Filter by:Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection is complicated by cirrhosis and liver cancer. In Thailand, 7% of adults are chronically infected by Hepatitis B virus (HBV). The risk of perinatal transmission of HBV is about 12% when a mother has a high HBV load in her plasma, even if her infant receive specific immunoglobulin and vaccine. The hypothesis of this study is that a potent antiviral, tenofovir, can decrease HBV load in HBV infected pregnant women and therefore reduce the risk of perinatal transmission/ Pregnant women participating in this study will receive tenofovir or placebo during the last trimester of pregnancy and two months postpartum. The risk of perinatal transmission will be compared between the two groups. The results of the study will help define policy to manage HBV infected pregnant women to prevent perinatal transmission.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of telbivudine and lamivudine use during late pregnancy for the prevention of HBV perinatal transmission in highly viraemic mothers.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of velpatasvir (formerly GS-5816) in HCV treatment naive participants with genotypes 1-6.
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the noninferiority of Algeron 1.5 and 2.0 μg/kg/week in combination with ribavirin compared to PegIntron in combination with ribavirin in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C, and to determine therapeutic dose of Algeron.
This multicenter, prospective, observational study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) in routine clinical practice in patients with HBeAg-positive or HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B. Eligible patients receiving treatment with Pegasys according to standard of care and the summary od product characteristics/local labelling will be followed for the duration of treatment and up to 2 years of follow-up.
This study will provide a rationale for switch from lamivudine plus adefovir to tenofovir monotherapy in Lamivudine plus Adefovir Treated Lamivudine-resistant chronic hepatitis B patients with Undetectable Hepatitis B Virus DNA
The investigators aim to clarify the issue of adequate duration of consolidation period of Chronic hepatitis B infection with antiviral treatment with Tenofovir which could strike a balance between durable HBeAg seroconversion and avoiding long-term inevitable serological or virological recurrence.
The relevant data will be prospectively collected included patient demographics, clinical, all laboratory variables including virological tests, genotyping by direct sequencing, abdominal ultrasound, and upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy. Trans jugular liver biopsy (TJLB) and hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) will be done in patients when it was not evident whether the underlying liver disease was chronic based on clinical, biochemical, radiological investigations, and upper GI endoscopy. Severity of the liver disease will be assessed by Child-Turcotte Pugh score (CTP) and model for end stage liver disease (MELD) score.
This multicenter, prospective, observational study will evaluate the use in clinical practice and the efficacy and safety of Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) in Chinese participants with HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B. Participants receiving Pegasys according to the local label will be followed for the duration of their treatment and for one year after cessation of treatment.
Tenofovir (TDF) has been demonstrated to have potency antiviral against the hepatitis B virus (HBV) in various multiple-centre trials, with no cases of resistance encountered. However, its efficacy and resistance profile in the Asian population, which constitute the majority of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, is unknown. Compared to other nucleoside analogues, TDF has been associated with relatively high rates of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroclearance. It would be interested to see if this could be reproduced. The investigators plan to report the serologic and virologic results of our 140 nucleoside analogue-experienced patients who were commenced on TDF.
