Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis C"

Randomized controlled multicenter study The response of reducing dose of peginterferon alfa-2a in Koreans with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 IL28B polymorphism in Koreans with CHC

This is a single-center, randomized, two part, double-blind, crossover study in healthy adult subjects to assess the effect of a single dose of GSK2336805 150mg on cardiac function comparing with placebo using echocardiography as a primary assessment modality

the aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of BI 201335 given for 12 or 24 weeks in combination with PegIFN/RBV given for 24-48 weeks, according to re-randomisation of Early Treatment Success (ETS) patients at 24 weeks to stop PegIFN/RBV or continue PegIFN/RBV until week 48. If no ETS, then PegIFN/RB for 48 weeks, in HCV treatment-naive or relapsers patients coinfected with HIV

Drug users account for a disproportionately large burden of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, HCV treatment adherence rates in drug users may be suboptimal in patients who use drugs regularly during HCV treatment. Because HCV treatment is most effective when patients adhere to at least 80% of the prescribed treatment regimen, interventions to improve HCV treatment adherence need to be developed and evaluated. The investigators designed the HCV DOT trial to test the efficacy of two versions of modified directly observed HCV therapy provided on-site at a methadone clinic. The primary objective of this trial is to determine whether enhanced DOT with both pegylated interferon alfa-2a plus ribavirin (PEG/RBV-DOT) is more efficacious than standard DOT with weekly provider-administered pegylated interferon (PEG-DOT) and self-administered ribavirin for increasing adherence and improving HCV treatment outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that PEG/RBV-DOT is associated with increased adherence and rates of sustained viral response compared with PEG-DOT.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a leading cause of death and illness in people with HIV-1. At the time the study was designed, the standard treatment for people with HIV-1 and HCV coinfection included two drugs: pegylated-interferon alfa 2b (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of giving boceprevir (BOC) together with standard treatment in treating HCV infection in people with HIV-1 and HCV coinfection.

Background: - GS-7977, GS-5885, GS-9669, and GS-9451 are new drugs for treating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. GS-7977 may help treat the infection when used with other treatments like interferon therapy. GS-5885, and GS-9669, and GS-9451 also lower the amount of HCV in the body. Researchers want to see whether GS-7977 can be combined with any of the other three drugs to treat HCV infection. Some participants will take GS-7977 and GS-5885. Others will take GS-7977, GS-5885 and GS-9669 or GS-7977, GS-5885 and GS-9451. Objectives: - To see whether GS-7977 with GS-5885 alone or in combination with either GS-9669 or 9451 can be used to treat HCV infection. Eligibility: Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic HCV infection and have never been treated for it. Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic HCV infection and have not responded to interferon therapy. Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic HCV infection with advanced liver disease and have never been treated for HCV Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood samples will be collected. A liver biopsy may also be performed. Some participants will take the two study drugs and some will take three study drugs. Those who take GS-7977 and GS-5885 will have one daily tablet named fixed dose combination or FDC. Those who take GS-7977 and CS-9669 will have three daily tablets taken once daily. Those who take GS-7977 and GS-5885 and GS-9451 will take 2 pills once a day. GS-7977 and GS-5885 will be combined in one pill and GS-9451 will be in another pill. Treatment will be monitored with frequent blood tests. These tests will check liver function and the level of HCV infection. Participants may have other blood tests as needed for treatment. Participants will have 4, 6 or 12 weeks of treatment depending on which study drugs are scheduled to take. After they complete their schedule, they will stop treatment with the study drugs. They may also have another liver biopsy. Participants will have regular follow-up visits over the next 48 weeks. They will have physical exams and provide blood samples....

This study is designed to evaluate the potential for an effect of Ritonavir (Norvir®) or omeprazole (Prilosec®) on the pharmacokinetics of samatasvir and to assess the safety and tolerability of the study drugs when administered alone and in combination in healthy participants.

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) in Japanese participants with chronic genotype 2 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MP-424 with PEG-IFN Alfa-2a and RBV in patients with genotype 1 hepatitis C, who are naïve to its treatment or relapsed after previous treatment.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MP-424 with IFN beta and RBV in patients with genotype 1/2 hepatitis C, who are treatment-naïve or have received its treatment before.
