Filter by:This is an open label, single-arm, multi-centre extension study for Korean patients with chronic hepatitis B and compensated liver disease who have completed one-year adefovir dipivoxil treatment in ADF103814. The objective is to assess clinical efficacy and safety of long term (up to 3 years) adefovir dipivoxil 10mg therapy.
This is a phase 3, randomized, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of albumin interferon alfa 2b (alb-IFN)in combination with ribavirin compared with peginterferon alfa-2a (PEGASYS or PEG-IFNa2a) in combination with ribavirin in subjects with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1 who are IFNa treatment naive.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level on intrahepatic recurrence in locally treatable hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) related with HBV.
This study is being conducted to see if the investigational medication, valopicitabine, is safe to use in combination with ribavirin, a drug approved by the FDA for treating hepatitis C infection.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if the study drug entecavir will prevent the recurrence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in participants who receive an orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) due to HBV infection.
This 4-arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of PEGASYS induction and maintenance dosing, versus standard fixed dosing in combination with Copegus, and the efficacy and safety of higher dose versus standard dose Copegus in combination with PEGASYS. Patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1 infection of high viral titer, and baseline body weight ≥85 kg, will be randomized to one of 4 groups, to receive one of the following: a) PEGASYS 180 µg subcutaneously (sc) weekly plus Copegus 1200 mg orally (po) daily; b) PEGASYS 180 µg sc weekly plus Copegus 1400-1600 mg po daily; c)PEGASYS 360 µg sc weekly (induction) followed by 180 µg sc weekly (maintenance) plus Copegus 1200 mg po daily; or d) PEGASYS 360 µg sc weekly (induction) followed by 180 µg sc weekly (maintenance) plus Copegus 1400-1600 mg po daily. Following 48 weeks treatment, there will be a 24-week period of treatment-free follow-up. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
Entecavir, 0.5 mg daily, will have clinical efficacy (assessed as an undetectable hepatitis B DNA, <300 copies/mL, by Roche Comprehensive Bio-Analytical System Amplicor polymerase chain reaction assay) that is comparable (noninferior) and potentially superior to lamivudine, 100 mg once daily, in adults with hepatitis B e antigen-negative chronic hepatitis B virus infection.
The purpose of this study is to prospectively assess the long-term outcomes (benefits and risks) associated with entecavir (ETV) therapy as compared to other antivirals approved for the treatment of chronic HBV infection. For the China substudy, patients randomized to entecavir will have safety and efficacy assessments performed during the first year of the study.
This 4 arm study will compare the safety and tolerability of HCV polymerase inhibitor pro-drug in combination with PEGASYS +/- COPEGUS with the standard of care therapy of PEGASYS + COPEGUS, in treatment-naive patients with CHC, genotype 1. Patients will be randomized to receive 1500mg or 3000mg po bid of HCV polymerase inhibitor pro-drug + PEGASYS, 1500mg of HCV polymerase inhibitor pro-drug + PEGASYS + COPEGUS or PEGASYS + COPEGUS for 4 weeks. All patients who receive at least one dose of study medication will receive open label PEGASYS + Copegus for an additional 44 weeks after the 4 week experimental period. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
Compare the effectiveness of telaprevir (VX-950) in combination with Pegylated Interferon Alfa 2a (Peg-IFN-alfa-2a) with and without Ribavirin (RBV) in reducing plasma hepatitis C virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) levels
