184420 tn?1326739808 It looks very promising, and they’re also combining it with an HIV protease inhibitor ‘ritonavir’.

Are you considering participating?

Avatar m tn So inhibiting CYP3A with grapefruit juice (or other citrus juices) will increase the blood levels of Telepravir and Boceprevir.

Treatment duration in all arms was 12 weeks.
751342 tn?1534360021 I'm not sure why she brought me in last week. I don't go back for a month now. I just want them to stop sending me for ultrasounds every month. I either can't have my coffee in the morning or can't eat for 6 hours. The last time was the latter and I was really irritable. She said she will ask about that because the study drug can cause gall stones, but I'm not on the study drug! In addition to being just a general pain in the backside, those ultrasounds are time consuming!
Avatar f tn A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effect of ABT-450, Ritonavir and ABT-267 (ABT-450/r/ABT-267) and ABT-333 Coadministered With Ribavirin (RBV) in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Genotype 1-infected Adults With Compensated Cirrhosis.

Avatar n tn I searched the archives and DR. Handsfield and Hook have both recommended testing for sharing a bank note to inhale cocaine. Then on other posts they say don't worry. This is getting me so confused. Other sites say a definite HCV risk but not HIV and some say both. Is there anywhere that say whether or not to get tested? I am just wanting to make sure as me and my wife are planning a baby and I stupidly did a few lines at a buddies bachelor party a few weeks ago.
Avatar f tn once-a-day Viekirax, which combines the NS5A inhibitor ombitasvir with a fixed-dose combo of paritaprevir and ritonavir that blocks NS3/4A; and twice-daily Exviera, which targets NSB5. Each targeted protein is essential to the spread of hep C, and, in pivotal trials on thousands of patients, AbbVie's multi-pill combination has eradicated the virus in patients with all genotypes without the need for painful interferon injections....
Avatar f tn My friend whouses regularly passed me a bank note to use. Me and my partner looked at the bank note and there were no traces of blood.
Avatar m tn In a mid-stage study of 34 patients, 33 were cured of the virus after 24 weeks of treatment with AbbVie’s experimental cocktail of ombitasvir, ritonavir, dasabuvir, ABT-450, and ribavirin, an antiviral drug used to supplement hepatitis C treatments. The study was published today in the New England Journal of Medicine. Liver transplant patients are particularly in need of new hepatitis C treatments with better cure rates and fewer side effects.

408795 tn?1324935675 Good to see you too! This is great information for alot of people who can't handle the interferon or needles. I'm hoping there are other options heading our way as well. It's great to see that California Drug Mfg are getting into the act of curing HepC as well. More companies could potentially lead to more cures!! That's a win win for everyone!! Yay!!
Avatar n tn I would eat my script for 120 perc 10’s in 10 days and anything else I could get my hands on. I nearly lost everything. My bank account was drained. My husband had enough. I made the decision to change my life before it was too late. Probably 11 times I tried to get this far. So here I am on day 30 (still cant believe it) and I’m ALIVE and WELL! My brain is still healing, but every day is better than the last for the most part. Sleep is still an issue along with energy & anxiety.
Avatar m tn these 2 data leaks above report 95% SVR rates in small interferon-free multi-drug oral drug combinations of only 2 or 3 drugs, so is this the new standard of care that all future regimens will have to match for treatment-naives?? Roche, BMS, Gilead, Vertex, Abbott & Merck (also Idenix & Achllion, 2 smaller biotechs) each have several new HCV oral drugs at various stages of development, so are developing their own multi-drug interferon-free oral regimen with or without ribavirin.
Avatar f tn You would need to follow up with your doctor to find out the answers to go with whether 2 drug or 3 drug regimen because no one here online or on any other website can substitute a doctor's advice.
