10 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to evaluate sustained virologic response 12 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR12) following 12 weeks of simeprevir plus sofosbuvir with and without ribavirin (RBV) and 24 weeks of simeprevir plus sofosbuvir without RBV in post orthotopic liver transplant participants with recurrent hepatitis (inflammation of the liver) C virus (HCV) Genotype 1 infection.
This is a double-blind, multicenter study involving patients with chronic HCV infection who had a liver transplantation; developed HCV-related liver fibrosis and/or incomplete cirrhosis; achieved a sustained virologic response (SVR) following anti-HCV therapy; but still have fibrosis and/or incomplete cirrhosis on liver biopsy to see if treatment with IDN-6556 is better than placebo in reversing or stopping the progression of the damage to the new liver caused by HCV.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of an everolimus conversion (EVR) protocol as compared to the standard tacrolimus (TAC) based protocol in liver transplant recipients, as determined by renal function, rejection rates, and progression to fibrosis (in HCV positive subjects). Additionally, safety profile and tolerability of these regimens will be assessed.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate effectiveness of the WallFlex Biliary RX Fully Covered Stent for anastomotic biliary strictures in post-orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) patients.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of oral vancomycin in patients with recurrent Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) after liver transplantation. The primary endpoint is looking at the effect of the drug on liver function tests, an important surrogate of PSC disease activity at 12 weeks on treatment. Secondary endpoints include a decrease in liver function tests at 1 year, changes in bilirubin and adverse events. Effective treatment at the onset of PSC recurrence may lead to decreases in disease progression, recurrent liver failure, and repeat liver transplantation.
The objective of this study is to provide open label emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/TDF) for an additional 5 years (240 weeks) to adults completing study GS-US-203-0107.
The objective of this 96-week study was to evaluate the safety and antiviral efficacy of emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/TDF, coformulated; Truvada®) with or without hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIg) in preventing the recurrence of chronic hepatitis B following liver transplantation, in participants who were chronically infected with hepatitis B prior to transplantation. Prior to enrollment, participants were required to have received at least 12 weeks of HBIg therapy following liver transplantation. Enrolled participants then received FTC/TDF plus HBIg for an initial 24-week pre-randomization treatment period. Participants who completed the pre-randomization period and who achieved sustained viral suppression were randomized to continue treatment with FTC/TDF with or without HBIg for an additional 72 weeks (randomized period). The antiviral efficacy of treatment was assessed by measuring hepatitis B virus levels in the blood (HBV DNA). Safety and tolerability was monitored by assessing adverse events and various laboratory parameters.
A post-treatment follow-up observational study for liver disease subjects with or without liver cirrhosis after receiving emricasan or placebo. Subjects must have been enrolled in a prior IDN-6556 study to be eligible.
Post-Marketing Requirement study to evaluate the safety of octaplas™ versus plasma in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). The primary objective is to assess the incidence of hyperfibrinolysis in patients undergoing (OLT) receiving octaplas™ versus regular plasma (e.g., fresh frozen plasma and other FDA and AABB approved plasma products).
HepaGam B Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (HBIG) solution contains 10% maltose, which could possibly interfere with the measurement of glucose levels when using glucose non-specific tests. The purpose of this study is to determine whether use of HepaGam B HBIG shows an increase in glucose levels in the body using non-specific glucose monitoring, as well as specific glucose monitoring. The sponsor believes that this medication will not cause a significant increase in glucose levels in the body when measured by glucose non-specific tests.
