Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess anti-viral activity (inhibition of viral growth) of TMC435350 in genotype 2,3,4,5 and 6 hepatitis C virus infected participants who have never received treatment for their hepatitis C infection.
To assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of multiple oral doses of PF-04878691.
This is a proof-of-concept study which will provide data about the safety and antiviral activity of several doses of the investigational drug IDX184 given for 3 days in treatment-naive HCV genotype 1-infected subjects so that optimal doses can be chosen for testing in later studies.
This 7 cohort study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination treatment with an HCV nucleoside polymerase inhibitor(RO5024048)and an HCV protease inhibitor(RO5190591/ITMN-191/danoprevir) in patients with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1.Cohorts A,B,C,D and G will be treatment-naive patients, cohort E will be treatment-experienced excluding null responders, and cohort F will be null responders. Cohorts A and B will evaluate doses of 500mg po bid RO5024048 and 100mg po q8h RO5190591, alone or in combination, for up to 7 or 14 days. Cohort C will evaluate combination treatment with either 1000mg po bid RO5024048 and 100mg q8h RO5190591 or 500mg po bid RO5024048 and 200mg q8h RO5190591 for 14 days. Cohort D will evaluate 1000mg po bid RO5024048 and 200mg q8h RO5190591 for 14 days.Cohort E will evaluate 1000mg RO5024048/600mg RO5190591 po twice daily for 14 days, and Cohorts F and G will evaluate 1000mg RO5024048/900mg RO5190591 po twice daily for 14 days. Cohorts will be tested sequentially or in parallel, if supported by appropriate safety and pharmacokinetic data.Following the last dose of study medication patients have the option of continuing treatment with Standard of care therapies. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
This 3-arm study assessed the safety and efficacy of combination treatment with peginterferon alfa-2a + ribavirin in participants with chronic hepatitis C. Three groups of participants were studied; 1) those with elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) levels, 2) those with normal ALT levels, and 3) those with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection. Participants with genotype 1, 4, 5 or 6 received peginterferon alfa-2a 180 micrograms (mcg) subcutaneous (SC) once weekly (qw) + ribavirin 1000-1200 milligrams (mg) orally (PO) daily (dependent on body weight) for 48 weeks. Those with genotype 2 or 3 received peginterferon alfa-2a 180 mcg SC qw + ribavirin 800 mg PO daily for 24 weeks, and all participants with HIV co-infection received peginterferon alfa-2a 180 mcg SC qw + ribavirin 800 mg PO daily for 48 weeks.
This single arm study will provide treatment or re-treatment with PEGASYS as monotherapy or in combination with ribavirin (Copegus), to patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) who have participated in a previous Roche or Roche partner protocol where access to treatment or re-treatment was promised or deemed appropriate following completion of the original protocol ('donor' protocol). Patients who qualify for treatment or re-treatment will begin PEGASYS monotherapy, at a maximum dose of 180 µg weekly, or combination therapy with Copegus, 800-1200 mg daily, as continuation of treatment after the wash-out period defined in their donor protocol. PEGASYS treatment is not to exceed the approved treatment duration of 48 weeks in genotype G1 with a treatment-free follow up period of 24 weeks.
SCH 900518 is a potent oral inhibitor of HCV NS3 protease which disrupts hepatitis C virus (HCV) polyprotein processing. SCH 900518, when added to the current standard of care (SOC), peginterferon-alfa plus ribavirin, would likely increase the proportion of patients achieving undetectable HCV-RNA levels and sustained virologic response (SVR). In this study, SCH 900518 would be used in combination with low doses of ritonavir to enhance the levels of SCH 900518 within the body and reduce the number of daily SCH 900518 tablets required. The purpose of this study is to identify the optimal dose and schedule (once or twice a day) of SCH 900518 plus ritonavir in previously untreated patients with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C when given in combination with SOC. The study compares SOC to 6 experimental arms. In the experimental arms, SOC plus SCH 900518 doses of 200, 400 and 600 mg once daily or 100 mg twice daily with ritonavir 100 mg once or twice daily will be explored. The benefits of a 4 week lead-in with PegIntron and ribavirin prior to the addition of SCH 900518 will also be explored.
The main purpose of this study is to determine whether psychological intervention is effective in improving quality of life, mood, and relationships among adults with hepatitis C virus and cirrhosis awaiting liver transplantation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a brief motivational intervention in reducing risky injection practices among injecting drug users (IDUs). The investigators hypothesis is that motivational intervention will be more effective than educational intervention in reducing risky injection practices among IDUs.
This study will investigate safety, antiviral activity, and pharmacokinetics of BI 201335 NA in HCV genotype 1 infected patients treated for 14 days monotherapy followed by BI 201335 NA combination therapy with PegIFN/RBV for an additional 14 days for treatment-naïve patients; or for 28 days as BI 201335 NA combination therapy with PegIFN/RBV for treatment-experienced patients. A secondary objective is to investigate antiviral activity, potential drug-drug interactions and safety of combination therapy of BI 201335 NA and PegIFN/RBV up to 28 days for treatment-naïve patients.
