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of epoetin-alpha will allow patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection to be treated with higher doses of peginterferon-alpha-2b and ribavirin, thus increasing chances at lower viral levels and raising sustained virologic response.
There is some information available that indicates that Milk Thistle is an effective treatment for liver disease. This study will compare Milk Thistle with a placebo, (a medicine that looks just like Milk Thistle but does not contain any Milk Thistle) to see if people with both Hepatitis C and HIV infections show improvement or cure of Hepatitis C. The study will last one year.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Pegasys® 180μg for subcutaneous (s.c.) injection in interferon (IFN)-treated or IFN-untreated chronic hepatitis C patients except for those infected with genotype 1b of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and a high viral load (≥ 100 KIU/mL). In addition, this study will explore the efficacy and safety of Pegasys® 180μg for s.c. injection given at 2 different periods between 24 and 48 weeks in IFN-untreated chronic hepatitis C patients.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of (a) immunization setting and (b) outreach worker support on young injection drug users' (IDU) adherence to a multiple dose immunization schedule with a combined hepatitis A virus (HAV) inactivated and hepatitis B virus (HBV) recombinant vaccine.
Spontaneous resolution of acute hepatitis C infection cannot be predicted and the majority of cases persist and become chronic. This randomized trial assesses the efficacy and safety of peginterferon alfa-2b. The investigators hypothesize that therapy strategies could prevent the development of chronic hepatitis.
This study is performed to evaluate the persistence of anti-hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs) antibodies up to 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 years after administration of the first dose of the study vaccine, Engerix-B™. No new subjects will be recruited in this long-term follow-up study. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.

Efficacy and safety is compared between interferon alfacon-1 alone and concomitant dosing of interferon alfacon-1 and ribavirin in hepatitis C patients.
