Approximately one half of all Americans living with Hepatitis C virus (HCV) are drug users, yet they are the least likely to receive HCV treatment. Drug users are presumed non-adherent and therefore denied potentially life-saving therapy. This assumption can only be confirmed or dispelled through prospective pharmacologic and adherence studies in this population. Such studies would be greatly enhanced by an objective, quantitative measure of adherence which does not currently exist in the HCV field. Through the work proposed in this application, sixty HIV/HCV co-infected drug users will be treated with direct acting antiviral agents (DAA) and randomized to receive directly observed DAA therapy (DOT) vs. no directly observed therapy (no-DOT). Patients randomized to no-DOT will have wirelessly observed therapy (WOT) which involves use of a portable medication dispenser that sends a signal to a server with the date and time when the dispenser is opened. In Aim 1, DAA concentrations will be compared in those randomized to DOT vs. no-DOT. DAA pharmacokinetics will also be defined accounting for clinical factors like degree of hepatic impairment and use of concomitant recreational and antiretroviral drugs. The goal is to quantify adherence in this population and the effect of variable adherence on drug concentrations. In Aim 2, DAA concentrations (plasma, cellular, hair) will be linked with adherence patterns identified using WOT and DOT. The goal is to identify a drug concentration biomarker that predicts adherence in this population. In Aim 3, the relationship between DAA adherence (as measured by WOT and DOT and drug concentrations) and rate of cure will be established. The goal is to define the degree of adherence needed for HCV cure.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AL-335 in combination with odalasvir (ODV) with or without simeprevir (SMV) in participants with genotype (GT)1 or GT2 or GT3 chronic hepatitis C (CHC) infection.
This study is aimed at assessing the safety of candidate Hepatitis C (Hep C) vaccines AdCh3NSmut1 and MVA-NSmut when administered to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) seropositive individuals. This study also aims to assess the cellular immune response generated by these vaccines when administered as mentioned above.
This study aims to provide the evidence that 150mg of cobicistat will have the same effect on the pharmacokinetics of daclatasvir 30mg QD as 100mg of ritonavir, when given together with atazanavir 300mg.
This study aims to provide clinical information on a potential drug-drug interaction between daclatasvir and metformin.
This use-results post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study for Sovaldi® tablets (sofosbuvir, SOF) administered in combination with Rebetol® capsules (ribavirin, REB) will evaluate the safety and efficacy of SOF administered in combination with ribavirin under real world use in Japan. Among adult patients with chronic genotype 2 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and treated with SOF+ribavirin in routine clinical use, the primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) under real world settings.
The purpose of this open-label, non-randomized, single-arm, multicentre observational study is to investigate the influence of the cumulative dose (total administered dose/ planned dose) of ribavirin on the sustained virologic response (SVR) in participants who have been receiving combination therapy with pegylated interferon alfa-2a (Pegasys) and ribavirin (Copegus).
In this Slovenian, multi-center, observational study, the effectiveness of standard of care Peginterferon alfa-2a + ribavirin treatment in adult patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is examined. Patients were treated for 24- or 48-weeks, as prescribed by the treating physician, followed by a 24-week follow-up period.
This is a prospective study to determine the incidence, morbidity, mortality and predisposing factors for the reactivation of hepatitis B virus replication during direct anti-HCV treatment of HCV/HBV co-infection patients.
