Filter by:This was an efficacy and safety study of grazoprevir (MK-5172) in combination with elbasvir (MK-8742) in treatment-naive participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1, 4, or 6 infection. Participants were randomly assigned (3:1 ratio) to immediate treatment or deferred treatment (placebo control). The primary efficacy hypothesis was that the proportion of participants receiving combination therapy in the Immediate Treatment Arm who achieve sustained viral response at 12 weeks after the end of study treatment (SVR12) is superior to 73%.
In this study, participants with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 (GT1) who failed prior direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy will receive Grazoprevir (MK-5172) + Elbasvir (MK-8742) + Ribavirin (RBV) to evaluate sustained virologic response (SVR) using this drug combination.
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the noninferiority of Algeron in combination with ribavirin compared to PegIntron in combination with ribavirin in treatment of chronic hepatitis C in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 infected patients
This study will explore the relationship of different DEB025 doses in combination with RBV to pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic (i.e. viral load reduction) and safety profiles in chronic hepatitis C GT 2 and 3 patients who have previously failed interferon therapy or are intolerant or unable to take interferon
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of combination treatment with grazoprevir (MK-5172) + elbasvir (MK-8742) for cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic participants with chronic Genotype 1 (GT1) hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The primary study hypothesis is that the proportion of HCV GT1-infected CKD participants within the Immediate Treatment and Intensive Pharmacokinetics (PK) groups achieving a sustained viral response 12 weeks after the end of all study treatment (SVR12) will be >45%.
It is estimated that 350-400 million people have chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) all over the world. In china, 93 million individuals suffer from this chronic condition. Currently, seven medications are approved for the treatment of hepatitis B: two formulations of interferon and four nucleos(t)ide analogues. The Chinese population has one of the longer average life spans, and the size of the aged population has been increasing rapidly. As a result, the prevalence of elderly patients with HBV has increased, and the potential for development of cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma in such patients is real. Hence, treatment of elderly patients with HBV is an important issue. However, ADV or ETV has become first choice due to the more side effect of INF and the resistant of LAM and LdT. But treatment outcomes with ADV and ETV in elderly are not known yet. In this study, we will evaluate and compare the efficacy and tolerability of ADV and ETV between younger and older patients with HBV. The aims of the present study are (1)to assess the benefits of ADV or ETV therapy for elderly patients with chronic hepatitis B, and (2)to determine differences in the emergence rate of side effect.
This will be a multi-center study in Hong Kong. This is a retrospective-prospective study in HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B patients. HBeAg-negative patients on entecavir followed up in the liver clinics will be identified from the existing database. All patients had HBV DNA testing every 6 months as a clinic routine. Serum HBsAg levels will be tested in the residual serum samples at the pre-treatment and last follow-up visits. Eligible patients will be discussed on the plan of stopping entecavir therapy. All patients will have written informed consent before recruited into this study. All patients will be followed up for 12 months after stopping entecavir treatment. As entecavir is most commonly used antiviral drug in Hong Kong and in the Western countries, the investigators aim to investigate and validate the use of serum HBsAg quantification to guide the timing of stopping entecavir in HBeAg-negative patients. The results of this study will provide scientific evidence on the use of this new serum marker to predict sustained remission after stopping entecavir. In the long-run, it can improve patient compliance, reduce the need of long-term antiviral and reduce the drug cost in the management of HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B. All patients will stop entecavir according to the Asian Pacific guideline with written informed consent and close subsequent monitoring. In the protocol, there is a safety net for re-treatment. There will not be any invasive procedure. There is no major ethical issue.
This non-interventional clinical study will be conducted to prospectively collect serial plasma and serum samples from treatment naïve subjects with chronic HCV infection who are initiating sofosbuvir-based therapy. These samples will be used to estimate clinical utility endpoints for the Aptima HCV Quant Dx assay which is used an aid in the management of HCV-infected patients undergoing HCV antiviral therapy.
This is a multi-center, single-arm, open-label study on the virological response of chronic HBV infection to pegyinterferon-alfa-2a among patients who achieved HBeAg seroconversion on nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) treatment. The primary endpoint of this study is to investigate the sustained response (HBeAg seroconversion with HBV DNA <2000 IU/ml) to peginterferon at 24 weeks after the end of treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and antiviral effect of ABT-450/r and ABT-530 coadministered with and without Ribavirin in adults with genotype 3 HCV infection.
