Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis A"

Background: Infection with hepatitis D virus leads to a chronic liver disease with no effective treatment. Lonafarnib has improved hepatitis D virus levels in blood, but the medication still needs more research. Ritonavir makes other drugs more effective and is used with lonafarnib to make it more effective. Lambda interferon stimulates the body s response to viruses. Researchers want to see if combining these drugs fights hepatitis D and helps the liver. Objectives: To see if combining lonafarnib, ritonavir, and lambda interferon is safe and effective to treat chronic hepatitis D infection. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with chronic hepatitis D infection Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam, medical history, and blood and urine tests. Throughout the study, all participants will: Follow rules for medicine, food, and contraception Take hepatitis B medicine Have weight checked Have routine blood and urine tests Give stool samples Female participants will have pregnancy tests. Participants will have 3 visits before treatment. They will repeat screening tests and have a heart test and liver scan. Participants will have a 5-day inpatient stay. They will: Baseline blood and urine tests Have eye tests Answer health questions Have a liver sample taken and liver blood pressure measured. Participants will be sedated. Have reproductive tests Start the study drugs and have blood draws Over 24 weeks of treatment, participants will: -Take 2 study drugs by mouth every day and 1 as a weekly injection

This three-part, Phase 1 protocol will be the first clinical study of ABI-H2158. Parts 1 and 2 will be a Phase 1a, dose-ranging assessment of ABI-H2158 in healthy adult volunteers. If the dose-related safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ABI-H2158 in healthy volunteers are deemed satisfactory, then the study will advance to Part 3, a Phase 1b, dose-ranging assessment of ABI-H2158 in non-cirrhotic, CHB patients.

This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized clinical trial to Assess Efficacy and Safety of 3 Doses of Myrcludex B for 24 Weeks in Combination with Tenofovir Compared to Tenofovir Alone to Suppress HBV Replication in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis D

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) intravenous infusion when used to treat alcoholic hepatitis (inflammation of the liver from heavy alcohol use) and sepsis (life-threatening complication of an infection).

hepatitis C virus (HCV) has traditionally been treated in subspecialty health centers given the complexity of older pegylated interferon containing regimens, formerly the standard of care. This model has persisted into the modern era of direct anti-viral agents (DAAs) despite their relative simplicity, creating a bottleneck of human resources necessary to fight the largest infectious epidemic in North America. In addition, stigma and fear over cost has lead payers to restrict treatment in People Who Inject Drugs (PWIDs), even though a majority of new infections occur in this population. This study evaluates the effectiveness of treatment of HCV with elbasvir-grasoprevir in PWIDs in a real world, community health clinic setting. There are two prospective cohorts of PWIDs of 25 patients each, both in primary care-based community health clinics in Portland, Oregon. Cohort one is actively engaged with ambulatory medication assisted therapy with buprenorphine or extended released injectable naltrexone. Cohort two maintains active injection drug use with needle exchange and risk reduction education. These groups are compared to a 50 patient retrospective cohort of people with substance use disorders at tertiary care hepatology-based treatment program. All patients have genotype 1 or 4 HCV and are treated with elbasvir-grasoprevir for 12 weeks. The investigators hypothesize there is no difference in sustained viremic response at 12 or 48 weeks post-completion of treatment (SVR 12, 48) when treating patients in a community health clinic setting as compared to the standard-of-care subspecialty setting.

The aim of this study is to determine if treatment monitoring schedule for chronic HCV patients treated with glecaprevir (300mg)/pibrentasvir (120mg) can be simplified. Data has shown that direct acting antiviral (DAA) regimen of glecaprevir (300mg)/pibrentasvir (120mg), a protease inhibitor and NS5A inhibitor respectively , provides key features for HCV treatment simplification. Eligible participants (naïve pre-cirrhosis chronic HCV patients) will be randomized (1:2) to the standard or simplified monitoring arm and will receive treatment for 8 weeks. One post treatment visit will be conducted 12 weeks after the final dose of study medication to evaluate the proportion of patients with undetectable HCV RNA at this timepoint (SVR12).

This was a Phase 3b, open-label, non-randomized, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1 - 6 infection without liver cirrhosis or with compensated liver cirrhosis and with chronic renal impairment in participants who were either HCV treatment-naïve (TN) or prior treatment-experienced (TE) with interferon (IFN) or pegylated interferon (PegIFN) with or without ribavirin (RBV), or sofosbuvir (SOF) plus RBV with or without pegIFN.

Sustained Viral Response following 12-week therapy (SVR 12) with sofosbuvir/ledipasvir in transfusion-dependent patients with HCV genotype 1-6 Secondary Objective(s): Assessment of transfusion requirements Adverse events Efficacy in treatment-naïve vs. relapsers vs. null responders Efficacy in patients with advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis vs. F1, F2 by elastography

DCR-HBVS will be evaluated for safety and efficacy in healthy volunteers and chronic hepatitis B patients.

In a multi-center study 200 patients co-infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) will be treated with a fixed-dose combination pill combined of 400 mg sofosbuvir and 30, 60, or 90 mg of daclatasvir - depending on the particular antiretroviral treatment (ART) being used by the patient. The treatment duration will be 12 weeks for subjects without cirrhosis and 24 weeks for those with cirrhosis.
