Filter by:Phase II: Exploring the efficacy and safety of different doses of SH229 tablets combined with fixed-dose Daclatasvi dihydrochloride (DCV) tablets in the treatment of adult patients with chronic hepatitis C for 12 weeks, providing a basis for the design and implementation of phase III clinical trials. Phase III: Confirmation of the efficacy and safety of SH229 tablets combined with Daclatasvi dihydrochloride (DCV) tablets in the treatment of adult patients with chronic hepatitis C for 12 weeks, providing a sufficient basis for drug registration and clinical use.
Entecavir 1 mg is commonly used in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with previous antiviral resistance. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of switching to generic entecavir 1 mg (Baracle®, Dong-A Science Technology) in CHB patients taking brand name entecavir 1 mg (Baraclude®, Bristol-Myers Squibb) alone or in combination with other nucleos(t)ide analogues after the development of antiviral resistance. The primary aim is virological response (<20 IU/mL) at 12 months
The study is a non-randomized, single group clinical trial on monitoring hepatitis C therapy using telemedicine. Patients with chronic hepatitis C without cirrhosis will be treated with the pangenotypic regimen of direct acting antivirals sofosbuvir and velpatasvir for 12 weeks after a single visit to the clinic, in which treatment will be prescribed. Patients will be then monitored by telemedicine tools, like instant message application, telephone and video calls and by his or her primary physician when needed. Twelve weeks after treatment conclusion, hepatitis C virus RNA levels will be measured on a blood sample, indicating the cure rate and efficacy of this protocol on HCV treatment. The primary objective of the study is to address the feasibility and applicability of the usage of telemedicine tools to increase access and monitor HCV treatment with direct-acting antivirals in public health in Brazil.
Aims: To evaluate the impact of a letter, phone call and incentive in re-engaging patients with hepatitis C care. Outcomes of interest: Primary outcome of interest: - Attendance for assessment of liver disease within 4 months of being sent invitation letter. Secondary outcomes of interest: - Commencing treatment within 6 months of being sent invitation letter. Methods: Patient identification: The local copy of the Scottish Hepatitis C database holds data regarding patients referred to secondary care for treatment of their hepatitis C, and holds ethics approval for research on treatment and patient outcomes. This will be used to identify patients with hepatitis C infection that is untreated, treatment has been unsuccessful, or the patient has been treated but the outcome is unknown (due to non attendance for blood tests). The database has been cross checked with virus lab results, to ensure infection status is up to date. Finally, the patient data has been checked by NHS GG&C information team, to exclude patients who are deceased, or whom are no longer resident in NHS greater Glasgow and Clyde based on updated details obtained from SCIstore. Inclusion criteria: Patients (16 years and over) who have previously engaged with Hepatitis C services in Glasgow but who are either untreated, have been treated unsuccessfully, or have been treated but have not attended for blood tests to check for treatment success. Exclusion criteria: Patients with HIV. Patients no longer resident within NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde area. Allocation to contact groups: Patients will be randomly distributed into 3 groups: 1. Letter: Will be sent letter 1 (appendix) 2. Letter plus telephone call: will be sent letter 2 (appendix) and be followed up with a telephone call from the treatment centre if no contact has been received after 4 weeks 3. Letter plus incentive: will be sent letter 3 (appendix) Process: Patient letters will be sent out by GG&C public health. For all 3 groups the letter will be sent with the small Hepatitis C Scotland booklet "Hepatitis C treatments have changed". Letters will identify include the telephone number for the identified treatment centre which will be either, the last known treatment centre or a more local treatment centre were appropriate based on current residence. Primary and secondary outcomes measures will be collected via the Scottish Hepatitis C database. Lay Summary: This study will test whether a letter alone, a letter plus follow up phone call or a letter with offer of incentive, will be most effective in re-engaging patients who are known to have hepatitis C but not yet received treatment.
This study was to assess the safety and efficacy of Seraprevir in combination with sofosbuvir administered for 12 weeks in patients with Hepatitis C (HCV) genotype1. Efficacy was assessed by the rate of sustained viral response (SVR) 12 weeks after the discontinuation of therapy (SVR12).
In the current era of highly effective direct acting antiviral (DAA) therapy, the remaining obstacles to elimination of chronic HCV infection are identification of the high-risk groups, linkage to continued care and prevention of re-infection. It is estimated that 70-80% of patients with chronic HCV are unaware of their infection. Besides, public health education is limited and most patients are not aware that the current standard-of-care is highly effective, well tolerated and no longer require weekly subcutaneous injections. From a survey in Hong Kong in 2014, among 234 newly diagnosed HCV patients, only 20% agreed to undergo treatment. There is no universal screening programme for chronic hepatitis C infection in Hong Kong. and known high-risk patients include people who inject drugs (PWID), persons with certain medical conditions including those on hemodialysis, HIV infected, those with prior transfusion or organ transplantation. In this study, the investigators plan to reach out to PWIDs, people with substance abuse or prison inmates to provide rapid point-of-care screening for chronic hepatitis C infection, and to provide linkage to care for those diagnosed with chronic hepatitis C.
The overarching goal of the Kentucky Viral Hepatitis Treatment Project (KeY Treat) is to increase hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment access and delivery in a rural Appalachian community, which is in the midst of the opioid/hepatitis C (HCV) syndemic. KeY Treat is a clinical research study seeking to determine whether removing barriers (cost, insurance, specialist, abstinence) associated with accessing direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) for the treatment of HCV will impact health in Perry County, Kentucky.
There is a huge gap between the clinical efficacy and community effectiveness in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C in Taiwan. HCV infection prevails in uremic patients with the prevalence of > 10 % in Taiwan.The current study will be executed in each participating hemodialysis centers by an outreach team of HCV treaters, treating all of the HCV-viremic uremia patients and HD staffs at the same time (group therapy) in each individual HD center (Erase-C campaign) with all oral directly-acting antivirals, to ensure the rates of diagnosis, accessibility, treatment and follow-up.The purpose of the study is to demonstrate a model of care using outreach HCV treaters by implementing the concept of "group therapy" with one-size-fit-all pangenotypic DAA regimen, 12 weeks of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir, in each individual hemodialysis center (Erase-C campaign) to achieve HCV micro-elimination.
A First-Time-In-Human study on GSK's therapeutic vaccines to evaluate the reactogenicity, safety, immunogenicity and efficacy on reduction of serum HBV surface antigen in HBV suppressed subjects under nucleo(s)tide treatment.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of bulevirtide for treatment of chronic hepatitis delta (CHD) in comparison to delayed treatment.
