Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine how effective preemptive tenofovir therapy is in preventing the re-activation of Hepatitis B infection, in patients who are receiving rituximab-based chemotherapy for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma or CLL/SLL. The rate of re-activation will be compared between patients who receive preemptive tenofovir and patients who receive tenofovir as needed.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of GS-4774 in adults with CHB and who are currently not on treatment. Participants will be randomized to receive TDF alone or GS-4774 plus TDF for 20 weeks. After Week 20, GS-4774 will be discontinued. All participants will continue on TDF and will be followed for an additional 28 weeks. Following completion of the 48 week study period, all participants will be eligible for a treatment extension for 96 weeks.
This study looks at protection in 10-11 and 15-16 year olds, immunized as infants with Hepatitis B (HB) vaccine to see if they still have residual protection against Hepatitis B disease. Adolescents will be invited to have a blood test and those without a minimal level of protection (antibody titer) will be offered a "test" vaccination to see if they still have capacity to recall an immune response. About one month later they will get another blood test to see if a booster response occurred. A few participants will have lost protection (no booster response) and will be offered a second HB vaccination to restore protection. Results of this study could influence the way in which children in British Columbia (BC) are immunized against HB disease.
The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of anti-viral treatment on long-term outcome on patients with chronic hepatitis B.
This non-interventional clinical study will be conducted to prospectively collect serial plasma samples from subjects with chronic HBV infection who are initiating antiviral therapy. These samples will be used to estimate clinical utility endpoints for the Aptima HBV Quant assay, which is used as an aid in the management of HBV-infected patients undergoing HBV antiviral therapy.
This study will evaluate the humoral and cellular immune responses to a hepatitis B vaccine booster in healthy adults which received a full course of neonatal hepatitis B vaccination 20-23 years ago.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of vesatolimod in participants with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection currently being treated with oral antivirals (OAV). Participants will be randomized in 3 sequential cohorts (Cohorts A, B, and C). Within each cohort, participants will be randomized in a 1:3:3:3 ratio to placebo or one of the doses of vesatolimod (1, 2, or 4 mg).
The purpose of this long-term follow-up study was to evaluate the persistence of the cellular and the humoral immune response 4 years after the first dose of GSK Biologicals' investigational vaccine formulations containing HBsAg (used as a model antigen) and an adjuvant.
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of 10µg/0.5ml and 5µg/0.5ml hepatitis B vaccine made by recombinant deoxyribonudeic acid techniques in saccharomyces cereviside yeast for infants and other age groups.
In this project proposal, the investigators will investigate the genetic alterations of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) strains circulating in Belgian patients who developed end stage liver disease. Additionally, the investigators will compare and link these data sets with three genetic factors involved in immune system response.
