Filter by:INTRO-HCV is a multicentre randomised controlled clinical trial that will compare the efficacy of integrated treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) within medically assisted rehabilitation (MAR) clinics providing opioid substitution therapy (OST) compared to standard treatment. The trial will recruit approximately 250 HCV infected in Bergen and Stavanger and about 1000 in a linked observational study. Intervention: Integrating diagnostic and treatment follow-up for HCV treatment into MAR outpatient clinics in Bergen and Stavanger including testing for HCV, counselling and treatment evaluation and treatment delivery. Primary objectives: Compare the effect of integrated HCV treatment assessed with sustained virological response at 12 weeks between the MAR outpatient clinics in Bergen and Stavanger (intervention arm) with standard treatment provided after referral to infectious disease clinics among patients who receive OST having HCV Secondary objectives: Compare treatment adherence between the intervention and control arms, and assess changes in quality of life, fatigue and psychological well-being before and after HCV treatment, as well as changes in drug use, infection related risk behavior, and risk of reinfection among those with sustained virological response. Main endpoint: Sustained virological response of HCV at 12 weeks (± 10 days) Study population: The target group will be patients receiving care with MAR from involved outpatient clinics in Bergen, Sandnes and Stavanger who are chronically infected with HCV and eligible for treatment according to national guidelines. Study duration: Participants will be included and followed up at least annually for the total study duration between 2017 and 2021. Expected outcome: This study will inform on the relative advantages and disadvantages of an integrated treatment program for HCV into MAR compared to standard care aiming to increase access to treatment and improved treatment adherence. If the integrated treatment structure is found to be safe and efficacious, it can be considered for further scale-up.
Evaluate the efficacy of 12 or 8 weeks treatment with Grazoprevir/Elbasvir in Early Chronic Hepatitis C GT1,4 in HIV co-infected patients and evaluate the safety and tolerability of Grazoprevir + Elbasvir in HIV-HCV co-infected patients.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) vaccine therapy in treating patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection that persists or progresses over a long period of time. Vaccines made from DNA may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells that express HCV infection.
The study will assess the efficacy of PPI-668 (USAN: ravidasvir hydrochloride) in combination with sofosbuvir, with or without ribavirin, in the following Egyptian HCV gt-4 patient populations: 1. Treatment-naïve patients, with and without cirrhosis (Group 1) 2. Previous non-responders to interferon-based therapies, without cirrhosis (Group 2) 3. Previous non-responders to interferon-based therapies, with cirrhosis (Group 3)
The aim of the present trial is to evaluate whether the conversion of immunosuppression from tacrolimus to cyclosporine A induces changes in (i) hepatitis C-virus load, (ii) parameters of hepatic function and (iii) parameters of glucose tolerance in hepatitis C-positive renal transplant recipients.
Study SPC3649-207E is designed as an extension study to the prior protocol to provide additional long-term safety and efficacy information for subjects participating in Study SPC3649-207.
The purpose of this study is to determine the progression of chronic hepatitis C patients infected by paid plasma donation,and explore the possible pathogenic mechanisms of disease progression in chronic hepatitis C.
Primary objective: Evaluate the prevalence of personality disorders in patients starting treatment for hepatitis C in the prison and determine their influence on the evolution of the disease.
The purpose of this open-label study is to assess the safety, tolerability, antiviral activity, genotype resistance associated with virological failure, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of two dose regimens of miravirsen in combination with telaprevir and ribavirin in subjects with hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infection who are null responder to pegylated-interferon alpha and ribavirin.
To examine the safety and efficacy of response guided triple therapy (PEG-IFN, Ribavirin, Telaprevir) for the treatment of early chronic HCV infection.
