Filter by:This three-part, Phase 1 protocol will be the first clinical study of ABI-H2158. Parts 1 and 2 will be a Phase 1a, dose-ranging assessment of ABI-H2158 in healthy adult volunteers. If the dose-related safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ABI-H2158 in healthy volunteers are deemed satisfactory, then the study will advance to Part 3, a Phase 1b, dose-ranging assessment of ABI-H2158 in non-cirrhotic, CHB patients.
This is a Phase IV, open label, single center study of OBV/PTV/r + DSV +/- RBV for 12 or 24 weeks for the treatment of chronic HCV-1 infection in a real world urban clinical setting.
Chronic hepatitis C infection (CHC) is usually asymptomatic; nevertheless, there are studies that show that up to two thirds of patients may present some type of extrahepatic manifestation. The most frequent extrahepatic manifestation is type II mixed cryoglobulinemia (MCG-II) and clinically the most common presentation is leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) with palpable purpura that affects the lower extremities. It is estimated that up to 80% of MCG-II cases are due to CHC. Also, previous studies have demonstrated that CHC prevalence is higher in patients with autoimmune diseases compared with general population. Therefore, if vasculitis is an extrahepatic manifestation of CHC, then the prevalence of CHC infection in this group of patients could be higher than the prevalence reported in general population. The aim of the study is to know the prevalence of CHC, determined by serological rapid test for hepatitis C screening, then all positive cases will be confirmed by quantitative viral load, in patients who consult primarily to a rheumatology department for "vasculitis" or other potential hepatitis C extrahepatic manifestations (rheumatological conditions).
The hepatitis C virus is a major cause of chronic liver diseases, including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, and infects approximately 3 % of the world population (150-170 million). It is estimated that approximately 80 % of patients with acute hepatitis C fail to eliminate the virus and become chronically infected Hepatitis C virus infection is strongly associated with the dysregulation of glucose homoeostasis such as insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Despite these findings of insulin resistance development via direct effects on insulin signalling pathway, the complex relationship between intrahepatic Hepatitis C virus infection and extrahepatic insulin resistance remains elusive. One of the countries most affected by Hepatitis C virus is Egypt. The Egyptian Demographic and Health Surveys measured antibody prevalence among the adult population aged 15-59 years at 10.0% in 2015—substantially higher than global levels. Several micro ribonucleic acids have been determined to play a key role in regulating viral replication and pathogenesis during infection. micro ribonucleic acid-122 expression is enriched in the liver, accounting for approximately 70 % of the total micro ribonucleic acid population in normal adult hepatocytes. Moreover, a particularly intriguing function of micro ribonucleic acid-122 involves its role in the Hepatitis C virus replication cycle. Antagonism of micro ribonucleic acid-122 not only reduces viral replication but also reduces Hepatitis C virus propagation by decreasing the expression of enzymes involved in lipid metabolism, which can enhance Hepatitis C virus replication in cell culture models.
This is a phase 1/2 study in which healthy adult subjects and subjects with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection will receive VIR-2218 or placebo and will be assessed for safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity (only in subjects with chronic HBV). In the single ascending dose (SAD) part, Part A, healthy adult subjects will receive one dose of VIR-2218 or placebo, administered subcutaneously (SC). In the multiple ascending dose (MAD) parts, Part B & Part C, subjects with chronic HBV infection will receive two doses of VIR-2218 or placebo every 4 weeks administered SC.
All patients with chronic HBeAg negative hepatitis B treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues, who discontinue treatment based in the criteria outlined in the EASL hepatitis B guidelines shall be included in the present study. The aim is to evaluate the clinical outcome (virological relapse, HBsAg decline) and associated virological and immunological parameters.
This study is a post-marketing surveillance of Besivo in participants with chronic hepatitis B.
The Safety, Antiviral Activity, and pharmacokinetics of Morphothiadine Mesilate Capsules/Ritonavir Tablets in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of selgantolimod and to evaluate the antiviral activity of selgantolimod in adult participants with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) who are viremic and not currently being treated.
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
