Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis"

Background: Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a syndrome characterized by acute deterioration in the setting of chronic liver disease associated with high short-term mortality. Currently, there is no specific treatment for patients with ACLF. Our previous results showed that Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) could reduce the mortality rate and the incidence of complications of ACLF effectively. In this study, we aim to conduct the multi-center randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effect of unified CHM formulas and provide propagable and high-level evidence for clinical practice. Methods/design: This is a prospective, multicenter, centrally randomized controlled trial. Five hundred and ten patients diagnosed with HBV-related ACLF will be allocated in a 1:1 ratio to SMT group (standard medical therapy) and CHM group (CHM and SMT). The primary outcome is the transplant-free mortality rates at week 4, 8, 12, 24 and 48. Secondary outcomes include (1) the incidence of adverse reactions, (2) influence on liver function, (3) the incidence of serious complications and (4) the level of inflammatory cytokines. Discussion: The effectiveness and safety of CHM formulas are assessed in the treatment of ACLF.

The purpose of this study is to determine if ABI-H0731 given in combination with a standard of care (SOC) entecavir (ETV) is safe and effective in participants with chronic hepatitis B infection (cHBV)

This study is a Multiple Ascending Dose study to Explore the Tolerability, Safety and Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics of APG-1387 in Chronic Hepatitis B Patients.

To perform a study (20 patients) utilizing Hepatitis C positive (HCV Ab+/NAT -) donor lungs for hepatitis C negative recipients with post-operative surveillance and treatment only if a recipient infection occurs.

This is a research trial testing DUR-928 (an experimental medication). The purpose of this trial is to assess the dose related safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of DUR 928 in patients with moderate and severe alcoholic hepatitis (AH).

This study aimed to confirm efficacy and safety of KW-136, an investigational anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) drug, combined with sofosbuvir for treatment of naive and experienced adults chronically infected with HCV. Three hundred and sixty (360) non-cirrhotic and cirrhotic subjects were medicated with KW-136 60 mg daily and sofosbuvir 400 mg daily. The treatment course lasted 12 successive weeks; thereafter all the study participants entered into a 12-week treatment-free follow-up period and an additional 12-week extension treatment-free follow-up period.

This is a single arm multicenter pilot study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL) fix dose combination (FDC) in patients with acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of transplanting kidneys from Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected donors into recipients without HCV infection

The study will assess the safety and efficacy of AT-527 in combination with daclatasvir after 8 or 12 weeks of treatment.

A glycyrrhizin-containing product, Stronger Neo-Minophagen C TM (SNMC; Minophagen Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd.,Tokyo,Japan),is widely used in Japan for suppression of hepatitis activity and for prevention of disease progression in patients with hepatitis B virus- and HCV-induced chronic hepatitis. In Taiwan, SNMC has been licensed by Taiwan Food and Drug Administration for the indication of maintain hepatic function. Glycyrrhizin has been reported to mitigate hepatic inflammation by suppressing elevated alanine aminotransferase(ALT) levels and preventing disease progression. The effect of SNMC on acute deterioration of hepatic function following transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) was still unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of SNMC on acute deterioration of hepatic function following TACE.
