Filter by:This is a single-dose, randomized, cross-sectional comparison study examining the relative safety and resulting blood level profiles after administration of a new boceprevir tablet formulation versus its current capsule formulation for treatment of chronic hepatitis C. In Part 1 of the study participants will receive boceprevir tablets and capsules under fed conditions. In Part 2 of the study a new group of participants will receive boceprevir tablets and capsules under fasted conditions.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, 3 part study will assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of RO5303253 in healthy volunteers and patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1. In Part A, cohorts of healthy volunteers will be randomized to receive single ascending doses of RO5303253 or placebo. In Part 2, healthy volunteers will receive a single dose of RO5303253 or placebo in a cross-over design (with a washout period of at least 7 days) to assess food effects on pharmacokinetics. In Part 3, patients with chronic hepatitis C will be randomized ro receive either RO5303253 or placebo for 5 days.
Evaluate safety, tolerability, and antiviral response of ACH-0141625 compared to standard of care in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-positive participants.
The purpose of the study was to determine safety and efficacy of 48 weeks treatment with Thymosin alpha 1 (Talpha1) in combination with pegylated interferon (PEGIFN) alpha2a and ribavirin (RBV) in adult patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) already treated with, and not responding to previous courses of PEGIFN alpha plus RBV combination therapy, in comparison with a concurrent group treated with PEG IFN alpha2a in combination with RBV and placebo.
The current trial will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of GSK Biologicals' GSK2202083A vaccine when administered as a booster dose following priming in the first year of life with the same vaccine. This protocol posting deals with objectives & outcome measures of the booster phase. The objectives & outcome measures of the primary phase are presented in a separate protocol posting (NCT number = NCT00970307).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether BMS-790052 added to Peginterferon Alfa-2a and ribavirin can result in higher cure rates in patients who previously failed therapy and may have limited response to retreatment with Peginterferon Alfa-2a and ribavirin alone.
Untreated Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a progressive disease. Mainstay of treatment are corticosteroids (CS). In addition to being ineffective a substantial minority of cases, corticosteroid side-effects hamper effective therapy in another subgroup. Alternative options for induction of remission are limited. There are reports of successful salvage therapy with Cyclosporine-A (CsA) in steroid refractory cases. In addition, open-labeled studies have shown efficacy of Cyclosporine-A in treatment-naive AIH patients. There are no studies comparing CsA and CS in a head to head trial. The investigators aim to assess the efficacy and tolerability of CsA directly to the CS for induction of remission in treatment-naive AIH patients.
Hepatitis C (HCV) is a disease that affects the liver. ITX 5061 is a new medication that is being tested to treat HCV. This study will evaluate the safety of ITX 5061 and examine different doses of the medication to evaluate which dose is the most effective at lowering the amount of HCV in the blood.
The purpose of this study is to collect epidemiological data in children and adolescents with chronic hepatitis B(CHB), in particular data on the prevalence of HBeAg positive disease with associated ALT levels , active HBeAg negative disease and decompensated CHB in the pediatric population. Family history and history of HBV transmission is essential to assess the course of the disease and can be used to determine the best mode of treatment This information will be used to assist with the feasibility and design of studies for the Novartis clinical pediatric development program, as the current epidemiology of ediatric CHB is not accurately known in Western countries or the rest of the world making pediatric studies difficult to plan and conduct. This study forms part of the Novartis Pediatric Investigational Plan, a post marketing approval commitment to the EMEA Pediatric Committee.
The purpose of this study is to determine the seroprevalence of Hepatitis A Virus (HAV), Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex (HSV) and Bordetella pertussis (BP)infections in Mexico.
