Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis A"

Most patients with Chronic Hepatitis B are on nucleoside analogy (NA) long term, but this leads to HBsAg loss (defined as functional cure) of only 2% at 6 years. Recently a number of studies have shown significant HBsAg loss rates after stopping nucleoside analogues (NA). However, no criteria to select such patients have been evaluated. Consequently, the objective of the study is not only to determine the proportion of patients able to achieve HBsAg loss in those with qHBsAg≤100IU/ml. The study is designed as a randomised control trial with 1:2 parallel arm randomisation to continuing NA or stopping therapy. Patients will be monitored after stopping therapy for Hepatitis B flares and also to document HBsAg loss.

This is open-label, randomized, multicentre study to compare the efficacy and safety of the 8-week versus 12-week of SOF-RVD combination treatment for non-cirrhotic chronic hepatitis C patients. All the recruited subjects will receive the treatment accordingly and be followed up for 24 weeks following the completion of treatment.

Current standard therapy of primary biliary cholangitis-autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome(PBC-AIH overlap) consists of a combination of prednisolone and azathioprine. However, a significant proportion of patients may do not respond to, or is intolerant for azathioprine. Several studies have documented the efficacy and safety of mycophenolate mofetil(MMF) as second-line therapy for PBC-AIH overlap. However, robust evidence from a formal randomized clinical trial for the first-line immunosuppressor is in need.

Data on the progression of liver fibrosis in patients co-infected with HIV taking effective suppressive antiretroviral therapy with no fibrosis or mild-to-moderate fibrosis at baseline are scarce. This uncertainty is reflected in lack of clear guidance on the need for earlier (than F3-F4) treatment in co-infected patients. Within our hepatitis C/HIV co-infection project in Cambodia, the investigators have the opportunity to monitor for short-term fibrosis progression in a cohort of co-infected patients with initial no-to-moderate fibrosis being identified during another ongoing study (HCV-Epi) and contribute relevant data to aid the risk/benefit analysis of postponing HCV treatment in HIV/HCV co-infected patients with initial fibrosis stage F0-F2. The HCV-Monitoring study is a mono-centric prospective cohort study proposing a standardized follow-up (clinical, biological and imaging) to monitor for progression of hepatitis C disease in all patients with HIV infection (on anti-retroviral treatment or not) of Sihanouk Hospital Center of Hope (Phnom Penh, Cambodia) who have chronic HCV infection with GT-1, -2, -3 or -6 but are not considered in immediate need of HCV treatment. All adult HIV-infected patients of the cohort (on ART or not yet on ART) of Sihanouk hospital Center of Hope who are identified during the HCV-Epi study having chronic HCV infection (all genotypes) and considered not in immediate need of HCV treatment (= Fibrosis stages F0-F2 and no clinical signs of extra-hepatic disease) will be considered for inclusion and invited to participate. Approximately 70 HCV/HIV co-infected patients with no-to-moderate hepatic fibrosis will be enrolled in this study. Beyond the baseline visit (HCV-Epi), follow-up visits are planned at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. These patient visits will comprise of a history taking and physical examination focused on hepatic disease and blood sampling for basic hematologic and hepatic function parameters. Additionally, patients will be referred every year for ultrasound and transient elastography measurements and sampling for some additional liver function tests and measurement of HCV-RNA viral load.

The anti-virus effects is not satisfying in some of Chronic Hepatitis B（CHB) patients who have been on anti-Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) drugs therapy. Dendritic cell (DC) is critical in Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) specific immunity in the process of producing HBV promoter specific cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) and specific T helper cells (HTLs), however they are defective in CHB patients. Therefore, if it were going to remove HBV completely, it mainly depends if the body itself can produce enough HBV specific cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) and specific T helper cells (HTLs). Our research is to plus Hepatitis B Vaccine Activated-DCs therapy to CHB patients who have been on anti-HBV drugs but with poor effects, supposing to significantly improve anti-HBV efficacy, even to clean HBV from the patients.

To determine the optimal time for the Tenofovir treatment of anti-Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) during the pregnancy among women with chronic HBV infection and high HBV DNA load. This is a randomized, open-label, three-arms, parallel-controlled clinical trial. Pregnant women with high HBV load and normal liver function will be treated with tenofovir during the middle or late stage of pregnancy, started from 24th gestational week, 28th gestational week and 32th gestational week through 1 month postpartum, respectively. The HBV DNA load at 40th gestational week of mothers, the intrauterine HBV infection rate of infants will be compared across the three groups.

Current treatment guidelines indicate that oral antiviral agents for HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B virus infection (CHB) can be stopped if the patient has undergone HBeAg seroconversion with HBV-DNA loss measured at two consecutive occasions at least 6 months apart (primary treatment endpoint). Stopping treatment can be considered if undetectable HBV-DNA has been documented on three separate occasions 6 months apart in HBeAg-negative patients. However, oral antiviral drugs currently approved for the treatment of CHB have relatively limited sustained long-term efficacy and a large proportion of patients will suffer from HBV recurrence after stopping treatment.

The purpose of this study is to observe a new scheme can achieve is the same as the traditional scheme of the effect of preventing hepatitis B recurrence.
