Birth-Cohort Evaluation to Advance Screening and Testing for Hepatitis C

Hepatitis CChronic Hepatitis C

The Birth-Cohort Evaluation to Advance Screening and Testing for Hepatitis C (BEST-C) compares the effectiveness of the birth cohort HCV screening strategy with the current risk-based screening approach to detect previous unidentified persons with viral hepatitis C who receive health care in primary systems. The study involved three clinical sites, The University of Alabama, Birmingham; The Henry Ford Health System; and the Mount Sinai Medical Center, each of which developed an independent intervention to experimentally compare the number of positive Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) diagnoses found using the birth-cohort screening approach with that found using traditional risk-based screening, or standard of care strategies. Birth cohort testing is defined as the systematic recommendation of HCV antibody testing to any persons born during the years of 1945 to 1965 who do not have clinically documented evidence of a prior antibody test without regards to the patient's stated risk of exposure to the virus.

Safety and Tolerability of Boceprevir in Combination With Peginterferon Alfa-2b Plus Ribavirin for...

Chronic Hepatitis C

This study is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of boceprevir dosed 800 mg three times daily (TID) orally (PO) in combination with Peginterferon alfa-2b (PEG2b) 1.5 mcg/kg once a week (QW) administered subcutaneously (SC) plus ribavirin (RBV) (800 to 1400 mg/day) PO in Response Guided Therapy (RGT) in adult Vietnamese subjects with Chronic Hepatitis C, Genotype 1 (CHC GT1) who failed prior treatment with any interferon and ribavirin in Vietnam.

Chronic Hepatitis C Virus

The purpose of this multicenter, single-arm, combination-drug study, which includes 12 weeks of treatment and 24 weeks of follow-up, is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir in Japanese adults infected with HCV GT1b, who are treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced to an IFN-based regimen and who have ESRD on HD.

The Relationship Between MDSCs and NK Cells Activity of CHC Patient Treated by DAAs

Chronic Hepatitis C

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is easy to chronic and can progress to cirrhosis and liver cancer. Direct-acting antiviral treatment can significantly improve the prognosis of the disease and the efficacy is seemingly not affected by a variety of viral factors. In addition, direct-acting antiviral agents therapy may affect the transformation of the immune cells and ameliorate the host immune status consequently. This study mainly investigated the relationship between Direct Acting Antiviral Treatment effect and the functional activity of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and natural killer cells (NK cells) in Chronic Hepatitis C.

Truvada Versus Truvada Plus Hepatitis B Immunoglobulin (HBIg) in Prevention of Chronic Hepatitis...

Chronic Hepatitis B

The objective of this 96-week study was to evaluate the safety and antiviral efficacy of emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/TDF, coformulated; Truvada®) with or without hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIg) in preventing the recurrence of chronic hepatitis B following liver transplantation, in participants who were chronically infected with hepatitis B prior to transplantation. Prior to enrollment, participants were required to have received at least 12 weeks of HBIg therapy following liver transplantation. Enrolled participants then received FTC/TDF plus HBIg for an initial 24-week pre-randomization treatment period. Participants who completed the pre-randomization period and who achieved sustained viral suppression were randomized to continue treatment with FTC/TDF with or without HBIg for an additional 72 weeks (randomized period). The antiviral efficacy of treatment was assessed by measuring hepatitis B virus levels in the blood (HBV DNA). Safety and tolerability was monitored by assessing adverse events and various laboratory parameters.

Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (HBIg) to Restore Immune Control in People With Chronic Hepatitis B...

Chronic Hepatitis B

Background: Hepatitis B is a viral infection of the liver. When the immune system tries to clear hepatitis B, it damages the liver. Eventually, the immune system gets exhausted fighting the virus. Researchers want to see if giving large doses of an antibody (HBIg) with the drug peginterferon will boost the immune system in people with this disease. Objectives: To observe the effect of large doses of antibody against the hepatitis B surface antigen on the immune response to the virus. To see if removing hepatitis B surface antigen from the blood enhances the action of peginterferon. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with hepatitis B Design: Participants will be screened twice with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Participants will be randomly put in one of two groups. All participants will get peginterferon for 24 weeks. One group will first get HBIg for 12 weeks. Participants in the combination group will have a 4-day clinic stay. They will have: Repeats of screening tests Eye exam Liver ultrasound The first dose of HBIg by IV over 2 hours These participants will get HBIg at the clinic up to 8 times over 12 weeks then start the peginterferon. All participants will get peginterferon for 24 weeks. They will get it by injection under the skin once a week. They may do this themselves. They will keep a drug diary. They will have 5 visits to assess response and monitoring for safety.. After stopping the study drug, participants will have 4 follow-up visits over 36 weeks. They will repeat screening tests and have 1 liver ultrasound.

Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse-Imaging in Comparison to Transient Elastography for Liver Fibrosis...

Chronic Hepatitis C

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI)- Imaging compared to Transient Elastography (FibroScan) in differentiating liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Patients who are scheduled to have a liver biopsy will also undergo ARFI and FibroScan testing. The liver biopsy will be used as the reference method. The target sample size is 433.
