Real-world experience with the all-oral, interferon-free regimen of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir and dasabuvir for the treatment of chronic hepa…
2017
Summary Real-world studies are relevant to complement clinical trials on novel antiviral therapies against chronic hepatitis C; however, clinical practice data are currently limited. This study investigated effectiveness and safety of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r)±dasabuvir (DSV)±ribavirin (RBV) for treatment of HCV genotype (GT) 1 and GT4 infection in a large real-world cohort. The German Hepatitis C Registry is an observational cohort study prospectively collecting clinical practice data on direct-acting antiviral therapies. Patients with GT1/4 infection treated with OBV/PTV/r±DSV±RBV were analysed. Effectiveness was assessed by sustained virologic response in 558 patients…
Safety and efficacy of a fixed-dose combination regimen of grazoprevir, ruzasvir, and uprifosbuvir with or without ribavirin in participants with and…
2017
Background There is a need for hepatitis C virus (HCV) therapies with excellent efficacy across genotypes and in diverse populations. Part A of the C-CREST-1 and C-CREST-2 trials led to the selection of a three-drug regimen of grazoprevir (MK-5172; an HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitor; 100 mg/day) plus ruzasvir (MK-8408; an NS5A inhibitor; 60 mg/day) plus uprifosbuvir (MK-3682; an HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitor; 450 mg/day). Part B of the studies tested this combination as a single formulation in different treatment durations in a broader population. Methods Part B of these randomised, phase 2, open-label clinical trials enrolled individuals from 15 countries who were chronically infected with H…
Real-world effectiveness of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir±dasabuvir±ribavirin in patients with hepatitis C virus genotype 1 or 4 infection: A met…
2017
The direct-acting antiviral regimen of ombitasvir (OBV)/paritaprevir (PTV)/ritonavir (r) ± dasabuvir (DSV) ± ribavirin (RBV) demonstrated high rates of sustained viral response at post-treatment week 12 (SVR12) in clinical trials for treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes (GT) 1 and 4. To confirm the effectiveness of this regimen in the real world, we conducted meta-analyses of published literature on 30 April 2016. Freeman-Tukey transformation determined the SVR rate within GTs 1a, 1b, and 4, as well as specific SVR rates by cirrhosis or prior treatment experience status. Rates of virologic relapse, hepatic decompensation, drug discontinuation, and serious adverse events were also …
Efficacy of 8 weeks elbasvir/grazoprevir regimen for naïve-genotype 1b, HCV infected patients with or without glucose abnormalities: Results of the E…
2022
Background and aim: Direct Acting Antivirals(DAAs) achieve the highest rate of sustained viral re- sponse(SVR) in patients with genotype-1b(G1b) Hepatitis C virus(HCV) infection. Reducing treatment du- ration can simplify the management and improve adherence of therapy. Patients and methods: The study evaluates the efficacy of 8 weeks of elbasvir/grazoprevir regimen in 75 treatment-naïve(TN), G1b patients with mild-moderate fibrosis(Liver Stiffness by Fibroscan®< 9.0 kPa). Viral load(VL) has been evaluated by Roche TaqMan RT-PCR(LLOQ < 15 IU/ml). Results: Mean age was 61.0 ±14.2 years, 44% were male, mean LS by Fibroscan®was 6.1 ±1.8 kPa. Twenty-eight patients(37.3%) had an HOMA > …
Thiocarbamate-Linked Polysulfonate–Peptide Conjugates As Selective Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor Binders
2014
The capacity of many proteins to interact with natural or synthetic polyanions has been exploited for modulating their biological action. However, the polydispersity of these macromolecular polyanions as well as their poor specificity is a severe limitation to their use as drugs. An emerging trend in this field is the synthesis of homogeneous and well-defined polyanion–peptide conjugates, which act as bivalent ligands, with the peptide part bringing the selectivity of the scaffold. Alternately, this strategy can be used for improving the binding of short peptides to polyanion-binding protein targets. This work describes the design and first synthesis of homogeneous polysulfonate–peptide con…
Determination of carbamate residues in fruits and vegetables by matrix solid-phase dispersion and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
2000
Abstract Thirteen carbamates were analysed in orange, grape, onion and tomatoes by matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) followed by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). Electrospray (ES) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (APCI) were compared and both gave similar results in terms of sensitivity and structural information because at 20 V fragmentor voltages the fragmentation is minimal. The efficiency of different solid-phases (C18, C8, cyano, amine and phenyl) for the MSPD was compared. Mean recoveries using C8 varied from 64 to 106% with relative standard deviations of 5–15% in the concentration range of 0.01–10 mg kg−1. Matrix constituents did not interfere signific…
Liquid Chromatography Quadrupole Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Carbosulfan, Carbofuran, 3-Hydroxycarbofuran, and Other Metabolites in …
2007
The potential of liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QqTOF-MS) to identify and confirm carbosulfan and seven of its main metabolites (carbofuran, 3-hydroxycarbofuran, 3-ketocarbofuran, 3-hydroxy-7-phenol carbofuran, 3-keto-7-phenolcarbofuran, 7-phenolcarbofuran, dibutylamine) at trace levels from food is explored for the first time. The analytical method developed consists of pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) and LC-QqTOF-MS in positive ion mode, which attains unequivocal identification and quantification of the studied compounds in food, at levels well below of those of concern (0.05 mg/kg for the sum of carbosulfan, carbofuran, and 3-hydroxycarbofuran).…
Flow-injection spectrophometric determination of propoxur with p-aminophenol
1992
Abstract The spectrophotomeric determination of propoxur [2-(1-methyxlthoxy)phenyl methyl carbamate] was carried out with p -aminophenol (PAP) in a flow system. The method involves the on-line hydrolysis with NaOH of propoxur to 2-isopropoxyphenol and the oxidation of PAP to its relative quinone imine with KIO 4 and the reaction between the phenolate and the quinone imine. A four-channel flow manifold was employed to carry out all the different steps of the reaction considered, monitoring the indo dye formed at 600 nm. The developed procedure provides a typical calibration line of A = 0.000 7 + 1.8 × 10 3 C ( A = absorbance; C = concentration in M) with a regression coefficient of 0.9998 an…
Fourier transform infrared spectrometric determination of Ziram.
2001
A procedure has been developed for vapour-phase Fourier transform infrared determination of Ziram, a dithiocarbamate pesticide. The method is based on the evolution of CS(2), after decomposition of the dithiocarbamate with diluted H(2)SO(4) at 50 degrees C. The CS(2) evolved was swept by a carrier flow of nitrogen to a laboratory-made infrared gas cell of 39 mm pathlength and 490 mul volume. The signals were registered as a function of time. The area of peaks obtained from absorbance measurement in the wavenumber range between 1600 and 1450 cm(-1) were interpolated in a calibration line established from Ziram standards treated in the same way as samples. The method provided an absolute limi…
Zum metabolismus von dialkyldithiocarbamaten
1974
Abstract Metabolism dialkyldithiocarbamates. I. Determination of amines using a reaction with isocyanates followed by gas chromatographic identification of the urea derivatives formed. N,N′-Di- and N,N′,N′-trisubstituted areas, formed by the reaction of amines with isocyanates, e.g. tert. -butyl isocyanate or 3-trifluoromethylphenyl isocyanate, are useful derivatives for the gas chromatographic analysis of primary and secondary amines. The separation is carried out at temperatures between 70 and 130° on liquid phases such as silicone OV-101 and silicone OV-17. With nitrogen and electron capture detectors the detection limit is 10 10 g. Trace analysis of simple primary and secondary amines i…
