Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis C, Chronic"

The purpose of this study is to determine if concentration-controlled ribavirin dosing can achieve a targeted level of plasma exposures and if it appears safe and effective compared with standard weight-based ribavirin dosing. Forty, previously treatment-naive participants with genotype 1 disease will be randomized to receive concentration-guided or standard weight-based ribavirin. Peginterferon alfa 2a,ribavirin, and telaprevir will be provided through the study.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate effectiveness, safety and pharmacokinetics (Explores what the body does to the medication) of TMC435350 in combination with Peginterferon Alfa-2a and Ribavirin in genotype 1 hepatitis C virus infected Japanese participants who have never received treatment for their hepatitis C infection.

This is a study designed to identify a dose of NIM811 that has a good safety profile, is well tolerated when co-administered with SOC, and provides a clinically meaningful effect in viral load reduction compared to SOC alone. This information will be used to support doses selected for future studies.

SCH 900518 is a potent oral inhibitor of HCV NS3 protease which disrupts hepatitis C virus (HCV) polyprotein processing. SCH 900518, when added to the current standard of care (SOC), peginterferon-alfa plus ribavirin, would likely increase the proportion of patients achieving undetectable HCV-RNA levels and sustained virologic response (SVR). In this study, SCH 900518 would be used in combination with low doses of ritonavir to enhance the levels of SCH 900518 within the body and reduce the number of daily SCH 900518 tablets required. The purpose of this study is to identify the optimal dose and schedule (once or twice a day) of SCH 900518 plus ritonavir in previously untreated patients with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C when given in combination with SOC. The study compares SOC to 6 experimental arms. In the experimental arms, SOC plus SCH 900518 doses of 200, 400 and 600 mg once daily or 100 mg twice daily with ritonavir 100 mg once or twice daily will be explored. The benefits of a 4 week lead-in with PegIntron and ribavirin prior to the addition of SCH 900518 will also be explored.

This is a proof-of-concept study which will provide data about the safety and antiviral activity of several doses of the investigational drug IDX184 given for 3 days in treatment-naive HCV genotype 1-infected subjects so that optimal doses can be chosen for testing in later studies.

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of alb-interferon in adults with genotype 2 or 3 chronic hepatitis

This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of albinterferon alfa 2b (alb-IFN) single dose in Japanese chronic hepatitis C patients

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, efficacy and tolerability of using two regimens of telaprevir (with and without delayed start) with standard treatment compared to standard treatment alone in participants with chronic, genotype 1, hepatitis C.

Combination therapy with pegylated interferon-alpha plus ribavirin has greatly improved the treatment efficacy and is the mainstream of treatment for chronic hepatitis C infection. The efficacy and safety of pegylated interferon-alpha plus ribavirin combination therapy and its impact on the outcome in chronic hepatitis C patients concomitant with malignancy other than hepatocellular carcinoma deserve to be elucidated. The purposes of this study are: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pegylated interferon-alpha 2a plus ribavirin combination therapy in chronic hepatitis C patients concomitant with malignancy other than hepatocellular carcinoma, compare to those without systemic malignancy. To investigate the role of baseline and on-treatment factors on the response to pegylated interferon-alpha 2a plus ribavirin combination therapy in chronic hepatitis C patients concomitant with malignancy other than hepatocellular carcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to determine if nitazoxanide in combination with peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin is safe and effective in treating chronic hepatitis C in treatment-naive patients.
