Filter by:Assessment of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of SCH 900518 in Naive or Treatment-Experienced Subjects Infected With Hepatitis C Virus Genotype 1 (Protocol No. P04695)
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of combination treatment with VX-222 and telaprevir administered for 12 weeks with and without peginterferon-alfa-2a and/or ribavirin. The subjects enrolled in this study are chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 and will not have previously received treatment for their HCV infection. This study will include an Investigational Phase and Extension Phase. These phases will contain a Treatment Period and a Follow-up Period. All subjects will be enrolled in the Investigational Phase of this study. Subjects who fail treatment during the Investigational Phase will have the option to enter the Extension Phase at which point they will be eligible to receive peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin for a total of 48 weeks. Based on an evaluation of on-treatment safety, pharmacokinetic and antiviral data from patients in each arm of the trial, Vertex may elect to enroll up to two additional treatment arms (Treatment Arm E and Treatment Arm F) that will evaluate telaprevir/VX-222-based combination therapy. The components of the treatment regimens of these arms will be selected based on clinical data that emerges from the four initially-studied regimens. If enacted, up to 25 patients are expected to enroll in each additional treatment arm. If Treatment Arm E or Treatment Arm F is discontinued subjects meeting certain criteria will have the option to enter a telaprevir-containing Rollover Phase. Subjects who do not meet the eligibility criteria to enter the Rollover Phase may elect to enter the Extension Phase.
Recurrence of Hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) is universal after orthotopic liver transplantation (LTx) and is associated with allograft failure, death and need for re-transplantation. Currently, there are no effective therapies to prevent HCV recurrence. Nitazoxanide (NTZ), an oral thiazolide anti-infectious agent, was safe, well tolerated and effective in achieving sustained viral response in patients with chronic HCV genotype 4. Its role in the prevention of HCV recurrence after liver transplantation has not been studied. The investigators propose to conduct an open label pilot study examining the role of NTZ in the prevention of HCV re-infection in eight patients undergoing LTx. First time transplant recipients for chronic HCV without history of renal failure or HIV/HBV co-infection, will receive NTZ immediately prior to LTx and for 3 days thereafter. The primary endpoint is the number of patients who remain HCV-RNA-negative at day 7 after LTx. If at least one patient remains negative, the study will be determined to be positive. Additionally, the investigators will examine the viral kinetics of HCV, tolerability and safety of NTZ.
This study assessed the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of multiple oral doses of ABT-450/ritonavir (r), ABT-333 (also known as dasabuvir), or ABT-072 in hepatitis C virus (HCV), genotype 1-infected, treatment-naïve adults.
This a phase 2, randomized, open-label trial of GS-9256 plus GS-9190, two oral anti HCV drugs, for 28 days with and without ribavirin (RIBA) and with pegylated interferon (PEG)/RIBA in adults with chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV). In Part A, approximately thirty (30) subjects 18-70 years of age who meet study entry criteria will be randomized (in other words, selected at random, like flipping a coin) to one of the two treatment groups (GS-9256 plus GS-9190 or GS-9256 plus GS-9190 plus RIBA). In Part B, an additional fifteen (15) subjects will receive 75 mg GS-9256 BID plus 40 mg GS-9190 BID in combination with PEG/RIBA. After the 28-day treatment period, subjects will receive PEG/RIBA as standard of care (SOC). Following randomization, subjects will return for a Baseline (Day 1) visit, at which time study medication will be dispensed and subjects will enter a 28 day treatment phase. During the treatment phase, subjects will receive oral study drugs twice daily for 28 days and PEG once weekly for Part B. Subjects then receive PEG/RIBA as local SOC starting on Day 28 (not provided as part of the study). Following completion of the 28-day treatment phase, subjects will be followed for approximately 72 weeks.
This observational study will assess predictors of early on-treatment and sustained virological response in treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C initiated on treatment with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and ribavirin. Data will be collected during the treatment period (24 or 48 weeks) and 12 and 24 weeks after the end of treatment. Target sample size is <5000.
HCV001 is a Phase I study to ascertain the safety and immunogenicity of a novel vaccine against Hepatitis C virus (HCV). The vaccine is based on the sequential delivery, by intramuscular route, of two different adenoviral vectors, of human and chimpanzee origin respectively, bearing the same genetic information for HCV antigens (NS region). The two recombinant vectors, called Ad6NSmut and AdCh3NSmut, are weakened and unable to multiply within the body; they are designed to induce an immune response against HCV proteins. Although Ad6NSmut and AdCh3NSmut have never been given to humans before this trial, promising results have been obtained in non-human studies. The HCV001 study is designed to explore different prime-boost regimes concerning dose, order and interval of administration of Ad6NSmut and AdCh3NSmut.
This observational study will assess predictors of early on-treatment and sustained virological response in treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C initiated on treatment with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) or peginterferon alfa-2b and ribavirin. Data will be collected during the treatment period (24 or 48 weeks) and 12 and 24 weeks after the end of treatment. Target sample size is <2000.
