Zetomipzomib (KZR-616) in Patients With Autoimmune Hepatitis (PORTOLA)
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
This is a Phase 2a, multi-center, placebo-controlled study in which patients with autoimmune hepatitis will receive zetomipzomib or placebo in addition to standard-of-care for 24 weeks; an optional open-label extension period allows patients to receive zetomipzomib (KZR-616) for an additional 24 weeks of treatment.

Mild Hypothermia and Acute Kidney Injury in Liver Transplantation
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Acute kidney injury (AKI), or worsening kidney function, is a common complication after liver transplantation (20-90% in published studies). Patients who experience AKI after liver transplantation have higher mortality, increased graft loss, longer hospital and intensive care unit stays, and more progression to chronic kidney disease compared with those who do not. In this study, half of the participants will have their body temperature cooled to slightly lower than normal (mild hypothermia) for a portion of the liver transplant operation, while the other half will have their body temperature maintained at normal. The study will evaluate if mild hypothermia protects from AKI during liver transplantation.

Oral TLR8 Agonist Selgantolimod on HBsAg in Participants With Both Chronic Hepatitis B and HIV
open to eligible people ages 18-70
The study aims to assess safety and tolerability of oral toll-like receptor (TLR) 8 agonist Selgantolimod (SLGN) administered for 24 weeks in participants with both CHB and HIV who have been receiving suppressive antiviral therapy for both viruses for ≥5 years and have qHBsAg level >1000 (3 log10) IU/mL at screening. The study will also evaluate if TLR8 stimulation with SLGN will reduce hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) titers in the blood.

Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) in Children and Teen Participants With Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection
open to eligible people ages 2-17
The goals of this clinical study are to compare the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of study drug, tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), versus placebo in teens and children with CHB and to learn more about the dosing levels in children.

Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity in Adult and Adolescent Participants With Acute Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection on Treatment With Oral Tablets of Glecaprevir (GLE)/Pibrentasvir (PIB)
“Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”
open to eligible people ages 12 years and up
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection is a global health problem. HCV mainly affects liver cells and causes the liver to become inflamed and damaged. This study will evaluate how safe and effective glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) is in adult and adolescent participants with acute HCV infection. GLE/PIB is an approved drug for the treatment of chronic HCV. Around 283 participants at least 12 years of age with acute HCV Infection will be enrolled in approximately 70 sites worldwide. Participants will receive oral tablets of GLE/PIB once daily (QD) for 8 weeks and will be followed for 12 weeks after the end of treatment. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, monitoring for side effects and completing questionnaires.

VIR-2218, VIR-3434, and/or PEG-IFNα in Subjects With Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection
open to eligible people ages 18-65
This is a phase 2 study in which participants with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection will receive VIR-2218, VIR-3434 and/or PEG-IFNα and be assessed for safety, tolerability, and efficacy

Observational Study of Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) Infection
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
The TARGET-HBV study engages an observational research design to conduct a comprehensive review of outcomes for patients with CHB infection. The initial phase of the study that enrolled patients treated with tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) was successfully completed. The current protocol (Amendment 1) describes the second phase of the study that will engage research activities for patients being managed for CHB in usual clinical practice in the US and Canada. The study addresses important clinical questions regarding the management of CHB by collecting and analyzing data from patients at academic and community medical centers. TARGET-HBV creates a robust database of real-world data regarding the natural history, management, and health outcomes related to antiviral treatments used in clinical practice.

Liver Cirrhosis Network Cohort Study
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Liver Cirrhosis Network (LCN) Cohort Study is an observational study designed to identify risk factors and develop prediction models for risk of decompensation in adults with liver cirrhosis. LCN Cohort Study involves multiple institutions and an anticipated 1200 participants. Enrolled participants will have study visits every 6 months (180 days), with opportunities to complete specific visit components via telehealth or remotely. Visits will include collection of questionnaire data and the in-person visits will include questionnaires, physical exams, imaging, and sample collection.

Liver Cirrhosis Network Rosuvastatin Efficacy and Safety for Cirrhosis in the United States
Sorry, not currently recruiting here
This is a double-blind, phase 2 study to evaluate safety and efficacy of rosuvastatin in comparison to placebo after 2 years in patients with compensated cirrhosis.

Navitoclax and Sorafenib Tosylate in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of navitoclax when given together with sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with solid tumors that have returned (relapsed) or do not respond to treatment (refractory). Navitoclax and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Antiviral Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Versus Placebo in Pediatric Participants With Chronic Hepatitis B Infection
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF; TDF) versus placebo in pediatric population (aged 2 to < 12 years at the time of enrollment) with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection.

Hepatitis B e-Antigen Negative Disease - Directly Offered Study of Treatment Withdrawal in Patients With e-Antigen Negative Chronic HBV Infection (BeNEG-DO).
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The investigators' research is aimed at developing more effective, finite approaches for managing individual patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). This prospective clinical and basic scientific study exclusively focuses on patients with the early antigen negative form of disease, which in developed countries is treated indefinitely with antiviral drugs. The investigators' study "BeNEG-DO," directly offers patients who are already taking standard oral Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) antiviral therapy for at least 192 weeks the option to stop or continue treatment. Drawing on data from pilot studies, including the investigators' own University of California, San Francisco and Sutter Institutional Review Board-approved study, the investigators will examine a finite HBV treatment strategy on clinical outcome and safety. In conjunction, the investigators will study immunologic mechanisms and gene expression profiles that correlate with and predict the post-treatment clinical course. The BeNEG-DO study could seriously question, and potentially change, the current treatment paradigm for millions of patients with CHB and also lead to new disease-terminating antiviral therapeutics.

HBRN: Immune Regulation and Costimulation in Natural History and Therapeutic Outcome of Chronic Hepatitis B
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This is an ancillary to the NIDDK-sponsored treatment trials titled: Combination Therapy of Pegylated Interferon Alfa-2a and Tenofovir Versus Tenofovir Monotherapy in Chronic Hepatitis B (NCT01369212) and Combination Entecavir and Peginterferon Therapy in HBeAg-Positive Immune-Tolerant Adults With Chronic Hepatitis B (NCT01369199). This study will examine the balance between immune regulatory and effector responses in hepatitis B-infected participants enrolled in the HBRN's clinical trials (NCT01369212 and NCT01369199) to define natural history and treatment outcome.
