Chronic hepatitis C virus infection

This early-stage trial tests a DNA vaccine called INO-8000, given with an immune booster, to see if it can help people with chronic hepatitis C fight the virus. The study involves 33 participants and focuses on safety and finding the best dose. The vaccine is delivered through in…

This study tests a new two-drug combination, BEM/RZR, against an approved treatment, SOF/VEL, in 880 adults with chronic hepatitis C. The goal is to see if BEM/RZR can clear the virus as effectively and safely. Participants must not have taken prior HCV drugs and may have compens…

This study tests a 12-week course of the drug Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir in about 100 pregnant women with chronic hepatitis C. The goal is to see if the treatment can cure the virus and whether it affects the timing of delivery. Mothers are followed for 12 weeks after treatment, and …

This study follows 30 adults with chronic hepatitis C (genotype 3) and mild to moderate liver fibrosis who are taking ravidasvir and sofosbuvir as part of their regular care. Researchers will check if the virus is undetectable 12 weeks after treatment ends (SVR12). The goal is to…

This Phase 3 trial compares a new two-drug combination pill (Bemnifosbuvir-Ruzasvir) against the current standard treatment (Sofosbuvir-Velpatasvir) for adults with chronic hepatitis C. About 880 participants who have not been treated with similar drugs before will take the new p…

This study is testing whether adding a blood test called the GAAD score to regular ultrasound scans can improve the detection of liver cancer in people at high risk, such as those with cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis. About 2,100 participants will get both tests every six months f…

This study is testing whether a new blood test score, called GAAD, can detect liver cancer earlier in people with chronic liver disease. The GAAD score combines a person's gender, age, and two blood markers (AFP and PIVKA-II). Researchers will compare the GAAD score to standard u…

This pilot trial tests whether training Gancheros—people who provide injection services in exchange for money or drugs—can lower HIV, hepatitis C, and overdose risks among migrant Puerto Rican people who inject drugs in New York City. Gancheros will attend six sessions on prevent…

This study follows 121 adults who have been cured of chronic hepatitis C to understand why some still develop liver complications like scarring or cancer. Participants are monitored for up to 10 years with regular tests, scans, and occasional liver biopsies. The goal is to learn …

This study follows 2,002 people at high risk for liver cancer to find better ways to detect it early. Researchers are testing a panel of blood-based miRNA markers, gut microbiome changes, and MRI-based AI algorithms to predict who develops the disease. The goal is to improve on c…

This study looks at how the immune system of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) responds to severe infections caused by viruses or bacteria. Researchers will take extra blood samples from 38 adults to analyze immature granulocytes, a type of immune cell. The goal is to see…

This study planned to see if faster testing and treatment for hepatitis C could be given to inmates right when they enter prison. The goal was to start medication sooner to reduce the spread of the virus. However, the study was withdrawn and no one took part.
