Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis"

This multicenter retrospective study aims to study the association between the presence of MAFLD and change in liver stiffness over time in untreated and treated patients with chronic hepatitis B

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is one of the major causes of chronic liver diseases worldwide. Around 296 million people were living with chronic hepatitis B infection, with 1.5 million new infections each year and more than 820 thousand people die because of hepatitis B virus (HBV) related complications

The study is aimed to explore the safety and efficacy of the pulse usage , comparing to continuous usage, of Peginterferon alfa-2b Injection (PEG IFN α-2b) Combined With tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) in treatment of naive chronic hepatitis B patients with HBeAg negative.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major global health issue with 257 million chronically infected individuals. Of note, China has the largest population accounting for one third of the world's infected population. Approximately, about 300 000 people die each year due to the consequences of HBV. In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) proposed the goal for elimination of hepatitis B as public health threat by 2030 and China will be a major contributor towards this global goal. Currently, two approved therapeutic strategies are available including pegylated interferon (IFN) or nucleos (t) ide analogues (NA), which could suppress HBV replication and slow disease progression. Here, investigators hope to launch a cohort study to reveal the clinical features relating to therapeutic efficacy of antiviral therapy and the prognosis of patients with differential therapeutic strategies.

The investigators want to evaluate the feasibility of a decentralised hepatitis C care pathway (the Chain of Addiction Care (CAC) pathway) in several addiction care centres in the east of the Netherlands. Secondary objective: to measure the impact of hepatitis C clearance on MET (+metabolite) and BUP (+metabolite) trough levels in patients on Opioid substitution Therapy (OST). This is an exploratory, observational study.

Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) is chronic fibroinflammatory disease of the liver characterized by chronic, relapsing liver inflammation, and a risk for progression to liver failure and need for liver transplantation. No AIH-specific registry does exist in Italy, so that the actual epidemiology of the disease in the country is unknown. This is an observational, retrospective and prospective, multicenter study evaluating incidence, prevalence and disease course of AIH in subjects > 1 years old in Italy.

This is an open-label, randomized study to investigate subcutaneous (SC) bepirovirsen when delivered via SC injection from vial or Prefilled syringe fitted with a Safety syringe device (PFS SSD) in healthy adult participants. The aim of this study is to provide relative bioavailability data to support the transition from the vial presentation of bepirovirsen, to a ready-to-use liquid in a PFS SSD when both are given by a health care professional. The study will also assess self-administration using the PFS SDD, and the safety and tolerability of bepirovirsen.

The aim is to assess the efficacy and specific safety in an observational study of patients with Chronic hepatitis D (CHD) with prospective follow-up, with antiviral treatment of 2 mg Bulevirtide (BLV) +/- PEG-IFNα-2a and +/- NA given as part of the patient's routine medical care. Also, explorative endpoints of biomarkers in peripheral blood, saliva, fecal sample and/or intrahepatic markers/signatures, and quality of life outcomes will be assessed.

This project aims to evaluate two strategies of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) testing compared to standard of care among people who inject drugs at needle and syringe program (NSP) services in Australia, to see if it can improve the number of people who start treatment following an HCV diagnosis: HCV testing from collected dried blood spots sent to a central laboratory HCV testing using a point-of-care device at the NSP site HCV testing using standard of care at the NSP site

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) vaccine therapy in treating patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection that persists or progresses over a long period of time. Vaccines made from DNA may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells that express HCV infection.
