Filter by:This is a randomized, multicenter, 2-part, open-label trial of the combination regimen of grazoprevir (GZR [MK-5172]; 100mg), uprifosbuvir (UPR [MK-3682]; 450 mg) and ruzasvir (RZR [MK-8408]; 60 mg) with and without Ribavirin (RBV) in cirrhotic (C) or non-cirrhotic (NC) participants infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) previously failing a direct-acting antiviral regimen (DAA). The combination regimen, referred to as MK-3682B, will be administered as two fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets, given once-daily. The study will evaluate the efficacy of MK-3682B with or without RBV as assessed by the proportion of participants achieving Sustained Virologic Response 12 weeks (SVR12) after the end of all study therapy.
People who are infected with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) have a great chance of being cured of the infection when they are treated with sofosbuvir. However, in some instances, treatment with sofosbuvir-containing therapy does not work. It is not known if people respond to retreatment with sofosbuvir, after it did not work the first time. There is an important need to understand retreatment options in those instances. This clinical trial was done to study the response to two different regimens, ledipasvir/sofosbuvir and ledipasvir/sofosbuvir with ribavirin, and to see if they are safe and well-tolerated in HCV-infected persons whose previous treatment with sofosbuvir had failed.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks with or without ribavirin (RBV) in participants without cirrhosis, and LDV/SOF FDC for 12 weeks with RBV or LDV/SOF FDC for 24 weeks without RBV in participants with cirrhosis.
This study aims to identify the innate and adaptive immune response to zoster vaccination. Half of the participants will be individuals with chronic hepatitis C, while the other half with healthy volunteers.The innate immune signature elicited by Zoster vaccination will be characterized by RNA-seq analysis of pre- and post-vaccination RNA from whole blood. We will compare fold changes in gene expression profiles pre- versus post-vaccination in each individual, as well as between the two arms of the study. RNA-seq will be used to assess innate immune activation by evaluating the changes to the expression levels of interferon-stimulated genes pre- and post-vaccination. Adaptive immune response will be determined by the traditional correlates of protection used in previous Zoster clinical studies in addition to flow cytometry24. Correlates of protection include antibody response, interferon gamma production and the frequency of responder cells post- vaccination24. For antibody production, we will perform Zoster glycoprotein ELISA (gpELISA) targeting IgG/IgM. The number and frequency of responder cells will be characterized by flow cytometry.
Today's mobile devices (especially smartphones) are powerful ways to communicate new information to medical researchers. For this study, researchers at Boston Children's Hospital are asking people with hepatitis C to make use of their smartphones to help report information about themselves that may improve how hepatitis C is treated. This study uses a free app called C Tracker that can be installed from the Apple App Store onto the participants iPhone. The main goal of this research study is to use this app to report hepatitis C related health information to the researchers who are conducting this study. The investigators will ask participants about their health,activities, medications, and ways in which hepatitis C has impacted you. This information will be reported anonymously, which means that the researchers doing the study won't know who the participants are.
This Registry will enroll adolescent and pediatric participants who received at least one Gilead Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) direct acting antiviral (DAA) while participating in a Gilead-sponsored chronic hepatitis C clinical trial. The primary objective of this Registry is to determine the long-term safety of anti-HCV regimens in the pediatric population. Secondary objectives of this Registry are to determine whether subsequent detection of HCV RNA in participants who relapse following sustained virologic response (SVR) represents the re-emergence of pre-existing virus, the development of resistance mutations, or whether it is due to re-infection, and to characterize resistance mutations and the persistence of resistance mutations in pediatric participants who did not achieve SVR. Once enrolled, participants will be followed for up to 5 years.
This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, first-in-human, 3-part study in which the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of orally administered AL-704 will be assessed in healthy adult subjects and in adult subjects with CHC infection. Part 1: Healthy adult subjects will receive one of 5 single ascending oral doses (SAD) of AL-704 ranging from 100 mg to 1,500 mg (Cohorts 1 to 5). Within each cohort subjects will be randomized to receive either AL-704 or placebo (n=8 per cohort; 6 assigned to AL-704 and 2 assigned to placebo), in a fasted state. The planned dose-escalation scheme may be changed based on the emerging PK and safety data. Two additional cohorts (Cohorts 6 and 7) may be enrolled for evaluation of additional doses at the discretion of the Sponsor and Investigator, based on the emerging pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and the presence of an acceptable safety profile. Part 2: To assess the food effect on pharmacokinetics, 8 healthy subjects from one full Part 1 cohort who received a single dose of AL-704 or placebo in a fasted state, will receive the same single dose of AL-704 or placebo in a fed state in Part 2 after a washout period of 7-14 days (depending on PK results). It is expected that Cohort 3 of Part 1 (600 mg dose) will be selected, however this depends on the evaluation of available PK and safety data from Part 1 of the study. Part 3: The following cohorts of 10 adult subjects each, with CHC infection, will be evaluated. Subjects with CHC genotype 1 infection (Cohorts 8 to 10) and subjects with CHC genotype 3 infection (Cohort 11) will be randomized to receive AL-704 or placebo for 7 consecutive days (n=10 per cohort, 8 assigned to AL-704 and 2 assigned to placebo) in a fed state. The treatment is anticipated to be administered in a once daily dose regimen or a twice daily dose regimen. The dose and dose regimen to be administered will be determined by the Sponsor depending on the PK and safety outcomes of previous cohorts.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r), with or without dasabuvir (DSV) coadministered with or without ribavirin (RBV) for 12 or 24 weeks in adult patients with genotype 1 or genotype 4 chronic HCV infection and treated early stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma with compensated cirrhosis.
Treatment protocol to see if people with hepatitis C (HCV) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are treated with Harvoni for 12 weeks have improvements in their kidney disease.
The study is a single centre, single arm, open-label, proof of concept study enrolling 20 adult primary liver transplant recipients with genotype 1 HCV infection. Subjects will receive Sofosbuvir (SOF) and Ledipasvir (LDV) starting at time of liver transplantation (OLT) and continues for 12 weeks. Subjects will be receive 24 week post-treatment follow up.
