Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety after one primary dose and one additional dose of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine are administered in Korean healthy children aged 12-23 months.
This study involves randomizing patients due for once in a lifetime Hepatitis C screening based on Center for Disease Control and Prevention and United States Preventative Services Task Force guidelines in one of three primary care clinics within the MetroHealth System to bulk messaging and bulk ordering for HCV antibody vs usual care (routine alerting).
Hepatitis B is a common and serious infectious disease of the liver, affecting millions of people throughout the world. Persistent Hepatitis B virus infections may cause development of chronic hepatic insufficiency, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Adding to that, Hepatitis B Virus carriers can transmit the disease for many years. It is transmitted through blood or other body fluids infected with the Hepatitis B virus. It is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in countries like Bangladesh. Immunization with Hepatitis B vaccine has been proved effective to prevent HBV infection. But the vaccines, which are recommended till now, are expensive. Locally manufactured Hepatitis B vaccine will be safe, cost effective and affordable for all. The test vaccine will induce similar seroprotection rates to hepatitis B one month post-vaccination and at 7 months, one month after the third dose of vaccine compared to reference vaccine. This will be done by comparing the percentages of participants with ≥10 mIU/ml anti-HBs by vaccinated with either Hepa B or Engerix B vaccine. The non-inferiority margin will be 10%.
In this study, individuals without hepatitis C infection who are on the kidney transplant waitlist will receive a kidney from a deceased donor with hepatitis C infection and will be treated for hepatitis C at the same time. Treatment will include glecaprevir 300 mg / pibrentasvir 120 mg (G-P) administered on-call to the operating room for the renal transplant procedure and continued for 4 weeks post-renal transplant.
To investigate the safety and efficacy of PRI-724 against HCV or HBV liver cirrhosis.
The purpose of the Twinrix Pregnancy Registry is to prospectively collect data describing exposure to Twinrix before or during pregnancy, potential confounding factors (such as exposure to other medications) and information related to the outcome of the pregnancy. This is a prospective, voluntary, observational, exposure-registration study. Twinrix is designated as Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Pregnancy Category C, which means that its safety in human pregnancy has not been determined. The Registry is intended to provide an early signal of potential risks in advance of results from formal epidemiologic studies. Registry statistics can supplement animal reproductive toxicology studies and assist clinicians in evaluating the potential risks and benefits of vaccination for individual patients.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of selgantolimod and to evaluate the antiviral activity of selgantolimod in adult participants with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) who are viremic and not currently being treated.
This is a HEV seroprevalence in the health donors in the Canton Ticino study. The pre-donation sampling pouch of each blood donor coming form the Cantone Ticino region will be collected and tested for HEV serology (IgM and IgG).
Background: Infection with hepatitis D virus leads to a chronic liver disease with no effective treatment. Lonafarnib has improved hepatitis D virus levels in blood, but the medication still needs more research. Ritonavir makes other drugs more effective and is used with lonafarnib to make it more effective. Lambda interferon stimulates the body s response to viruses. Researchers want to see if combining these drugs fights hepatitis D and helps the liver. Objectives: To see if combining lonafarnib, ritonavir, and lambda interferon is safe and effective to treat chronic hepatitis D infection. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with chronic hepatitis D infection Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam, medical history, and blood and urine tests. Throughout the study, all participants will: - Follow rules for medicine, food, and contraception - Take hepatitis B medicine - Have weight checked - Have routine blood and urine tests - Give stool samples - Female participants will have pregnancy tests. Participants will have 3 visits before treatment. They will repeat screening tests and have a heart test and liver scan. Participants will have a 5-day inpatient stay. They will: - Baseline blood and urine tests - Have eye tests - Answer health questions - Have a liver sample taken and liver blood pressure measured. Participants will be sedated. - Have reproductive tests - Start the study drugs and have blood draws Over 24 weeks of treatment, participants will: -Take 2 study drugs by mouth every day and 1 as a weekly injection
Egypt has the highest prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in the world. In 2015, the prevalence of HCV RNA was found to be 7.0%.(1) The prevalence of HCV was studied in Rheumatoid arthritis in few studies(2,3), but to our knowledge, no previous work studied it in other rheumatologic diseases.
