Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis C"

A Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, parallel design trial of two doses of mitoquinone mesylate (MitoQ) and of placebo in patients with chronic Hepatitis C. MitoQ is a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant that rapidly permeates the lipid bilayer and accumulates within mitochondria in organs such as liver, brain, heart, skeletal muscle. There is strong evidence for increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage leading to apoptosis via caspase activation. Several studies have shown that MitoQ protects cells from apoptosis by acting as a caspase inhibitor and may be effective in reducing cell damage in liver disease. It is hypothesised that administration of MitoQ will lower raised ALT seen in patients with chronic Hepatitis C compared with placebo. Approximately 36 patients who have been unresponsive or not suitable for interferon-based therapy will be enrolled at one centre. Treatment duration will be 28 days with 28 days post-treatment follow-up.

This study represents the first administration of GSK625433 in humans. The study is designed to evaluate initial safety and tolerability in healthy adults as well as anti-viral activity in Hepatitis C(HVC) infected adults. The way the human body processes GSK625433 will also be investigated.

The aim of the study is to assess whether patients with recurrent hepatitis C after liver transplantation will benefit from a treatment with ribavirin/PEG-IFN-alpha combined treatment for 48 weeks.

This is an adaptive Phase I study to evaluate RO5024048 in the following groups: Healthy Volunteers (Part 1 - Single Ascending Dose Study) -Enrollment completed Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infected patients who have failed interferon therapy (Part 2- Multiple Ascending Dose Study)-Enrollment Completed HCV genotype 1-infected patients who are treatment naive, to be dosed in combination with PEG-IFN and RBV (Part 3 - Combination Dose Study)-Currently Enrolling HCV genotype 2-3 infected patients who have previously been treated with interferon but who did not respond, to be dosed in combination with PEG-IFN and RBV (Part 3 - Combination Dose Study)- Currently enrolling The study aims to determine if RO5024048 is safe and well-tolerated in healthy people and in people infected with hepatitis C virus. The amount of RO5024048 in the blood will be measured during the study and the amount of hepatitis C virus in the blood after each dose will also be measured. During Part 3 of the study, RO5024048 will be given with PEG-IFN and RBV, two drugs currently used and approved for the treatment of HCV.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 weeks of treatment with the ABT-493/ABT-530 combination regimen in adults with chronic HCV genotype 1 - 6 infection and chronic severe renal impairment.

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL; GS-5816) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

Sofosbuvir and ledipasvir (LDV/SOF) are new directly acting antiviral drugs for the treatment of hepatitis C (HCV) that are highly effective, orally administered, well tolerated and preclinical evaluations in animal models indicate safe administration during pregnancy. This project will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of antenatal LDV/SOF treatment for 12 weeks during the second and third trimester. If proven to be effective, antenatal treatment of HCV with LDV/SOF will prevent maternal HCV-related liver disease, perinatal transmission of HCV, and community transmission of HCV.

This is a study comparing grazoprevir (MK-5172) plus elbasvir (MK-8742) treatment with sofosbuvir (SOF) plus Pegylated Interferon plus Ribavirin (RBV) [PR] treatment in treatment-naïve and prior PR treatment failure participants with chronic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) genotype (GT)1, GT4, or GT6 infection. The primary objectives are to compare efficacy (assessed by the percentage of participants achieving sustained virologic response 12 weeks after ending study treatment [SVR12]) and safety between the grazoprevir plus elbasvir treatment arm and the SOF plus PR treatment arm. The primary hypothesis is that the percentage of participants achieving SVR12 in the grazoprevir plus elbasvir treatment arm is non-inferior to that in the SOF plus PR treatment arm.

The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the noninferiority of Algeron in combination with ribavirin compared to Pegasys in combination with ribavirin in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C.

This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sofosbuvir plus ribavirin administered for 16 weeks and 24 weeks in participants with chronic genotype 1 (GT1) or genotype 3 (GT3) hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
