Filter by:This is a single arm multicenter pilot study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL) fix dose combination (FDC) in patients with acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
The purpose of this study is to assess the rate of sustained virological response (SVR) 12 weeks after 8-week oral treatment with grazoprevir 100mg/elbasvir 50mg (MRK-combo) in patients with acute hepatitis C genotype1 or 4.
New and recently EMA/FDA approved direct acting antiviral (DAA) combination therapies cure 95% or more of the patients chronically infected with HCV genotype 1 and 4. Grazoprevir (MK-5172) and elbasvir (MK-8742) combination therapy is such a, albeit not yet EMA/FDA approved combination DAA therapy. It is likely that the synergistic effect of the host's immune response and antiviral therapy when given during the first 6 months of HCV infection makes antiviral therapy during acute HCV infection more effective. In this study the investigators would like to document that treatment of acute HCV with grazoprevir (MK-5172), elbasvir (MK-8742) is effective and can ben shortened from 12 to 8 weeks for HCV genotype 1 and 4 infection without substantial loss in efficacy. Study design and intervention: Prospective open label interventional clinical trial in which 80 acute HCV genotype 1 or 4 patients co-infected with HIV will receive 8 weeks of grazoprevir and elbasvir (a once-daily combination tablet). Study population: 80 Adult HIV positive patients with an acute HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection from 10 HIV treatment centers in the Netherlands and Belgium will be included. Primary endpoint: Sustained viral response (SVR) 12 weeks after the end of therapy in ITT study population (=genotype 1 and 4).
Patients with acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection usually become chronicity if viremia persists after 6 months of infection. The result of using pegylated interferon plus ribavirin combination therapy upon these patients remains to be explored
This is an open-label, single arm, multicenter, pilot-study to compare the efficacy and safety of LDV/SOF fixed dose combination (FDC) in subjects with acute genotype 1 HCV infection. A total of 20 subjects will be assigned to receive LDV/SOF FDC tablet (LDV 90 mg/SOF 400 mg/) once daily for 6 weeks.Patients will be followed up for 24 weeks.
A single long-term follow up assessment of an established multi-centre, prospective longitudinal cohort study of patients for clinical, psychosocial, immunovirological outcomes 4 to 8 years after previous treatment for recently acquired hepatitis C virus infection.
To determine whether response guided treatment with pegylated interferon +/- ribavirin is effective for the treatment of recently acquired hepatitis C infection. Response guided treatment is when the length of treatment is determined by how quickly you respond to the treatment.
This study plans to evaluate what happens to the brain in patients with HIV and early hepatitis C. The investigators will be comparing 3 groups of individuals: - Group 1: Individuals with HIV infection and acute (early) hepatitis C infection - Group 2: Individuals with HIV infection - Group 3: Healthy volunteers
