FGL2/Fibroleukin and Hepatitis C Virus Recurrence Post Liver Transplantation
Liver TransplantationHepatitis CThe main objective of this study is to assess whether a recently-developed bioassay for the molecule "secreted fibrinogen-like protein 2" (sFGL2) can be used to predict the recurrence and/or progression of Hepatitis C Virus disease in post liver transplant patients. The hypothesis is that patients with chronic HCV have higher than normal levels of sFGL2 in their blood both pre- and post-transplantation and that this will inhibit their ability to clear HCV, and influence the progression of HCV disease when it recurs.
Frequency of Anxiety and Depression in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients Recieving Direct-Acting Antiviral...
Chronic Hepatitis cThe primary objective of this study is to prospectively analyse psychiatric outcomes, specifically depression and anxiety in patients with hepatitis C virus infection who are initiated on DAA therapy (sofosbuvir based regimen).
Strategic Screening for Infectious Diseases (Tuberculosis, HIV, HBV, HCV) Amongst Migrants in France...
HIVHepatitis C2 moreTo evaluate the efficacy of a new screening for infectious diseases: tuberculosis, HIV, HBV and HCV, based on risk factors questionnaires (TB screen for tuberculosis and TROD screen for HIV and hepatitis) amongst a population of legal migrants during their mandatory medical check-up. This study aims for a global improvement of screening and care for migrants.

HCV RAS Testing in Public Health Programs
Hepatitis CPublic Health2 moreSuccessful treatment of hepatitis C has been reported to be associated with 62-84% reduction in all-cause mortality (deaths), 68-79% reduction in risk of HCC and 90% reduction in risk of liver transplantation. The efficacy of NS5A inhibitors for the treatment of patients chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) can be affected by the presence of NS5A resistance-associated substitutions (RASs). Pre-existence of resistance associated substitutions (RASs) to direct antiviral agents (DAAs) reduces sustained virologic response (SVR) rates by 3-53% in hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 3 infected patients depending on different predictors and the DAA regimen used. This study will prospectively analyze data from the MukhMantri Punjab Hepatitis C Relief Fund (MMPHCRF) to determine the posttreatment prevalence of various NS5A RASs, and their effect on outcomes of treatment with daclatasvir-sofosbuvir or sofosbuvir-ledipasvirin patients with chronic HCV. The study aims to assess the prevalence and effect of RASs on sustained virological response (SVR) rates in patients with treatment failure to a regimen containing sofosbuvir and ledipasvir/daclatasvir.
Safety and Efficacy of Different Antiviral Regimens for Hepatitis C Virus Relapse
Hepatitis CRelapse1 moreThe primary goal of hepatitis C virus (HCV) Direct Acting Antivirals (DAAs) is to achieve undetectable HCV RNA in the blood. A response that should be maintained for at least 12 weeks from completion of therapy. This is called sustained virological response (SVR) which corresponds to cure of HCV infection as risk of later relapse is very small. SVR is important to achieve improvement in liver necroinflammation and fibrosis and to decrease complications of cirrhosis. Failing to achieve SVR after treatment requires another regimen for these experienced patients. Real-world data are always needed to evaluate and improve our practices. Here investigators aim to assess tolerability and efficacy of different regimens used for management of genotype 4 HCV relapse.
Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir/Voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) for Patients With Hepatitis C Virus Infection...
Hepatitis C Virus InfectionTreatment Side Effects3 moreThe investigators aim to assess the effectiveness and safety of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) for 12 weeks in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients who fail to prior NS5A-containing DAA regimens and HCV genotype 1a and 3 patients who fail to prior non-NS5A-containing DAA regimen in Taiwan on a basis of a multicenter observational study.
Epidemiology of Hepatitis C Virus Infection Among Opioid Substituted Patients
Hepatitis CThe aim of the present study is to estimate the national annual prevalence and incidence of current hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections among opioid dependent individuals in opioid substitution treatment (OST) based on a representative sample of approximately 2,500 outpatients in 100 substitution facilities across Germany. Furthermore, the study aims to describe factors influencing HCV therapy initiation and seroconversion during OST.
Reviewing DAA Efficacy Managing Patient Treatment In Online Neighbourhoods
Hepatitis CREDEMPTION (Reviewing DAA Efficacy Managing Patient Treatment In Online Neighbourhoods) is observing and collating the treatment course, safety profile, and outcomes of patients around the world who are choosing to self import generic versions of the Direct Acting Antivirals Sofosbuvir, Ledipasvir and Daclatasvir from countries like China, India and Bangladesh.
