Filter by:The principle is to propose dedicated monthly screening days bringing together the health personnel involved (hepatologist, addictologist, nurse in charge of the program, addictology nurse and social worker) and to propose appropriate management for each situation assessed.
Chronic hepatitis B seriously endangers the health of our people, especially the occurrence of HCC, which brings huge economic burden and life threat to our people. 84% - 92% of HCC in China is related to chronic HBV infection. How to further reduce the risk of liver cancer is an urgent problem to be solved in clinical research and an important direction. Although NAs treatment can make patients achieve the negative transformation of virus, it can not effectively reduce the level of virus antigen, and it also lacks the ability to improve the immune clearance of virus. As a result, the incidence of liver cancer in patients with long-term NA treatment is still 4.5% - 10.5%, and the incidence of HCC in patients with hypoviremia in Na treatment is higher. In current clinical practice, nearly 1 / 3 of patients treated with NAs can not reach the detection line of highly sensitive reagent. It is an important measure to make the patients with hypoviremia and inactive low virus replication treated by NAs below the detection line of highly sensitive reagent and further reduce the risk of HCC. However, it is still not enough to minimize the risk of HCC to achieve a complete viral response only through NA treatment. The long-term follow-up showed that the incidence of HBsAg disappeared by only 2.0% - 0.0% regardless of the long-term treatment of HBsAg. Therefore, the most important measure to minimize the occurrence of HCC is to optimize the treatment of NA treated patients with low virus replication and inactive patients with low virus replication to achieve complete virus response and clinical cure. The purpose of this study is to explore the optimal treatment scheme for chronic hepatitis B NA treated patients with hypoviremia and natural low virus replication patients to significantly reduce the risk of HCC.

This is an open-label, single arm (two cohorts), single-center, phase II pilot-study to provide preliminary evidence whether hepatitis B immunoglobulins (HBIG) are efficacious and can be safely used in patients with chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection. A total of 20 patients (male or female adults aged ≥ 18 years) will be enrolled in the study and receive hepatitis B immunoglobulins Hepatect®CP and Zutectra®.
This is an open-label study to determine the efficacy, safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of ChAdOx1-HBV and MVA-HBV, together VTP-300, in combination with low-dose nivolumab, in patients with chronic HBV who are virally suppressed with oral anti-viral therapies.
This Phase 1/2a multiple part study is a first time-in-human (FTIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single (Part 1) and repeat doses (Part 2) of GSK3965193 in healthy participants. Part 3 will evaluate the ability of GSK3965193 to lower hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) in participants living with chronic hepatitis B infection (PLWCHB). Part 4 will evaluate the safety and tolerability of combination therapy with GSK3965193 and bepirovirsen and the potential to effect sustained virologic response in PLWCHB.
Alcoholic hepatitis, the most florid form of alcoholic liver disease, has a very high short-term mortality of up to 50% and no specific therapies are available other than steroids. Steroids also only show a limited utility in improving the short-term survival and boast no evidence of any long-term benefits. Additionally, only a small proportion of patients with alcoholic hepatitis are eligible to receive steroids. Thus, a large number of patients are either not eligible or do not respond to steroids and this group outnumbers those who do respond to steroids, leaving us without any specific therapeutic options for a majority of these individuals.Even liver transplantation is not feasible in most cases due to the presence of sepsis or recent alcohol consumption and many ethical and logistic issues are involved despite the documented safety and survival benefits of early liver transplantation in patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis (SAH) not responding to medical management.Therefore, newer, more effective, and nontransplant therapeutic options for managing severe alcoholic hepatitis are needed. Since gut dysbiosis, leaky gut, and products of the gut microbiome reaching the liver are the main culprits in the development of alcoholic hepatitis, targeting qualitative and quantitative changes in the gut microbiome remains an important strategy in developing new therapies for alcoholic hepatitis. Among others, the modulation of gut microbiota by fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has recently been conceptualized and evaluated as a potential therapeutic strategy in both preclinical and clinical studies.
The aim of study is to evaluate the current prevalence of HDV infection, and comprehensively analyze the interaction between HDV and HBV infections in the era of NAs in Taiwan. Investigators plan to set up a platform for HDV positive patients in Taiwan to invite sites or hepatologists who are interested in this field.
The National Australian HCV Point-of-Care Testing Program will establish an observational cohort to evaluate whether scale-up of finger-stick point-of-care HCV testing increases diagnosis and treatment for HCV infection. Participants will be recruited from settings providing services to people with a risk factor for the acquisition of HCV infection (including drug treatment clinics, needle and syringe programs, homelessness settings, mental health services, prisons, and mobile outreach). All participants who undergo HCV point-of-care testing at the study site will be included in the data collection. Participants will not receive treatment as a part of this study. Participants who are HCV RNA positive will be linked to standard of care.
The study is designed to assess efficacy of a finitie treatment in Chronic Hepatitis B patients who had stable treatment of NAs for ≧ 2 years, which is compared hepalatide in combination with Pegylated Interferon + TAF with Pegylated Interferon +TAF. Subjects will be randomly assigned to the hepalatide or placebo groups , 15 subjects in each group . Subjects will receive hepalatide+Pegylated Interferon +TAF treatment for 48 weeks or placebo +PegylatedInterferon +TAF treatment for 48 weeks , Then, stopping all treatments and followed with further 24 weeks follow-up.
