Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GC1102 in combination of Nucleo(t)ide analogues (NAs) in patients with chronic hepatitis B

To assess whether PEG-INF (Peglyated - interferon) Add-on therapy in patients of CHB who have achieved a maintained viral suppression (HBV DNA PCR( polymerase chain reaction) <200 for last 3-6 month) with NA's can result in increased rate of HBV infection eradication (HbsAg is undetectable by serological blood testing with or without seroconversion to HBs antibody).

Pegylated interferon α-2a(Peg-IFN-α) not only inhibit viral replication, but also play an important role in immune regulation, while Nucleoside analog(ue) drugs only inhibit viral replication. In hepatitis B infection, NKs are the main effector cells in early antiviral innate immune response. This study was aimed at investigating the changes of NKs frequency and function, and the expression of costimulatory molecules during Peg-IFN-αand nucleoside analog(ue) therapy.Meanwhile, investigators want to verify whether Peg IFN - alpha suppressed the virus and the reduction of virus led to the recovery of NKs function, or Peg IFN - alpha enhanced NKs function which gave rise to the decline of the virus.

This is an unblinded, observational trial of sofosbuvir-velpatasvir in adult health care workers who are exposed to hepatitis C virus from needlestick injury with hollow-bore needles.

An open-label,pilot study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of plasma exchange combination of immunosuppressive regimens, for the remission of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH).

Portal hypertension is a common pathology in chronic liver disease, particularly in liver cirrhosis. Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) is one of most etiologies of liver cirrhosis in China. The basic reason for portal hypertension in HBV is the largely deposition of hepatic extracellular matrixes which causes high pressure in liver vessels. One of the most common symptoms of cirrhotic portal hypertension is gastroesophageal varices.The effective inhibition of HBV can partially stop or reverse liver fibrosis in patients with chronic Hepatitis and liver cirrhosis due to HBV and the anti-fibrotic strategy focusing on the regulation of hepatic extracellular matrix may have a great benefit. Therefore, antivirals therapy is also a basic treatment for low-grade cirrhotic portal hypertension. Fuzheng Huayu has been found to enhance the degradation of collagens in fibrotic liver and have a good action against liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B. However, there are no high quality clinical evidences which can demonstrate if the combination of anti-viral and anti-fibrotic therapy can relieve the pressure of liver vessels and decline incidence rate and bleeding rate of gastroesophageal varices.

Evaluate the efficacy of 12 or 8 weeks treatment with Grazoprevir/Elbasvir in Early Chronic Hepatitis C GT1,4 in HIV co-infected patients and evaluate the safety and tolerability of Grazoprevir + Elbasvir in HIV-HCV co-infected patients.

This is a proof of concept, single center study for the donation of HCV-positive kidney to HCV negative recipient patients, with preemptive, interventional treatment with 12 weeks of commercially available DAA therapy to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.

This is an open, uncontrolled study of twenty-five chronic HCV infected patients carried out at Yassin Abdel Ghaffar Charity Center for Liver Disease and Research. The aim of this study is to investigate the safety & efficacy of combined therapy ledipasvir (LDV) and sofosbuvir (SOF) for treating HCV Genotype 4 in children aged 8 to 18. Due to previous positive results in other clinical studies of this drug it is expected that the drug will have high safety and high efficacy. Safety will be measured by checking for adverse effects, while efficacy will be measured by Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) detecting viral nucleic acids in blood samples.

This randomized controlled trial is designed to evaluate safety, effectiveness and pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationships associated with three different Nitazoxanide (NTZ) treatment regimens added to Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF), Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) or Entecavir (ETV) in treating Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB).
