Filter by:To assess the safety and tolerability of the use of telaprevir in the setting of post-exposure prophylaxis among HCW exposed to HCV genotype 1 or genotype 2. To assess the election rate of postexposure prophylaxis for HCV-related occupational exposures in HCW.
This study will compare monotherapy with tenofovir to sequential therapy with pegylated interferon alpha-2b (pegIFN-2b) followed by tenofovir, and to combination therapy with pegIFN-2b + tenofovir, in participants with hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive chronic hepatitis B and elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT). All enrolled participants will be be administered tenofovir alone for 8 weeks and then will be randomly assigned to 1 of the 3 treatment arms.
Primary Aims: 1. Evaluate HBV (Hepatitis B Virus) infection prevalence among Druze in the Galilee. 2. Educate the population in order to reduce transmission 3. Increase awareness among primary care providers Secondary Aims: 1. Identify chronic HBV infected patients who need to be followed and treated, 2. Identify HBV infected women in a childbearing age 3. Identify non immunized individuals and recommend vaccination 4. Identify previously vaccinated individuals who are not immunized 5. Identify previously vaccinated individuals who became infected Study Design: Study population is targeted to native Israeli Druze. We aim for evaluating up to 20,000 people from Druze communities in the Galilee area This work will be divided into three sections: 1. Increasing awareness: lectures and local events will be taken place in the communities. Written information will be given and primary care-providers mainly family doctors, nurses and obstetric surgeons will be involved. 2. All participants, upon signing a consent will: - Fill up a questioner - Checked for weight, height and waist circumflex - Have a blood sample taken 3. Results and recommendations will be forwarded to all participants
This study is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of boceprevir dosed 800 mg three times daily (TID) orally (PO) in combination with Peginterferon alfa-2b (PEG2b) 1.5 mcg/kg once a week (QW) administered subcutaneously (SC) plus ribavirin (RBV) (800 to 1400 mg/day) PO in Response Guided Therapy (RGT) in adult Vietnamese subjects with Chronic Hepatitis C, Genotype 1 (CHC GT1) who failed prior treatment with any interferon and ribavirin in Vietnam.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of BMS-986094 and Daclatasvir (DCV) when given in combination with or without Ribavirin
The objectives of this study are: 1. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different treatment regimens with BI 201335 (high dose given for 12 weeks or low dose given for 24 weeks both in combination with Pegylated interferon-a and Ribavirin (PegIFN/RBV) as compared to PegIFN/RBV alone in treatment-naïve (TN) chronic genotype 1 hepatitis C virus infected patients. 2. Evaluate the efficacy and the safety of BI 201335 high dose given for 12 weeks in combination with PegIFN/RBV given for 24 to 48 weeks as compared to PegIFN/RBV alone in chronic GT-1 hepatitis C virus infected relapser patients who failed a prior PegIFN/RBV treatment.
This is a three-part (Part A, Part B, and Part C), open-label, multicenter study of boceprevir in pediatric participants with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1 (GT1). In Part A and Part B, efficacy and safety will be evaluated in participants with CHC GT1 who are non-cirrhotic, treatment naïves (Part A) or who are non-cirrhotic, treatment failures to (peg)interferon/ribavirin or who are cirrhotics (whether treatment naïve or treatment failure) (Part B). Part C is long-term follow up and no study treatment will be administered during this period, but participants who do not achieve viral clearance will be allowed to receive other treatments for CHC.
This study is divided into 2 segments, and proposes to qualify fine needle aspiration (FNA) as a platform to evaluate the hepatic pharmacokinetics of low and high oral doses of Grazoprevir (MK-5172) in non-cirrhotic participants chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). The first segment, is a procedural pilot conducted prior to the main study, that is aimed at ensuring optimal execution of the FNA procedure. During the procedural pilot, core needle biopsy (CNB) will be performed on participants as part of their standard of care, but no study drugs will be administered, nor will any procedures other than FNA be conducted. The second segment, the main study, is designed to evaluate the feasibility of measuring Grazoprevir by FNA. During the main study, drugs will be administered, and other additional procedures will be conducted.
The purpose of this study is to determine the change from baseline in HCV Ribonucleic acid (RNA) on Day 4 following three days of dosing with BMS-929075 in chronically genotype subtype 1a and 1b HCV infected subjects
Aim of the present study is to evaluate in a cohort of patients with genotype 2/3 chronic hepatitis C, relapsers to a previous PEG-IFN + ribavirin therapy (alpha-2a or alpha-2b) the efficacy of PEG-IFNα-2a + ribavirin administered for 24 or 48 weeks. It will be evaluated whether 48 weeks of therapy may achieve better results compared to the standard duration (24 weeks).
