Filter by:Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study with 3 dose levels of IMO-2125 in combination with standard weight based ribavirin (investigational treatment arm) or placebo in combination with ribavirin (RBV). Each cohort of 15 patients will be randomized 4:1 to receive the investigational treatment arm (12 patients) or placebo and RBV arm (3 patients).
The primary objective for this study is to determine if the addition of filibuvir to a standard regimen of peginterferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV) significantly increases the proportion of subjects who achieve a sustained viral response (SVR) compared to peginterferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV) therapy alone.
To compare the antiviral efficacy and safety of a 12-week with a 24-week treatment of BI 201335 at a dose of 120 mg once daily, with a 24-week background of pegylated interferon-alpha 2a (PegIFN) plus ribavirin (RBV), in treatment-naïve patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of telaprevir, peginterferon alfa-2a, and ribavirin is safe and effective in treating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in subjects who are infected with both HCV and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
The objective of the present study is to evaluate the antioxidant status in the blood of HCV patients treated with pegylated interferon (2a 1.5 ug/kg; 2b 180 ug) combined with ribavirin (1000 to 1250 mg) before and after supplementation of vitamins E, C and the mineral zinc (800 mg,500 mg and 40 mg; respectively) during six months.
This is a study designed to identify a dose of NIM811 that has a good safety profile, is well tolerated when co-administered with SOC, and provides a clinically meaningful effect in viral load reduction compared to SOC alone. This information will be used to support doses selected for future studies.
To assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the ABT-072 tablet formulation administered as a single dose and then administered as multiple doses for 7 days. The effect of food on the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the ABT-072 tablet will also be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of different regimens of TMC435 with standard treatment compared to standard treatment alone in participants with chronic, genotype 1, hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who has failed previous treatment with pegylated interferon (Peg-INF-alfa-2a) and ribavirin (RBV).
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, a leading cause of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver transplantation, affects approximately 170 million individuals worldwide. Combination of peginterferon plus ribavirin therapy has become the current standard of care for chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients, with an overall sustained virologic response (SVR) rate of 54-63% and more favorable response rates in patients with genotype 2/3 infection than those with genotype 1/4 infection. Therefore, accurate pre-treatment HCV genotype evaluation is of paramount importance to facilitate individualized therapy in the era of response guide therapy and specific-targeted antiviral therapy for HCV (STAT-C). Currently, direct HCV genetic sequencing for both the 5' untranslated terminal region (5'UTR) and non-structural 5B (NS5B) regions with subsequent phylogenetic tree analysis is considered the gold standard for determining HCV genotype and subtype. However, it is time-consuming and need special laboratory settings. Several commercial available reverse hybridization with type-specific probing assay (Inno-LiPA II) or simplified direct sequencing of the 5'UTR region were used to replace the two region sequencing method (Trugene HCV 5' NC genotyping kit). Nonetheless, data on the overall diagnostic accuracy varied. The Abbott RealTime HCV Genotype II is an in vitro reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for determining the genotype(s) of HCV in plasma and serum from HCV-infected individuals. Based on genetic similarity, HCV has been classified into six major genotypes (1-6) and numerous subtypes. HCV genotype is predictive of the response of HCV-infected patients to peginterferon plus ribavirin combination therapy. The Abbott RealTime HCV Genotype II assay uses the Abbott m2000sp instrument for processing samples and the Abbott m2000rt instrument for amplification and detection. Furthermore, the Abbott m2000sp provides automated sample transfer and reaction assembly of the assay reagents in the Abbott 96-Well Optical Reaction Plate. The investigators aimed to evaluate the overall diagnostic accuracy of the currently available commercial HCV genotype kits (Abbott RealTime HCV Genotype II) by using 5'UTR and NS5A gene amplification and direct sequencing as the gold standard.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of SPC3649 given in multiple doses to healthy volunteers.
