Filter by:The purpose of this study is to confirm that combination of Narlaprevir, Ritonavir and Daclatasvir is safe and highly effective regimen in treatment-naїve patients with chronic hepatitis C (HCV) genotype 1b infection.
HCV infection is treated with oral drugs, termed as 'direct-acting anti-viral agents' (DAAs). In India, four DAAs are available (sofosbuvir [SOF], daclatasvir [DCV], ledipasvir [LDV] and velpatasvir [VEL]). Globally, DAA based regimens have obtained excellent rates of cure. Cure of HCV infection is defined as undetectable HCV RNA 12 weeks after stopping drugs, also referred to as sustained virological response at week 12 (SVR12). Using these DAA based treatment regimens, a small number (up to 5%) of people fail to achieve SVR12 and HCV RNA reappear after a few weeks of stopping the drugs (virological relapse). Data on management of virological relapse are extremely limited, especially in genotype 3, and no guidelines exist regarding re-treatment options for such group. Hence, we plan to re-treat such people using what appear to be the best combination treatment in each situation and to review our experience over time. Participants with chronic HCV infection who relapsed following standard DAA-based treatment regimen will be invited to participate. We propose to re-treat them with the anti-HCV drug combination which appears to be the most suited to his/her clinical profile, based on the current empiric knowledge - the choice of drugs will be based on HCV genotype, the previous treatment regimen and the presence/absence of liver cirrhosis, etc. During anti-HCV treatment, participants will be given expected standard of care and HCV RNA will be tested at 4-week intervals starting from week 4 and till RNA becomes undetectable, and then at the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the treatment was stopped - as is the usual practice during such treatment. Relevant clinical, laboratory and treatment details will be recorded in a pre-defined data collection form. Treatment outcome will be categorized as success (SVR12), treatment failure (any detectable HCV RNA at the end of 24 weeks treatment duration) or relapse (HCV RNA negative at the end of treatment, but positive at 12 weeks after stopping treatment). If possible, a 5-ml blood specimen will be collected before starting re-treatment from all participants; in addition, another similar specimen will be collected following the treatment in those in whom the re-treatment is unsuccessful. These will be stored and may be used in future for virological studies to look for drug-resistance variations.
The Mukh-Mantri Punjab Hepatitis C Relief Fund (MMPHCRF) is a public health initiative for prevention and control of hepatitis C in the Punjab state, India. The efficacy of decentralised public health services and safety of 12- or 24-weeks of sofosbuvir (SOF) + ledipasvir (LDV) or SOF + daclatasvir (DCV) with or without ribavirin (RBV) in the treatment of pediatric chronic hepatitis C will be assessed
Hepatitis c associated glomerulonephritis is an immune complex disease that occurs in 21% of patients who have HCV infection.
The Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic Study of Chronic Hepatitis C Treatment Drug Yimitasvir in Healthy Adults Subjects.
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
This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label control trial of two arms conducted at 10 centres in China.The aim was to investigate whether sequential combination therapy with Thymosin alpha 1 and entecavir is superior to continuous ETV monotherapy in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients with previous long-term entecavir therapy (≥ 2 years), and to select the optimal patients who may benefit from sequential combination therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of JNJ-440 in healthy and Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) participants after single and multiple doses; and to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) of JNJ-440 in healthy participants and in CHB participants following single and multiple dose regimens, administered alone (healthy participants and CHB participants).
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the 12 week treatment regimens of inarigivir soproxil plus tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) or commercially available nucleoside/nucleotide (NUC) in adults with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), to evaluate the antiviral activity of 12 weeks of inarigivir soproxil plus TAF versus TAF alone in viremic CHB participants (Groups 1-3, 5), and to evaluate the antiviral activity of 12 weeks of inarigivir soproxil with commercially available NUC(s) in virally suppressed CHB participants (Group 4).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of ASC16 after 3-single dose(50mg、100mg、200mg) or fixed continuous dose(200mg) in healthy volunteers.
