NCT02641158
Primary Objective: This study will evaluate the effectiveness of an HCV Care Facilitation intervention in moving HIV/HCV co-infected substance users forward along the HCV care continuum (compared with a Control group). Primary Hypothesis: The number of steps achieved along the HCV care continuum will differ between the two study groups over the 14-month follow-up period. Secondary Objectives: Component 1 (Long-term CTN 0049 follow-up): Using the CTN 0064 baseline data (self-report, medical record abstraction and biological data), the following CTN 0049 primary and secondary outcomes in participants who consented to the CTN 0064 protocol will be re-analyzed to evaluate latent and/or enduring effects of the CTN 0049 interventions: 1. HIV virological suppression 2. HIV primary care visit attendance 3. All-cause mortality
NCT02249182
The primary objective of the PK Lead-in Phase of the study is to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) and confirm the dose of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed dose combination (FDC) in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected pediatric participants. The PK Lead-in Phase will also evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of 10 days of dosing of LDV/SOF FDC in HCV-infected pediatric participants. The Treatment Phase will be initiated by age cohort after confirmation of age-appropriate LDV/SOF FDC dosage levels. Participants from the PK Lead-in Phase will immediately rollover into the Treatment Phase with no interruption of study drug administration. The primary objective of the Treatment Phase is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of LDV/SOF FDC +/- ribavirin (RBV) for 12 or 24 weeks in pediatric participants with HCV. During screening, participants will receive placebo to match LDV/SOF FDC to assess ability to swallow tablets.
NCT03092375
The study will enroll well-compensated cirrhotic as well as non-cirrhotic subjects treatment experienced with an NS5a Inhibitor + sofosbuvir and will include patients who did not complete the prescribed duration due to adverse event or any reason other than for non/poor compliance. Subjects will be randomized to 12 or 16 weeks of treatment.
NCT02039219
The main purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of Obeticholic Acid when used in patients with moderately severe alcoholic hepatitis. The researchers suspect that individuals with alcoholic hepatitis have certain abnormalities in how their body handles bile acids (a product made by the liver on a daily basis) produced by the liver. Obeticholic acid has been shown to affect bile acid abnormalities and thus it is possible that obeticholic acid may improve liver condition in individuals with alcoholic hepatitis.
NCT02601820
The PROP UP research study is funded by The Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). PROP UP is a multi-centered prospective observational study that will evaluate all-oral treatment regimens for chronic hepatitis C viral (HCV) infection regarding several patient-reported outcomes (PROs) such as HCV-associated symptoms, treatment side effects, medication adherence, out of pocket costs, comorbid conditions, and long-term benefits of cure and harms of treatment to compare PROs of different treatment regimens, treatment durations, and patient subgroups. Participants will be recruited from 9 U.S. liver centers. Approximately 1920 patients with HCV infection who are prescribed a regimen containing Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir(SOF/LED), SOF/Velpatasvir(SOF/VEL), Grazoprevir/Elbasvir(GRZ/ELB), OBV/PTV/r + DSV (PRoD), or daclatasvir/SOF (DAC/SOF) will be recruited and approximately 1600 patients who are approved and begin HCV treatment will be enrolled in the longitudinal study. PRO surveys will be evaluated before, during and after HCV treatment. PROP UP is a collaborative effort between behavioral and biomedical researchers, a patient engagement group and a patient advocacy organization.
NCT02686762
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial involving subjects with a diagnosis of "definite NASH" with fibrosis (excluding cirrhosis) as determined by the central histopathologist. Upon successful screening, subjects will be randomized to receive either emricasan 50 mg BID or emricasan 5 mg BID or matching placebo BID.
NCT03038763
The investigators aim to determine the prevalence of hepatitis C in the adult children of female baby boomers. During the years baby boomers were becoming pregnant, hepatitis C testing was either not available or was not standard of care. Because of this, participants' children may be unaware of participants' risk of hepatitis C.
NCT02607800
The primary objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) fixed dose combination (FDC) for 8 weeks with that of SOF/VEL FDC for 12 weeks in direct-acting antiviral-naive participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
NCT02239562
The purpose of this study is to study the safety and tolerability of synthetic PreImplantation Factor (sPIF) in female patients with autoimmune hepatitis. Autoimmune hepatitis is a disease where the patient's immune system produces an inappropriate immune response against their own liver. PreImplantation Factor is a substance that is secreted by viable fetuses during pregnancy. PIF apparently initiates both maternal tolerance preventing the loss/rejection of the fetus. Synthetic PIF (sPIF) successfully translates PIF endogenous properties to pregnant and non-pregnant immune disorders. sPIF was found to be effective in preclinical models of autoimmunity and transplantation (published). Specifically sPIF protected the liver against immune attack. Toxicity studies (mice, dogs) have shown that high-dose sPIF administration for 2 weeks followed by 2 weeks observation period demonstrated a high safety profile. This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and the blood level of this synthetic version of this natural compound in the circulation.
NCT02096263
The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' Infanrix hexa vaccine when administered to healthy infants as primary vaccination at 2, 4 and 6 months of age, co-administered with Prevnar and Rotarix with a booster dose of GSK Biologicals' Infanrix and Hiberix vaccines at 15-18 months of age.
NCT03117569
The aim of this study is to determine if treatment monitoring schedule for chronic HCV patients treated with glecaprevir (300mg)/pibrentasvir (120mg) can be simplified. Data has shown that direct acting antiviral (DAA) regimen of glecaprevir (300mg)/pibrentasvir (120mg), a protease inhibitor and NS5A inhibitor respectively , provides key features for HCV treatment simplification. Eligible participants (naïve pre-cirrhosis chronic HCV patients) will be randomized (1:2) to the standard or simplified monitoring arm and will receive treatment for 8 weeks. One post treatment visit will be conducted 12 weeks after the final dose of study medication to evaluate the proportion of patients with undetectable HCV RNA at this timepoint (SVR12).
NCT02787304
The purpose of this study is to determine if the investigational treatment volixibat (SHP626) is safe, tolerable and effective in adults with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
NCT02217475
The purpose of this study is to determine whether cenicriviroc is effective and safe in the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in adult participants with liver fibrosis.
NCT03118843
The primary objectives of this study are to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir (SOF/VEL/VOX) fixed-dose combination (FDC) for 12 weeks in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with or without cirrhosis, who did not achieve sustained viral response (SVR) after receiving prior treatment in a Gilead-sponsored HCV treatment study of direct-acting antiviral (DAA)-containing regimens.
NCT03212521
A study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir(GLE)/pibrentasvir(PIB) in treatment-naïve participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes 1-6 infection and with an aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI) of less than or equal to 1.
NCT02196831
Liver disease is one of the leading co-morbidities of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is present in approximately 30-40% of patients with HIV infection. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a more severe form of NAFLD in which increased liver fat is also accompanied by inflammation, cellular damage, and fibrosis. NAFLD is most prevalent in patients who also have increased visceral adiposity, and our group has previously shown that HIV-infected individuals with increased visceral adiposity generally have decreased growth hormone secretion. Tesamorelin is a growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) analogue that increases endogenous growth hormone secretion. Tesamorelin is FDA-approved for the reduction of visceral fat in HIV-infected individuals. In a previous study, treatment with tesamorelin in HIV-infected individuals selected for abdominal adiposity reduced liver fat. The current study is designed to test the effect of tesamorelin on liver fat and steatohepatitis in HIV-infected individuals who have NAFLD. The investigators hypothesize that tesamorelin will reduce liver fat and will also ameliorate the inflammation, fibrosis, and hepatocellular damage seen in conjunction with NASH.
NCT03036852
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate safety, efficacy, and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) for 12 weeks in adults on dialysis for end stage renal disease (ESRD) with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection of any genotype.
