Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis"

The study is a 'pilot study' to assess the effect of a mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) intervention on patients with autoimmune liver disease specifically autoimmune hepatitis type I. MBSR is a standardized intervention that has shown benefit in addiction disorders and other psychiatric disorders. There has been no study evaluating or showing the benefit of the use of MBSR in autoimmune liver disease. With published data showing the evidence of an association of stress and relapse in autoimmune hepatitis, it is hypothesized that such an intervention such as MBSR may have therapeutic effect in patients with autoimmune liver disease.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 8 and 12 weeks of treatment with a fixed dose combination (FDC) of elbasvir (EBR) 50 mg + grazoprevir (GZR) 100 mg (i.e., MK-5172A) as assessed by the percentage of participants with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 4 infection that achieve sustained virologic response (HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA] < Lower Limit of Quantification [LLOQ]) 12 weeks after the end of study therapy (SVR12). This study also evaluated the safety and tolerability of EBR/GZR.

In the medical literature there case reports that Harvoni improves symptoms in patients with PCT. However, this has never been systematically tested. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to assess whether Harvoni alone is an effective therapy of active PCT in patients with Chronic Hepatitis C.

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of vesatolimod (formerly GS-9620) in adults with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection who are currently not being treated.

The purpose of this phase 3 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABT-493/ABT-530 in comparison to sofosbuvir plus ribavirin for 12 weeks in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Genotype 2 (GT2) infected participants.

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed dose combination (FDC) plus ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naive adults with chronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy (sustained virological response 12 weeks after end-of-treatment [SVR12]) of 12-week course of an interferon-free regimen combining sofosbuvir and weight-dosed ribavirin (genotype 2), or sofosbuvir and ledipasvir (genotype 1 or 4) in treatment-naïve patients infected with HCV genotype 1, 2 or 4 in West and Central Africa Secondary Objectives: To estimate the study treatment SVR24 rate To evaluate the clinical and biological tolerance of study treatment To describe HCV kinetics under HCV treatment, and identify associated factors To describe the evolution of HIV disease under HCV treatment in HVC-HIV co-infected patients To describe the changes of liver fibrosis based on non-invasive tests between treatment initiation, week 24, and week 36 after treatment, and estimate its association with SVR12 or SVR24 To identify factors associated with SVR12 and SVR24 (including HIV status) To evaluate the performance of a nanodevice for rapid diagnosis of HCV viral load and genotypying and for assessing response to treatment (SVR12 and SVR24) Facilitate the detection and treatment of those infected with HCV by supporting national initiatives for access to strategies without interferon To set up a HCV clinical research network across French and English-speaking African countries, able to run large-scale comparative randomized clinical trials in a near future.

At least 1 dose of BMS-791325 can be identified which is safe, well tolerated, and efficacious when combined with peg-interferon alfa-2a (pegIFNα-2a)/ribavirin (RBV) for the treatment of treatment-naïve, chronically-infected hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 subjects

This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of danoprevir (RO5190591) plus ritonavir as compared to danoprevir alone or placebo plus ritonavir in patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 receiving Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and ribavirin. Patients in cohorts will be randomized to receive either oral doses of danoprevir, or danoprevir plus ritonavir, or placebo plus ritonavir. All patients will receive Pegasys (180mcg sc once weekly) plus ribavirin (1000-1200mg/day po), with the option to continue this treatment after completion of study drug treatment. Anticipated time on study treatment is up to 12 weeks.

Randomized, double blind study comparing the efficacy of pegylated interferon-alfa2a plus placebo versus pegylated interferon-alfa2a plus tenofovir for the treatment of chronic delta hepatitis. 70 Patients will be randomized 1:1 into the two groups. Treatment duration: 96 weeks. Follow-up: 24 weeks. Long-term-follow-up: until week 358.
