Filter by:This study is a phase IV, open-label, single arm, multicentre study whose aim is to assess whether interferon-free and ribavirin-free Direct Acting Antiviral (DAA) Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) therapy with grazoprevir/elbasvir, will be feasible for the treatment of People who inject drugs (PWID) with recent injecting drug use or people receiving opioid substitution therapy and chronic HCV genotype 1 or 4 infection.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ALN-HBV in healthy adult volunteers and patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. In addition, the study will assess antiviral efficacy of ALN-HBV in patients with HBV.
Normal healthy volunteer (NHV) participants will enroll sequentially into a total of 6 escalating dose levels (6 subjects per dose level), randomized to receive a single dose of ARC-521 Injection or placebo. The maximum study duration for NHVs is approximately 21 weeks. Hepatitis B e Antigen (HBeAg)-negative participants with (CHB) will enroll sequentially into 3 dose levels (8 patients per dose level) to receive multiple doses of open label ARC-521 Injection. For each CHB participant the maximum study duration is approximately 37 weeks.
This multicenter, open-label, uncontrolled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of increasing the dose of peginterferon alfa-2a (Pegasys) in participants with Genotype 1/4/5/6 CHC and an early non-response to a standard course of peginterferon alfa-2a plus ribavirin. The study will consist of screening (4 weeks), treatment (32 weeks), and follow-up (24 weeks).
This study is an open-label, multi-center trial to evaluate the novel 2-drug regimen of uprifosbuvir (MK-3682) 450 mg and ruzasvir (MK-8408) 60 mg in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT)1, GT2, GT3, GT4, GT5, or GT6 infection. The impact of the study treatment regimen on the percentage of participants with undetectable HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA] 12 weeks after completing study treatment (SVR12) will be evaluated.
Chronic HBV patients will receive 9 doses of open-label ARC-520 once every 4 weeks and be evaluated for safety and efficacy.
There still remains the question if hepatitis C eradication with all oral therapy will lead to a regression or cure of the low grade lymphoma. Thus, the hypothesis of this study is that oral HCV therapy will lead to a high rate of hepatitis C eradication which will correlate with a reduction of the size and extent of low-grade lymphoma. The hypothesis of this study is that subjects with hepatitis C,regardless of genotype, who have low grade lymphoma, when treated for hepatitis C without pegylated interferon will have a regression of low grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. In this pilot study we will evaluate the effect of Sofosbuvir/ledipasvir or sofosbuvir/ribavirin based antiviral therapy on the course of a subset of HCV-related low grade B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma Primary Objective This study will assess the safety, as measured by adverse events, in subjects receiving hepatitis C treatment. Secondary Objective The secondary objective of this study is to assess the rate of overall response of B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma defined as either as partial response or complete response according to revised international working group criteria for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Primary Endpoint Safety and tolerability of sofosbuvir/ledipasvir or sofosbuvir/ribavirin in subjects with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma will be assessed by number of adverse events and serious adverse events. In addition, the study will assess the number of subjects who had to stop treatment due to adverse events or serious adverse events. The study will also examine the number of subjects in which treatment for lymphoma had to be given due to clinical progression. Secondary Endpoints The secondary endpoint(s) of this study is to (1) Assess the rate of overall response of B-cell Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma defined as either as partial response or complete response according to revised international working group criteria for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. (2) Determine the rate of sustained viral response in subjects with low-grade lymphoma.
Data on the progression of liver fibrosis in patients co-infected with HIV taking effective suppressive antiretroviral therapy with no fibrosis or mild-to-moderate fibrosis at baseline are scarce. This uncertainty is reflected in lack of clear guidance on the need for earlier (than F3-F4) treatment in co-infected patients. Within our hepatitis C/HIV co-infection project in Cambodia, the investigators have the opportunity to monitor for short-term fibrosis progression in a cohort of co-infected patients with initial no-to-moderate fibrosis being identified during another ongoing study (HCV-Epi) and contribute relevant data to aid the risk/benefit analysis of postponing HCV treatment in HIV/HCV co-infected patients with initial fibrosis stage F0-F2. The HCV-Monitoring study is a mono-centric prospective cohort study proposing a standardized follow-up (clinical, biological and imaging) to monitor for progression of hepatitis C disease in all patients with HIV infection (on anti-retroviral treatment or not) of Sihanouk Hospital Center of Hope (Phnom Penh, Cambodia) who have chronic HCV infection with GT-1, -2, -3 or -6 but are not considered in immediate need of HCV treatment. All adult HIV-infected patients of the cohort (on ART or not yet on ART) of Sihanouk hospital Center of Hope who are identified during the HCV-Epi study having chronic HCV infection (all genotypes) and considered not in immediate need of HCV treatment (= Fibrosis stages F0-F2 and no clinical signs of extra-hepatic disease) will be considered for inclusion and invited to participate. Approximately 70 HCV/HIV co-infected patients with no-to-moderate hepatic fibrosis will be enrolled in this study. Beyond the baseline visit (HCV-Epi), follow-up visits are planned at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. These patient visits will comprise of a history taking and physical examination focused on hepatic disease and blood sampling for basic hematologic and hepatic function parameters. Additionally, patients will be referred every year for ultrasound and transient elastography measurements and sampling for some additional liver function tests and measurement of HCV-RNA viral load.
This is a randomized, multicenter, 2-part, open-label trial of the combination regimen of grazoprevir (GZR [MK-5172]; 100mg), uprifosbuvir (UPR [MK-3682]; 450 mg) and ruzasvir (RZR [MK-8408]; 60 mg) with and without Ribavirin (RBV) in cirrhotic (C) or non-cirrhotic (NC) participants infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) previously failing a direct-acting antiviral regimen (DAA). The combination regimen, referred to as MK-3682B, will be administered as two fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets, given once-daily. The study will evaluate the efficacy of MK-3682B with or without RBV as assessed by the proportion of participants achieving Sustained Virologic Response 12 weeks (SVR12) after the end of all study therapy.
People who are infected with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) have a great chance of being cured of the infection when they are treated with sofosbuvir. However, in some instances, treatment with sofosbuvir-containing therapy does not work. It is not known if people respond to retreatment with sofosbuvir, after it did not work the first time. There is an important need to understand retreatment options in those instances. This clinical trial was done to study the response to two different regimens, ledipasvir/sofosbuvir and ledipasvir/sofosbuvir with ribavirin, and to see if they are safe and well-tolerated in HCV-infected persons whose previous treatment with sofosbuvir had failed.
