NCT01972529
This is a global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study using avatrombopag to treat adults with thrombocytopenia associated with liver disease. The study will evaluate avatrombopag in the treatment of thrombocytopenia associated with liver disease prior to an elective procedure to reduce the need for platelet transfusions or any rescue procedure for bleeding due to procedural and post-procedural bleeding complications. Participants will be enrolled into 2 cohorts according to mean baseline platelet count and, within each baseline platelet count cohort will be further stratified by risk of bleeding associated with the elective procedure (low, moderate, or high) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) status (Yes or No).
NCT00096733
There are two principal purposes of this study: 1) to determine whether it is more beneficial for a liver transplant recipient candidate to pursue a living donor liver transplant (LDLT) or wait for a deceased donor liver transplant (DDLT), and 2) to study the impact of liver donation on the donor's health and quality of life.
NCT01009593
The primary objective of this study is to assess the overall survival (OS) of oral linifanib given as monotherapy once daily (QD) compared to sorafenib given twice daily (BID) per standard of care in subjects with advanced or metastatic HCC.
NCT02546609
The goal of this study is to determine if NS-0200 can reduce the amount of liver fat in patients diagnosed with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This study will compare two doses of NS-0200 to placebo in NAFLD patients.
NCT01937130
The study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and preliminary efficacy of IDN-6556 in subjects with cirrhosis of the liver who are hospitalized for more than 24 hours due to acute deterioration of liver function.
NCT02400164
The study is a multi-center, prospective, open label, uncontrolled feasibility study enrolling 30 patients with refractory or recurrent ascites and cirrhosis at up to 6 sites. Patients will be enrolled during a 6 month enrollment phase after which data will be collected for 12months with an initial analysis after 3 months. Extended follow-up for safety monitoring purposes will continue for the lifetime of the patient or until the device is explanted.
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.
NCT00687349
This research study is a randomized trial to evaluate a training program that is designed to improve the communication skills of clinicians. The training program focuses on care for patients with serious illnesses and their family members, and assesses effectiveness using patient and family outcomes. The long term goal of this research is to improve communication skills of doctors and nurses, thereby improving patient and family outcomes.
