Filter by:•The purpose of this study is to compare the performance between liver biopsy and non-invasive fibrosis assessments evaluating anti-fibrotic efficacy of peginterferon plus ribavirin in patients with hepatitis C pre- and post-treatment
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of daclatasvir and simeprevir with and without ribavirin for genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C virus infection in patients who are treatment-naive or null responders to previous pegylated interferon/ribavirin therapy.
This study will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Engerix™-B (hepatitis B vaccine) when administered as a primary vaccination course at 0, 1 and 6 months in adults with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to determine if 24 weeks of treatment with Pegylated Interferon Lambda plus Ribavirin and 12 weeks of treatment with Pegylated Interferon Lambda plus Ribavirin and Daclatasvir will be safe and effective for treatment of hepatitis C compared to 24 weeks of treatment with Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a plus Ribavirin
A study to evaluate the safety and effect of treatment with experimental antiviral drugs in combination with peginterferon alpha-2a and ribavirin in people with hepatitis C virus who did not respond to treatment in a previous AbbVie/Abbott combination study.
This prospective observational study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of peginterferon alfa-2a in combination with ribavirin in participants with chronic hepatitis C, including participants with compensated liver cirrhosis, in clinical practice.
This multi-center, observational study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of dual and triple therapies based on Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Patients receiving treatment with either Pegasys plus ribavirin or Pegasys plus ribavirin plus telaprevir/boceprevir will be observed for the duration of their treatment and for up to 24 weeks of follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and effectiveness of peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin therapy in Korean chronic hepatitis C patients.
The goal of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) treatment is complete and permanent eradication of hepatitis B virus (HBV) from patient's body, which is best represented by serum HBsAg loss accompanied by undetectable serum HBV DNA level. While the most recently approved nucleos(t)ide analogues (NA) have marked antiviral potency and can induce HBV DNA undetectability in the majority of patients through prolonged treatment, NA need to be given long term, almost indefinitely, in most cases because they suppress HBV DNA only during therapy. For example, even after HBeAg-loss by a potent NA, suppression of serum HBV DNA to undetectable level is sustained only in about 23%-37% at 24 weeks off treatment. Thus, continuous therapy with NA until HBsAg clearance remains necessary in a majority of cases. The recent availability of commercial quantitative assays of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) has enabled quantitative HBsAg to be used as a biomarker for prognosis and treatment response in CHB. It has been suggested that HBsAg decline during lamivudine or entecavir therapy is slower and less pronounced compared to interferon treatment, despite a higher effect on HBV DNA suppression. Based on HBsAg kinetics, it has been estimated that the predicted median time to HBsAg loss in patients treated with lamivudine or entecavir is more than 30 years. Thus, treatment that can induce rapid decline of HBsAg would have clear advantage in reducing the treatment duration required to achieve HBsAg-loss. Interestingly, in a recent preliminary study, 24-weeks of treatment with telbivudine has induced HBsAg decline as comparable to pegylated interferon treatment. Although there has been no head-to-head trial comparing NAs in inducing HBsAg decline, previous studies consistently suggested that the decline of HBsAg is greater during telbivudine treatment compared with lamivudine or entecavir. Thus, in this clinical trial, the investigators will investigate whether telbivudine is more effective in inducing HBsAg decline compared with entecavir in HBeAg-positive CHB patients who have achieved undetectable serum HBV DNA by preceding entecavir treatment.
This is a multiple dose study of the safety and efficacy of MK-2748 to be done in 2 Parts. Part I will enroll genotype 1 (GT1) hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected participants and Part II will enroll genotype 3 (GT3) HCV-infected participants. Both Parts may run concurrently or may be staggered.
