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).
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.
NCT02230670
This is a multicenter study to see if treatment with IDN-6556 can help improve the liver function of patients with liver cirrhosis with Model for End-Stage Liver Disease scores between 11-18.
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.
NCT00074386
With improved anti-HIV drug therapy, HIV infected patients are now living longer. These patients are at risk for liver and kidney failure and may need organ transplants. However, little is know about the safety and effectiveness of organ transplants in patients with HIV. This study will evaluate organ transplantation in HIV infected patients undergoing liver and kidney transplants.
NCT01687257
This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy of combination therapy with sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) for 48 weeks in adults with compensated and decompensated chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Approximately 50 adults will be randomized (1:1) to receive study drug for 48 weeks or take part in an untreated observational arm for the first 24 weeks followed by study drug for another 48 weeks.
NCT01163240
The purpose of this study is to collect epidemiological data in children and adolescents with chronic hepatitis B(CHB), in particular data on the prevalence of HBeAg positive disease with associated ALT levels , active HBeAg negative disease and decompensated CHB in the pediatric population. Family history and history of HBV transmission is essential to assess the course of the disease and can be used to determine the best mode of treatment This information will be used to assist with the feasibility and design of studies for the Novartis clinical pediatric development program, as the current epidemiology of ediatric CHB is not accurately known in Western countries or the rest of the world making pediatric studies difficult to plan and conduct. This study forms part of the Novartis Pediatric Investigational Plan, a post marketing approval commitment to the EMEA Pediatric Committee.
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.
