Filter by:This is a study of grazoprevir (MK-5172) + elbasvir (MK-8742) and sofosbuvir (SOF) in treatment-naive participants with chronic hepatitis C (HCV) genotype (GT) 1 or GT3. The objective is to determine the proportion of participants achieving sustained virologic response 12 weeks after ending study treatment (SVR12).
This study will examine the safety, tolerability, and antiviral efficacy of sofosbuvir (SOF)+ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive and treatment-experienced United States Veterans with compensated cirrhosis and genotype 2 HCV infection.
Aim of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 24 weeks of oral Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir fixed-dose combination (FDC) in subjects with HCV genotype 1 infection and HIV co-infection, who have previously failed a NS3/4A protease inhibitor plus Pegylated interferon /ribavirin regimen or stopped prematurely their treatment for intolerance.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the proportion of treatment-naive non-cirrhotic subjects with Genotype (GT)-1b treated with Daclatasvir (DCV)/Asunaprevir (ASV)/BMS-791325 who achieve Sustained Virologic response (SVR12), defined as Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA < LOQ target detected or target not detected (LOQ TD/TND) at follow-up Week 12, is significantly higher than SVR12 of current Standard of Care (SOC).
The Birth-Cohort Evaluation to Advance Screening and Testing for Hepatitis C (BEST-C) compares the effectiveness of the birth cohort HCV screening strategy with the current risk-based screening approach to detect previous unidentified persons with viral hepatitis C who receive health care in primary systems. The study involved three clinical sites, The University of Alabama, Birmingham; The Henry Ford Health System; and the Mount Sinai Medical Center, each of which developed an independent intervention to experimentally compare the number of positive Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) diagnoses found using the birth-cohort screening approach with that found using traditional risk-based screening, or standard of care strategies. Birth cohort testing is defined as the systematic recommendation of HCV antibody testing to any persons born during the years of 1945 to 1965 who do not have clinically documented evidence of a prior antibody test without regards to the patient's stated risk of exposure to the virus.
This study seeks to implement a sexual health promotion intervention for male sex workers in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The study hypothesis is that this intervention will increase testing, treatment and vaccination for sexually transmitted infections, including intentions of participants to engage in these services beyond the conclusion of the intervention. At the community level, the study hypothesis is that male sex workers will be more aware of sexual health care and more likely to access these services in the future.
This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for participants with genotypes 1 and 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) for participants with genotypes 2 and 3 HCV infection. Participants with an inherited bleeding disorder and chronic HCV infection (either monoinfected or HIV-1/HCV coinfected) will be enrolled.
Background: - Hepatitis C is a liver disease caused by the hepatitis C virus. It is the most common cause of serious liver disease in the United States. Many people have few if any symptoms. It can lead to cirrhosis, which can cause liver failure and cancer. Researchers want to study how a medicine called chlorcyclizine works in patients with hepatitis C. They want to see if it can be used to treat hepatitis C alone or when used with the standard hepatitis C treatment drug ribavirin. Objectives: - To see if chlorcyclizine can be used to treat hepatitis C alone or in combination with the drug ribavirin. Eligibility: - Adults with chronic hepatitis C who either have never been treated for it or have relapsed after prior treatment. Design: - Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, blood and urine tests, and a questionnaire. They will also have an ultrasound of their abdomen and electrocardiogram. Some of these tests will be repeated throughout the study. - Participants will spend 3 days as an inpatient to be monitored while starting study drug. They will be assigned randomly to a group and will begin taking the study drug. Blood will be taken frequently. - Group I will take the study drug twice a day for 28 days. - Group II will take the study drug twice a day and ribavirin twice a day for 28 days. - Participants will visit the clinic every 7 days for 28 days. - After participants stop taking the study drug, they will have 5 follow-up visits over 3 months.
This proof of concept study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of TD-6450 in treatment naïve subjects with GT-1, GT-2 or GT-3 chronic HCV.
The purpose of the study are the following: 1) Pilot test and conduct baseline and 3 month follow up assessments to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of the DVD-based HIV/HCV intervention by randomly assigning 210 Latino corrections-involved, outpatient abuse treatment clients to either the experimental intervention or to a wait list control group; and 2) to evaluate both participant and interventionist acceptability of this novel DVD-based intervention. They study hypothesis are the following: 1. participants in the intervention condition will report greater reductions in sexual risk behaviors (e.g., unprotected sexual contact) from baseline to 3 month follow-up compared to the control group; 2. participants will report greater reductions in drug risk behaviors (e.g., sharing injection equipment, drug use during sex) from baseline to 3 month follow-up compared to the control group; 3. participants who report more HIV prevention information, motivation, and behavioral skills will report fewer sexual risk behaviors.
