Filter by:Background: People with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) tend to get infections more easily. This is because their immune systems are weakened. Hepatitis B is a virus that can be transmitted when body fluids from an infected person enter the body of an uninfected person. This virus can be dangerous for people with leukemia and lymphoma. HEPLISAV-B is a new hepatitis B vaccine. Researchers want to see if it can protect people with CLL/SLL from getting hepatitis B. Objective: To learn how HEPLISAV-B works in people who have CLL or SLL. Eligibility: Adults 18 years and older with CLL (or SLL). They must be getting no treatment for their CLL, or getting ibrutinib or acalabrutinib for it. Design: This study lasts 6 months from the date of first vaccination. Participants may be screened with: Physical exam Blood tests Pregnancy test Visit 1 Participants will get blood drawn and the study vaccine. It will be given as an injection. If they get any symptoms within 7 days of the vaccine, they will write them in a diary. Visit 2 After 3 months, participants will come back to the NIH to get another blood draw and the second vaccine dose. Visit 3 Participants will return 3 months after the second vaccine dose was given. They will have blood drawn.
Globally, an estimated 257 million individuals have chronic hepatitis B-virus infection (CHB). In the absence of treatment 15-40% of these will progress to liver cirrhosis and/or hepatocellular carcinoma. Oral antiviral treatment suppresses the virus and improves prognosis, but less than 0.5% per year achieve a "functional cure" (i.e. HBsAg loss). One remaining controversy, therefore, is whether antiviral treatment must continue life-long. Observational studies have assessed stopping antiviral treatment after years of viral suppression; however, HBsAg loss has rarely been seen. But interestingly, a few small trials that chose watchful waiting instead of re-initiation of treatment when reactivation occurred, achieved 40% HBsAg loss during 6 years follow-up. The present proposal is a randomized controlled trial that will assess the safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness of treatment discontinuation - and delayed restart - in HBeAg negative CHB. The study is sufficiently powered to address the hypotheses, and a pilot study that demonstrates feasibility has been performed. Patients will be enrolled at 12 Norwegian hospitals, in addition to our collaborating institution in Ethiopia - the largest CHB treatment center in sub-Saharan Africa. If the study shows that discontinuation is safe and effective, it will directly impact both national and international treatment guidelines. Main objective: -To study whether stopping nucleoside analogue (NA) therapy - and delaying re-start - can trigger an immune response and set off a functional cure (viz HBsAg loss) Secondary objectives: - Assess whether stopping NA therapy - and delaying re-start - leads to a higher chance of HBsAg loss - Assess the safety of stopping NA therapy - and delaying re-start - in terms of hepatic decompensation, fibrosis progression, and/or adverse events - Study whether stopping NA therapy - and delaying re-start - leads to a higher chance of sustained off-therapy immune control (low viral load and normal ALT) - Assess the quality of life and cost-effectiveness of stopping NA therapy - and delaying re-start - Identify predictors of HBsAg loss
The study will explore the characteristics in clinical pharmacokinetics of gefitinib, erlotinib,afatinib,osimertinib, crizotinib, apatinib, icotinib in Chinese patients of Non-small-cell lung cancer and hepatitis B. The study is self-controlled. The plasma concentration of tyrosine kinase inhibitors will be analyzed before and after system treatment of HBV.
This is a phase 1/2 study in which healthy adult subjects and subjects with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection will receive VIR-2218 or placebo and will be assessed for safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity (only in subjects with chronic HBV). In the single ascending dose (SAD) part, Part A, healthy adult subjects will receive one dose of VIR-2218 or placebo, administered subcutaneously (SC). In the multiple ascending dose (MAD) parts, Part B & Part C, subjects with chronic HBV infection will receive two doses of VIR-2218 or placebo every 4 weeks administered SC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the drug-drug-interaction (DDI), pharmacokinetics (PK) and tolerability of Morphothiadine Mesilate/Ritonavir combined with Entecavir or Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate in healthy subjects
All patients with chronic HBeAg negative hepatitis B treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues, who discontinue treatment based in the criteria outlined in the EASL hepatitis B guidelines shall be included in the present study. The aim is to evaluate the clinical outcome (virological relapse, HBsAg decline) and associated virological and immunological parameters.
This study is a post-marketing surveillance of Besivo in participants with chronic hepatitis B.
HBV-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a clinical syndrome defined as acute hepatic insult with diagnosed or undiagnosed chronic liver disease. Current clinical guidelines advocate oral antiviral treatment in HBV-related ACLF. However, no conclusion on which nucleoside analogue is the most satisfactory drug for the treatment of HBV-related liver failure has not been reached yet. In this cohort study, the investigators will compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) and entecavir (ETV) in HBV-related ACLF in China. In addition, the drug metabolism characteristics of TAF will be explored in such severe liver injury population of HBV-ACLF.
The Safety, Antiviral Activity, and pharmacokinetics of Morphothiadine Mesilate Capsules/Ritonavir Tablets in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B is a common and serious infectious disease of the liver, affecting millions of people throughout the world. Persistent Hepatitis B virus infections may cause development of chronic hepatic insufficiency, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Adding to that, Hepatitis B Virus carriers can transmit the disease for many years. It is transmitted through blood or other body fluids infected with the Hepatitis B virus. It is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in countries like Bangladesh. Immunization with Hepatitis B vaccine has been proved effective to prevent HBV infection. But the vaccines, which are recommended till now, are expensive. Locally manufactured Hepatitis B vaccine will be safe, cost effective and affordable for all. The test vaccine will induce similar seroprotection rates to hepatitis B one month post-vaccination and at 7 months, one month after the third dose of vaccine compared to reference vaccine. This will be done by comparing the percentages of participants with ≥10 mIU/ml anti-HBs by vaccinated with either Hepa B or Engerix B vaccine. The non-inferiority margin will be 10%.
