Filter by:This study seeks to implement and evaluate a data-driven case navigation system for hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment among persons who are either actively injecting drugs or who are receiving opioid substitution therapy (OST). The study will use data from a previously developed patient registry system to identify patients for study recruitment, and use monthly updates of registry data to organize and direct patient navigation services for those individuals assigned to the treatment group. Patients assigned to the control group will also be eligible to receive HCV treatment, but will otherwise receive usual care. This study has a parallel, randomized unblinded, case/control design in which eligible patients are assigned at baseline to either a registry-directed patient navigation system (case) or to usual care (control), characterized in terms of demographic and sub-population variables, and then compared after 12 months on two categories of outcomes; (1) attainment of care cascade milestones; and (2) treatment initiation, adherence, and virologic response. The study is designed and powered to answer two primary hypotheses (H1 & H2): - H1: As compared to those randomized to usual care (control), those randomized to the registry directed patient navigation arm (case) will be more likely to complete all pretreatment HCV care milestones as defined by a higher proportion completing all four pre-treatment care cascade outcomes. - H2: As compared to the control group, a significantly higher proportion of those randomized to the case group will achieve a sustained viral response.
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).
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-part study will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and antiviral activity (Part 3 only) of orally administered AL-611 in healthy volunteers (HV; Parts 1-2) and subjects with CHC (Part 3). Part 1: HV will receive 1 of 5 single ascending doses (SAD) of AL-611 Part 2: Eight HV from Cohort 3 in Part 1 are planned to receive a second single dose of AL-611 or placebo (as per their randomized assignment in Part 1) in a fed state after a washout period Part 3: Subjects with CHC infection will receive 1 of 3 planned multiple ascending doses (MAD)
An evaluation of the impact of Elbasvir and Grazoprevir (EBR/GZR) HCV therapy on the heart risk and bone health of HCV mono-infected and HIV/HCV co-infected patients.
This is a proof of concept, single center study for the donation of HCV-positive hearts to HCV negative recipient patients, with preemptive, interventional treatment with 12 weeks of commercially available DAA therapy to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.
Previous studies indicated that Granulocyte Macrophage-colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) could improve survival rate in patients with acute liver failure and obtain higher HBsAg seroconversion rate when in combination with peg-interferon for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. In this study, investigators will study the clinical effect of entecavir (ETV) plus GM-CSF in patients with CHB compared to ETV monotherapy.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the durability of Sustained virologic response (SVR) in participants who achieved SVR at last post-therapy visit of parent studies (LPVPS) with NCT Numbers NCT02569710 and NCT02765490.
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-part study to evaluate the relative oral bioavailability of a tablet formulation of AL-3778 (formerly NVR 3-778) administered under fasted and fed conditions (Parts 1 and 2) and the drug-drug interaction between AL-3778 and entecavir or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Part 3).
To address the need for more affordable hepatitis C virus (HCV) antivirals with high barriers to viral resistance and strategies to shorten the current treatment duration, the goal is to develop affordable therapeutic regimens to prevent HCV entry/spread and test the efficacy of those inhibitors for treating HCV infection. The investigators recently discovered that a major cholesterol uptake receptor is required for HCV entry into hepatocytes and that there is already an FDA-approved drug that inhibits cholesterol uptake by this receptor. Importantly the same drug also potently blocks HCV entry in human liver cells both in cell culture and in a small animal model. Further, looking back at people who were previously treated for HCV infection, the investigators found treatment response to be better (i.e. larger viral log reduction) in patients who happened to be taking ezetimibe (EZE). Hence, the objective of this study is to assess whether the FDA-approved drug (ezetimibe) is useful for the treatment of chronic HCV. The investigators predict that when administered as monotherapy ezetimibe will reduce HCV viremia perhaps allowing for viral clearance and that when included in combination treatment regimens that EZE will increase HCV decline resulting in faster viral clearance (i.e. shorter/cheaper direct-acting antiviral [DAA] therapy). To test these hypotheses, the investigators will execute the following aims: (1) Assess the efficacy of EZE monotherapy in chronically HCV infected and predict time to cure; (2) Assess the efficacy of EZE as an adjunct therapy in chronically HCV infected patients undergoing currently approved HCV DAA treatment.
This is a nonrandomized, multi-site, open-label trial to evaluate a novel two-drug combination regimen (uprifosbuvir [MK-3682] 450 mg + ruzasvir [RZR; MK-8408] 180 mg once daily [q.d.] for 12 weeks) in male and female treatment-naïve (TN) or treatment-experienced (TE) participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection genotype (GT) GT1, GT2, GT3, GT4, GT5, or GT6 who have not previously received HCV direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy. Cirrhotic (C) and non-cirrhotic (NC) participants with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection will be enrolled.
