Filter by:The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF) + velpatasvir (VEL; GS-5816) with or without ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive adults with chronic genotype (GT) 1 or 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
The purpose of this study is to compare the liver toxicity in HIV-infected patients with chronic hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C, who start a new antiretroviral drug regimen, as well as the influence of the degree of pre-existing liver fibrosis on the incidence of liver toxicity.
This dose-escalating study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of different doses of a new bio-product Pegylated Recombinant Consensus Interferon Variant Solution for Injection (PEG-IFN-SA) and Ribavirin(RBV) in the treatment of Chronic hepatitis C who have not been previously treated with Interferon(IFN) by exploring the dose-effect relationship, while identity the optimal dose for phase Ⅲ study. In addition, population pharmacokinetic method is adopted to assess the pharmacokinetic behavior, individuals / intra-individual variability, and the possible factors for further study.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of setrobuvir in patients with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C. Treatment-naïve patients will be randomized to receive either setrobuvir (800 mg orally b.i.d loading dose followed by 200 mg orally .b.i.d.) or placebo in combination with standard of care Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and Copegus (ribavirin). Treatment duration will be 28 weeks or 48 weeks depending on response. Treatment-experienced patients categorized as relapsers, partial responders and viral breakthrough patients to previous pegylated interferon and ribavirin therapy will be randomized to receive either setrobuvir or placebo in combination with Pegasys and Copegus for 48 weeks. Treatment-experienced patients categorized as null-responders to previous pegylated interferon and ribavirin therapy will be assigned to treatment with setrobuvir plus Pegasys and Copegus for 48 weeks.
This clinical trial will test two new therapies for the treatment of alcoholic hepatitis. Patients who "respond" to the current standard of care therapy for alcoholic hepatitis(corticosteroid/prednisolone therapy) after 1 week of treatment will be randomly assigned to either continue on standard therapy, or, to begin treatment with rilonacept in combination with standard therapy. Patients who are "non-responders" to the current standard of care therapy after 1 week of treatment will be randomly assigned to standard of care or to begin treatment with mycophenolate mofetil in combination with standard therapy. Patients will be treated for a total of 4 weeks in this clinical trial. Patients will be followed for up to five months after completing therapy (6 months total).
This study is to confirm the potential effects and assess the safety of a new bio-product Pegylated Recombinant Consensus Interferon Variant Solution for Injection (PEG-IFN-SA) and Ribavirin(RBV) in the treatment of Chronic hepatitis C who have not been previously treated with Interferon.
The study is a first in man, dose escalation study that will measure the safety and efficacy of TT-034 in the treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis C. The study is divided into 5 dose levels. Subjects will be given a single dose delivered by IV infusion. The subjects will be monitored and the data analyzed. After a set time, between 6 and 10 weeks depending on the dose level, the next set of subjects will be dosed. The study drug is a gene therapy treatment that produces molecules that destroy the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) in infected cells. Once the study drug is given, it cannot be withdrawn. Additionally, once an individual receives a dose, he or she will not be able to receive a second dose, but will remain eligible to receive most other HCV treatments.
In the UK, infants currently receive a 5-in-1 vaccine (Pediacel) at 2, 3 and 4 months of age, which protects against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), polio and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Infants also routinely receive a meningococcal group C vaccine (MenC) at 3 and 4 months and a 13-valent pneumococcal vaccine (Prevenar13) at 2 and 4 months of age. This study aims to offer infants a 6-in-1 vaccine (Infanrix-Hexa)that also helps protect against hepatitis B alongside the other routine vaccinations in the UK infant immunisation schedule and assess their immune responses to the different vaccines. Hepatitis B virus infects the liver and usually affects adults, but children can be infected through close contact with carriers of the virus. Children with hepatitis B infection may not have symptoms for many years but may go on to develop liver failure, cirrhosis and cancer. Many other countries already use Infanrix-Hexa and this study is being undertaken to help decide whether the UK can do the same. Babies taking part in this study will receive Infanrix-Hexa instead of Pediacel. All other vaccines given will be the same as in the routine schedule but will include one MenC vaccine instead of 2 doses because the UK infant immunisation schedule is soon going to change so that all babies will receive only one MenC vaccine at 3 months of age. There are currently several licensed MenC vaccines that can be given to babies. In order to check whether there are differences in protection, babies taking part will randomly receive one of 3 MenC-containing vaccines: NeisVacC, Menjugate or Menitorix. Studies have already shown that one dose of Neis-Vac or Menjugate given to babies at 3 months provides similar protection against MenC infection as two doses given at 3 and 4 months. Menitorix protects against both Hib and MenC, so babies in the group receiving MenitorixTM will have an extra dose of Hib which is also included in Infanrix-Hexa but might have a lower antibody response to MenC compared to the other two MenC vaccines, although all infants should be well-protected after their 12-month booster vaccinations, which also contain Menitorix.
Patients with spontaneous decline of HBV DNA were non-randomly assigned to accept peginterferon alfa-2a or entecavir therapy, or didn't accept any antiviral regiment.
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the noninferiority of Algeron in combination with ribavirin compared to Pegasys in combination with ribavirin in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C.
