Filter by:Study is a non-interventional, prospective, multicenter post marketing surveillance study to determine the safety of daclatasvir based therapy
The purpose of this study is to evaluate daclatasvir in combination with sofosbuvir given to children with chronic hepatitis C infection
HCV infection is treated with oral drugs, termed as 'direct-acting anti-viral agents' (DAAs). In India, four DAAs are available (sofosbuvir [SOF], daclatasvir [DCV], ledipasvir [LDV] and velpatasvir [VEL]). Globally, DAA based regimens have obtained excellent rates of cure. Cure of HCV infection is defined as undetectable HCV RNA 12 weeks after stopping drugs, also referred to as sustained virological response at week 12 (SVR12). Using these DAA based treatment regimens, a small number (up to 5%) of people fail to achieve SVR12 and HCV RNA reappear after a few weeks of stopping the drugs (virological relapse). Data on management of virological relapse are extremely limited, especially in genotype 3, and no guidelines exist regarding re-treatment options for such group. Hence, we plan to re-treat such people using what appear to be the best combination treatment in each situation and to review our experience over time. Participants with chronic HCV infection who relapsed following standard DAA-based treatment regimen will be invited to participate. We propose to re-treat them with the anti-HCV drug combination which appears to be the most suited to his/her clinical profile, based on the current empiric knowledge - the choice of drugs will be based on HCV genotype, the previous treatment regimen and the presence/absence of liver cirrhosis, etc. During anti-HCV treatment, participants will be given expected standard of care and HCV RNA will be tested at 4-week intervals starting from week 4 and till RNA becomes undetectable, and then at the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the treatment was stopped - as is the usual practice during such treatment. Relevant clinical, laboratory and treatment details will be recorded in a pre-defined data collection form. Treatment outcome will be categorized as success (SVR12), treatment failure (any detectable HCV RNA at the end of 24 weeks treatment duration) or relapse (HCV RNA negative at the end of treatment, but positive at 12 weeks after stopping treatment). If possible, a 5-ml blood specimen will be collected before starting re-treatment from all participants; in addition, another similar specimen will be collected following the treatment in those in whom the re-treatment is unsuccessful. These will be stored and may be used in future for virological studies to look for drug-resistance variations.
This study seeks to implement and evaluate a data-driven case navigation system for hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment among persons who are either actively injecting drugs or who are receiving opioid substitution therapy (OST). The study will use data from a previously developed patient registry system to identify patients for study recruitment, and use monthly updates of registry data to organize and direct patient navigation services for those individuals assigned to the treatment group. Patients assigned to the control group will also be eligible to receive HCV treatment, but will otherwise receive usual care. This study has a parallel, randomized unblinded, case/control design in which eligible patients are assigned at baseline to either a registry-directed patient navigation system (case) or to usual care (control), characterized in terms of demographic and sub-population variables, and then compared after 12 months on two categories of outcomes; (1) attainment of care cascade milestones; and (2) treatment initiation, adherence, and virologic response. The study is designed and powered to answer two primary hypotheses (H1 & H2): - H1: As compared to those randomized to usual care (control), those randomized to the registry directed patient navigation arm (case) will be more likely to complete all pretreatment HCV care milestones as defined by a higher proportion completing all four pre-treatment care cascade outcomes. - H2: As compared to the control group, a significantly higher proportion of those randomized to the case group will achieve a sustained viral response.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-part study will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and antiviral activity (Part 3 only) of orally administered AL-611 in healthy volunteers (HV; Parts 1-2) and subjects with CHC (Part 3). Part 1: HV will receive 1 of 5 single ascending doses (SAD) of AL-611 Part 2: Eight HV from Cohort 3 in Part 1 are planned to receive a second single dose of AL-611 or placebo (as per their randomized assignment in Part 1) in a fed state after a washout period Part 3: Subjects with CHC infection will receive 1 of 3 planned multiple ascending doses (MAD)
An evaluation of the impact of Elbasvir and Grazoprevir (EBR/GZR) HCV therapy on the heart risk and bone health of HCV mono-infected and HIV/HCV co-infected patients.
This is a proof of concept, single center study for the donation of HCV-positive hearts to HCV negative recipient patients, with preemptive, interventional treatment with 12 weeks of commercially available DAA therapy to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.
This is a single center study for the donation of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-positive livers to HCV negative recipient patients, with preemptive, interventional treatment to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether treatment with Epclusa (sofosbuvir/velpatasvir) after lung transplantation in individuals with chronic hepatitis C infection is feasible, safe and effective at curing HCV.
The DxN Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Assay is an in vitro diagnostic assay intended as an aid in the management of of HCV-infected individuals undergoing antiviral therapy. The purpose of the study is to establish the clinical performance of the DxN HCV Assay for plasma samples in the intended use population.
