NCT05690607
During the Covid-19 pandemic era, patients indicated that they find a model of care incorporating remote consultations to be acceptable \[1-3\]. Remote accessibility to care can be enhanced by using new technology to allow small volume testing for routine blood samples. This study aims to prospectively validate the use of small volume blood sampling for routine HIV-1 and Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) viral load (VL), liver function tests (LFTs) and creatinine, and assess the acceptability of this method of blood sampling to people living with HIV (PLWH). These tests form the usual minimum required for safe monitoring on a routine basis to determine viral activity, liver and renal function in patients either on or off antiviral therapy. The UK based Doctors Laboratory TINIES small volume blood testing kits comprise microcontainers manufactured by BD Diagnostics designed for sample collection from skin puncture, along with home testing pack with lancets, instructions and Royal Mail postal packs. We will collect TINIES samples alongside routine venepuncture samples in people attending their routine clinic follow ups. We will then send kits to different participants to collect samples in their own home, along with a follow up questionnaire (written/online). Finally, we will conduct a more in-depth telephone interview for a subset of patients to qualitatively assess acceptability. Routine use of this method of testing could revolutionise care of people living with chronic blood borne viruses, for example HIV and chronic HBV. TINIES could enable remote monitoring, increasing ease of access to care, reducing clinic appointment burden in otherwise healthy individuals, and reduce labour costs in the NHS, for example, by reducing phlebotomy appointments.
NCT04019561
A Phase 2 study with 4 treatment groups of two differing doses and matched placebos designed to evaluate the safety (including hepatic safety), tolerability and pharmacodynamic effects of two dose levels of MEDI0382 in obese subjects with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)/non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The subjects will have biopsy-confirmed NAFLD/NASH with liver fibrosis stage F1, F2 or F3. Approximately 72 subjects will be randomized
