This study will investigate the effects of the investigational drug serelaxin (a recombinant form of the peptide human relaxin-2) on portal hypertension in patients with liver cirrhosis. The investigators will measure portal pressure by hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) and hepatic blood flow by indocyanine green (ICG) clearance to evaluate the potential benefits of the drug. In a recently completed small exploratory open-label phase 2 study (EudraCT no. 201200023626, NCT01640964), Part B demonstrated that serelaxin can lower portal pressure.
