Filter by:This is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, non-randomized controlled real-world study to explore the efficacy and safety and to accumulate more evidence-based medical data of an antiviral treatment programme for chronic viral hepatitis B with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. A total of 1500 patients with chronic hepatitis B complicated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease are divided into test group (1000 patients receiving PEG-IFNα-based antiviral therapy (combined NAs or Peg-IFNα monotherapy) and control group(500 patients receiving NAs monotherapy) according to their treatment intention. Laboratory and medical data from specified follow-up points are collected, and adverse events and drug combinations are recorded detailly. The primary efficacy indicator is HBsAg clearance at 48 weeks of treatment, and the secondary indicators included: (1) HBsAg clearance at 96 weeks of treatment, (2) Cumulative HBsAg clearance at week 24、120、144、168、192、216 and 240; (3) The improvement of liver function level(ALT, AST, TBIL, etc.), blood lipid (TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, etc.), fasting blood glucose, insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), controlled attenuation parameter, body mass index , liver stiffness measurement, liver histological fibrosis, FIB-4 index from baseline; (4)Incidence of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma during follow-up. The security assessment includes adverse events, vital signs, and imaging.
A prospective cross-sectional study in which surgically non-invasive sample-taking is done only for the purpose of testing the samples on iStatis HBsAg Test at the point of care.
A prospective cross-sectional study in which surgically non-invasive sample-taking is done only for the purpose of the study. Capillary (fingerstick) whole blood and EDTA venipuncture whole blood are collected by a healthcare professional. The collected samples of capillary and EDTA whole blood are tested on iStatis and EDTA whole blood sample will be processed to obtain serum and plasma samples to be tested on the iStatis. An aliquot of the collected serum sample will be shipped to the central laboratory for confirmatory testing. The results from iStatis HBsAg Test results will not be used for patient management decisions.
This is a five-year, double blinded, randomised trial of dapagliflozin versus placebo in patients with chronic hepatitis B and DM or IFG complicated with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD). 412 subjects will be recruited. Subject will be randomly assigned to receive dapagliflozin 10mg daily or dapagliflozin placebo one tablet daily for up to 5 years. After randomization, subject will be followed up at month 3, month 6 and then 6-monthly until 60 months (follow up ± 4 weeks from scheduled clinic visit is allowed). At each visit, drug compliance, physical examination, observed or reported adverse events will be assessed. 10ml of blood will be taken at each visit and transient elastography to assess fibrosis regression will be performed at 60th month or at withdrawal visit. You are discouraged to use (pegylated)-interferon, any other NA including lamivudine, adefovir, and telbivudine, another SGLT2i Empagliflozin (Jardiance), Dapagliflozin + Metformin XR (Xigduo).
Background: Sudan has a high prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), exceeding 8%. The prevalence of hepatitis B varies across different regions of Sudan, ranging from 6.8% in central Sudan to as high as 26% in southern Sudan. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can lead to various complications, including cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Hepatitis D virus (HDV) relies on HBV for replication and can accelerate the progression of HBV-related liver diseases, leading to more severe outcomes. This study aims to determine the prevalence of HDV infection among Sudanese patients with HBV-related liver diseases and to investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with HBV/HDV co-infection. Design/Method: This descriptive cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted at Ibn Sina Specialized Hospital in Sudan between June and September 2022. Ninety HBV patients aged 16 years and above were included. Patients were interviewed using a structured questionnaire, and medical histories and examinations were recorded. Investigations included liver function tests, abdominal ultrasounds, and ELISA for Ant-HDV-IgG
This is a prospective, open-labled, randomized controlled study to assess efficacy and safety of treatment with Sintilimab (PD-1 antibody) combined Peg-IFNα-2b in CHB patients on stable NAs treatment.
The goal of this observational study is to evalue the cumulative proportion of patients with OBI who do not develop HBsAg seroreversion and/or an increase of serum HBV DNA by at least 1 log above the lower limit of detection of the assay in a patient who had previously undetectable HBsAg and HBV DNA in serum during the study.
Previous clinical practice and exploratory studies suggest that some patients who have not achieved functional cure in the first round of interferon therapy can achieve HBsAg clearance by interferon retreatment (intermittent therapy), which can reduce the occurrence of complications such as liver fibrosis, liver cirrhosis and liver cancer, and its clinical benefit is expected to be higher than that of NAs monotherapy. This study is aimed to conduct a large-scale, multicenter, prospective study to confirm the benefit of peginterferon-based therapies in these populations. It expected to enroll about 2000 patients with chronic hepatitis B who have received prior interferon therapy and achieved a good response but without function cure, patients receive either interferon-based therapy or NAs monotherapy, according to their wishes and doctors' professional recommendations, with a ratio of 2:1 between the two groups, and all patients treated for 48 weeks. The HBsAg clearance rate before and after treatment, safety, etc. will be analyzed.
This study is a research aiming to identify knowledge , attitude and practice of population in a village in a remote governorate towards viral hepatitis B and C . It involves home visit interviews with population in this village with the use of questionnaire involving questions asked by the researcher that would be orally answered by the participants to be recorded in papers by the researcher.
The goal of this retrospective observational study is to find out the effects of probiotics on HBV clearance. The main question it aims to answer is: Are the probiotics have an effect in promoting HBV clearance? The participants will observe the HBV clearance rate in chronic hepatitis B patients receive probiotics in addition to the routine antiviral therapy. Researchers will compare the HBV clearance rate in chronic hepatitis B patients receive probiotics and antiviral therapy with those receiving solely antiviral therapy.
