Filter by:The primary objective of this post-marketing surveillance study is to collect and assess data related to the safety and effectiveness of Harvoni® (ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF)) treatment regimen, per the approved Korea prescribing information for Harvoni, in routine clinical practice in Korea and to report the results to the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS). Participants will be treated as part of routine practice at Korean healthcare centers by accredited physicians.
The purpose of this study is to determinate the AMH levels before and after antiviral therapy with Ombitasvir-Paritaprevir-Ritonavir and Dasabuvir in comparison with age-matched HCV-positive women not undergoing antiviral treatment.
The study is a 'pilot study' to assess the effect of a mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) intervention on patients with autoimmune liver disease specifically autoimmune hepatitis type I. MBSR is a standardized intervention that has shown benefit in addiction disorders and other psychiatric disorders. There has been no study evaluating or showing the benefit of the use of MBSR in autoimmune liver disease. With published data showing the evidence of an association of stress and relapse in autoimmune hepatitis, it is hypothesized that such an intervention such as MBSR may have therapeutic effect in patients with autoimmune liver disease.
Open-label experimental trial of 12 weeks of Viekira Pak treatment ± ribavirin or Mavyret for adults with chronic kidney disease and hepatitis C.
Portal hypertension is a common pathology in chronic liver disease, particularly in liver cirrhosis. Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) is one of most etiologies of liver cirrhosis in China. The basic reason for portal hypertension in HBV is the largely deposition of hepatic extracellular matrixes which causes high pressure in liver vessels. One of the most common symptoms of cirrhotic portal hypertension is gastroesophageal varices.The effective inhibition of HBV can partially stop or reverse liver fibrosis in patients with chronic Hepatitis and liver cirrhosis due to HBV and the anti-fibrotic strategy focusing on the regulation of hepatic extracellular matrix may have a great benefit. Therefore, antivirals therapy is also a basic treatment for low-grade cirrhotic portal hypertension. Fuzheng Huayu has been found to enhance the degradation of collagens in fibrotic liver and have a good action against liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B. However, there are no high quality clinical evidences which can demonstrate if the combination of anti-viral and anti-fibrotic therapy can relieve the pressure of liver vessels and decline incidence rate and bleeding rate of gastroesophageal varices.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of paritaprevir/ritonavir/ombitasvir with ribavirin used for participants infected with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 2 in daily practice in Japan.
Depression is one of the most common psychiatric diseases, with prevalence estimates ranging from 5% to 20%. Depression is now recognized as a brain disease; it can be managed and treated effectively with a wide range of options, but its biological basis is still far from clear. Studies of monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs suggest polygenic inheritance, with an overall heritability estimate between 40% and 70 %. Gene-environment interaction has been recognized for a long time in the pathophysiology of depression, and its best biological substratum at present is represented by the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) gene. It would be interesting to study association between the novel allelic variants or at least the triallelic 5-HTTLPR polymorphism and depression. Depression is common in patients with end-stage renal disease and to occur in about 20% to 30% of hemodialysis patients. Interferon-induced depression is estimated up to 50% among patients with hepatitis C. Several sets of observations support the supposition that cytokines, and proinflammatory cytokines in particular, are involved in depressive disorders. Depression sufferers have been reported to have elevated blood levels of interleukin 1 (IL-1), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α).
This study is a phase IV, open-label, single arm, multicentre study whose aim is to assess whether interferon-free and ribavirin-free Direct Acting Antiviral (DAA) Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) therapy with grazoprevir/elbasvir, will be feasible for the treatment of People who inject drugs (PWID) with recent injecting drug use or people receiving opioid substitution therapy and chronic HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection.
This phase I/II clinical trial studies the side effects of pembrolizumab with or without elbasvir/grazoprevir and ribavirin and to see how well they work in treating patients with liver cancer that has spread to other places in the body and does not respond to previous treatment. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Elbasvir/grazoprevir and ribavirin may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving pembrolizumab in combination with elbasvir/grazoprevir and ribavirin may work better in treating patients with liver cancer than with pembrolizumab alone.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of co-administration of glecaprevir (ABT-493)/pibrentasvir (ABT 530) plus sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) in hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1 - 6-infected participants (including non-cirrhotic, or cirrhotic with compensated cirrhosis participants) who had experienced virologic failure in an AbbVie parent clinical study.
