904 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The goal of this study is to determine if GPS tracking can enhance adherence to hepatitis C treatment among patients diagnosed with hepatitis C infection who are also experiencing unsheltered homelessness and receiving street medicine. Research will compare medication adherence among participants randomly assigned to receive standard medical care for Hepatitis C versus the standard medical care for Hepatitis C along with GPS tracking assistance.
A multi-site prospective, all comers study that was conducted at geographically diverse locations in the United States.
To learn if giving immune checkpoint therapy (such as atezolizumab) and bevacizumab to patients who have HCC and are receiving DAAs may help to control HCC and hepatitis C.
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).
This study will evaluate the efficacy of navigation for hepatitis C treatment in people living with both HIV and HCV with criminal justice involvement.
To provide proof-of-concept data on the efficacy/safety of transplanting HCV positive donor grafts in HCV negative heart recipients who are currently listed.
GC002 is a Phase I trial to evaluate the safety and the immune responses of a lentiviral based HCV immunotherapy (HCVax™) in chronic HCV patients.
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of a fixed dose combination (FDC) of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (G/P) given for 4 weeks for treatment of acute hepatitis C (HCV), with or without HIV-1 coinfection.
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.
Initially, HCV Informatics (C-IT) will be used to filter the EMR data of the one million people who receive care at Mount Sinai and identify candidates for HCV testing (baby boomers, patients with HIV infection) and candidates for HCV treatment (patients with positive test results for HCV RNA and no record of treatment).once treatment candidates have been identified through this proactive approach, their providers will be directly notified. HCV champions and patient navigators will be used to further lower barriers to the delivery of HCV care. They will be co-located at non-hepatology care sites and will help deliver open-label HCV treatment as part of standard medical care to 500 HIV/HCV co-infected patients and 200 patients with type 2 diabetes.
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.
The development of direct acting anti-virals (DAAs) for the treatment of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has changed the landscape of HCV therapy dramatically in the last several years with reported sustained virologic response (SVR) rates in excess of 95% for treatment-naïve HCV positive patients including those who have received liver or kidney transplants. Since these new regimens do not include interferon and have already been studied in the post-liver and kidney transplant setting, they now offer a unique opportunity to expand the donor pool and improve the lives of those awaiting renal transplant. The address this gap in knowledge, the investigators hypothesize that pre-emptive treatment with a direct acting anti-viral HCV medication to cure HCV soon after transplant would allow for safe transplantation of HCV positive kidneys in disadvantaged and needy HCV negative kidney recipients with acceptable risks and improved survivals compared with historical cohorts.
An evaluation of the impact of Elbasvir and Grazoprevir (EBR/GZR) HCV therapy on the heart risk and bone health of HCV mono-infected and HIV/HCV co-infected patients.
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.
This was a Phase 3b, open-label, non-randomized, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1 - 6 infection without liver cirrhosis or with compensated liver cirrhosis and with chronic renal impairment in participants who were either HCV treatment-naïve (TN) or prior treatment-experienced (TE) with interferon (IFN) or pegylated interferon (PegIFN) with or without ribavirin (RBV), or sofosbuvir (SOF) plus RBV with or without pegIFN.
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.

This study will have 2 parts: Pharmacokinetics (PK) Lead-in Phase and the Treatment Phase. The primary objective of the PK Lead-in Phase is to evaluate the steady state PK and confirm the dose of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) in pediatric participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The primary objective of the Treatment Phase is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of SOF/VEL for 12 weeks in pediatric participants with chronic HCV.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the treatment with sofosbuvir velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) fixed-dose combination (FDC) with ribavirin (RBV) for 12 weeks in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and Child-Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) Class C cirrhosis.
This study provides Hepatitis C virus screening to the members of the World Trade Center Health Program followed at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai born during 1945-1965, and linkage to care for those found infected. The study will also determine if exposure to human remains, blood and/or bodily fluids during the World Trade Center Health Program activities are associated with Hepatitis C virus infection. These findings would be relevant to the larger United States population, especially to persons born during 1945-1965 who are at high risk of Hepatitis C virus infection.
To address the need for more affordable hepatitis C virus (HCV) antivirals with high barriers to viral resistance and strategies to shorten the current treatment duration, the goal is to develop affordable therapeutic regimens to prevent HCV entry/spread and test the efficacy of those inhibitors for treating HCV infection. The investigators recently discovered that a major cholesterol uptake receptor is required for HCV entry into hepatocytes and that there is already an FDA-approved drug that inhibits cholesterol uptake by this receptor. Importantly the same drug also potently blocks HCV entry in human liver cells both in cell culture and in a small animal model. Further, looking back at people who were previously treated for HCV infection, the investigators found treatment response to be better (i.e. larger viral log reduction) in patients who happened to be taking ezetimibe (EZE). Hence, the objective of this study is to assess whether the FDA-approved drug (ezetimibe) is useful for the treatment of chronic HCV. The investigators predict that when administered as monotherapy ezetimibe will reduce HCV viremia perhaps allowing for viral clearance and that when included in combination treatment regimens that EZE will increase HCV decline resulting in faster viral clearance (i.e. shorter/cheaper direct-acting antiviral \[DAA\] therapy). To test these hypotheses, the investigators will execute the following aims: (1) Assess the efficacy of EZE monotherapy in chronically HCV infected and predict time to cure; (2) Assess the efficacy of EZE as an adjunct therapy in chronically HCV infected patients undergoing currently approved HCV DAA treatment.
A Phase 3b, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir for an 8- or 12-week treatment duration in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 5 or 6 infection, with or without compensated cirrhosis respectively.
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.
This is a single-site, longitudinal, open-label, interventional study for evaluating the effect of maraviroc on hepatitis C viral levels in patients infected with both hepatitis C and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and taking antiretroviral therapy for HIV.
