Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis"

The purpose of this study is to compare the liver toxicity in HIV-infected patients with chronic hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C, who start a new antiretroviral drug regimen, as well as the influence of the degree of pre-existing liver fibrosis on the incidence of liver toxicity.

This observational, multi-center, open-label study will evaluate the prognostic factors of long-term-response and the safety of Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) in patients with HbeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B. Data will be collected for 96 weeks.

A follow-up study to assess resistance and durability of response to 3 experimental drugs ABT-450/r, ABT-267, and ABT-333 in participants who have participated in AbbVie Phase 2 or 3 clinical studies with these agents for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV). Studies include: M11-646 (NCT01716585), M11-652 (NCT01464827), M12-746 (NCT01306617), M12-998 (NCT01458535), M13-098 (NCT01715415), M13-099 (NCT01704755), M13-386 (NCT01563536), M13-389 (NCT01674725)' M13-393 (NCT01685203), M13-961 (NCT01767116), M14-002 (NCT01833533), and M14-103 (NCT01911845).

This multicenter study will evaluate the correlation of interleukin 28B (IL28B) genotypes with disease characteristics and demographics in treatment-naïve and treatment-experienced chronic hepatitis C patients, including patients with HIV co-infection. There will be a single study visit for testing.

This study will examine viral dynamic responses in subjects with chronic hepatitis C and hemophilia when treated with pegylated interferon + ribavirin and telaprevir.

This is a three-year (except for participants with chronic kidney disease [CKD] or cirrhosis) multicenter study to follow participants who received at least one dose of grazoprevir (MK-5172) in a previous study to determine whether they remain hepatitis C virus (HCV)-Ribonucleic acid (RNA) negative over time, and to determine if they have developed antiviral resistance. The study will also evaluate long-term adverse events in this population. Participants from MK-5172-052 (NCT02092350) with CKD or cirrhosis will be followed for five years.

This prospective, multicenter, observational study will evaluate on-treatment predictors of response in patients with HBeAg positive or HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B receiving treatment with peginterferon alfa-2a (PEGASYS®) in accordance with local labeling and the summary of product characteristics. Data will be collected from patients for the duration of their treatment and for up to 24 weeks thereafter.

This multicenter, observational study will assess the efficacy and the safety of Pegasys (peginterferon alfa 2a) in dual- or triple therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Patients will receive Pegasys and/or ribavirin and/or a protease inhibitor according to local guidelines. Data will be collected for 96 weeks.

Hepatitis during anti-tuberculous treatment (HATT) has been an obstacle in managing TB patients, especially in those with viral hepatitis. A previous study revealed the risk of HATT is significantly higher in TB patients with high serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level than those with low HBV DNA level. Based on these findings, we thus hypothesize that the risk of HATT in TB patients with high baseline serum HBV DNA level can be reduced by concomitant use of anti-HBV agent. In this proposal, we will conduct a prospective randomized clinical study to assess the reduction of HATT risk by using entecavir in TB patients with high baseline serum HBV DNA level, and to evaluate the risk of other treatment-related adverse events in two hospitals.

This prospective observational study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of two approved pegylated interferon-based direct acting antiviral triple therapies in patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1. Patients receiving pegylated interferon (e.g. Pegasys) and ribavirin plus either telaprevir or boceprivir in accordance with local standard of care and US labeling will be followed for the duration of their treatment and for up to 24 weeks post-treatment.
