Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis B"

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the education given to patients with CHB who use oral antiviral drugs on oral antiviral drug use on drug compliance and quality of life.

The EuroSIDA study is a prospective observational cohort study of 23,000+ patients followed in 100+ clinics in 35 European countries, Israel and Argentina. The study is the largest pan-European cohort study and few studies of a comparable design are available on a global scale. The EuroSIDA study is an ongoing collaboration and patients have been enrolled into the study through 11 cohorts since 1994. The main objective of the study remains the same as in 1994: to prospectively study, clinical, therapeutic, demographic, virological and laboratory data from HIV-1 positive persons across Europe in order to determine their long-term virological, immunological and clinical outcomes. Historically, EuroSIDA has been crucial in reporting key changes in the HIV epidemic, such as the dramatic changes in morbidity and mortality when combination anti-retroviral therapy (cART) was first introduced. As new anti-HCV treatment is introduced to HIV/HCV co-infected patients, it is important for EuroSIDA to remain in the forefront of investigating the treatment benefits and adverse effects. All study documents, study status, newsletters, scientific publications and presentations are available online and are updated continuously at project website. In general terms, the objective of the EuroSIDA study is to continue a long-term, prospective collection of clinical, laboratory and therapeutic data as well as plasma on a large cohort of consecutive HIV infected patients from across Europe in order to (1) assess the factors associated with the clinical, immunological and virological course of HIV infection and HIV-related co-infections and co-morbidities, and (2) continue to provide and develop a surveillance system to describe temporal changes and regional differences in the clinical course of HIV and HIV-related co-infections and co-morbidities in Europe.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether vitamin D is effective in the prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma in those patients with chronic hepatitis B.

Find a possible association between Fibronectin type Ⅲ domain containing protein 5 \ Irsin (FNDC5 rs3480) gene single nucleotide polymorphism with chronic hepatitis B and the distribution of its alleles, in relation to many clinical parameters of the chronic hepatitis B group. Asses the correlation between IL-35 serum level and the risk of chronic hepatitis B. Asses the correlation between SOD serum level and the risk of chronic hepatitis B.

The principle is to propose dedicated monthly screening days bringing together the health personnel involved (hepatologist, addictologist, nurse in charge of the program, addictology nurse and social worker) and to propose appropriate management for each situation assessed.

The objective of this protocol is the collection and testing of clinical samples to determine the clinical performance of the Access HBV serological marker assays on the DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyzer. The study will involve a multicenter, prospective and retrospective collection of samples, and testing of samples with the investigational Hepatitis B Virus assays as required per the European Union Common Technical Specification. All samples collected will be anonymized or pseudo-anonymised, leftover, remnant samples. Pseudo-anonymised collection of samples will require documented patient consent (oral or written).

This is a multicenter, prospective, real-world study, recruiting patients with chronic hepatitis B under anti-viral treatment. The recruited participants will receive peginterferon alpha based regimen or nucleos(t)ide alone. The primary objective of this study is to compare the long-term outcomes (including hepatocellular carcinoma, decompensated cirrhosis, etc）of different anti-viral therapies. The secondary objective of this study is to compare the serological response rates of different anti-viral therapies, evaluate the predictive value of HBV-related laboratory testings and describe the kinetics of them results during antiviral treatment. The follow-up time course of this study will be 5 years.

This study is being done to determine if healthcare workers who have previously failed to respond to hepatitis B vaccine series will respond to a hepatitis B with CpG adjuvant (hepB-CpG) (Heplisav-B)

All patients with chronic HBeAg negative hepatitis B treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues, who discontinue treatment based in the criteria outlined in the EASL hepatitis B guidelines shall be included in the present study. The aim is to evaluate the clinical outcome (virological relapse, HBsAg decline) and associated virological and immunological parameters.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains one of the most serious health problems worldwide. Patients with chronic HBV infection are at an increased risk for developing hepatic cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma and even death. Although some predictive factors of the outcome of chronic HBV infection were identified, more precisely determine the factors which are associated with the outcome in non-selected patients with chronic HBV infection are still needed. The investigators purpose is to constitute a observational cohort of non-selected Chinese patients to create a database of epidemiological, clinical, biological, virological, immunologic and therapeutic parameters, in order to determine factors associated with the outcome of chronic HBV infection.
