Filter by:Phase 1 of this study compared the effectiveness of 3 approved DAA (direct-acting antiviral) HCV treatment regimens to learn whether they worked equally well under real-world conditions. Phase 2 of this study began early 2017 with removal of 1 DAA regimen, limiting randomization to just 2 FDA approved DAA regimens. Patients receiving HCV therapy in community and academic clinics were offered the opportunity to consent to be randomly assigned to one of three (phase 1) or one of two (phase 2) regimens and observed for outcomes. Once randomized, all medical care, laboratory testing, and any disease or side effect management were assumed by usual care conditions, and patient-reported outcomes were collected outside clinic in keeping with pragmatic design principles.
Observational study. All HIV-infected patients who have been diagnosed of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), following the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) criteria, in the participant centers are included. Epidemiological, clinical and laboratory data are collected. The clinical and epidemiological characteristics of HCC cases will be analyzed. The efficacy and outcomes after modalities of HCC therapy will be assessed. Mortality and its predictors will be also assessed. In those cases infected by hepatitis C virus (HCV), the impact of HCV therapy on outcomes will be analysed.
The investigators aim at investigating the efficacy of grazoprevir/elbasvir ±ribavirin in HIV-positive MSM participating in the SHCS in a broader setting of coinfected MSM. The study pursues a comprehensive approach of a treat, counsel and cure strategy exploring the impact of such a strategy in a representative HIV/HCV-coinfected MSM population. This study is a nested project of the Swiss HIV Cohort Study entitled "The Swiss HCVree Trial".
This study will collect and evaluate information on the safety and efficacy of Sovaldi-based regimens in routine clinical practice in Mexico. The primary objective of this study is to assess the rates of serious adverse events/reactions (SAEs/SADRs) and adverse events/reactions (AEs/ADRs) in adult participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection treated with Sovaldi in routine clinical practice.
Chronic viral hepatitis often leads to liver scarring - cirrhosis. If the virus is eradicated from the liver, the liver scarring and liver function often recovers. In some patients the damage is too severe and recovery does not take place. It is not yet known which patients have liver disease that is too advanced to benefit from therapy nor is it known how fast the recovery occurs. Non-intrusive dynamic liver testing (DLT) may allow us to predict the functionality of the liver post treatment and may guide us in treatment choices - for example patients who are predicted not to recover may be prioritised for transplantation. Indocyanine green (ICG) is a dye solely excreted by the liver into bile and used to measure its dynamic function. Transient elastography is similar to ultrasound and measures the degree of fibrosis within the liver. The investigators hypothesise that the use of non-intrusive dynamic liver testing pre-treatment, will allow us to delineate patients before therapy who will have functional liver recovery following viral eradication. The investigators hypothesise that monitoring changes in liver fibrosis and liver function in patients with historical viral clearance will allow an assessment of the likely speed of recovery of liver fibrosis and function - for example if all patients 5 years after treatment for viral hepatitis induced cirrhosis have 'normal' fibrosis and liver function scores the investigators will be able to conclude that recovery is complete within 5 years. The investigators will perform a study pre and post-treatment assessing liver function using non-intrusive dynamic liver testing in addition to currently-used 'liver function' scoring systems, in a multivariate analysis, to determine whether or not the investigators can identify patients who are will have functional liver recovery post therapy.
In this study, individuals without hepatitis C infection who are on the kidney transplant waitlist will receive a kidney from a deceased donor with hepatitis C infection and will be treated for hepatitis C at the same time. Treatment will include Grazoprevir (GZR) 100 mg/Elbasvir (EBR) 50 mg administered on-call to the operating room for the renal transplant procedure and continued for 12 weeks post-renal transplant.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir /velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) who have received a liver transplant.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) and SOF/VEL FDC and ribavirin (RBV) for 12 weeks in participants with chronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and compensated cirrhosis.
The purpose of the study is to describe: 1) the clinical profile, past and current management of participants with hepatitis C in Brazil reference centers; 2) the current situation about demographics characteristics, liver disease progression and clinical outcomes in Brazilian Hepatitis C virus (HCV) participants naive, in treatment and previously exposed to antiviral treatment without sustained virological response (SVR).
This is a prospective, cohort study in Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University, Egypt. From June to December, 2016, investigators will follow up patients with chronic Hepatitis C virus genotype 4 receiving daclatasvir-sofosbuvir treatment regimen within the national program of Egyptian ministry of health and population. The primary outcomes are safety of the treatment and the sustained virologic response 12 weeks after discontinuation of therapy. For the secondary outcomes, investigators will measure the change in health related quality of life and investigate the genetic sequence of viral RNA of resistant patients.
