NCT07525401
Hepatitis is an inflammatory condition of the liver that has emerged as a significant global health concern due to its widespread prevalence. Data on ursodeoxycholic acid in acute viral hepatitis remain limited. Some studies suggest its positive effect in cholestatic phase of viral hepatitis. UDCA may reduce cholestatic symptoms like jaundice and pruritus potentially shortening hospital stay and improving patient outcomes. However, robust clinical data supporting its routine use in acute viral hepatitis are lacking, and current treatment remains largely supportive. Given the high burden of acute viral hepatitis in our region and the potential for UDCA to improve cholestatic phase of AVH there is a clear need for well-designed clinical studies evaluating its therapeutic role. This study aims to evaluate the role of oral ursodeoxycholic acid in biochemical recovery of patients with acute viral hepatitis. If positive role is confirmed, it will be incorporated in standard treatment and if no role is found unnecessary use will be discouraged. Null Hypothesis (H₀): Oral ursodeoxycholic acid has no significant effect on the bilirubin levels of patients with acute viral hepatitis. H₀: There is no statistically significant difference in bilirubin levels between patients receiving ursodeoxycholic acid and those receiving supportive care alone. Alternative Hypothesis (H₁): Oral ursodeoxycholic acid reduces bilirubin levels in patients with acute viral hepatitis. H₁: There is statistically significant difference in bilirubin levels between patients receiving ursodeoxycholic acid and those receiving supportive care alone.
NCT06576024
Approximately 400 HIV-infected participants aged 1-50 years old will be recruited according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Among them, more than 180 participants will be recruited in the immunogenicity and safety study. Each of them will receive 2 doses of the HAV vaccine with a 6-month interval. Blood samples will be drawn before and 1 month after each dose to detect the HAV antibodies to evaluate the immunogenicity of the vaccines. Other people will be recruited in the safety study and receive at least one dose of the HAV vaccine. All the participants will report the adverse events within one month after each dose.
NCT07032610
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) remains a common infection among Thai children. Two types of HAV vaccines are available in Thailand: an inactivated vaccine (I-HAV, administered in two doses 6 months apart) and a live-attenuated vaccine (L-HAV, administered as a single dose). However, neither vaccine is currently included in Thailand's Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI). In 2024, a randomized, active-controlled, open-label, non-inferiority trial was conducted to compare the immunogenicity and safety of the two-dose I-HAV with the single-dose L-HAV in healthy Thai children and adolescents aged 18 months to 18 years. This study aims to evaluate the long-term seropositive rate and immunogenicity of anti-HAV antibodies in this population following a single dose of L-HAV.
NCT06058416
This study is conducted among people aged 18-50 in Dandong City, an area with a high incidence of hepatitis A in recent years. 1000 qualified pariticipants with signed informed consent will be screened for anti-HAV antibodies by collecting blood sample of 3ml. One dose of hepatitis A vaccine will be administrated to all the pariticipants. Negative anti-HAV antibodies-negative subjects will recieve the second dose of hepatitis A vaccination, and 400 of them will be randomly selected and assigned to 4 groups with different interval of vaccination(6 month, 18 months, 36 months and 60 months). Blood samples will be collected before vaccination of each dose and on 28 days after each dose of vaccination to anti-HAV antibody test. Safety data will be collected within 28 days after each vaccination with a smartphone mini-program.
NCT00139113
Infants born to immune mothers and therefore having passively-transferred maternal antibody (PMA) to hepatitis A virus (HAV) have a blunted immune response to hepatitis A vaccine. We compared the immunogenicity of hepatitis A vaccine among infants with and without PMA, vaccinated on different schedules. We found that when vaccination is begun at or after 12 months of age, there was no difference in the immune response to the vaccine between infants born to immune vs. susceptible mothers.
NCT06460545
This study is a randomized, open-labeled phase IV clinical trial to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of concomitant administration of sIPV and HepA-L or HepA-I in children aged 18 months. The primary immunogenicity endpoints in all groups are the seroconversion rates of type I, II, and III anti-poliovirus neutralizing antibodies and the seroconversion rate of anti-hepatitis A virus antibodies 30 days after the final administration. The secondary immunogenicity endpoints are (1) the GMT/GMC of type I, II, and III anti-poliovirus neutralizing antibodies as well as the anti-hepatitis A virus antibodies 30 days after the final administration; (2) the seropositive rates of the anti-hepatitis A virus antibodies 30 days after the final administration; (3) the GMFI of type I, II, and III anti-poliovirus neutralizing antibodies as well as the anti-hepatitis A virus antibodies 30 days after the final administration. The secondary safety endpoints are the incidence of adverse events (AEs) within 30 minutes after each injection, the incidence of solicited local and systematic AEs in the period of solicitation after each injection, the incidence of unsolicited AEs in 30 days after each injection, the incidence of AEs in 30 days after each injection, and the incidence of serious adverse events in 6 months after administrations.
NCT03654664
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety after one primary dose and one additional dose of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine are administered in Korean healthy children aged 12-23 months.
NCT03855176
Though HAV is mainly transmitted through the fecal-oral route, infection by sexual intercourse and blood transfusion is also possible. Injection drug users (IDUs) and men who have sex with men (MSM) have a higher risk of acquiring HAV due to their behaviors. Reemerging threat of hepatitis A among MSM in Taiwan has been reported recently. Based on the guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of HIV/AIDS and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), Taiwan, vaccination of individuals against HAV with any of the following indications is recommended: HIV patients, adults with chronic hepatic disease, hemophilia, liver transplantation, occupational exposure, MSM, persons who use injection or noninjection illicit drugs, or persons traveling to or working in countries that have endemicity of HAV. In HIV-infected patients, the immunogenicity to HAV vaccination is sub-optimal in HIV-infected patients and the seroconversion rate is estimated 68-90% after administration of 2 or 3 doses of HAV vaccine. Furthermore, the antibody titers of HIV-infected patients following HAV vaccination are significantly lower compared to those of HIV-uninfected persons. The sub-optimal response among HIV-infected subjects remains an unresolved problem. In this study, the investigators aim to determine the to conduct a randomized clinical trial to compare the immunogenicity of 2 different doses of HAV vaccination (1 dose versus 2 doses) in HIV-infected patients who failed to achieve serologic response in the primary vaccination. This proposal will provide the solid evidence to elucidate the role of booster HAV vaccination in HIV-infected patients without response to primary HAV vaccination.
NCT04638335
Study to determine the proportion of travelers over the age of 60 years and travelers having lived in a tropical country for more than 5 years with anti-HAV antibodies. This will be done through a blood test. The investigators will then proceed with a short statistical analysis.
NCT00139139
Immune globulin is effective about 85% of the time in preventing hepatitis A in people who have been exposed, if it is given within 14 days of exposure. Several lines of evidence suggest that hepatitis A vaccine might also be effective in this setting, and vaccine has the advantage of providing long term protection. In this study, we compare how well immune globulin and hepatitis A vaccine work in preventing clinical hepatitis A in household contacts of persons with the disease. The study's hypothesis is that the the proportion of exposed household contacts who receive hepatitis A vaccine within 14 days of exposure and develop hepatitis A disease will be similar to the proportion of exposure household contacts who receive immune globulin within 14 days of exposure and develop hepatitis A disease.
NCT02445703
