Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis A"

The purpose of study is identifying the effectiveness of 'continuing medical education' (CME) to primary healthcare worker to improve knowledge about viral hepatitis B-C

This test-negative study is designed to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of hepatitis E vaccine (Hecolin®) and to explore the prevalence of rat hepatitis E in Dongtai City.

The purpose of the research is to determine if the Hepatitis B vaccine after birth provides enough protection after cooling for Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE). To do this, Hepatitis B titers (blood sample) would be taken before, during, and after administering of the Hepatitis B vaccine series to measure efficacy of the vaccine.

Chronic hepatitis B seriously endangers the health of our people, especially the occurrence of HCC, which brings huge economic burden and life threat to our people. 84% - 92% of HCC in China is related to chronic HBV infection. How to further reduce the risk of liver cancer is an urgent problem to be solved in clinical research and an important direction. Although NAs treatment can make patients achieve the negative transformation of virus, it can not effectively reduce the level of virus antigen, and it also lacks the ability to improve the immune clearance of virus. As a result, the incidence of liver cancer in patients with long-term NA treatment is still 4.5% - 10.5%, and the incidence of HCC in patients with hypoviremia in Na treatment is higher. In current clinical practice, nearly 1 / 3 of patients treated with NAs can not reach the detection line of highly sensitive reagent. It is an important measure to make the patients with hypoviremia and inactive low virus replication treated by NAs below the detection line of highly sensitive reagent and further reduce the risk of HCC. However, it is still not enough to minimize the risk of HCC to achieve a complete viral response only through NA treatment. The long-term follow-up showed that the incidence of HBsAg disappeared by only 2.0% - 0.0% regardless of the long-term treatment of HBsAg. Therefore, the most important measure to minimize the occurrence of HCC is to optimize the treatment of NA treated patients with low virus replication and inactive patients with low virus replication to achieve complete virus response and clinical cure. The purpose of this study is to explore the optimal treatment scheme for chronic hepatitis B NA treated patients with hypoviremia and natural low virus replication patients to significantly reduce the risk of HCC.

A multi-centre, randomized, non-inferiority trial in patients with irH, randomized to receive either close surveillance with corticosteroid rescue therapy or early high dose corticosteroids.

Background: Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection affects 292 million people worldwide; 887,000 die each year from cirrhosis, liver cancer, and related issues. Treatment options are limited. Objective: To test 2 drugs (VIR-2218 and peginterferon) in people with mild or inactive HBV infection. Eligibility: People aged 18 to 65 years with mild or inactive HBV infection. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests and an eye exam. They will have imaging scans of the liver to check the health of the liver. Participants will be in the study for over 2 years. VIR-2218 is an injection given under the skin of the stomach, upper arm, or thigh. Participants will come to the clinic to receive this injection once a month for 6 months. Peginterferon is also injected under the skin. Participants will have this shot once a week for 6 months. They may either inject themselves at home or come to the clinic to get the injections. Participants will get just the VIR-2218 for 3 months, then both shots for 3 months, then just the peginterferon for 3 months. Participants will have two 3-day stays in the hospital. Tests will include: Liver biopsy. A sample of tissue will be taken from their liver. After the procedure, participants will lie on their right side for 2 hours and then on their back for 4 hours. Fine needle aspiration. A small needle will be used to collect cells from the liver. After the last injection of peginterferon, follow-up visits will continue in the outpatient clinic every 4 to 12 weeks.

Refractory hepatitis B is to point to although standard application nucleoside (acid) analogue treatment undertakes primary treatment and two strengthen treatment, but existence is persistent viremia. Currently, there is no consensus on salvage therapy for patients who remain virus-positive after a second round of antiviral therapy. This is the first multicenter, prospective, parallel controlled, open-label cohort study to compare the efficacy and safety of TDF/TAF combined with ETV1.0mg regimen versus continuation of the original regimen in the treatment of refractory hepatitis B.

This is a pilot study to determine the safety and efficacy of a novel adjuvanted hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine formulated as a potential therapeutic vaccine against chronic HBV infection. An ongoing human clinical trial of this HBV vaccine in a prophylactic setting has confirmed this vaccine to be more effective at inducing seroconversion as measured by development of Hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) in poor responder subjects than the standard alum-adjuvanted HBV vaccine, providing promise that this new vaccine may also be able to induce HBV viral control and/or seroconversion in chronically infected subjects

This is an observational, longitudinal, prospective study for sample collection and evaluation for future therapy or disease progression of chronic hepatitis B and C. Participants will be seen on an annual basis with optional additional visits for up to 10 years and provide samples for research and evaluation of disease progression. In addition, there is a longitudinal sub-study for treatment of hepatitis B that will involve 2 years of treatment with tenofovir alafenamide and blood collections with optional liver biopsies.

To determine the treatment efficacy, safety and long-term outcomes of chronic hepatitis C patients receiving directly acting antivirals in Taiwan
