Hepatitis C clinical trials at UCSD
7 in progress, 4 open to new patients

  • HCV-TARGET- Hepatitis C Therapeutic Registry and Research Network

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The primary purpose of the HCV-TARGET study is to establish a nationwide registry of patients undergoing treatment with antiviral therapies for chronic hepatitis C (HCV) at both academic and community practices.

  • Impact of DAA Uptake in Controlling HCV Epidemic and Modeling Interventions for HCV Elimination Among HIV-infected Persons in San Diego

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    A retrospective and prospective study among people living with HIV (PLWH) that assesses hepatitis C (HCV) treatment uptake during periods before and after direct acting antivirals (DAA) introduction, and its impact on the HCV epidemic among PLWH.

  • Impact of Hepatitis C Virus Therapy on Central Nervous System Outcomes

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This partially blinded placebo-controlled trial will determine the impact of curing Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) with an oral direct-acting antiviral (DAA), ledipasvir and sofosbuvir in a single pill, on central nervous system (CNS) outcomes in mono- or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) co-infected individuals.

  • Monitoring SOF/VEL in Treatment Naïve, HCV Participants With Active Infection

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This study is being done to see if a minimal monitoring approach is effective and safe when providing HCV treatment. The minimal monitoring approach will require fewer study visits and lab tests with no medication refills. This study is trying to see whether taking an HCV treatment with fewer clinic visits and laboratory tests can cure just as many people as the standard approach that uses more visits and laboratory tests. The results of this study will be compared with what has been observed in other studies using a standard approach.

  • A Registry for Participants With Cirrhosis Who Achieve a Sustained Virologic Response Following Treatment With a Sofosbuvir-Based Regimen Without Interferon for Chronic Hepatitis C Infection

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    This Registry will enroll cirrhotic participants with or without decompensated liver disease who have achieved a sustained virologic response (SVR) after receiving a sofosbuvir (SOF)-based regimen without interferon (IFN) while participating in a Gilead-sponsored hepatitis C virus (HCV) study or commercially at selected sites. Once enrolled, participants will be followed for up to 5 years.

  • Effects of Health Literacy and HCV Knowledge on HCV Treatment Willingness in HIV-coinfected Patients

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    A clinical observational study for patients with HIV co-infected with hepatitis C that investigates the levels of their health literacy, hepatitis C and HIV knowledge. Participants will complete a one-time assessment of these studied domains and categorized in three groups defined by their hepatitis C treatment referral status: not-referred, referred-attended, referred and no-show.

  • Study of Oral Treatments for Hepatitis C

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Phase 1 of this study will compare the effectiveness of 3 approved HCV treatment regimens to learn whether they work equally well under real-world conditions. Phase 2 of this study will begin early 2017 and will compare the effectiveness of 2 FDA approved HCV treatments. Patients receiving HCV therapy in community and academic clinics will be offered the opportunity to consent to be randomly assigned to one of three regimens and then observed for outcomes. Once randomized, all medical care, laboratory testing, and any disease or side effect management will be assumed by usual care conditions, and patient-reported outcomes will be collected outside clinic in keeping with pragmatic design principles.
