Trial Type	Trial ID	Title	Status	Sponsor	Phase	Start Date	Summary
New Combination	NCT01413490 ↗	Hepatitis C Rimantadine and Antiviral Combination Therapy	Completed	Cancer Research UK		2012-05-01	Hepatitis C virus is one of the leading causes of liver failure and liver cancer worldwide. Current treatment of hepatitis C infection is only successful in about half of those who are eligible. The current treatment aims to boost the host immune system but does not directly act on the virus. Many drugs are in various stages of development that target the virus directly - their specific mode of action is confirmed by showing the virus is forced to adapt in the presence of the drug. As with many viruses, treating with only one specific drug would quickly lead to the virus adapting and becoming resistant. We therefore need to find new combinations of directly acting drugs. Rimantadine has already been shown in the laboratory to target hepatitis C directly. We have designed this study to see if it happens in real life as well. If so, we could use rimantadine to help fight hepatitis c more effectively.

NCT00298233 ↗	High-Dose Versus Standard-Dose Oseltamivir to Treat Severe Influenza and Avian Influenza	Completed	University of Oxford	Phase 2	2006-02-01	Influenza, also known as the flu, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. The illness can range in severity, from mild to severe to even death, and it causes an estimated 500,000 to 1,000,000 deaths worldwide each year. In the last several years, there have been increasing numbers of human cases of avian influenza, or bird flu. This trend may pose a threat of a future pandemic--worldwide outbreak of disease--with an avian influenza virus that can easily spread from person to person. Oseltamivir is an antiviral medication that is used to treat people with uncomplicated human influenza, and it may be effective in treating people with either severe human influenza or avian influenza. The purpose of this international study is to compare standard-dose oseltamivir versus high-dose oseltamivir for treating people who are hospitalized with severe human influenza or avian influenza.
