NCT04048876
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, multinational, dose-finding study evaluating the efficacy of three treatment doses of CC-90001 compared with placebo, in Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) participants with Stage 2, Stage 3 liver fibrosis. This study is designed to assess response to treatment on measures of fibrosis and other efficacy parameters. It will also assess dose response and overall safety.
NCT03245580
The primary purpose of this prospective, randomized, multicenter study is to evaluate and compare the amount and quality of tissue samples yielded in a liver biopsy comparing 2 different techniques of EUS guided CORE liver biopsy for benign disease. The two techniques: "modified Wet suction" and "Slow pull" technique of collecting tissue from a liver biopsy via Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS).
NCT03059446
This rollover study will provide open-label treatment with cenicriviroc and will assess the long-term safety of continued treatment with cenicriviroc in participants who participated in either the CENTAUR study 652-2-203 \[NCT02217475\] or the AURORA study \[NCT03028740\].
NCT01529268
CyNCh is a multi-center, placebo-controlled clinical trial of children ages 8 to 17 years with biopsy-confirmed moderate to severe nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The primary objective is to evaluate whether 52 weeks of treatment with cysteamine bitartrate delayed-release capsules will result in improvement in liver disease severity.
NCT01842581
The purpose of the study is to evaluate if rifaximin alone or rifaximin plus lactulose delays the onset of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in participants with cirrhosis who have had a previous episode of HE.
NCT03848390
The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of modified time-restricted feeding and conventional dietary approaches in motivated obese fatty liver patients on biochemical markers, imaging studies, and anthropometric measurements.
NCT01244503
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate that the ¹³C-Octanoate Breath Test (OBT) can be used as an aid, in conjunction with other clinical information and medical history, for evaluating disease severity and detecting NASH with a high probability.
NCT03726827
Liver disease (NAFLD) and (NASH) are a rapidly increasing population health threat driven primarily by diet and lifestyle. Fibrotic liver disease, culminating in cirrhosis, is frequently asymptomatic so it is common for a patient to first learn of what is a life threatening condition by being told that they have cirrhosis. Management and treatment of cirrhosis is complex and very costly with the only current cure being a very expensive transplant for end stage liver disease. The SUNN study seeks to perform Fibroscan wellness testing on at risk but asymptomatic self selected patients in the general population to identify disease early and to triage patients toward care or educational tools based upon test results. No personally identifiable information will be collected but demographic and test results will be imported into a registry for data analysis. Results of the study will guide development of screening protocols to identify early stage disease in a wellness screening model.
NCT05006885
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ALT-801 in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects with overweight and obese and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
NCT03656744
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study comparing multiple doses of HTD1801 to placebo.
NCT04643795
The purpose of this study is to directly characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of MGL-3196 and its major metabolite (MGL-3623) following administration of multiple oral doses (QD x 6 days) in subjects with varying degrees of hepatic impairment (HI) compared to healthy matched control subjects with normal hepatic function, including a subset of NASH subjects.
NCT03712280
The main reason for this study is to see how the study drug interacts with the body. It will compare different doses of the study drug with a drug already in use. Participants will be adults with liver disease that has affected the brain in the past.
NCT04702490
A randomized, multi-center study evaluating MET409 (50 mg) alone or in combination with empagliflozin (10 mg) for 12 weeks. Assignment to MET409 will be double-blind and placebo-controlled. Empagliflozin will be incorporated into two of the treatment arms in an open-label manner.
NCT00650546
We hypothesize that exenatide (Byetta), a GLP-1 agonist administered subcutaneously for 24-28 weeks improves liver histology in diabetic patients with biopsy-proven NASH.
NCT00206076
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of mycophenolate mofetil alone, or with reduced dose cyclosporine (CsA) or tacrolimus, for immunosuppression long-term after liver transplantation, in an attempt to reduce the potential side effects from using cyclosporine or tacrolimus.
NCT02321306
Open-label, multicenter study in adults with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC) designed to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of daily dosing with LUM001.
NCT02601820
The PROP UP research study is funded by The Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). PROP UP is a multi-centered prospective observational study that will evaluate all-oral treatment regimens for chronic hepatitis C viral (HCV) infection regarding several patient-reported outcomes (PROs) such as HCV-associated symptoms, treatment side effects, medication adherence, out of pocket costs, comorbid conditions, and long-term benefits of cure and harms of treatment to compare PROs of different treatment regimens, treatment durations, and patient subgroups. Participants will be recruited from 9 U.S. liver centers. Approximately 1920 patients with HCV infection who are prescribed a regimen containing Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir(SOF/LED), SOF/Velpatasvir(SOF/VEL), Grazoprevir/Elbasvir(GRZ/ELB), OBV/PTV/r + DSV (PRoD), or daclatasvir/SOF (DAC/SOF) will be recruited and approximately 1600 patients who are approved and begin HCV treatment will be enrolled in the longitudinal study. PRO surveys will be evaluated before, during and after HCV treatment. PROP UP is a collaborative effort between behavioral and biomedical researchers, a patient engagement group and a patient advocacy organization.
NCT00006166
The NASTRA Clinical Trial is a multi-center, randomized, controlled clinical trial designed to determine if treatment with transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunts (TIPS) is superior to high volume paracentesis (total paracentesis, TP) for the treatment of refractory ascites due to cirrhosis. Only patients with clinically tense symptomatic ascites (shortness of breath, umbilical hernia, abdominal pain and/or distension, and/or limitation of activity) who have either diuretic-resistant ascites or diuretic-intractable ascites are being studied.
NCT04615091
The ELASTO-SURGERY study aims to evaluate the prognostic role of portal hypertension evaluated by non-invasive methods in predicting post-operative morbidity (at 90 days) and mortality (at 365 days) in patients with advanced chronic liver disease undergoing elective extrahepatic surgery.
