isoniazid and Hepatitis C

isoniazid has been researched along with Hepatitis C in 9 studies

Hydra: A genus of freshwater polyps in the family Hydridae, order Hydroida, class HYDROZOA. They are of special interest because of their complex organization and because their adult organization corresponds roughly to the gastrula of higher animals.
hydrazide : Compounds derived from oxoacids RkE(=O)l(OH)m (l =/= 0) by replacing -OH by -NRNR2 (R groups are commonly H). (IUPAC).

Hepatitis C: INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by HEPATITIS C VIRUS, a single-stranded RNA virus. Its incubation period is 30-90 days. Hepatitis C is transmitted primarily by contaminated blood parenterally and is often associated with transfusion and intravenous drug abuse. However, in a significant number of cases, the source of hepatitis C infection is unknown.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

Cumulative Incidence of Participants Experiencing a Grade 3/4 Hepatotoxicity

Safety will be assessed by the occurrence of a Grade 3/4 hepatotoxicity at any time during the assigned treatment period. (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Hepatotoxicity occurring during the six month course (180 pills) of isoniazid (INH), which may be taken over a maximum of 9 months.

Number of Participants Who Discontinued Treatment

Lack of tolerability will be defined as any isoniazid (INH) treatment discontinuation prior to completion of the prescribed course (6 months of INH taken over a maximum period of 9 months) due to side effects or alanine transaminase (ALT)/aspartate transaminase (AST) elevations. (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Six month course (180 pills) of isoniazid (INH), which may be taken over a maximum of 9 months.

Number of Participants With Alanine Transaminase (ALT) or Aspartate Transaminase (AST) Elevations at Study Screening

Alanine transaminase (ALT) or aspartate transaminase (AST) elevations (>2x the upper limit of normal) at study screening (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Study screening visit

Number of Participants With Latent Tuberculosis at Study Screening.

Latent tuberculosis assessed at screening via tuberculin skin testing (TST). A TST induration >=5mm was considered positive for latent tuberculosis. (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Study screening visit

INH Concentration in Hair: (INH Pmol + Acetyl INH Pmol) Per mg of Hair

INH concentration in hair (pmol/mg) will be measured at 3- and 6- months during INH therapy. (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Measured at 3- and 6- months after INH initiation

Percentage of Participants With Suboptimal INH Medication Adherence

Suboptimal INH adherence was defined as <90% of days with at least 1 electronic medication management (EMM) pill cap opening in the previous 90 days, at 3- and 6-months. (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Adherence will be measured over the 6 months on INH or until INH discontinuation (whichever is shorter)

Self-reported INH Medication Adherence: Number of Days Taking INH in the Past 30 Days

"Participants were asked In the past 30 days, how many days in total have you not taken your pill? and were presented with a visual analog scale (VAS) to indicate the percentage of INH taken in the past 30 days. We converted the VAS percentage into number of days out of 30 to match the first question. Our final self-report measure was the minimum number of the 2 self-reported measurements." (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Self-reported INH medication adherence via VAS will be measured 3- and 6- months after starting INH

Self-reported INH Medication Adherence by the Self Rating Single Item (SRSI) Scale

The Self Rating Single Item (SRSI) adherence scale asks participants to rate their ability to take their medications as prescribed over the past 30 days. Participants reporting INH use in the prior 30 days at the 3- or 6-month interview are included here, and reported their INH adherence in the prior 30 days as excellent, very good, good, fair, poor, or very poor. (NCT03302299)
Timeframe: Self-reported INH medication adherence via SRSI will be measured 3- and 6- months after starting INH
