Filter by:This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (ABT-493/ABT-530) in non-cirrhotic chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT)1 to GT6-infected Asian participants with or without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection who are HCV treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced with interferon (IFN) with or without ribavirin (RBV), OR sofosbuvir with RBV with or without IFN.
This is a multi-center, open-label trial of Elbasvir/ Grazoprevir 50/100 mg fixed dose combination 12 week treatment aimed to evaluate SVR12 in treatment naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C (genotype 1b) infection, associated with of metabolic syndrome. The study to be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices. A total of 60 subjects will be studied at 2 sites in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Males and Females treatment naïve patients with CHC genotype 1b infection associated with metabolic syndrome (MS), 18-70 years of age, with or without severe fibrosis / compensated cirrhosis will be enrolled. SVR 12 (primary endpoint) will be evaluated. Patients will be stratified by fibrosis stage and presence of metabolic syndrome components. Interim Analysis will be performed in order to estimate viral kinetics, applicability of SVR4 and durability of SVR12 by evaluation of virologic response at week 4 and 8 of treatment and follow-up at week 4 (SVR 4) and 24 will be performed - this will be a descriptive summary only without hypothesis testing. The main hypothesis is that 12-week therapy with MK-5172 in combination with MK-8742 for treatment-naïve patients with HCV genotype 1b with metabolic syndrome is not notably worse than the same course for treatment-naïve patients with HCV genotype 1b without metabolic syndrome.
This study has multiple parts. It will assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of AT-527 in healthy subjects and subjects infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). In addition, the study will assess the antiviral activity of AT-527 in subjects infected with HCV.
This was a Phase 3, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir (GLE)/pibrentasvir (PIB) for an 8 or 12-week treatment duration in adults in Brazil with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1 to GT6 infection, without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis, who were HCV treatment-naïve.
Globally, approximately 170 million people are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV); 350,000 deaths each year are caused by HCV infection (Perz,et al, 2006).The Egyptian Demographic Health Survey (EDHS), across sectional survey including hepatitis C virus (HCV)biomarkers, was conducted in 2008 on a large nationally representative sample (El-Zanaty F, et al 2009). It estimated HCV prevalence among the 15-59 years age group to be 14.7% (El-Zanaty F, et al 2009).Accordingly, Egypt has the highest HCV prevalence in the world (Lavanchy D, 2011), ( Shepard CW,et al 2005)..Interferon (INF)-free regimens of combined directly acting antivirals (DAAs) have shown improved efficacy and tolerability compared with interferon (IFN)-containing regimens, and they have become the standard of care for treatment of HCV genotype-1 (HCV-1)(Afdhal, et al, 2014).Insulin resistance is a state in which a given concentration of insulin produces a less-than-expected biological effect. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus in hepatitis C in cirrhotic patients is 27.3% which is higher than among non-cirrhotic hepatitis C patients (17.5%)(Romero-Gómez, 2006). HCV promotes insulin resistance and insulin resistance induces interferon resistance, steatosis and fibrosis progression in a genotype-dependent manner.In HCV-1, insulin resistance decreases sustained response rate, and increase the risk for the development of steatosis and fibrosis progression, However, the impact of insulin resistance in other genotypes seems not achieve enough importance to impair sustained response, probably due to the high sensitivity to peginterferon. The treatment of insulin resistance, decreasing hyperinsulinemia, could improve sustained response rate in patients with chronic HCV-1 infection when treated with peginterferon plus ribavirin(Romero-Gómez,2006). Objectives: we aim to determine the prevalence of insulin resistance among the patients with chronic hepatitis C virus( HCV) infection and to explore the association between insulin resistance and therapeutic response by comparing the insulin resistance among responders and non-responders to oral treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection Patients and methods: The study is intended to include patients of chronic hepatitis C virus infection receiving oral treatment for one year period. All patients will have clinical evaluation, ultrasonographic examination, and laboratory investigations which include complete blood count, liver function tests, estimation of fasting serum glucose, fasting serum insulin, and determination of insulin resistance index.The patients will be selected according the selection criteria determined by the National Committee for Control of Viral Hepatitis (NCCVH).
The primary objective of the study is to determine the number of adverse events (AEs) reported by chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients receiving at least 1 dose of daclatasvir (DCV) and asunaprevir (ASV) at the 2 sentinel sites and that have been reported through the Mexican Health Authority's AE surveillance system during a specified 24-month study period. The secondary objective is to describe AEs reported by CHC patients receiving treatment with DCV and ASV treated by doctors at participating sentinel sites for the National Pharmacovigilance Center (CNFV) in Mexico during a specified 24-month study period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether treatment with Epclusa (sofosbuvir/velpatasvir) after lung transplantation in individuals with chronic hepatitis C infection is feasible, safe and effective at curing HCV.
To determine the treatment efficacy, safety and long-term outcomes of chronic hepatitis C patients receiving directly acting antivirals in Taiwan
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is easy to chronic and can progress to cirrhosis and liver cancer. Direct-acting antiviral treatment can significantly improve the prognosis of the disease and the efficacy is seemingly not affected by a variety of viral factors. In addition, direct-acting antiviral agents therapy may affect the transformation of the immune cells and ameliorate the host immune status consequently. This study mainly investigated the relationship between Direct Acting Antiviral Treatment effect and the functional activity of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and natural killer cells (NK cells) in Chronic Hepatitis C.
Grazoprevir plus elbasvir 12 to 16 weeks is now approved for chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1, 4, or 6 infection regardless liver disease severity. The current study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of 8-week grazoprevir/elbasvir in HCV-1b patients with mild liver fibrosis
