Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis C"

Hypothesis: the Telaprevir(TVR) plasma levels (750 mg q8h or 1125 mg/12h )will not be affected when co-administered with un-boosted Atazanavir (ATV) 200 mg q12h plus two analogues (NRTIs) in HCV/HIV-co-infected patients.

Background: - Present treatment for hepatitis C includes the use of a weekly injection and two different pills. This treatment is associated with serious side effects. Drugs that can be taken by mouth and cure HCV infection without serious side effects would be a great help to the large number of people infected with HCV. GS-7977 and GS-5885 are new medications being developed to treat the hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. They are still being researched and are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. They are being developed as treatment for hepatitis C as a single pill taken once a day. Objectives: - To determine whether a combination of the two study drugs can safely and effectively treat HCV infection in people with HIV infection and who do not have cirrhosis of the liver. Eligibility: - Individuals who have HIV infection and have liver disease caused by infection with HCV. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood samples will be collected. Urine samples will be collected from participants who might become pregnant. If a participant has not had a liver biopsy in the past 3 years, one will be required. Participants will take one pill daily for 12 weeks. This pill will be a combination of the two study drugs. Treatment will be monitored with frequent clinic visits and blood tests over a total of 60 weeks.

GSK2878175 is a site IV NS5B non-nucleoside inhibitor (NNI) being developed for the treatment of chronic HCV infection. This study represents the first administration of GSK2878175 in humans to define safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) following single and repeat doses of GSK2878175 in healthy subjects. This is a Phase 1, randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to determine the safety, tolerability, and PK profile of GSK2878175 in single (Part 1) and repeat doses (Part 2) in healthy subjects. In addition the study will explore the effect of a moderate (30%) fat meal on single dose PK endpoints in healthy subjects.

Background: - Some people who have chronic hepatitis C do not respond to the usual treatment with peginterferon and ribavirin. New chronic hepatitis treatments are being developed that may work better for different people. The treatments will look at how specific genes interact with the drugs. Researchers want to see how well these new drugs work in people whose chronic hepatitis C has not responded or only partly responded to the usual treatment drugs. Objectives: - To compare new treatments for people with chronic hepatitis C. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic hepatitis C that has not responded to standard treatments. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and urine samples will be collected. Liver scans and a biopsy will be taken before the start of treatment. Participants will be separated into two groups. One group will have the new treatment drugs (assunaprevir and daclatasvir). The second group will have these two drugs as well as peginterferon and ribavirin. All participants will have an initial 4-day hospital stay with regular blood tests to see how the start of the treatment works. The first group will take the new study drug tablets daily for 24 weeks. Those who do not respond to this treatment will also start to take peginterferon and ribavirin, and the treatment will continue for 24 weeks after starting the additional drugs. The second group will take all four drugs according to the standard dosing schedule for 24 weeks. Treatment will be monitored with frequent blood tests. Liver scans, biopsies, and other tests will be performed as directed by the study doctors. Participants will have 24 weeks of regular followup visits.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy of treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) therapy at the time of liver transplantation and through 4 weeks posttransplant in adults with genotype 1 or 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who are undergoing primary liver transplantation.

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) plus ribavirin (RBV) or LDV/SOF plus GS-9669 in treatment-naive or treatment-experienced participants with chronic genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. A total of 90 participants are planned to be enrolled in the study for 8 weeks of treatment, approximately 60 having had prior treatment with a regimen containing pegylated interferon (PEG) and RBV for ≥ 12 weeks. Randomization will be stratified by treatment-naive versus treatment-experienced and by HCV genotype (1a versus 1b).

The purpose of this study is to estimate the difference in the efficacy between a 16-week treatment regimen of boceprevir (BOC) in combination with peg-intron alpha 2b (P) plus ribavirin (R) (BOC + PR) and a 28-week treatment regimen of BOC + PR in previously untreated participants with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1 in Asia who achieve undetectable hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA).

GSK2878175 is a site IV NS5B non-nucleoside inhibitor (NNI) being developed for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of GSK2878175, at different doses in men and women infected with chronic hepatitis C virus. The study will investigate how much of the drug gets into the blood stream and how long the body takes to get rid of it. The study will also investigate if GSK2878175 has any important side effects. The study will also measure what effect GSK2878175 has on the hepatitis C virus infection after taking the study medication for 2 days. Approximately 44 people will take part in this study. Depending on the type of chronic hepatitis C infection a subject will be enrolled into 1 of 4 groups randomly. Each group will participate in one dosing session. One dosing session consists of GSK2878175 or a placebo (sugar pill) given once per day for 2 days. Group A, B, and C is made up of 8 participants per group. In each of these groups 6 participants will receive GSK2878175 and 2 participants will receive placebo. Group D is made up of 20 participants. 15 participants will receive GSK2878175 and 5 participants will receive placebo. The treatment groups will be dosed in sequence. Group A will be the first to take the study medication, then Group B, and so on. The plan is to dose subjects in Group A with 10 mg, Group B with 30 mg, Group C with 60 mg, and Group D with 60 mg of GSK2878175 or placebo. The next treatment group's actual dose will be decided after looking at the results from the previous group. The doses may therefore be higher or lower than planned depending on the previous group's results. The number of participants enrolled in the next group may also change depending on the results from the previous group.

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy of sofosbuvir (SOF)/ledipasvir (LDV) fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet with or without ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive or treatment-experienced Japanese participants with chronic genotype 1 HCV infection. Participants receive 12 weeks of treatment and continue assessments during a 24-week posttreatment follow-up period.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of treatment with ABT-450 co-formulated with ritonavir and ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267) and ABT-333; 3-DAA regimen, with or without ribavirin (RBV) in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1 (HCV GT1) infection.
