Filter by:Menopause represents a critical period in a woman's life as the hormonal changes and the failing ovarian function not only determine relevant modifications in the reproductive function but also in many other conditions and organs that apparently are scarcely linked with hormones. The PI's centre has among its main goals the treatment of chronic liver disease; in the last years, a increasing interest in gender-related issues has grown. Goal of this study is to verify the impact of menopause on response to antiviral therapy for CHC and in determining more severe fibrosis in comparison with age-matched men. To achieve this goal a database of all the PEG IFN/Ribavirin patients treated in the GI Unit of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in the last 7 years will be set up. Demographic, clinical and biochemical data as well data regarding the reproductive history, time, type, length of estrogen deprivation and of hormone-replacement therapy will be collected.
the aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of BI 201335 given for 12 or 24 weeks in combination with PegIFN/RBV given for 24-48 weeks, according to re-randomisation of Early Treatment Success (ETS) patients at 24 weeks to stop PegIFN/RBV or continue PegIFN/RBV until week 48. If no ETS, then PegIFN/RB for 48 weeks, in HCV treatment-naive or relapsers patients coinfected with HIV
In this study, participants on methadone or buprenorphine/naloxone maintenance therapy will be given boceprevir. Blood samples will be taken at specified intervals to find out whether boceprevir affects the pharmacokinetics of methadone, buprenorphine, or naloxone.
This observational study will evaluate predictors of early on-treatment response and sustained virological response in patients with chronic hepatitis C receiving Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and ribavirin. Data will be collected from patients on treatment (24 or 48 weeks) and 24 weeks after the end of treatment.
This study will assess the efficacy of boceprevir (BOC) in combination with PegIntron (pegylated interferon alfa-2b) (PEG) and ribavirin (RBV) in response guided therapy compared to the efficacy of standard-of-care therapy alone in adult subjects with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1 who failed prior treatment with pegylated interferon and RBV in the Asia Pacific population. The primary hypothesis is that the proportion of participants achieving sustained virologic response in the experimental therapy regimen (BOC/PEG+RBV) is superior to that in the control arm (Placebo/PEG+RBV), in the Full Analysis Set (FAS) population.
This study will compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of grazoprevir (MK-5172) when administered to participants with mild, moderate or severe hepatic insufficiency (assessed by the criteria of the Child-Pugh's scale) with the PK of grazoprevir when administered to healthy participants.
The purpose of this study is to compare the rates of sustained virologic response in each cohort (Black-African Americans, Latinos) in this study to historical rate.
The purpose of this study is to assess the steady-state pharmacokinetics of TMC435 in participants with severe renal impairment and to compare these with the TMC435 pharmacokinetics in matched participants with normal renal function. We will also study the short-term safety and tolerability of TMC435, when administered in participants with severe renal impairment and in participants with normal renal function. Steady-state is a term that means that the drug has been given long enough so that the plasma concentrations will remain the same with each subsequent dose. TMC435 is being investigated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Pharmacokinetics (PK) means how the drug is absorbed into the bloodstream, distributed in the body, and eliminated from the body.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and antiviral activity of IDX184 in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavirin in treatment-naïve subjects with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
