Filter by:The circulation of the Hepatitis D Virus (HDV) has considerably diminished in Italy, secondary to the control of the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) with vaccination; this has led to the perception that HDV is vanishing and has reduced attention to the diagnosis of Hepatitis D. However, migratory fluxes from HDV endemic areas, fostered by labour-forces globalization, are increasingly reconstituting the reservoir of HDV in the country and hepatitis D has not yet vanished in native Italians but will remain an important medical issue for several years to come. As the epidemiologic and clinical features of HDV infection in migrant communities are largely unknown and the features of native Italians with long standing HDV infections have not been updated, this project intends to establish the contemporary epidemiological and medical context of HDV in immigrants in Italy and to determine the clinical characteristics and needs of the residual cohort of native HDV Italians, through the analysis of all HDV cases recruited in 12 months in a coordinated network of 35 Italian medical centers. The data will provide an appraisal of the burden of hepatitis D in the country and of its impact on the National Health System. They will present the paradigm of the current trend of HDV infection in high-income countries in the world.
The main goal of this study is to collect post marketing data from patients with chronic hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection who are treated with bulevirtide to describe the long-term effects of bulevirtide treatment and evaluate the safety of participants treated with bulevirtide.
This is a phase 2 trial in which participants with chronic hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection will receive VIR-2218 and/or VIR-3434 and be assessed for safety, tolerability, and efficacy
The aim of study is to evaluate the current prevalence of HDV infection, and comprehensively analyze the interaction between HDV and HBV infections in the era of NAs in Taiwan. Investigators plan to set up a platform for HDV positive patients in Taiwan to invite sites or hepatologists who are interested in this field.
Portal hypertension (PH) is one of the key drivers of clinical deteoration in patients with liver cirrhosis. It has been demonstrated that antiviral therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C infection leads to a decrease of PH and is associated with an improved outcome. Recently, Bulevirtide was approved for the treatment of patients coinfected with hepatitis B (HBV) and chronic hepatitis delta (HDV) infection, which helps to achieve viral supression in these patients. This study investigates the potential effects of viral supression on PH in patients with chronic HBV/HDV infection and liver cirrhosis.
Primary objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of sequential administration of P1101 and anti-PD1 in patient with chronic hepatitis B or D infection Secondary objectives: 1. To explore HBsAg loss and kinetics during the study period 2. To assess the anti-viral effect during the study period 3. To evaluate the rate of ALT normalization
This is a prospective, multicentric, non comparative study, with a retrospective data collection aiming at evaluating the efficacy and safety of bulevirtide in patients with chronic HBV/HDV co-infection with severe fibrosis injuries, or moderate fibrosis injuries associated with persistent increase of ALT.
Ezetimibe possesses pharmacophore features to inhibit NTCP, the receptor required for HBV and HDV hepatocyte entry that include two hydrophobes and one hydrogen bond acceptor. Therapy with Ezetimibe may lead to decline in hepatitis D virus levels. The aim of the study is to evaluate the utility of Ezetimibe in patients with chronic HDV infection
The treatment of choice for chronic hepatitis D is uncertain. The investigators hypothesize that pegylated interferon (IFN) alfa-2b in combination with ribavirin (RBV) may be effective in the treatment of chronic hepatitis D patients who are also infected by hepatitis B virus (HBV). The purpose of this study is to test this hypothesis. The investigators will use pegylated IFN alfa-2b in combination with RBV for the treatment of patients with dual chronic hepatitis D virus (HDV) and HBV infection. A 24-week course of combination therapy pegylated IFN+RBV will be used.
The proposed study aims to evaluate, investigate, and follow-up patients suffering from acute and chronic liver disease. The study will focus on understanding diseases affecting the liver. Patients participating in the study will first undergo a routine check-up as an outpatient. They will be asked to provide blood and urine samples for laboratory testing and will undergo an ultrasound of the liver. Ultrasound examinations use sound waves to determine the size and texture of the liver. After the initial visit subjects will be requested to follow-up once a year at the outpatient department for a similar check-up. Additional tests may be requested throughout the study to provide information for other research studies and individual consent will be requested. These tests may include liver biopsies, skin biopsies, and / or specialized blood, plasma, and lymphocyte examinations. Subjects that qualify for medications presently being studied may be offered the opportunity to benefit from experimental therapy.
