I was told that some that had participated had an average of 90 -95 platelets count and I h...

Day two of the clinical trial for the phase III Abbott study
(Preview)
I had looked for this particular trial because of my fear for the inteferon injections and I guess as they say timing is everything and I managed to get in. I am a stage 4 cirrhosis at 57 years old so I am hoping I can clear this nasty virus that I think I have had for about 30 years. I am lucky that I have played s...

Anti-replicating drug study cures hep C with almost no side-effects

I will hopefully be starting this study in April after my liver biopsy. I did a Riba/Interferon study with this same site about 5 years ago and failed. This time, instead of a 48 week study, it will be a 3 month study where I only take pills. The pills stop the virus from replicating and there is a greater th...

On October 5th I finished up a 12 week clinical trial with Pegasys, Ribavirin, and GS 7977 from Gilead. Since they won't release the results to us until all the participants are done, I had the VA run new viral load tests for me.
