Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is one of the leading causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. It is a progressive disease that without treatment leads to the development of cirrhosis in approximately 10-20% of patients. With this study the investigators intend to evaluate the efficacy defined as the rate of HCV diagnostic tests performed within a decentralized diagnostic strategy by means of home self-testing compared to the one performed in situ in the population served in Social Insertion Centers (CIS) with alternative prison sentences, in order to study the prevalence and characteristics associated with HCV infection in this population, which is known to be at risk for this disease, and to offer them treatment and cure.
The project will evaluate cost and treatment outcomes of a simplified Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) testing, treatment and care model integrated with HIV testing and treatment among key affected populations in Ukraine.
Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma and end-stage liver disease. Ledipasvir/sofosbuvir is used to treat chronic HCV. The drug name for it is Harvoni. It is a very effective treatment, but it is expensive. Researchers have found a genetic variation that predicts how people will respond to this treatment. They want to learn more about this genetic link. It could help develop better treatments for HCV. Objective: To study if certain inherited genetic differences and other factors affect the different ways patients respond to treatment with Harvoni. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 who are members of the Kaiser Health Plan and have recently been treated for hepatitis C with Harvoni Design: Researchers will review medical records to identify a group of people who could be in the study. Participants will provide a saliva sample at home. They will get instructions and kit to collect it in. Participants will spit into a funnel until it reaches a mark on the funnel. It will be about 1 teaspoon of saliva with no bubbles. They will return the sample in a prepaid mailer. Researchers will do genetic tests on the samples. The participant data will be kept confidential. It will not be given to insurance companies. Participants will not be given any test results. ...
The primary objective of this post-marketing surveillance study is to collect and assess data related to the safety and effectiveness of Harvoni® (ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF)) treatment regimen, per the approved Korea prescribing information for Harvoni, in routine clinical practice in Korea and to report the results to the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS). Participants will be treated as part of routine practice at Korean healthcare centers by accredited physicians.
The objectives of this study are to collect and assess data related to safety and effectiveness of Sovaldi treatment regimens, per the approved prescribing information for Sovaldi, in routine clinical practice and report results to Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS).
The main objective of this research is to evaluate a care pathway adapted to different category populations at risk of being infected with the hepatitis C virus in order to improve both the diagnosis turnaround times and the access to treatment. The aim is to allow a quick and effective access to diagnosis and treatment of HCV by strengthening the city hospital networks, access to early consultations and coordination of medical social actors.
The purpose of the study is to describe: 1) the clinical profile, past and current management of participants with hepatitis C in Brazil reference centers; 2) the current situation about demographics characteristics, liver disease progression and clinical outcomes in Brazilian Hepatitis C virus (HCV) participants naive, in treatment and previously exposed to antiviral treatment without sustained virological response (SVR).
The purpose of this phase 3 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABT-493/ABT-530 in comparison to sofosbuvir plus ribavirin for 12 weeks in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Genotype 2 (GT2) infected participants.
The purpose of this phase 3, multicenter study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABT-493/ABT-530 in Japanese adults with chronic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-infected, HCV direct-acting antiviral agent (DAA) treatment-naïve, and DAA treatment-experienced Japanese adult subjects.
