Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of DAA-based regimens in the clinical practice in HIV/HCV-coinfected patients. Hypothesis: The efficacy and tolerability of DAA-based regimens in the clinical practice is different to what is observed in clinical trials in HIV/HCV-coinfected patients.

Chronic hepatitis B virus infection is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and entecavir were licensed for the treatment of hepatitis B virus infection. In this study, the investigators will try to make comparison between Entecavir and Tenofovir and investigate the efficacy.

A multicenter, observational study to evaluate the safety of Euforvac-Hib vaccine for active primary immunization against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B and Haemophilus influenza type B in infants.

This is a prospective, cohort study in Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University, Egypt. From June to December, 2016, investigators will follow up patients with chronic Hepatitis C virus genotype 4 receiving daclatasvir-sofosbuvir treatment regimen within the national program of Egyptian ministry of health and population. The primary outcomes are safety of the treatment and the sustained virologic response 12 weeks after discontinuation of therapy. For the secondary outcomes, investigators will measure the change in health related quality of life and investigate the genetic sequence of viral RNA of resistant patients.

The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of anti-viral treatment on long-term outcome on patients with chronic hepatitis B.

IL-33 is a recently identified number of the IL-1 family. Hepatic over-expression of IL-33 has been recently linked to liver fibrosis. ST-2 exerts pro-inflammatory effects of IL-33. We aimed to determine ability of ST2 to predict fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of polymorphisms in the IL-1 gene complex on the development of chronic hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Patients with hepatitis C show impaired neutrophil function. It is not known whether this is a direct of an indirect phenomenon. Using bone marrow biopsies from patients with hepatitis C it is possible to see whether neutrophil granulocyte progenitors are already infected with hepatitis C.

Evaluation of novel point of care Hepatitis B diagnostic assays.

The purpose of this study is to identify the gaps in diagnosing and managing hepatitis C infected patients so that interventions can be targeted to address these problem areas in order to optimize care of these patients.
