NCT02032875
This trial was open to participants who had received a liver transplant or had cirrhosis due to chronic HCV. All subjects were treated with daclatasvir+sofosbuvir+ribavirin and were followed for 24 weeks post treatment. Under certain conditions, the treatment duration could have been extended for cirrhotic participants. The study tested the efficacy and safety of this combination for treatment of HCV in cirrhotic and post transplant patients.
NCT00570336
The purpose of this study is to determine if CTS-1027 can lower elevated liver enzymes in patients with chronic HCV infection.
NCT01888900
Background: \- Some people who have chronic hepatitis C do not respond to the usual treatment with peginterferon and ribavirin. New chronic hepatitis treatments are being developed that may work better for different people. The treatments will look at how specific genes interact with the drugs. Researchers want to see how well these new drugs work in people whose chronic hepatitis C has not responded or only partly responded to the usual treatment drugs. Objectives: \- To compare new treatments for people with chronic hepatitis C. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have chronic hepatitis C that has not responded to standard treatments. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and urine samples will be collected. Liver scans and a biopsy will be taken before the start of treatment. * Participants will be separated into two groups. One group will have the new treatment drugs (assunaprevir and daclatasvir). The second group will have these two drugs as well as peginterferon and ribavirin. All participants will have an initial 4-day hospital stay with regular blood tests to see how the start of the treatment works. * The first group will take the new study drug tablets daily for 24 weeks. Those who do not respond to this treatment will also start to take peginterferon and ribavirin, and the treatment will continue for 24 weeks after starting the additional drugs. * The second group will take all four drugs according to the standard dosing schedule for 24 weeks. * Treatment will be monitored with frequent blood tests. Liver scans, biopsies, and other tests will be performed as directed by the study doctors. * Participants will have 24 weeks of regular followup visits.
NCT03819322
This is an open-label, pilot trial to test the safety and efficacy of transplantation of livers from Hepatitis C seropositive non-viremic (HCV Ab+/NAT-) and HCV seropositive viremic (HCV Ab+/NAT+) donors to HCV seronegative recipients on the liver transplant waitlist. Treatment and prophylaxis will be administered, using a transmission-triggered approach for the first scenario (HCV Ab+/NAT- donors, arm 1) and a prophylaxis approach for the later scenario (HCV Ab+/NAT+ donors, arm 2).
NCT03669835
This clinical trial studies the effect of sublimated mare milk supplement on patients with hepatitis C.
NCT04596475
This trial will be done in participants who undergo transplantation of heart, kidney or lung at University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and receive a hepatitis C infected donor organ. In this trial, the plan is to start hepatitis C treatment just before transplant surgery and treat for a short one-week course to see if hepatitis C infection can be prevented in the transplant recipient. The plan is to perform this trial in 10 participants and if successful, the next step is to try to make it standard of care as prevention of infection is better than treating hepatitis C after discharge from transplant surgery (which is usually a 12 week standard treatment).
NCT00728936
First-in-humans, phase 1, dose-escalation study with 4 dose levels of single-agent IMO-2125.
NCT02269059
This is a two-part dose-finding trial of MK-7680 in participants with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection of genotype (GT)1 (Part I) and GT3 (Part 2). The primary hypothesis is that daily administration of a safe and well tolerated dose of MK-7680 will produce a decrease in HCV viral load.
NCT01438320
The goal of this study is to translate laboratory findings that Quercetin, a bioflavonoid, is safe and has antiviral activity in people with hepatitis C.
NCT04546802
Subjects with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection, genotype 1 or 4 and with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and a complete response to HCC therapy will be randomised to immediate or delayed (6 months) HCV therapy with Elbasvir (MK-8742) and Grazoprevir (MK-5172) \[EBR/GZR\].
NCT04395118
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial comparing two strategies to promote HCV screening, follow-up testing, and treatment among Parkland patients who are 18 years or older who have elevated liver functioning test (LFT) results: in reach with electronic medical record alerts and provider education vs. combination of in reach and provider education plus mailed outreach and patient navigation.
NCT02673489
The purpose of this study is to determine whether 24 weeks of Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir with Ribavirin is safe and effective in the treatment of genotype 3 hepatitis C infected patients with liver cirrhosis.
NCT00005657
The diverse clinical syndromes associated with hepatitis C underscore the multifactorial and polygenic nature of HCV infection. Both viral and host factors likely contribute to variations in infection outcome, disease susceptibility and progression, and treatment response. This protocol will focus on the immunogenetics of HCV infection. Various candidate genes, most of them related to host immune response in microbial infection, have defined genetic polymorphisms that have been associated with variable manifestations of infections including malaria, tuberculosis, leprosy, AIDS and hepatitis B. In this proposal, we plan to collect peripheral blood mononuclear cells as a source of DNA from approximately 1500 patients with HCV infection, analyze genetic polymorphisms of various candidate genes in association with viral clearance, disease progression or treatment response, and characterize the functional consequences of these polymorphisms in patients with well-defined clinical sequelae of HCV infection. We will also collect blood from patients with other forms of liver diseases (approximately 300) or normal volunteers (approximately 200) as controls. By identifying relevant host factors genetically and investigating their molecular interactions with HCV, we may gain additional insights into HCV pathogenesis and uncover new potential targets for vaccine development and treatment intervention.
NCT00055445
This study will measure the safety and tolerability of three different doses of IdB 1016 in patients with hepatitis C disease who have not responded to or are poor candidates for interferon-based therapies. NOTE: THE STUDY WILL ONLY RECRUIT STUDY PARTICIPANTS AT UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON MEDICAL CENTER IN SEATTLE
NCT00439959
This study represents the first administration of GSK625433 in humans. The study is designed to evaluate initial safety and tolerability in healthy adults as well as anti-viral activity in Hepatitis C(HVC) infected adults. The way the human body processes GSK625433 will also be investigated.
NCT00845676
This study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection during the first 6 months after acquiring HCV among people who already have pre-existing HIV infection will result in improved responses to HCV therapy with a shorter duration of infection.
NCT04017338
The success of transplantation is significantly hindered by the lack of sufficient number of available donors. Many potential donor organs cannot be utilized in clinical transplantation because donors have chronic viral infections such as hepatitis C (HCV) infection. This study will test the possibility of safely transplanting organs from HCV-infected donors into HCV-uninfected recipients. Prior to transplantation, recipients will receive an initial dose of highly effective antiviral prophylaxis using approved direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) Glecaprevir/Pibrentasvir (G/P) and they will also receive ezetimibe, a cholesterol-lowering medication that also blocks entry of HCV into liver cells. They will then receive daily dosing of the same medications for 7 days after transplant. The aim of the study is to show that transplantation of organs from HCV+ donors is safe in the era of DAAs. The investigators hypothesize that rates of HCV transmission to recipients will be prevented by the use of DAA prophylaxis and any HCV transmission that does occur will be readily treatable and curable. If successful, the knowledge from this study can have a large impact to patients with end stage organ diseases by providing a large novel source of donors for organ transplantations.
NCT00248339
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of epoetin-alpha will allow patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection to be treated with higher doses of peginterferon-alpha-2b and ribavirin, thus increasing chances at lower viral levels and raising sustained virologic response.
NCT01276756
Chronic hepatitis C has become an endemic disease in Egypt with a rising prevalence (genotype 4), worldwide it also poses a significant health burden. To date standard of care treatment (pegylated interferon and ribavirin) give modest results with a sustained virological response (SVR) of about 50%. Several pharmaceutical and herbal agents have been used with an aim to improve current results. Recent reports have suggested an increased SVR with the addition of Nitazoxanide to standard of care. The results are preliminary and need to be confirmed. This is a randomized trial to assess the efficacy of nitazoxanide added to standard of care compared to standard of care alone.
NCT02568332
This study is aimed at assessing the safety of candidate Hepatitis C (Hep C) vaccines AdCh3NSmut1 and MVA-NSmut when administered to Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) seropositive individuals. This study also aims to assess the cellular immune response generated by these vaccines when administered as mentioned above.
