Filter by:Current treatment guidelines indicate that oral antiviral agents for HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B virus infection (CHB) can be stopped if the patient has undergone HBeAg seroconversion with HBV-DNA loss measured at two consecutive occasions at least 6 months apart (primary treatment endpoint). Stopping treatment can be considered if undetectable HBV-DNA has been documented on three separate occasions 6 months apart in HBeAg-negative patients. However, oral antiviral drugs currently approved for the treatment of CHB have relatively limited sustained long-term efficacy and a large proportion of patients will suffer from HBV recurrence after stopping treatment.
To evaluate the proportion of patients with undetectable HCV RNA at 12 weeks post end of treatment (SVR12) following sofosbuvir/GS-5816 therapy for 12 weeks in people with chronic HCV infection and recent injection drug use.
Background/Aims: The investigators explored the therapeutic effects of probiotics in patients with AH. Methods: Between December 2012 and January 2015, the investigators conducted a 7-day, double-controlled, randomized, prospective clinical trial comparing the efficacy of probiotics in improving liver enzymes, LPS, pro-inflammatory cytokines, stool culture, and stool Polymerase chain reaction denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. AH was defined as an aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 2 and elevated AST (ALT) level with an alcohol consumption history within 48 hours. Patients were randomized to receive 7 days of cultured Lactobacillus rhamnosus R0011/acidophilus R0052 (120 mg/day) or placebo. The levels of liver enzymes, modified Discriminant Function (mDF), LPS, and pro-inflammatory cytokines, stool culture, and stool Polymerase chain reaction denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis were checked at baseline and again after therapy.
Objectives: 1) To evaluate la proportion of hepatitic C virus (HCV)-monoinfected patients who show sustained virologic response (SVR) to treatment including direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) in the clinical practice in clinical units that treat infectious diseases and 2) to determine the frequency of adverse events, including those that are severe and/or cause treatment interruption, in DAA-based therapy in this setting. Design: Multicentric, prospective post-authorised cohort study. Setting: Hospitals of the Hepatitis Study Group (GEHEP) of the Spanish Society of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology (SEIMC). Study population: HCV-monoinfected patients that initiate DAA-based treatment outside clinical trials. Variables: The primary efficacy outcome variable is the proportion of patients who reach undetectable HCV-RNA 12 weeks after the scheduled end of therapy (SVR12). The primary safety outcome variable is the percentage of subjects who discontinue therapy due to adverse events. Statistical analysis: A descriptive study will be performed, as well as a double sensibility analysis of the frequency of SVR12 using both an intention-to-treat and an on-treatment approach. Those variables that are associated with SVR12 with a p-value <0.2 will be included in a logistic regression analysis in which SVR12 will be the dependent variable.
This is a randomized, three-part, parallel-group, open-label trial of grazoprevir (MK-5172) (100 mg) and uprifosbuvir (MK-3682) (300 mg or 450 mg) with either elbasvir (MK-8742) (50 mg) or ruzasvir (MK-8408) (60 mg), and with or without ribavirin (RBV), in treatment-naive (TN) or treatment-experienced (TE) cirrhotic (C) or non-cirrhotic (NC) participants infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 3, GT4, GT5, or GT6. Part A will consist of 4 arms to evaluate the safety of dose combinations. In Part B, participants will take 2 uprifosbuvir (+) grazoprevir (+) ruzasvir (MK-3682B) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablets once daily (q.d.) by mouth, with or without twice-daily (b.i.d.) RBV (200 mg capsules; weight-based dosing). Participants who relapse following completion of therapy in Part A will be offered the option of retreatment with 16 weeks of uprifosbuvir (+) grazoprevir (+) ruzasvir with RBV in Part C (data obtained from Part C will not be used in the analysis of outcome measures).
This is a randomized, three-part, open-label trial of grazoprevir (GZR; MK-5172) (100 mg) and uprifosbuvir (UPR; MK-3682) (300 mg or 450 mg), with either elbasvir (EBR; MK-8742) (50 mg) or ruzasvir (RZR; MK-8408) (60 mg), and with or without ribavirin (RBV), in treatment-naïve (TN) cirrhotic (C) or non-cirrhotic (NC) hepatitis C virus (HCV) participants with chronic HCV genotype (GT) 1 or GT2 infection. Part A will consist of 8 arms to evaluate the safety of dose combinations. In Part B, participants will take 2 UPR+GZR+RZR fixed dose combination (FDC) tablets once daily (q.d.) by mouth, with or without twice-daily (b.i.d.) RBV (200 mg capsules; weight-based dosing). Participants who relapse following completion of therapy in Part A will be offered the option of retreatment with 16 weeks of UPR+GZR+RZR with RBV in Part C (data obtained from Part C will not be used in the analysis of outcome measures).
This study is a multi-center, randomized, prospective open-label study to assess the efficacy and safety of combination of peginterferon alfa-2b (40kD, Y-shape) and GM-CSF in interferon-naïve chronic hepatitis B patients with HBeAg positive. Patients were randomized to one of the 2 groups to receive different antiviral treatment.
This study evaluates generic emtricitabine(FTC) efficacy and safety in Chinese naive pregnant chronic hepatitis B patients. Single group patients were enrolled to receive emtricitabine till 48 weeks after delivery.
This study evaluates generic emtricitabine(FTC) in Chinese naive children chronic hepatitis B patients. Single group of child patients were enrolled, which include HBeAg positive and negative Chronic hepatitis B(CHB)group.
This study evaluates generic emtricitabine(FTC) in Chinese naive chronic hepatitis B patients. Patients were divided into 2 groups: HBeAg positive Chronic hepatitis B(CHB)group and HBeAg negative Chronic hepatitis B(CHB)group.
