Filter by:The aim of this study was to developed and validated models to predict hepatic decompensation and survivals in pediatric patients with cirrhosis and compared these models with currently available models.
The whole study includes 2 parts. Both the SAD study and MAD study are randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled studies, conducted in healthy subjects, to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics profiles of CS0159. The SAD part also involves a pilot food effect (FE) study, designed to assess the food effect on single-dose PK profile in healthy subjects.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare disease but is increasingly reported in China (mainly in the Chinese language). However, most of the PSC literatures reported from China are case reports, small case series, and review articles. Up to now, there is no information on the epidemiology and disease burden of PSC in China. This study would use EMR/HIS and research databases to investigate the epidemiology, cascade, and treatment pattern of PSC in China.
The purpose of this research is to create a collection of bile, bile duct brushings and medical information from people with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) and controls to learn more about changes that occur in the liver.
Background: Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a rare chronic liver disease. It affects the bile ducts of the liver. It can result in bile duct infections, cirrhosis, cancer, and end stage liver disease. Researchers want to learn more about this disease. Objective: To understand the biological causes of primary sclerosing cholangitis. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older who have primary sclerosing cholangitis. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. Participants will give blood, saliva, urine, and stool samples. They will have nasal swabs. They will complete surveys. Participants will get an intravenous (IV) catheter. A plastic tube is inserted into an arm vein. Participants will have a colonoscopy. A tube with a video camera at the end is inserted into the rectum. Participants will have an upper endoscopy. A scope with a light and camera at its tip is used to look inside the upper digestive tract. Participants will have a liver biopsy, entering through the chest wall or a neck vein. Blood is drawn from a blood vessel that carries blood to the liver. A liver tissue sample is taken. Participants will have magnetic resonance imaging or spectroscopy. They will get a contrast agent through an IV. Participants may have an optional bone marrow aspiration. A large needle is inserted into the hip to withdraw marrow. Participants will have a liver ultrasound. Participants will complete a 3-day food diary. They will have a nutrition assessment. Participants may give contact details for people who live with them, to also take part in this study. Participation will last for 12 months.
This research study is exploring the effects of dietary intervention in PSC. Study participants will be randomly assigned to either the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) or a vegan/low-sulfur diet for 8 weeks; the entire study will last approximately 14 weeks. Participants will work with BWH Registered Dieticians and receive dietary educational materials, recipes, and a food procurement stipend to support the new diet. Subjects will attend 7 video visits and have regular lab tests performed, requiring blood and stool samples.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn more about the use of the study medicine, volixibat, for the treatment of pruritus (itching) associated with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC), and to assess the possible impact on the disease progression of PSC.
This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability and activity of the anti-human CCL24 monoclonal antibody CM-101 in adult subjects with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC). At least 68 subjects at approximately 50 sites will be randomized to receive either CM-101 at doses of 10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg or matching placebo.
A Phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, placebo-controlled, study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of PLN-74809 in participants with primary sclerosing cholangitis and suspected liver fibrosis
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the effect of bezafibrate treatment compared to placebo on efficacy and safety in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and persistent cholestasis despite ursodeoxycholic acid therapy
