Filter by:Hepatitis c associated glomerulonephritis is an immune complex disease that occurs in 21% of patients who have HCV infection.
This is an observational study of cases of chronic hepatitis C and negative HCV controls in adults receiving chronic hemodialysis at the National Renal Health Center (NRHC) -EsSalud in Lima - Peru.The NRHC provides specialized health care, including hemodialysis, to people with advanced kidney disease from all the districts of Lima. Study population: By December 2017, there were 293 adults receiving chronic hemodialysis at the NRHC-EsSalud. All adult patients receiving chronic hemodialysis at the NRHC-EsSalud will be invited to participate. Primary objective: Characterize HCV disease in patients receiving chronic hemodialysis at the NRHC-EsSalud. Secondary objective: Identify factors associated with an increased risk of HCV infection. Inclusion criteria: Age > 18 years Receive chronic hemodialysis (for at least 6 consecutive months) at the NRHC. Exclusion criteria: • Inability to provide informed consent. To comply with the primary objective of the study, samples from volunteers with HCV serology confirmed in Roe Clinic Laboratory (cases) will be subjected to additional tests: HCV viral load followed by determination of the HCV genotype by using the Abbott m2000 real-time PCR system capable of identifying genotypes 1 (1a and 1b), 2, 3, 4 , 5 and 6, using fluorescent probes of oligonucleotides specific for each genotype . In addition to these lab tests, volunteers will have a Fibroscan test performed at a local provider, with the Fibroscan Model 402 with E and XL probes. The information will be collected in a Case Report Form (CRF), which will be filled out by study staff. The source of clinical information will be primarily the clinical history of the NRHC - EsSalud. The source of information on the results of the auxiliary tests will be obtained from the results issued by Roe Clinic Laboratory and by the image center of the Delgado Clínic. Protection of Human Subjects: The protocol and informed consent will be reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of the NRHC. No study procedure will be carried out if the volunteer has not given his or her written consent. All reasonable precautions will be taken to protect the privacy of the volunteer's information, whose data will be identified only through a code. Researchers will keep the study folders in a locked cabinet in a safe place
Neuropsychiatric adverse effects of direct acting antiviral drugs, especially Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir combination therapy (with or without ribavirin) in patients with chronic hepatitis C , genotype four (the predominant genotype in Egypt).
This is a multi-center, open-label trial of Elbasvir/ Grazoprevir 50/100 mg fixed dose combination 12 week treatment aimed to evaluate SVR12 in treatment naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C (genotype 1b) infection, associated with of metabolic syndrome. The study to be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices. A total of 60 subjects will be studied at 2 sites in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Males and Females treatment naïve patients with CHC genotype 1b infection associated with metabolic syndrome (MS), 18-70 years of age, with or without severe fibrosis / compensated cirrhosis will be enrolled. SVR 12 (primary endpoint) will be evaluated. Patients will be stratified by fibrosis stage and presence of metabolic syndrome components. Interim Analysis will be performed in order to estimate viral kinetics, applicability of SVR4 and durability of SVR12 by evaluation of virologic response at week 4 and 8 of treatment and follow-up at week 4 (SVR 4) and 24 will be performed - this will be a descriptive summary only without hypothesis testing. The main hypothesis is that 12-week therapy with MK-5172 in combination with MK-8742 for treatment-naïve patients with HCV genotype 1b with metabolic syndrome is not notably worse than the same course for treatment-naïve patients with HCV genotype 1b without metabolic syndrome.
- Hepatitis C is an infectious disease caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV) that primarily affects the liver. It is one of the main causes of chronic liver diseases worldwide . - According to World Health Organization (WHO), 2011 , Egypt has particularly high rates of Hepatitis C (22%). - Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is known to induce both hepatic and extra-hepatic manifestations. About 17% of HCV patients present with at least one skin manifestation, which can be directly or indirectly induced by chronic HCV infection .
The purpose of this study is to determinate the AMH levels before and after antiviral therapy with Ombitasvir-Paritaprevir-Ritonavir and Dasabuvir in comparison with age-matched HCV-positive women not undergoing antiviral treatment.
A study on regression of liver fibrosis assessed by transient elastography after Daclatasvir and Asunaprevir combined treatment in advanced fibrotic/cirrhotic patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1b Infection
The overall aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of cognitive impairments and brain anomalies in Chronic Hepatitis C infected individuals and to investigate likely changes in cognition and brain structure and function after treatment with Direct-acting Antivirals (DAAs).
This study is evaluating the safety and efficacy of a 12 week treatment LDV/SOF FDC in patients with Chronic GT1 or GT4 HCV infection and autoimmune disease
A Phase 1, First-in-Human, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetic Profiles of Single Ascending and Multiple Oral Doses of MB-110 in Healthy Volunteers and to Evaluate the Antiviral Activity of MB-110 in Hepatitis C Virus Infected Subjects
