Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis, Chronic"

This Phase 2a study will assess the safety, antiviral activity, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ABI-H2158 administered once daily for up to 72 weeks in combination with entecavir (ETV) in participants with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.

Open-label, extension study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combination therapy and its effect on sustained viral response biomarkers.

A Randomized Study of ALG-010133 Drug to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics After Single and Multiple Doses in Healthy Volunteers and CHB Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and antiviral effects of multiple intravenous doses of ANZ-521 in patients with chronic Hepatitis C virus.

The purpose of this clinical research study is to find out whether a combination of entecavir (ETV) plus tenofovir (TNF) works better against Hepatitis B virus than adefovir (ADV) added to continuing lamivudine (LVD) therapy in patients whose Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is resistant against lamivudine. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.

In France, 50% of hepatitis C virus carriers develop chronic clinical hepatitis, which may lead to cirrhosis and liver transplantation. Transplant infection by hepatitis C virus is constant after transplantation and recurrence causes chronic liver disease in 50 to 80% of cases. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of cyclosporin on C virological response. Patients included in the Transpeg 1 study and non-responder or with a recurrent disease will be switched from their tacrolimus therapy to cyclosporin, in association with a 1 year peginterferon alfa-2a / ribavirin bitherapy. Efficacy will be assessed by the percentage of patients with a negative qualitative PCR after 19 months of cyclosporin treatment.

The purpose of this study is to test whether the correction of insulin resistance with pioglitazone, will improve the response to antiviral treatment.

The efficacy of pegylated interferons in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B has shown superior results to standard of care in patients only infected with hepatitis B. The efficacy of pegylated interferon for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B in HIV-coinfected patients is not known at present. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of pegylated interferon in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B in HIV-infected individuals. Apart from evaluating the efficacy of pegylated interferon therapy in this setting as such, i.e. in patients without present or future need of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for HIV-infection, there is a second purpose of this study, to investigate whether combination treatment of HBV-infection may be superior to pegylated interferon therapy alone. Therefore patients without need of HAART are offered pegylated interferon alfa-2a over 48 weeks. Patients who require HAART are offered emtricitabine / tenofovir DF containing HAART over 72 weeks PLUS pegylated interferon alfa-2a over 48 weeks vs. emtricitabine / tenofovir DF containing HAART over 72 weeks WITHOUT pegylated interferon-alfa-2a.

The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and antiviral hepatitis B virus (HBV) activity of ACH126, 433 in the treatment of adults with lamivudine-resistant chronic hepatitis B.

Previous studies indicated that Granulocyte Macrophage-colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) could improve survival rate in patients with acute liver failure and obtain higher HBsAg seroconversion rate when in combination with peg-interferon for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. In this study, investigators will study the clinical effect of entecavir (ETV) plus GM-CSF in patients with CHB compared to ETV monotherapy.
