Read the detailed description

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has an estimated global prevalence of 2%-3% with 130-170 million people infected with HCV.(1) HCVcauses chronic inflammation of the liver leading to chronic hepatitis, which can advance to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma and significant extrahepatic complications.(2) Additionally, HCV has been shown to have a significant negative effect on apatient's overall quality of life, including decreased work hours and productivity and increased healthcare costs.(3) Cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma related to HCV infection represent the most common indications for liver transplantation duo to poor treatment options.(4) Until recently, interferon-based treatments were thebackbone of HCV treatment options.(5) Unfortunately,therapy was only modestly effective and associatedwith significant side effects.(6) Therefore, research has focused on HCV eradication using oral antiviral therapy.

Recent clinical studies have demonstrated efficacy using the nucleotide analogue inhibitor sofosbuvir(Sovaldi; Gilead Sciences, Inc., Foster City, CA) as the backbone in treatment of non transplant and post transplant recurrent HCV.(7) Both the ION-1 and ION-2 trials demonstrated nearly 99% efficacy in the treatment ofnontransplant, noncirrhotic HCV patientsusing sofosbuvir in a fixed-dose combination with theNS5A inhibitor ledipasvir (Harvoni, Gilead Sciences,Inc.), both with and without ribavirin.(8,9) The side effect profile of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) hasbeen relatively mild and the drug has been well tolerated in trials, especially compared with previous interferon-based regimens.

The ION trials report that LDV/SOF therapy was primarily complicated by headaches or fatigue inapproximately 10% of patients. Less frequently, patients experienced rashes, nausea, diarrhea, and insomnia.Serious side effects, such as nephrotoxicity, were not demonstrated by the ION-1 and ION-2 trials; however, these trials were conducted in a controlled clinical setting with rigorous exclusion criteria. Such trials are not always entirely reflective of the general patient population. Early data suggest possible risk of renal impairment during treatment with the use of direct antiviral drugs(10) this study is about renal safety and changes in eGFR in patients with chronic HCV undergoing direct acting antiviral therapy according to 2018 guideline.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) changes during HCV treatment

    the frequency of renal impairment by evaluation of glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) changes during HCV treatment with direct antiviral drugs before and after the treatment using different equation for eGFR such as (MDRD, CKD_EPI,Cockroft)

    Measured: 3 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Effect of direct anti Viral drugs on kidney function

    the frequency of renal impairment by direct antiviral drugs by measurement of serum BUN and creatinine

    Measured: 3 month

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Moamen Mohey (01091094556, momen_mohey880@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) changes during HCV treatment (time frame: 3 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03965286, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 May 2019.
