Filter by:A single center, randomized, double blinded phase I/IIa exploratory study to evaluate reactogenicity, safety, immunogenicity and dose-response of a new hepatitis B vaccine in human adult
Data for stool microbiome will be collected for all the chronic hepatitis B subjects (pre cirrhotic,compensated,decompensated and reactivation). All the in and out patient with Hepatitis B reactivation will be recruited and randomized into two arms. Group 1 Tenofovir Group 2 Tenofovir with FMT (Fecal Microbiota Transplant). Tenofovir would be given 300 mg once daily FMT through NJ (Naso-Jejunal) tube for 7 days.
The project aims to retrieve patients diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B (cHB) and hepatitis C (cHC) who are lost to follow-up.Data files of the Public Health System and microbiology laboratories will be explored for registered cases of cHB and cHC. Subsequently the investigators will compare the registered cases with the list of known cHB and cHC patients in hospital care. Patients lost to follow up will be informed and approached via either the Public Health Service (PHS) or their primary care physician. Identified patients will be invited for re-evaluation at the regional hepatitis centre (The North Western Hospital, formerly Medical Centre Alkmaar) to assess the current status of their chronic disease. Evaluation will be performed in accordance with (inter-)national guidelines, no extra interventions will be performed. After completion of re-evaluation, a final report will be made and send to both patient and primary care physician with recommendations for further follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pharmacokinetics and safety data including serious and other adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) and clinical laboratory results (including biochemistry, hematology, and urine).
Chronic liver diseases of differing etiologies are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide [1]. Chronic liver disease progresses through different pathological stages that vary from mild hepatic inflammation without fibrosis to advanced hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis [2]. Assessment of the stage of liver disease is important for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up both during treatment and after cessation of treatment. A liver biopsy is the oldest and most accurate method used to evaluate liver histology and the progression of chronic liver disease. Furthermore, different histological scoring systems have been developed and modified [3]. A liver biopsy is considered the gold standard for assessing liver histology [4]. During the pathological progression of liver fibrosis, excessive amounts of extracellular matrix build up; furthermore, serum levels of various biomarkers change, in addition to the appearance of new biomarkers in the serum during the different stages of fibrosis [2, 5]. Recently many noninvasive markers (NIMs) for assessing liver fibrosis have been developed, and they are frequently used in clinical practice. They have been validated in different studies, and some were found to be highly accurate in the assessment of liver fibrosis compared with liver biopsies [6-7], which have always been used as the standard reference method for evaluating the accuracy of noninvasive methods. There are limited studies documenting the cost effectiveness of non invasive markers over invasive technique. Most people with chronic Hepatitis B or C are unaware of their infection, putting them at serious risk of developing cirrhosis or liver cancer which are life threatening. Similarly patients with non alcoholic fatty liver diseases are unaware about fibrosis in liver. About 20-50% of persistent infection ends up into fibrosis and finally cirrhosis. Invasive and non invasive diagnostic methods are widely used to detect the fibrosis. Clinicians use different drugs and combinations to treat HBV and HCV infections. However, there is scarcity of a longitudinal prospective study to assess the cost effectiveness of these diagnostic measures. We planned to conduct a retrospective followed by prospective cohort study among all cases that underwent biopsy in ILBS or GB Pant Hospital since 2000 till Dec 2020 with HBV infection, HCV infection, or non alcoholic fatty liver disease. For retrospective cohort study, we will collect data from hospital information system for all patients with HBV infection, HCV infection, or non alcoholic fatty liver disease, who underwent biopsy during the period of 2000-Dec 2015. The new patients with HBV infection, HCV infection, or non alcoholic fatty liver disease who will undergo biopsy during the period Jan 2016- Dec 2020 will serve as a cohort for prospective design. We will collect socio-demographic data, clinical data, family history, personal history, medical history, anthropometry, biochemical and radiological data from each patient. We will also be conducting a cost effective analysis for various non invasive markers against biopsy as a gold standard in predicting fibrosis, both for retrospective and prospective cohorts. For prospective cohort study, after evaluation of baseline biopsy results, the cases with metavir fibrosis score (F0-3) will be followed for a period of 5 years to document incidence of development and progression of fibrosis. No additional investigation or test will be asked to the patient for the study. We will also develop a predicting model for development and progression of fibrosis.
This study is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind (Sponsor unblinded), placebo controlled, dose escalation study to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of GSK3389404 as single (Part 1) and multiple subcutaneous (SC) injections (Part 2) in healthy subjects. This study represents the first administration of GSK3389404 in humans to define the safety, tolerability and PK following single and multiple doses of GSK3389404 in healthy subjects.
This study evaluates whether PegIFN alfa-2a add on can improve CHB patients HBsAg clearance at the end of 48 weeks treatment. The CHB patients who received nucleot(s)ides anti-virus treatment and reached HBV DNA<1000 copies/ml and HBsAg<3000 IU/ml, were randomly assigned into two groups: One group continue the nucleot(s)ides treatment for 72 weeks, the other add on PegIFN alfa-2a on the basis of the original treatment for 48 weeks, and follow up for 24 weeks.
The study is a phase 2a, single blind, randomized, placebo controlled, study evaluating the safety, anti-viral activity, and pharmacokinetics (PK) following multiple doses of intravenous ARB-001467
The anti-virus effects is not satisfying in some of Chronic Hepatitis B(CHB) patients who have been on anti-Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) drugs therapy. Dendritic cell (DC) is critical in Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) specific immunity in the process of producing HBV promoter specific cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) and specific T helper cells (HTLs), however they are defective in CHB patients. Therefore, if it were going to remove HBV completely, it mainly depends if the body itself can produce enough HBV specific cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) and specific T helper cells (HTLs). Our research is to plus Hepatitis B Vaccine Activated-DCs therapy to CHB patients who have been on anti-HBV drugs but with poor effects, supposing to significantly improve anti-HBV efficacy, even to clean HBV from the patients.
