Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis C"

The primary objective is to assess the prevalence and genotypes of HCV infection in thalassemia major and thalassemia intermediate patients who have received blood transfusion in the Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital. The secondary objective is to identify the effect of HCV infection as well as the risk factors of advanced liver disease and liver cirrhosis in these patients The third objective is to identify the role of serum HA level and fibrotest in the prediction of cirrhosis in these patients.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is very common in Egypt and the middle east. The disease affects multiple body organs and may proceed to hepatocellular carcinoma. The viral disease causes changes in the microbial symbiosis in the human body. Thus, the analysis of the microbiome may provide a means of diagnosis for HCV infection. Thus, this study will be held to detect if the microbiome of patients having HCV differ from that of normal individuals.

SHARP-P is an observational cohort study investigating the effect of direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy and reinfection in people with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) and recent injecting drug use. A prospective, observational cohort design will be used to enrol patients from correctional centres in New South Wales, Australia. Participants will be prescribed a direct-acting HCV medication as per the standard of care. The on treatment phase will vary dependent on the type of a direct-acting antiviral prescribed as per the standard of care. Once patients have completed their treatment course they will be followed up every 3 months for up to 3 years following the end of treatment phase. The study will aim to evaluate the incidence of HCV reinfection following successful DAA treatment over the three years of follow up. The study will also evaluate the proportion of patients with undetectable HCV RNA at 12 weeks post end of treatment (SVR12) with direct-acting anti-viral HCV therapy.

The objective of this study was to assess the incidence of side effects after direct-acting antiviral therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection.

The purpose of this study is to assess long-term outcomes in subjects previously treated with daclatasvir-based therapy for chronic Hepatitis-C (CHC)

A clinical observational study for patients with HIV co-infected with hepatitis C that investigates the levels of their health literacy, hepatitis C and HIV knowledge. Participants will complete a one-time assessment of these studied domains and categorized in three groups defined by their hepatitis C treatment referral status: not-referred, referred-attended, referred and no-show.

HCV remains to prevail in the uremic patients under hemodialysis. The comprehensive surveillance in the risk population facilitates the link to care for HCV eradication.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about what psychological and social factors affect people in how they take their hepatitis C medications.

Data regarding the nephrotoxicity of sofosbuvir (SOF) remain controversial. The investigators compared the changes of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection receiving SOF-based or SOF-free direct acting antivirals (DAAs).

The study aims to evaluate 13 different HCV RDTs (10 on-market, 3 under development) for their diagnostic performance and operational characteristics in archived EDTA plasma samples, originating from patients from different geographical regions (Nigeria, Georgia, Cambodia, Belgium) and with or without HIV co-infection.
