Filter by:The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of TMC647055, TMC435, and low-dose ritonavir, administered together with and without ribavirin and of TMC647055, TMC435, low-dose ritonavir administered together with GSK233680k without ribavirin in a limited number of patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a Response Guided Therapy of boceprevir 800 mg dosed three times a day (TID) orally (PO) in combination with Peginterferon (either alpha 2b or alpha 2a) and Ribavirin in HIV/HCV genotype 1 infected patients that failed to previous HCV therapy.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of treating persons who are actively using illicit drugs for hepatitis C using a collaborative, multidisciplinary, integrated care model. We hypothesize that by maximizing facilitators and minimizing barriers to treatment we can enable drug users to receive effective treatment for hepatitis C.
This is a study of the safety and efficacy of grazoprevir (MK-5172) in combination with elbasvir (MK-8742) ± ribavirin (RBV). The primary efficacy endpoint will be Sustained Virologic Response 12 weeks after the end of all study therapy (SVR12) in each of the treatment arms.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-450, ritonavir and ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267; ABT-267 also known as ombitasvir) and ABT-333 (also known as dasabuvir) co-administered with ribavirin (RBV) in hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infected treatment-naïve adults.
This study will compare two different durations of treatment with grazoprevir (MK-5172) in combination with ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naïve non-cirrhotic interferon-eligible interleukin 28b CC (IL28B CC) genotype participants with genotype 1 (GT1)-positive chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Participants will be randomized to receive 12 or 24 weeks of combination therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-450, ritonavir and ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267; ABT-267 also known as ombitasvir) and ABT-333 (also known as dasabuvir) co-administered with ribavirin (RBV) in hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infected treatment-experienced adults.
Entecavir, a potent antiviral agent, has been widely used for treatment-naïve chronic hepatitis B patients. However, about 20% of patients showed partial virologic response after 2 year of entecavir therapy (33% in HBeAg positive, 10% in HBeAg negative patients). Tenofovir is a nucleotide analogue with more potent antiviral activity. In addition, there is no cross resistance between the two drugs. Therefore it is assumed that tenofovir would be effective in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B patients who shows partial virologic response (detectable HBV DNA by real time PCR after 12 months of treatment) despite treatment with entecavir. In this study, we will compare the efficacy of switching to tenofovir with continuing entecavir in patients who shows partial virologic response to entecavir.
Viral hepatitis is a serious world health problem affecting over 1 billion people worldwide. Presently the lack of highly effective treatments results in many patients requiring liver transplantation or death. The investigators have defined the role of a unique molecule FGL2 and its receptor fc-gammaR and its role in the pathogenesis of both experimental and human hepatitis. The studies proposed in the present proposal will test the hypothesis that measuring levels of fgl2 in plasma will identify individuals that will go on to develop chronic disease and inhibition of binding of fgl2 to its receptor will allow the host with both acute and chronic disease to develop an appropriate immune response and clear the virus. The studies will provide rationale for generation of new therapies to improve the treatment of patients with acute and chronic viral hepatitis by targeting fgl2.
This is a study designed to compare the safety and efficacy of 3 different doses of grazoprevir (MK-5172) combined with pegylated interferon alfa-2b (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naïve participants with genotype 1 (GT1) chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Participants will receive 12 weeks of treatment with grazoprevir combined with Peg-IFN and RBV, and depending on response at Week 4 may go on to receive an additional 12 weeks of treatment with Peg-IFN and RBV.
