Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis C, Chronic"

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and effectiveness of peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin therapy in Korean chronic hepatitis C patients.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of valacyclovir in patients who have chronic hepatitis C, antibodies to herpes simplex type 1 infection but do not have antibodies to herpes simplex type 2 infection. Herpes simplex type 1 infection commonly causes cold sores or fever blisters, also known as herpes labialis, but most persons do not have any symptoms at all. Valacyclovir is a medication which is approved by the Food and Drug administration to treat herpes labialis. Valacyclovir has not been approved to treat chronic hepatitis C infection. The study will take 16 weeks. Participants will be assigned to take either the study drug, valacyclovir, or a sugar pill that looks exactly like valacyclovir. The researchers and patients will not know which medication they are receiving. Study visits will occur every two weeks and will take approximately 30-45 minutes. All study visits will occur at the G.V. Sonny Montgomery VA Medical Center in Jackson, Mississippi.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Peginterferon alfa-2b (40KD, Y shape, the followings will refer as Ypeginterferon alfa-2b for short), at a dose of 180μg/week, in combination with Ribavirin in Chinese chronic hepatitis C patients. The study will first group patients into two sub-study, genotype 2/3 and non-genotype 2/3, depending on the HCV genotype that infected. In the genotype 2/3 sub-study about 219 patients will be enrolled, and eligible patients are randomized at 2:1 ratio into Ypeginterferon alfa-2b group or active control group (Pegasys), receiving 24 weeks of interferon therapy and oral daily Ribavirin at a dose of 800mg/d. In the non-genotype 2/3 sub-study about 507 patients will be enrolled, and eligible patients are randomized at 2:1 ratio into Ypeginterferon alfa-2b group or active control group (Pegasys), receiving 48 weeks of interferon therapy and oral daily Ribavirin 1000-1200mg/day , basing on body weight. All patients will be followed for 24 weeks after the end of therapy.

This study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral efficacy of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir fixed dose combination (FDC) with or without ribavirin (RBV) administered for 12 or 24 weeks in treatment-experienced subjects with chronic genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ABT-450/ritonavir/ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267; ABT-450 also known as paritaprevir; ABT-267 also known as ombitasvir) and ABT-333 (also known as dasabuvir) coadministered with ribavirin (RBV) in hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1-infected adults with compensated cirrhosis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral efficacy of ledipasvir (LDV)/sofosbuvir (SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablets with or without ribavirin (RBV) administered for 12 and 24 weeks in treatment-naive subjects with chronic genotype 1 HCV infection.

This is a research study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and anti-viral activity of GS-9669 in patients with Hepatitis C infection.

This multi-center, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and Copegus (ribavirin) in relation to IL28-b gene expression in treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1. Patients will receive Pegasys (180 mcg sc weekly) and Copegus ( 1'000 or 1'200 mg orally daily) for 48 weeks. Anticipated time of study treatment is 48 weeks, follow-up is 24 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a quadruple regimen (VX-222, telaprevir, pegylated interferon, and ribavirin)in subjects with hepatitis C with cirrhosis.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the rate of sustained virologic response (SVR) SVR12, where SVR12 is defined as HCV RNA < LOQ (detectable or undetectable) 12 weeks post-treatment in Genotype 1 & Genotype 4 treatment naive patients, and Genotype (GT1) infected patients who are prior null responders to pegIFN/ribavirin
