Filter by:To evaluate the proportion of patients with undetectable HCV RNA at 12 weeks post end of treatment (SVR12) following sofosbuvir/GS-5816 therapy for 12 weeks in people with chronic HCV infection and recent injection drug use.
Objectives: 1) To evaluate la proportion of hepatitic C virus (HCV)-monoinfected patients who show sustained virologic response (SVR) to treatment including direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) in the clinical practice in clinical units that treat infectious diseases and 2) to determine the frequency of adverse events, including those that are severe and/or cause treatment interruption, in DAA-based therapy in this setting. Design: Multicentric, prospective post-authorised cohort study. Setting: Hospitals of the Hepatitis Study Group (GEHEP) of the Spanish Society of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology (SEIMC). Study population: HCV-monoinfected patients that initiate DAA-based treatment outside clinical trials. Variables: The primary efficacy outcome variable is the proportion of patients who reach undetectable HCV-RNA 12 weeks after the scheduled end of therapy (SVR12). The primary safety outcome variable is the percentage of subjects who discontinue therapy due to adverse events. Statistical analysis: A descriptive study will be performed, as well as a double sensibility analysis of the frequency of SVR12 using both an intention-to-treat and an on-treatment approach. Those variables that are associated with SVR12 with a p-value <0.2 will be included in a logistic regression analysis in which SVR12 will be the dependent variable.
Metformin treatment during 36 months could be associated with decreased risk of HCC occurrence and liver related death in patients with compensated HCV cirrhosis and insulinoresistance. This study is an ancillary of the observational study from the CIRVIR cohort in which more than 1200 patients with compensated HCV cirrhosis are currently included. participating centers : 26
Dendritic cells (DC) play a central role in the activation of T-cell responses and have shown to be very immunogenic in preclinical in vivo and in vitro assays. The aims of this study is to assess the efficacy of therapeutic vaccination pilot clinical trial in Genotype 1 HCV patients using autologous DC transduced with a recombinant adenovirus encoding NS3
The primary objective of this study is to assess changes in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected subjects given daily doses of JKB-122 for 3 months who have been nonresponsive to, intolerable to, or relapsed from prior interferon-based therapies (pegylated or standard) either alone or in combination with ribavirin or other anti-HCV therapies including direct-acting anti-viral agents.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether neurocognitive impairments experienced by patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection can be reversed by treating HCV, with a new combination of direct acting antiviral drugs (daclatasvir (DCV), asunaprevir (ASV) and beclabuvir (BCV)). The study will assess the effect of HCV on the central nervous system (CNS) by assessing neurocognitive function and brain injury prior to treatment, and comparing it to the end of treatment, and 4, 12 and 24 weeks after treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Ombitasvir (OBV)/paritaprevir (PTV)/ritonavir (r) with sofosbuvir (SOF) with or without ribavirin (RBV) in adults with Genotype 2 Chronic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection or Genotype 3 HCV infection with or without Cirrhosis.
The primary objective of this registry study is to assess the durability of sustained virologic response (SVR) and clinical progression or regression of liver disease including the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma following SVR in participants with cirrhosis after treatment with a sofosbuvir-based regimen for HCV infection.
Rationale: Chronic HCV infection is characterised by a weak HCV specific CD8+ T cell response, due to continuous pressure of high viral load. Treatment of chronic HCV patients with ASV and DCV will result in a significant drop in HCV viral load. At present, no information is available on the immunological effects of treatment with ASV and DCV, nor on the early effects of viral load reduction caused by a compound that is thought not to possess direct immunomodulatory effects. This information will be crucial for a better understanding of the mechanisms that may limit the effectiveness of treatment, occurrence of viral rebound or relapses during, at the end of treatment or during the follow up period. Objective: To evaluate in detail the functionality of immune cells in blood in chronic HCV patients before, during and after treatment with ASV and DCV, in an IFN-free regimen. Study design: This is an investigator-initiated single center open label study with one arm of 12 patients. Study population: Adult chronic HCV patients with genotype 1b, who are previous non-responders to the treatment. Intervention (if applicable): All patients will be treated with twice daily a 200 mg oASV and once daily a 60 mg DCV for 24 weeks. Main study parameters/endpoints: 1. Phenotype and function of blood leukocytes during treatment; frequency of HCV-specific T cells, NK cells and monocytes 2. Gene expression levels of leukocyte populations before, during and after treatment 3. Gene expression levels of the type I IFN signaling pathway on whole blood samples 4. Serum cytokines levels using multiplex platforms
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of a 12- or 24-week treatment regimen of simeprevir in combination with daclatasvir, as measured by sustain virologic response 12 (SVR12), in treatment-naive, chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b-infected participants who have advanced fibrosis or compensated cirrhosis (METAVIR F3/F4).
