Filter by:The purpose of the OPDEP pilot study is to assess the feasibility of implementing a pre-operative HIV / HCV / HBV screening proposal for all persons over 18 years of age and refer for surgical intervention under general anesthesia in the Department of Stomatology of the Pitié-salpêtrière hospital. Patients undergoing treatment in Stomatology have particular areas at risk for the infections we are looking for: young patients, precarious situation, drug use, migrants ... The aim is to evaluate the conditions for a generalization of screening in the framework of the preoperative assessment.
Objective: To coordinate active tracing of chronic hepatitis C patients lost to follow-up to inform them about there disease severity and treatment options. Study design: This is a prospective cohort study, which will start as a pilot study in the Radboudumc Population: lost to follow-up chronic hepatitis C patients in the region Nijmegen. This so-called lost population consists of all patients, that in the past have been identified at the Radboudumc but who are currently lost to or have been withdrawn from follow-up. The time-span of interest will be 2000-2015. We estimate that this project will retrace 100 lost patients through this search.
This is an open-label, pilot safety and efficacy trial for adults who are active on the heart, lung, or kidney transplantation lists and are eligible to receive an organ from an increased risk donor who has evidence of active or prior hepatitis C infection (HCV).
As cirrhosis progresses, alteration of hemodynamics develops and decreased portal flow is often observed. Since direct measurement of portal pressure (HVPG) is invasive, non-invasive methods have drawn a lot of attention. MRI is one of the non-invasive methods and it is able to provide multiparametric data in one examination. Herein, we evaluate hepatic fibrosis with different stage using multiparametric MRI with emphasis on portal flow measurement.
The CHB subjects who are cirrhosis, will be randomized to two groups. The subjects who go into group A will be treated by nucleotide analogue (NA) combination with peginterferon alfa-2a,180μg/week for 48 weeks. The subjects who go into group B will be treated by nucleotide analogue (NA) only for 48 weeks.

Infection and cancer is a major cause of death and morbidity, and may be preventable through vaccination. It is not fully understood at the molecular level why some people respond better than others to vaccines until now the technology to assess this has not been available. This has impaired vaccine development. The overall goal of the Human Vaccines Project is to understand the 'rules' of how vaccines work. In this demonstration project the investigators will vaccinate healthy adults with hepatitis B vaccine to start to understand better how it works, ultimately helping with rational vaccine design in the future.
This is an open, uncontrolled pilot study of thirty chronic HCV infected patients carried out at Yassin Abdel Ghaffar Charity Center for Liver Disease and Research. The aim of this study is to investigate the safety & efficacy of combined therapy sofosbuvir (SOF) and daclatasvir (DCV) for treating HCV Genotype 4 in children aged 8 to 18. Due to previous positive results in other clinical studies of this drug it is expected that the drug will have high safety and high efficacy. Safety will be measured by checking for adverse effects, while efficacy will be measured by Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) detecting viral nucleic acids in blood samples.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
