I got an email from Hepatitis C Research and News with 2 clinical trials recruiting participants. If anyone is interested go to clinicaltrials.gov. The trial identifiers are #NCT01805882 and # NCT01878799. Hope someone can benefit from this info.
Here is the link for the Hepatitis C Research and News site. In their articles are the adverse reactions and findings. I understood it to say with/without HIV. I read that about no herbals, but if I was going to do a trial I would stop taking whatever might inhibit the study. This is an excellent site. http://hepatitiscresearchandnewsupdates.blogspot.com
I just emailed someone about the study -I live near DC.. but not a fan of the CDC....so thanks so much for posting it. I am afraid of all the meds but feel somewhat hopeful with the "new" batch. I don't like that I can't use supplements which is a stipulation.. they keep me going..afraid of my own shadow at this point.. anxiety is my biggest problem apart from the obvious.
just have to keep breathing,, and hold my own hand... good to have others to support
got a call back and they are looking for folks who have failed treatment in the past..I was not a candidate. He gave me a number for JHH and there are no studies there either that are open. confused
Use of herbal/natural remedies for potential benefit to the liver within 21 Days of Day 0.
The second trial is for Hepatitis C in People With HIV.
It would be nice if the side effects of the drugs were included in the description.
