Filter by:The relevance of this research to public health is to make it possible to test for hepatitis C and syphilis at point of care so that people will receive their results immediately instead of requiring people to wait for at least a week to get their test results. This research will make rapid tests for HIV available that can detect HIV infection earlier and are more accurate than current tests available in the United States.
A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple Dose Ranging Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Antiviral Activity of GS-6620 in Treatment Naïve Subjects with Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and 4-week rapid virologic response (RVR) of 3 different doses of ABT-267 (also known as ombitasvir) in combination with pegylated interferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV) compared with pegIFN/RBV alone (ABT-267 placebo) in treatment naïve, hepatitis C virus (HCV), genotype 1-infected participants.
This is an extension of ongoing study SCI-SCV-HCV-P2-001 in which subjects will be invited to participate in this extension study if they complete treatment in study SCI-SCV-HCV-P2-001 and are eligible for retreatment with peg-IFN and RBV.
The purpose of this study is to determine if combination therapy with Pegylated Interferon Lambda (BMS-914143) plus Ribavirin (RBV) with a single direct antiviral agent (BMS-790052 or BMS-650032) for 24 weeks is effective and safe for treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC) compared to current standard therapy with Pegylated Interferon Alpha-2a plus RBV for 48 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to compare absorption of TMC435 formulated as 2 different types of capsules. After that, the absorption of one chosen TMC435 capsule will be compared when taken under fasting conditions or together with a standard or a high-fat meal. This will be done in healthy volunteers.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antiviral activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics of ABT-450 with ritonavir (ABT-450/r) dosed in combination with ABT-333 (also known as dasabuvir) and ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naïve and non responder participants with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different treatment regimens with BI 201335, both in combination with PegIFN/RBV) as compared to standard of care (SOC) with PegIFN/RBV alone.
Liver-related death is the leading cause of mortality in HIV-infected individuals with CD4+ cell counts over 200, and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is the greatest risk for liver-related mortality in HIV-positive patients. Compared to HCV monoinfected individuals, patients with HIV and HCV coinfection experience accelerated progression of liver fibrosis, which can lead to higher incidence of cirrhosis, end stage liver disease (ESLD), and death. Changes in CD8+ T-cell activation, inflammatory cytokines, and serum markers of tissue injury may offer an immunologic platform to determine factors associated with progressive liver fibrosis in coinfected patients. In this cross-sectional study we will evaluate whether HIV and HCV coinfection patients with well-controlled HIV infection who have an undetectable viral load exhibit abnormal levels of inflammation and immune activation, potentially contributing to advanced liver fibrosis. Comparative groups include coinfected patients successfully treated for hepatitis C, or who have absence of hepatitis C viremia through spontaneous clearance, hepatitis C monoinfected patients, and HIV-positive patients with well-controlled HIV infection without hepatitis C. Liver fibrosis will be measured by non-invasive methods. The primary objectives of this study are: 1. To determine if there are differences in markers of inflammation and immune activation in subsets of patients with HIV, hepatitis C, and HIV and hepatitis C coinfection. 2. To assess the stage of liver fibrosis using non-invasive methods in subsets of patients with hepatitis C and HIV and hepatitis C coinfection and compare the degree of liver fibrosis with levels of inflammation and immune activation.
The study is aimed at assessing the safety of AdCh3NSmut and the new candidate vaccine MVA-NSmut when administered sequentially, or alone, to healthy volunteers and patients with hepatitis C virus infection The study also aims at assessing the cellular immune response generated by AdCh3NSmut and MVA-NSmut administered as mentioned above.
