Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis A"

The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination treatment of CTS-1027, pegylated interferon and ribavirin can improve the response rates in HCV patients who did not previously respond to pegylated interferon and ribavirin therapy.

In patients with chronic hepatitis C, the ultimate treatment goal is the improvement of liver histology and inhibition of progression to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). These effects are reported to be correlated with sustained ALT improvement. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine if a low-dose (0.25, 0.5, or 1.0 mcg/kg SC QW) PegIntron monotherapy administered for 12 weeks will result in ALT normalization in Japanese patients with chronic hepatitis C.

The purpose is to evaluate efficacy and safety of therapeutic Hepatitis B Virus（HBV） vaccine (mimogen-based) treatment in chronic hepatitis B patients and to explore the most effective dosage and provide the rational for optimal dosing schedule.

The pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is associated to severe oxidative stress and non-selective immunological disturbance that leads to necro-inflammation and progression of fibrosis. Previous trials suggested that antioxidant and inmunostimulant therapies may have a beneficial effect. The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether Viusid, a nutritional supplement with hepatoprotective properties, could ameliorate the oxidative stress and modulate the immune response in patients with CHC and non-responders to pegylated interferon plus ribavirin, during 24 weeks of treatment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 4 different regimens of TMC435 in combination with peginterferon alfa-2a (PegIFNα-2a) and ribavirin (RBV), defined as the proportion of patients with sustained virologic response at Week 72 (patients with undetectable plasma HCV RNA [less than 25 IU per mL undetectable] at the end of treatment and at Week 72), compared to the control group receiving PegIFN and RBV in combination with TMC435-matched placebo.

This 7 cohort study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination treatment with an HCV nucleoside polymerase inhibitor(RO5024048)and an HCV protease inhibitor(RO5190591/ITMN-191/danoprevir) in patients with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1.Cohorts A,B,C,D and G will be treatment-naive patients, cohort E will be treatment-experienced excluding null responders, and cohort F will be null responders. Cohorts A and B will evaluate doses of 500mg po bid RO5024048 and 100mg po q8h RO5190591, alone or in combination, for up to 7 or 14 days. Cohort C will evaluate combination treatment with either 1000mg po bid RO5024048 and 100mg q8h RO5190591 or 500mg po bid RO5024048 and 200mg q8h RO5190591 for 14 days. Cohort D will evaluate 1000mg po bid RO5024048 and 200mg q8h RO5190591 for 14 days.Cohort E will evaluate 1000mg RO5024048/600mg RO5190591 po twice daily for 14 days, and Cohorts F and G will evaluate 1000mg RO5024048/900mg RO5190591 po twice daily for 14 days. Cohorts will be tested sequentially or in parallel, if supported by appropriate safety and pharmacokinetic data.Following the last dose of study medication patients have the option of continuing treatment with Standard of care therapies. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.

A Study to assess the general safety and tolerability of the administration of a 3-dose prime/boost regimen of the MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag vaccine (V520) in subjects with chronic hepatitis C virus infection.

The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of ABT-333 (also known as dasabuvir) in treatment-naïve, hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected participants.

This study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection during the first 6 months after acquiring HCV among people who already have pre-existing HIV infection will result in improved responses to HCV therapy with a shorter duration of infection.

A short 14 day phase 1 study examining 6 monotherapy doses of oral tamoxifen for safety in chronic HCV patients who have failed standard treatment of peginterferon and ribavirin.
