Filter by:A randomized, open-label multicentre clinical trial of daily Myrcludex B versus entecavir in patients with HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B.
The hypothesis was to check whether baseline anti-E1E2 antibodies were correlated with the on-treatment viral kinetics and could predict virological outcome in treatment-experienced HCV-infected cirrhotic patients receiving protease inhibitor-based triple therapy.
The REP 301 treatment protocol involved the treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis B / hepatitis D co-infection with two agents: REP 2139-Ca and pegylated interferon (peg-IFN). In this protocol, similar reduction/clearance of serum HBsAg and improved response to immunotherapy were observed in addition to clearance of serum HDV RNA. The REP 301 protocol was designed to include a 24 week follow-up period after treatment, however given the strong antiviral response against HBV and HDV infection in these patients, it is now important to extend the follow-up period in these patients to monitor over a longer period after treatment the safety and efficacy combined REP 2139-Ca / peg-IFN treatment in patients in the REP 301 protocol.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is common in patients receiving hemodialysis. The uptake of antiviral therapy for these patients is limited in the era of interferon (IFN) plus ribavirin (RBV), probably because the sustained virologic response (SVR) rates are low and the risk of treatment-related adverse events (AEs) are high. In the era of IFN-free direct acting antiviral agents (DAAs), several studies have indicated high rates of SVR and excellent safety profiles to treat patients with severe renal impairment. With regard to ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir plus dasabuvir (PrOD) treatment, a phase 2 study (RUBY-1) study has shown 90% of SVR in treatment-naive HCV-1 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4 or 5. Among the HCV-1b patients, who received PrOD for 12 weeks, all 7 patients achieved SVR. Although the data confirmed the excellent safety and efficacy in HCV-1b patients with severe renal impairment, the patient number was small and the data with regard to treatment-experienced patients was lacking. Therefore, we aimed to evaluated the safety and efficacy of ProD for 12 weeks in treatment-naive and treatment-experienced HCV-1b patients receiving hemodialysis.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) in treating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in pediatric participants who are undergoing cancer chemotherapy.
This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (area under the curve [AUC], maximum concentration [Cmax], and other parameters) and tolerability of peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin combination therapy following single and multiple doses in participants with CHC infection and moderate to severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving hemodialysis. The anticipated time on study treatment is up to 48 weeks, and the target sample size is 48 individuals.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) versus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-containing regimens at Week 24 in participants with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and Stage 2 or greater chronic kidney disease who have received a liver transplant.
The purpose is to evaluate efficacy and safety of therapeutic HBV vaccine (mimogen-based) treatment in chronic hepatitis B patients and to explore the most effective dosage and provide the rational for optimal dosing schedule.
A high frequency of adrenal dysfunction (AD) has been reported in severe acute hepatitis (SAH) using the dosage of serum total cortisol (STC). Because 90% of circulating serum cortisol is bound to proteins that are altered in SAH, we aimed to investigate the effect of decreased cortisol-binding proteins on STC, serum free cortisol (SFC) and salivary cortisol (SalivCort) in SAH. Baseline (T0) and cosyntropin-stimulated (T60) STC, SFC and SalivCort concentrations were measured
This is a multicenter study in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infected adult patients who also have advanced cardiac disease or advanced lung disease.
