View clinical trials related to Chronic Hepatitis C.
Filter by:Chronic hepatitis C infection (HCV) is a disease that affects worldwide about 170 million people. The previous standard of care therapy of chronic HCV patients consists of pegylated-IFN-α combined with ribavirin, and results in sustained clearance of HCV-RNA in only about 50% of the HCV genotype 1 infected patients. Telaprevir, a NS3A-4A inhibitor, has previously proven to offer therapeutic options to previous non-responders to the standard of care. Although, not all chronic HCV patients benefit from telaprevir and it is still not known why certain patients are also non-responsive to this triple therapy. In this study we try to understand why certain patients are also non-responsive to telaprevir, how triple therapy modulates the responsiveness to IFN-α and what the immunological consequences are of treatment with telaprevir, either directly or as a result of telaprevir-induced reduction of HCV-RNA levels.
•The purpose of this study is to compare the performance between liver biopsy and non-invasive fibrosis assessments evaluating anti-fibrotic efficacy of peginterferon plus ribavirin in patients with hepatitis C pre- and post-treatment
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF; GS-7977) in combination with ribavirin (RBV) with or without pegylated interferon (Peg-IFN) in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who participated in a prior Gilead HCV study and have not achieved sustained virologic response (SVR).
A study to evaluate the safety and effect of treatment with experimental antiviral drugs in combination with peginterferon alpha-2a and ribavirin in people with hepatitis C virus who did not respond to treatment in a previous AbbVie/Abbott combination study.
This study was to assess the safety and efficacy of sofosbuvir in combination with ribavirin (RBV) administered for 12 or 16 weeks in participants with genotypes 2 or 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection as assessed by the proportion of participants with sustained virologic response (SVR) 12 weeks after discontinuation of therapy (SVR12).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and effectiveness of peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin therapy in Korean chronic hepatitis C patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Peginterferon alfa-2b (40KD, Y shape, the followings will refer as Ypeginterferon alfa-2b for short), at a dose of 180μg/week, in combination with Ribavirin in Chinese chronic hepatitis C patients. The study will first group patients into two sub-study, genotype 2/3 and non-genotype 2/3, depending on the HCV genotype that infected. In the genotype 2/3 sub-study about 219 patients will be enrolled, and eligible patients are randomized at 2:1 ratio into Ypeginterferon alfa-2b group or active control group (Pegasys), receiving 24 weeks of interferon therapy and oral daily Ribavirin at a dose of 800mg/d. In the non-genotype 2/3 sub-study about 507 patients will be enrolled, and eligible patients are randomized at 2:1 ratio into Ypeginterferon alfa-2b group or active control group (Pegasys), receiving 48 weeks of interferon therapy and oral daily Ribavirin 1000-1200mg/day , basing on body weight. All patients will be followed for 24 weeks after the end of therapy.
The purpose of the study is to 1- detect and quantify HCV-PI resistant mutants with ultra-deep pyrosequencing (UDPS) technology, 2 - detect SNPs in P-glyocoprotein and CYP3A genes, in HCV mono-infected patients under/after Telaprevir treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of telaprevir in combination with Peg-IFN-alfa-2a and ribavirin in stable liver transplant patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1.
This multicenter study was to evaluate subjects with chronic genotype 2 or 3 HCV infection who were interferon (IFN) ineligible, IFN intolerant or unwilling to take IFN. Participants were randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive sofosbuvir (SOF)+ribavirin (RBV), or placebo to match SOF+placebo to match RBV. Randomization was stratified by presence/absence of cirrhosis. Approximately 20% of participants may have had evidence of cirrhosis at screening.
