Filter by:CR-HepB registry started in June 30,2012 to collect HBV cases from general hospitals or specialized hospitals for infectious diseases in mainland China. Demographics, diagnosis, laboratory test results, family history and prescriptions were recorded. The main criteria for registration is HBsAg-positivity more than 6 months, and these patients will receive followed-up visits every three to six months.
Ezetimibe possesses pharmacophore features to inhibit NTCP, the receptor required for HBV and HDV hepatocyte entry, that include two hydrophobes and one hydrogen bond acceptor. The aim of the study io evaluate the utility of Ezetimibe in combination with pegylated interferon in patients with chronic HDV infection.
Ezetimibe possesses pharmacophore features to inhibit NTCP, the receptor required for HBV and HDV hepatocyte entry that include two hydrophobes and one hydrogen bond acceptor. Therapy with Ezetimibe may lead to decline in hepatitis D virus levels. The aim of the study is to evaluate the utility of Ezetimibe in patients with chronic HDV infection
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the durability of Sustained virologic response (SVR) in participants who achieved SVR at last post-therapy visit of parent studies (LPVPS) with NCT Numbers NCT02569710 and NCT02765490.
hepatitis C virus (HCV) has traditionally been treated in subspecialty health centers given the complexity of older pegylated interferon containing regimens, formerly the standard of care. This model has persisted into the modern era of direct anti-viral agents (DAAs) despite their relative simplicity, creating a bottleneck of human resources necessary to fight the largest infectious epidemic in North America. In addition, stigma and fear over cost has lead payers to restrict treatment in People Who Inject Drugs (PWIDs), even though a majority of new infections occur in this population. This study evaluates the effectiveness of treatment of HCV with elbasvir-grasoprevir in PWIDs in a real world, community health clinic setting. There are two prospective cohorts of PWIDs of 25 patients each, both in primary care-based community health clinics in Portland, Oregon. Cohort one is actively engaged with ambulatory medication assisted therapy with buprenorphine or extended released injectable naltrexone. Cohort two maintains active injection drug use with needle exchange and risk reduction education. These groups are compared to a 50 patient retrospective cohort of people with substance use disorders at tertiary care hepatology-based treatment program. All patients have genotype 1 or 4 HCV and are treated with elbasvir-grasoprevir for 12 weeks. The investigators hypothesize there is no difference in sustained viremic response at 12 or 48 weeks post-completion of treatment (SVR 12, 48) when treating patients in a community health clinic setting as compared to the standard-of-care subspecialty setting.
Study population: Patients attending the Out Patient Department and admitted to Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences. Study design: Prospective randomized controlled trial Study period: One year- January 2017- December 2018 Sample size: 130 (65 cases in each group) Intervention: The subjects will be given Fecal Microbiota Transplantation through a NJ tube placed after admission to the hospital. Participants will be administered the processed fecal microbiota sample collected from a related or unrelated healthy donor for a period of 7 days. Monitoring and assessment: The recipient will be monitored every day after Fecal Microbiota Transplantation therapy. The recipient will undergo physical examination, complete blood counts, at baseline and a chest X ray, serum procalcitonin, CRP and Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha levels, Liver Function Tests, Kidney Function Tests, International Normalized Ratio and arterial ammonia, at day 0,4,7,14,28,90,180,270 and 365 from the start of therapy. Microbiota analysis of the donors will be done at baseline and the recipients will be done on day 0,7,28,90 & 180.
Objective: Pegulated Interferon α2 plus ribavirin is a treatment of choice in patients with chronic hepatitis C infection. This study was conducted to find out the frequency of different IL-28B (rs12979860) genotypes in patients with chronic hepatitis C (HCV genotype type 2 & 3) infection treated with Pegulated Interferon α2 plus ribavirin and to evaluate the role of IL-28B genotypes in achieving Sustained Virological Response (SVR). Methods: In this non-randomized observational study, ninety eight (98) patients with diagnosis of chronic hepatitis C were included. In all patients, Peg-IFN plus Ribavirin were given in standard doses for 24 weeks. End treatment response, sustained virological response, and relapse rate were the primary endpoints of this study. Analysis of IL28B (rs12979860) polymorphism (CC, CT and TT) was performed by PCR-RFLP protocol.
A Phase 3b, single arm, open-label, multicenter study in treatment naïve adults with chronic HCV infection and compensated cirrhosis to assess the safety of 8 weeks of treatment with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir and to demonstrate the efficacy of the sustained virologic response 12 weeks post dosing (SVR12) rates of 8 weeks of treatment with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir compared to the historical SVR12 rates of 12 weeks of treatment with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir.
The purpose of the OPDEP pilot study is to assess the feasibility of implementing a pre-operative HIV / HCV / HBV screening proposal for all persons over 18 years of age and refer for surgical intervention under general anesthesia in the Department of Stomatology of the Pitié-salpêtrière hospital. Patients undergoing treatment in Stomatology have particular areas at risk for the infections we are looking for: young patients, precarious situation, drug use, migrants ... The aim is to evaluate the conditions for a generalization of screening in the framework of the preoperative assessment.
Objective: To coordinate active tracing of chronic hepatitis C patients lost to follow-up to inform them about there disease severity and treatment options. Study design: This is a prospective cohort study, which will start as a pilot study in the Radboudumc Population: lost to follow-up chronic hepatitis C patients in the region Nijmegen. This so-called lost population consists of all patients, that in the past have been identified at the Radboudumc but who are currently lost to or have been withdrawn from follow-up. The time-span of interest will be 2000-2015. We estimate that this project will retrace 100 lost patients through this search.
