Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is one of the major globally cause of death and morbidity.Chronic hepatitis C is the leading cause of end-stage liver disease, hepatocellular carcinoma and liver-related death in Egypt.It could be considered a special type of metabolic diseases involving insulin resistance (IR) which accelerates fibrosis and modulation of lipid-cholesterol biosynthesis with increased risk for ischemic heart diseases.It could be considered a special type of metabolic diseases involving insulin resistance (IR) which accelerates fibrosis and modulation of lipid-cholesterol biosynthesis with increased risk for ischemic heart diseases .Increased prevalence of IR and type 2 diabetes mellitus extensively reported in HCV infections
This study will evaluate two novel approaches to improve access to Hepatitis C virus (HCV) confirmatory viremia testing. Both approaches are "Harm reduction site-based (HRS)" because HCV viremia testing will be initiated and test results will be provided at the HRSs. These approaches will be compared to the current standard of care (control) in which anti-HCV-positive individuals must travel to a HCV treatment centre for HCV viremia testing. The investigators hypothesize that improving access to viremia testing improves linkage to care and reduces loss to follow-up among those who screen anti-HCV-positive.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a daily, fixed-dose, 8-week course combination of Elbasvir/Grazoprevir in treatment-naïve, non-cirrhotic patients who are mono-infected with hepatitis C, genotype 4.
This is a multicenter, non-comparative, observational study that will recruit women with singleton pregnancy and chronic HCV infection to determine the natural history of chronic HCV in pregnancy and the rate of vertical transmission to their infants. All participants will be offered curative therapy with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (Epclusa ®) after delivery and the cessation of breastfeeding. Subjects may be enrolled at any time after conception up through 36 weeks gestation. The management of subjects in pregnancy will be in accordance with ACOG guidelines and individual clinical judgment, however testing will include, but not be limited to, testing for HCV infection, HIV infection, HBV infection, HSV infection, group B Streptococcal colonization, HCV genotype, HCV viral load, as well as assessment of hepatic and renal function. Subjects will be followed on a schedule that is determined by their obstetric care providers throughout their pregnancy. Following delivery, infants will be evaluated at 12, 24 and 48 weeks of age, with testing for HCV RNA to be obtained at each evaluation. Vertical transmission is defined as two positive HCV RNA PCR tests, at least one before the 48 week infant visit, and again at the 12-month follow-up infant visit.
Hepatitis C (HCV) is a major health problem amongst people who inject drugs (PWID) and have limited contact with health care services. Halfway houses (HH) serve to reintegrate former drug users into society. Strategies to eliminate HCV must focus on screening for HCV amongst HH. Linkage to care for PWID population is an issue globally. The aim is to determine the sero-prevalence, demographics, disease distribution and factors associated with the risk of HCV transmission amongst former drug users at Halfway Houses. The secondary aim would be to determine the best models of care that can be used to link these individuals to existing healthcare services in a pragmatic, randomised fashion Halfway Houses are invited to participate in a program of HCV education, point-of-care screening using Oraquick test and staging with Fibroscan® by a small mobile team of healthcare workers. A detailed survey regarding illicit drug injecting practices is performed. Those who are tested positive are referred to medical care. It is anticipated that the prevalence of Hepatitis C within the drug injecting population along with the stages of liver disease such that models for disease burden can be determined.
This study will determine the efficacy of PEG-Intron (SCH 54031) in participants with chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who have not been previously treated with interferon. Participants are randomized to receive one of three doses of PEG-Intron (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mg/kg) or Interferon Alfa-2B for 48 weeks. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PEG-Intron (compared to Interferon Alfa-2B) with respect to response based on loss of detectable HCV ribonucleic acid (HCV-RNA) and normalization of alanine transaminase (ALT) level after 24 weeks of therapy and at 24 weeks of follow-up.
EVERYONES HCV is a retrospective review of all previous Hepatitis C (HCV) testing and diagnosis in NHS Tayside. The aim of this study is to analyse and compare the different Hepatitis C diagnostic pathways with a view to determining the most cost effective combination of methods of diagnosing HCV infection in a typical developed world population.
Open label phase 2a study of two week treatment with CDI-31244 and sofosbuvir and veltapasvir followed by four week treatment of sofosbuvir and velpatasvir in individuals with chronic hepatitis C (HCV) genotype 1 (GT1) infection
The purpose of the study is to determine if statin can affect the clinical outcome of chronic hepatitis C patients receiving Sofosbuvir/Daclatasvir/Ribavirin combination
