410 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is being done to determine the effectiveness of using a combination of two different drugs in preventing the transmission of HCV from a HCV positive donor to a HCV negative solid organ recipient.
The purpose of this study is to learn how 12 weeks of HCV treatment with elbasvir and grazoprevir (brand name Zepatier) impacts your kidney function.
Placebo controlled, double-blind, multicenter study utilizing standard of care (SOC) treatment (ribavirin plus pegylated interferon) in combination with CTS-1027 in genotype 1 chronic Hepatitis C (HCV) patients who were null-responders to previous SOC therapy(ies). Null-responders are defined as patients who failed to achieve a greater than 2 log drop in HCV-RNA (Hepatitis C Ribonucleic acid, also known as "viral load") levels after 12 weeks of treatment (know as an "early virologic response", or EVR) during previous SOC therapy. If, during previous SOC treatment, a patient had a less than 2 log decline in HCV-RNA at Week 12 but greater than 2 log decline in HCV-RNA at any time from Week 12 to Week 24, that patient is not a null-responder, and is excluded from study participation. If, during previous SOC treatment, a Week 12 HCV-RNA was not obtained, the post Week 12 response must have been \< 2 log decline (and still HCV-RNA positive) in order for the patient to be defined as a null-responder. Patients will be screened and have up to 4 weeks to qualify for study entry. During this screening period, clinical and laboratory tests will be performed. At Week 0/Day 1, patients will undergo centralized, stratified (based on ethnicity), randomization to one of four treatment arms: SOC + one of three doses of CTS-1027 or SOC + placebo. Study treatment will last 24, 48, or 60 weeks, based on each patient's response to study treatment. SOC + placebo patients who do not show a virologic response after 12 weeks of therapy will be rolled onto SOC + 15mg CTS-1027, while maintaining the study blind.
Hepatitis C (HCV) is a disease that affects the liver. ITX 5061 is a new medication that is being tested to treat HCV. This study will evaluate the safety of ITX 5061 and examine different doses of the medication to evaluate which dose is the most effective at lowering the amount of HCV in the blood.
The purpose of this study is to determine if IDN-6556, when given orally, is safe and effective in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection.
The purposes of this Phase 1/2 study are to examine the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of ISIS 14803, when given in combination with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, to patients who either failed to have at least a 100-fold HCV reduction at Week 12 of standard therapy or still have detectable HCV at Week 24.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a low-barrier treatment program can help people with hepatitis C virus (HCV) who are in jail start and complete treatment more easily. This study focuses on adults at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections who have active HCV and are awaiting trial. The study asks: * Can a simplified, low-barrier HCV treatment program work in a jail setting? * Do participants finish treatment and get cured using this approach? All participants will receive a 12-week course of the HCV medication sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (Epclusa). If they are released before completing treatment, they will take the remaining doses with them. Community Health Workers (CHWs) will help support participants after release, including reminding them to take medications and helping them get follow-up lab work. Researchers will measure: * Whether participants are cured of HCV * Whether the treatment approach is easy to use (feasible), acceptable, and followed correctly (fidelity) * Whether the program could be used in other jails or expanded in the future This study may help bring HCV treatment to more people in jail, reduce community spread of the virus, and support national goals to eliminate HCV.
The metabolism of PF-00868554 is primarily mediated by CYP3A, and it is anticipated that hepatic impairment will modify PF-00868554 plasma concentrations. Hence, it is important to determine the impact of varying degrees of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics, safety and toleration of 200 mg PF-00868554 administered as a single-dose.
A major impediment to emergency department (ED)-based HIV/HCV screening success is that often ED patients at risk for, or later diagnosed with, HIV and HCV decline testing. In this R01 project, the research team will assess how well a promising, easy-to-use, one-time, minimal-training-needed, very brief persuasive health communication intervention (PHCI) increases acceptance of testing among adult ED patients who either currently, formerly or never injected drugs and initially declined HIV/HCV screening. The research team will conduct a randomized, controlled trial (RCT) at EDs within the Mount Sinai Health System to compare the efficacy of the PHCI when delivered by a video vs. an HIV/HCV counselor. Patients who initially declined HIV/HCV screening will be stratified by injection-drug use (IDU) history cohorts: (1) current/former PWIDs, (2) never/non-PWIDs. Within each IDU history cohort, the research team will randomly assign participants (1:1:1) to a PHCI delivered by: (1) a video with captions, (2) a video without captions, (3) an HIV/HCV counselor. This R01 project will be conducted at Mount Sinai affiliate hospitals EDs. For Aim 2, the research team will determine if screening acceptance is similar across IDU history cohorts. For Aim 3, the research team will further compare the two delivery forms of the PHCI through a health economics assessment, both independent of IDU history and within each IDU history cohort.
This study will test the effectiveness, implementation outcomes, and cost effectiveness of a community-tailored, harm reduction kiosk in reducing HIV, hepatitis C, and overdose risk behavior in rural Appalachia. The proposed project will take place in two counties in Appalachian Kentucky, an epicenter for the intertwined national crises of injection drug use, overdoses, and hepatitis C.
Phase 2 study designed to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Faldaprevir and TD-6450 alone or in combination with other antivirals for a 12-week treatment duration in treatment-naïve participants with genotype 1b hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
Phase 2a study designed to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Faldaprevir and TD-6450 in combination with Ribavirin for a 12-week treatment duration in treatment-naïve participants with genotype 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.
This is a study of combination direct-acting antiviral agents (DAA) with or without ribavirin (RBV) in patients with chronic Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of co-administration of glecaprevir (ABT-493)/pibrentasvir (ABT 530) plus sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) in hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1 - 6-infected participants (including non-cirrhotic, or cirrhotic with compensated cirrhosis participants) who had experienced virologic failure in an AbbVie parent clinical study.
To evaluate for the presence of HCV Core protein, HCV RNA and SPP in the placenta and fetal membranes using paraffin-embedded sections and post-delivery specimens respectively. In parallel, we will assess placental tissue for evidence of HCV infection using a novel in situ hybridization technique and translate our in vitro findings to these in vivo samples. Our overall hypothesis is that cytotrophoblasts at the maternal-fetal interface within the placenta serve as a "barrier" that must be crossed during vertical transmission and that cytotrophoblasts are permissive to HCV at a low level that may be enhanced under certain conditions. By comparing the regulation of key steps in the intracellular life cycle of HCV in cytotrophoblasts to highly permissive hepatocytes, significant differences in HCV regulation should be revealed. Based on our preliminary data, our working hypothesis is that HCV Core protein is differentially processed in cytotrophoblasts compared to hepatocytes.
This is a Phase 1 Open-Label, Parallel-Group, Single-Dose Study to evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of GS-5816 in subjects with normal hepatic function and moderate or severe hepatic impairment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and antiviral effects of multiple intravenous doses of ANZ-521 in patients with chronic Hepatitis C virus.
The purposes of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of a vaccine (the HCV E1/E2/MF59 vaccine) against hepatitis C (HCV). The vaccine will be given to 60 healthy adult volunteers (aged 18-45 years) and the study will compare the immune system (the body's protective response) response to the HCV E1/E2 vaccine given at different dosage levels: 4 micrograms, 20 micrograms, or 100 micrograms in MF59 adjuvant (substance that can improve vaccine effectiveness). The volunteers will be assigned randomly (by chance) to 1 of 4 different groups. Volunteers in each group will receive a shot of the vaccine or a placebo (shot with no medication). Participants will be involved in study related procedures for up to 71 weeks, which includes blood samples, recording symptoms on a diary card, and 4 vaccine or placebo injections.
A multi-site prospective, all comers study that was conducted at geographically diverse locations in the United States.
HCV infection is a global health problem. HCV mainly affects liver cells and causes the liver to become inflamed and damaged. This study will evaluate how safe and effective glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) is in adult and adolescent participants with acute HCV infection. GLE/PIB is an approved drug for the treatment of chronic HCV. Around 283 participants at least 12 years of age with acute HCV Infection will be enrolled in approximately 70 sites worldwide. Participants will receive oral tablets of GLE/PIB once daily (QD) for 8 weeks and will be followed for 12 weeks after the end of treatment. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, monitoring for side effects and completing questionnaires.
To determine the efficacy and safety of transplanting HCV positive kidney allografts to HCV sero-negative patients who are on the waiting list.
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).
To provide proof-of-concept data on the efficacy/safety of transplanting HCV positive donor grafts in HCV sero-negative liver recipients who are currently listed.
The study aims to compare the effect of a cardiovascular education package intervention on treatment-seeking behavioral outcomes of HCV+ patients. This prospective multicenter trial will compare outcomes between the intervention group (HCV+ patients receiving the enhanced education package) and the control group (HCV+ patients receiving the standard of care, the basic education package). The primary outcome measured will be successful linkage to hepatology for a discussion of HCV treatment options. The secondary outcome measured will be linkage to primary care for chronic disease management.
To demonstrate that colocation treatment of substance use disorder and Hepatitis C infection concurrently while proving addiction counselling will achieve increased duration of sobriety and elimination of Hepatitis C virus in study participants.
Open label single center study for the donation of HCV positive kidneys to HCV negative recipients with interventional treatment to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.
A Phase 3b, single arm, open-label, multicenter study in treatment naïve adults with chronic HCV infection and compensated cirrhosis to assess the safety of 8 weeks of treatment with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir and to demonstrate the efficacy of the sustained virologic response 12 weeks post dosing (SVR12) rates of 8 weeks of treatment with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir compared to the historical SVR12 rates of 12 weeks of treatment with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir.
The objectives of this study are to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir adult formulation in adolescents ages 12 to 17 years and a pediatric formulation of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir in children ages 3 to \< 12 years.
