35 results about "Hcv therapy" patented technology

Disclosed are uses of immunotherapeutic compositions in combination with Standard of Care (SOC), or interferon therapy combined with anti-viral therapy, for the improved treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and related conditions, including liver function. The compositions, kits and uses of the invention, as compared to the use of SOC therapy alone: improves the rate of early response to therapy as measured by early virologic markers (e.g., RVR and EVR), enlarges the pool of patients who will have sustained responses to therapy over the long term, offers shortened courses of therapy for certain patients, enables “rescue” of patients who are non-responders or intolerant to SOC therapy, improves liver function and/or reduces liver damage in patients, and enables the personalization of HCV therapy for a patient, which can result in dose sparing, improved patient compliance, reduced side effects, and improved long term therapeutic outcomes.

Inhibitors of HCV replication of formula I

including stereochemically isomeric forms, and salts, hydrates, solvates thereof, wherein R and R′ have the meaning as defined herein.

The present invention also relates to processes for preparing said compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use, alone or in combination with other HCV inhibitors, in HCV therapy.

The present invention relates to a novel method for predicting likeliness of the outcome or efficacy of an antiviral therapy against Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). This method is based on the detection of antibodies against the proteins NSta and or NS5a in a sample of a patient. This method can be further combined with the detection of viral titers of HCV in a sample of a patient. The method of the invention allows a more reliable identification of a subset of non-responders in an early stage of treatment.

The invention relates to application of an aryl naphthalene type lignan in hepatitis C virus (HCV) therapy and belongs to the technical field of medicine, and discloses an aryl naphthalene type lignan (red fish eye glycoside B) which has the activity of HCV resistance and is extracted and prepared from a Guangxi special Zhuang medicine, namely, red fish eye Phyllanthus reticulatus. The application of the aryl naphthalene type lignan in the HCV therapy is characterized in that obvious inhibitory effect (p < 0.01) is supplied to replicon ribonucleic acid (RNA) of HCV within a concentration range of 125 microgrammes per rnl to 15625 microgrammes per rnl, and a concentration range of non-cytotoxic drugs is from 0 to 3125 microgrammes per rnl (p < 0.01). According to the application of the aryl naphthalene type lignan in the HCV therapy, the market prospect of aryl naphthalene type lignan (red fish eye glycoside B) in HCV resistance new drug research and development is wide.

Methods of treating a hepatitis C virus (HCV) related disease, such as HCV infections in subjects non-responsive to anti-HCV therapy, are described herein, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of hydroxychloroquine. An antiviral agent may be co-administered with the hydroxychloroquine. Methods utilizing synergistic combinations of hydroxychloroquine and an antiviral agent are disclosed. Further disclosed are compositions comprising hydroxychloroquine and an antiviral agent, as well as hydroxychloroquine and uses thereof for the treatment of a hepatitis C virus (HCV) related disease.

Inhibitors of HCV replication of formula I

including stereochemically isomeric forms, and salts, hydrates, solvates thereof, wherein R and R′ have the meaning as defined herein.

The present invention also relates to processes for preparing said compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in HCV therapy.

The present disclosure relates to solid dosage forms comprising anti-HCV compounds and methods of using such dosage forms to treat or prevent HCV infection. Direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) have a high cure rate, and favorable tolerability in persons infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). However, shorter courses of therapy can improve adherence, affordability, and increase DAAs accessibility. The addition of an NS3 protease inhibitor to dual NS5A-NS5B (nucleoside) inhibitors enhances antiviral efficacy, and reduces treatment duration to 3 weeks (wks) in individuals with a rapid virologic response (RVR), defined as plasma HCV RNA<500, or <1,000, IU/mL by Day 2 of treatment.

A peptide which has at least 80% identity to a fragment of Domain A or B of the Hepreceptor of ezrin, is used in the treatment of viral hepatitis.
