Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind clinical trial of two inactivated hepatitis A vaccines in healthy children, immunogenicity and interchangeability of the two inactivated hepatitis A vaccines were evaluated.
The purpose of this trial is to describe the Seroprotection Rate (SPR) at least 2 years following completion of a primary series with a hepatitis B vaccine (Base Study V232-059, NCT00440531) and 1 month following a challenge dose with a Modified Process Hepatitis B vaccine.
Loss of total mass of muscles (catabolism) is a serious clinical problem in patients with alcoholic hepatitis. The liver might play an important role in this stress-catabolism by increasing the production of urea during the inflammatory process. The purpose of this study is to examine the regulation of urea synthesis in patients with alcoholic hepatitis and to study the effect of the anti-inflammatory drugs prednisolone and pentoxifylline on this regulation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of telaprevir administered twice daily versus every 8 hours in combination with Peg-IFN-alfa-2a and ribavirin in treatment-naïve participants with chronic HCV genotype 1 infection.
This study will evaluate immune responses in patients with HBeAg-negative chronic Hepatitis B treated with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a). Eligible patients will have been randomized in study ML18253 to receive Pegasys 180 mcg subcutaneously for 48 or 96 weeks. Sample collection period for each patients will occur in the first 24 weeks.
HIV infection exerts a negative impact on the course of HCV infection. Co-infected individuals progress more rapidly to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and ESLD compared to those infected with HCV alone. Some of the this accelerated fibrosis may be related to longterm chronic toxicity from protease inhibitor based ART. Hypothesis: Switching from ritonavir boosted-PI based ART regimen to a Raltegravir-based regimen will reduce the rate of hepatic fibrosis progression in HIV-HCV co-infected patients as measured by transient elastography (Fibroscan®) and the AST-to-platelet ratio index (APRI).
Vitamin D deficiency is commonly found in patients with chronic hepatitis C. The investigators hypothesize that the correction of hypovitaminosis D before the initiation of anti-HCV combination therapy and the maintenance of an optimal vitamin D status during antiviral therapy could improve the antiviral efficacy
This phase 2b study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 16 and 24 weeks of response-guided duration of therapy with GS-9190 and GS-9256 in combination with Peginterferon Alfa-2a (Pegasys®) and Ribavirin (Copegus®). Additionally, the efficacy and safety of 24 weeks of GS-9256 in combination with Peginterferon Alfa-2a (Pegasys®) and Ribavirin (Copegus®) will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of ABT-450 with ritonavir (ABT-450/r) dosed in combination with ABT-072 and ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naïve participants with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
This randomized, open-label, active-controlled, parallel-group study will evaluate the sustained virological response of danoprevir boosted with low dose ritonavir in combination with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and Copegus versus Pegasys and Copegus alone in treatment-naive patients with chronic Hepatitis C.
