Filter by:Standard therapy for chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) is (Peg/RBV) combination therapy obtaining sustained virologic response (SVR) in 77% of naïve patients with genotype 1-3 Studies rarely address the issues of improving host factors. The current study examines whether adding vitamin D with Peg/RBV, a potent immunomodulator, could improve viral response(SVR)compared to Peg/RBV.
The goal of this study is to translate laboratory findings that Quercetin, a bioflavonoid, is safe and has antiviral activity in people with hepatitis C.
The Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis C have a different genetic background, which had been demonstrated to significantly influence their responses to pegylated interferon and ribavirin. In this study, Chinese patients with Hepatitis C Virus genotype 1, 2/3, 6 infection were treated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. Their response was compared amongst different genotypes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a physician directed education program on treatment compliance of hepatitis C patients administered triple drug therapy of pegylated interferon, ribavirin and boceprevir.
Analysis of HCV-specific T cell responses in patients treated with boceprevir to assess whether therapy can induce restoration of the T cell function and to what extent this recovery can be achieved
Menopause represents a critical period in a woman's life as the hormonal changes and the failing ovarian function not only determine relevant modifications in the reproductive function but also in many other conditions and organs that apparently are scarcely linked with hormones. The PI's centre has among its main goals the treatment of chronic liver disease; in the last years, a increasing interest in gender-related issues has grown. Goal of this study is to verify the impact of menopause on response to antiviral therapy for CHC and in determining more severe fibrosis in comparison with age-matched men. To achieve this goal a database of all the PEG IFN/Ribavirin patients treated in the GI Unit of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in the last 7 years will be set up. Demographic, clinical and biochemical data as well data regarding the reproductive history, time, type, length of estrogen deprivation and of hormone-replacement therapy will be collected.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether therapy with the combination of PSI-7977 and daclatasvir (BMS-790052) with or without ribavirin is effective in treating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection when given for 12 or 24 weeks as measured by sustained virologic response with undetectable HCV RNA 12 weeks post treatment
Sustained virological response (SVR) to antiviral therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 according to subtype (1a vs.1b) has not been extensively investigated. This observational study was carried out on a large group of "naïve" HCV patients to evaluate difference, if any, between HCV genotype 1 subtype 1a and 1b on the response to treatment with peginterferon (Peg-IFN) plus ribavirin.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and 4-week rapid virologic response (RVR) of 3 different doses of ABT-267 (also known as ombitasvir) in combination with pegylated interferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV) compared with pegIFN/RBV alone (ABT-267 placebo) in treatment naïve, hepatitis C virus (HCV), genotype 1-infected participants.
This is an extension of ongoing study SCI-SCV-HCV-P2-001 in which subjects will be invited to participate in this extension study if they complete treatment in study SCI-SCV-HCV-P2-001 and are eligible for retreatment with peg-IFN and RBV.
