Research conducted with a type of herpes virus showed that viral replication was inhibited by existing anti-obesity and anti-metabolism drugs. Hepatitis C uses the same fatty acids to build their viral envelope as the studied herpes virus. Thus, scientists are...
Medical Device Boasts Encouraging Data for Hepatitis C Treatment
A medical device designed to clear viruses and immunosuppressive proteins from the blood reduced Hepatitis C viral load for several people on dialysis. Further case studies will determine if the Aethlon Hemopurifier® can induce a rapid virological response against Hepatitis...
Hepatitis C Study Increases Interest in SCV-07
Trial results show SciClone's SCV-07 effectively reduces Hepatitis C viral load in previous non-responders with genotype 1. Based on these encouraging results, a follow-up study to evaluate SCV-07's potential to replace or improve the current Hepatitis C standard treatment will...
