Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis C, Chronic"

This multicenter, open-label, uncontrolled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of increasing the dose of peginterferon alfa-2a (Pegasys) in participants with Genotype 1/4/5/6 CHC and an early non-response to a standard course of peginterferon alfa-2a plus ribavirin. The study will consist of screening (4 weeks), treatment (32 weeks), and follow-up (24 weeks).

This study will evaluate the effect of PF-04136309 in patients with chronic hepatitic C virus infection and abnormal liver enzymes.

To evaluate the efficacy of pegylated interferon alfa-2a 40 kD (PEGASYS) combination therapy with ribavirin (Copegus)given for 24 or 48 weeks in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) virus infection genotype 2 or 3 who responded during (i.e. had HCV-RNA <50 IU/mL at the end of previous therapy), but relapsed after (i.e. had detectable HCV-RNA after the end of prior treatment) previous therapy with pegylated interferon and ribavirin given for at least 12 weeks and at most 24 weeks.

To study the effectiveness and safety of adding Rosiglitazone, an insulin sensitizing agent to people with chronic hepatitis C infection genotype 1 with fatty liver disease, who are being treated with standard therapy. Standard therapy consists of weekly pegylated interferon injections and daily ribavirin pills, whose dosage is weight based. This regimen in genotype 1 patients is effective in only 45% of patients at best. In addition, this therapy must be given for 48 weeks to be effective and has alot of side-effects. One risk factor for a poor response is fatty liver. Rosiglitazone has been shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with fatty liver alone. This study hopes to show that the addition of Rosiglitazone to the standard therapy in genotype 1 patients with fatty liver disease will increase effectiveness of the standard therapy of hepatitis C.

This is a treatment study trial, in which we will assess the safety and tolerability of daily dose IL-2, as monotherapy for 12 weeks, followed by IL2 in combination with PEG-IFN and RBV for 48 weeks in the treatment of chronic Hepatitis C.

This is a non-randomized, open-label study examining the safety and efficacy of betaine in addition to standard anti-viral therapy in genotype 1 hepatitis C non-responders or relapsers to previous pegylated interferon plus ribavirin. Betaine (20 gm/day) in 2 divided doses will be added to Peginterferon alpha 2a (180 mcg) plus weight-based Ribavirin (1000 or 1200 mg/day, for body weight < or > 75 kg, respectively, for 48 weeks. Patients must be diagnosed with chronic hepatitis C, genotype I, and have undergone therapy for hepatitis C with pegylated interferon plus ribavirin. Subjects will be followed for safety, tolerability, hepatitis C viral response and the effect on interferon gene signaling in peripheral blood mononuclear cells during therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate daclatasvir in combination with sofosbuvir given to children with chronic hepatitis C infection

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r), with or without dasabuvir (DSV) coadministered with or without ribavirin (RBV) for 12 or 24 weeks in adult patients with genotype 1 or genotype 4 chronic HCV infection and treated early stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma with compensated cirrhosis.

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, first-in-human, 3-part study in which the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of orally administered AL-704 will be assessed in healthy adult subjects and in adult subjects with CHC infection. Part 1: Healthy adult subjects will receive one of 5 single ascending oral doses (SAD) of AL-704 ranging from 100 mg to 1,500 mg (Cohorts 1 to 5). Within each cohort subjects will be randomized to receive either AL-704 or placebo (n=8 per cohort; 6 assigned to AL-704 and 2 assigned to placebo), in a fasted state. The planned dose-escalation scheme may be changed based on the emerging PK and safety data. Two additional cohorts (Cohorts 6 and 7) may be enrolled for evaluation of additional doses at the discretion of the Sponsor and Investigator, based on the emerging pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and the presence of an acceptable safety profile. Part 2: To assess the food effect on pharmacokinetics, 8 healthy subjects from one full Part 1 cohort who received a single dose of AL-704 or placebo in a fasted state, will receive the same single dose of AL-704 or placebo in a fed state in Part 2 after a washout period of 7-14 days (depending on PK results). It is expected that Cohort 3 of Part 1 (600 mg dose) will be selected, however this depends on the evaluation of available PK and safety data from Part 1 of the study. Part 3: The following cohorts of 10 adult subjects each, with CHC infection, will be evaluated. Subjects with CHC genotype 1 infection (Cohorts 8 to 10) and subjects with CHC genotype 3 infection (Cohort 11) will be randomized to receive AL-704 or placebo for 7 consecutive days (n=10 per cohort, 8 assigned to AL-704 and 2 assigned to placebo) in a fed state. The treatment is anticipated to be administered in a once daily dose regimen or a twice daily dose regimen. The dose and dose regimen to be administered will be determined by the Sponsor depending on the PK and safety outcomes of previous cohorts.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether treatment with Epclusa (sofosbuvir/velpatasvir) after lung transplantation in individuals with chronic hepatitis C infection is feasible, safe and effective at curing HCV.
