Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the carnitine-orotate complex and biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate in the adjuvant therapy of chronic hepatitis D in real clinical practice: a prospective cohort study
A project to understand the determinants of health behaviour among those with chronic hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection, under the care of the viral hepatitis service at Kings College Hospital (KCH). This is to improve and implement pathways and patient information distribution to improve access to care in an ethnically diverse population living with HDV in the UK. Kings college hospital NHS Foundation Trust is uniquely placed and serves a large diverse population from areas such as pan pacific Asia, Eastern Europe and regions in Africa, where English is not their first language. This diversity is also seen in other London Hospitals but less so in other parts of the UK.
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-center study in patients with chronic HBV and HDV co-infection.
This is a retrospective, prospective, noninterventive, multicenter registry study. Patients diagnosed with HDV infection (based on positive HDV RNA) were included in this study and were followed up for at least 5 years to evaluate their disease progression and clinical outcomes (including death, liver transplantation, hepatocellular carcinoma [hcc], liver decompensation, and cirrhosis) during the 5-year follow-up period. All patients were followed up at least once a year after they were included in the study. It was in 2016 HDV infection first reported in China. Since January 1, 2016, all patients diagnosed with HDV infection can be enrolled in this study and evidence confirming the diagnosis (including but not limited to HDV RNA test reports and medical records, etc.) must be delivered. The main test results (including serum HDV RNA, ALT, and tests to determine the presence of liver cirrhosis, decompensation of liver function, and liver cancer such as B-ultrasound and FibroScan) of these patients each year from diagnosis to enrollment should be collected and filled in the case report form (CRF). Follow-up data of patients with serum anti-HDV positive and HDV RNA negative can be recorded and followed up on this platform, with informed consent of the patients is required. Patients whose serum HBV RNA turn positive during the follow-up period will be included in the follow-up cohort of the study.
In China, there is no recommendation for Hepatitis D virus (HDV) screening, but the fact is estimated that one-third of the world's population of individuals with chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection live in China while we do not know the prevalence of co-infection of HBV/HDV in China. So far, no nationwide study has been undertaken to evaluate the epidemiology of hepatitis D, on the other hand, reports of HDV infection rate in different regions of China are not consistent because of the different detection methods and detection objects. Here, we plan to test HDV-Ab/RNA for 5000 HBsAg reactive samples from 10 major tertiary hospital and to know the prevalence and disease burden of HDV in China.
Study is to 1. Understand the pattern of hepatitis delta screening among medical providers for Asian patients with chronic hepatitis B 2. Determine the proportion of Asian hepatitis B patients who have been screened and who have chronic hepatitis delta 3. Determine the pattern of hepatitis delta screening after education of medical providers on hepatitis delta
Development of preclinical translational models for chronic liver tumors and diseases study, such as spheroids cultured in autologous medium and murine xenograft models to test the efficacy of new therapeutic strategies.
Viral hepatitis B, C and Δ represent a global public health problem for which France was very early mobilized. Despite this, in its foreword, the Dhumeaux report on "Management of people infected with hepatitis B or hepatitis C viruses" identifies a residual area of weakness in this care that is the incomplete regional epidemiological data in the Overseas Territories. The specific ethno-socio-cultural characteristics of these territories make it difficult to transpose data from the mainland France. This study aims at improving our knowledge on the characteristics of patients with hepatitis B, C and Δ in Reunion Island, their follow-up, their evolution and complications.
