Active clinical trials for "Hepatitis"

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of sofosbuvir (GS-7977; PSI-7977) administered in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavirin (PEG/RBV) in treatment-naive patients with HCV genotypes 1,4,5,6, or indeterminate genotype.

Patients for whom treatment with peginterferon plus ribavirin was unsuccessful represent a category of patients for whom there is currently no worthwhile therapeutic alternative. Several studies have shown that there is a relation between plasma ribavirin concentrations and treatment response. Adequate ribavirin plasma concentrations, especially during the first 12 weeks of treatment, should be associated with a better chance of response to the treatment. The strategy for this study will be to use a loading dose of ribavirin before beginning the treatment with peg-interferon, thereby allowing for optimal ribavirin concentrations to be reached, and possibly improving the effectiveness of the treatment.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of TMC435 compared with placebo in participants who are infected with genotype 1 hepatitis C virus who have never received treatment before. Participants will also receive peginterferon alpha-2a and ribavirin as part of their treatment.

This is a phase I pilot study to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of a novel hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry inhibitor (ITX 5061) in patients with HCV infection undergoing liver transplantation.

This phase II, multicentric, national pilot trial is designed to estimate the sustained virological response rate (SVR) following a 12 weeks treatment by telaprevir combined with a 48 or 72 weeks treatment by peginterferon and ribavirin, based upon the rapid virological response (RVR) at week 8 (4 weeks after telaprevir start), and to compare the observed SVR to 20%, a rate determining a significant therapeutic benefit in this population of patients. The primary endpoint will be the SVR defined as undetectable HCV-RNA measured 24 weeks after the end of therapy (EOT).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of a treatment with TMC435 in combination with peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin in patients who did not clear their hepatitis C infection with peginterferon alfa-2a and ribavirin alone within a previous trial conducted by Tibotec, or who participated in Tibotec trials in which antivirals directed against hepatitis C virus (HCV) were evaluated for short periods of time.

The purpose of this study is to compare the rates of sustained virologic response in each cohort (Black-African Americans, Latinos) in this study to historical rate.

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of grazoprevir (MK-5172) when administered in combination with peginterferon alfa-2b (Peg-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV) in treatment-naïve (TN) participants with chronic hepatitis C.

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of BI 201335 given for 12 or 24 weeks in combination with PegIFN/RBV given for 48 weeks as compared to PegIFN/RBV alone in chronic GT-1 hepatitis C virus infected patients who failed a prior PegIFN/RBV treatment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of co-administration of ABT-450 (also known as paritaprevir) with ritonavir (ABT-450/r) and ABT-267 (also known as ombitasvir) in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus infection.
