View clinical trials related to Chronic Liver Disease.
Filter by:Patients with chronic liver disease due to hepatitis B or C viruses, Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, wilson disease, cryptogenic hepatitis etc are prone to develop complications. Hepatic encephalopathy is one of such complications. It is graded into four types depending on severity of clinical features, which range through altered sleep pattern to coma. The current study aims to compare the effectiveness of lactulose enema with oral lactulose in time to recovery from higher grade of encephalopathy to lower grade of encephalopathy.
TARGET-Liver Disease (TARGET-LD) is an observational research study to conduct a comprehensive review of outcomes for patients with chronic liver disease (CLD).
The primary objective is to confirm the clinical performance and safety of the GORE® VIATORR® TIPS (Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt) Endoprosthesis with Controlled Expansion throughout the device functional lifetime of 3 years in real world setting. The secondary objective is to collect information on quality of life after treatment with the GORE® VIATORR® TIPS Endoprosthesis with Controlled Expansion. Additionally, data will be collected on the safety and performance of the GORE TIPS Set when utilized.
Chronic liver disease is a global public health problem. Without timely diagnosis and treatment, chronic liver disease can progress to hepatitis, liver fibrosis, and cirrhosis, while causing a variety of complications such as gastrointestinal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, and liver cancer. Early detection and treatment can slow down the progression of chronic liver disease and reduce the burden of patients. This study intends to construct a retrospective-prospective cohort of patients with chronic liver disease by building a multicenter collaborative network to study the disease characteristics, progression patterns, clinical features, natural course and long-term prognosis of chronic liver disease of different etiologies.
Part A: In Patients With Chronic Liver Diseases, LAENNEC (Human Placenta Hydrolysate) is to Assess Safety and Tolerability After the Doses of Doses. Part B: Part A, it is to Determine the Optimal Dose by Evaluating Two Capacity and Placebo Groups.
To evaluate local tumor progression rate at 12 months after percutaneous radiofrequency ablation with gradual radiofrequency energy delivery mode with Octopus electrodes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
Hepatic steatosis may cause inflammation and fibrosis within the liver potentially leading to end-stage liver disease cirrhosis, liver failure and death. The condition is associated with several other chronic liver diseases like autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, hereditary hemochromatosis and alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency and may also develop secondary to other diseases like inflammatory bowel disease and chronic pancreatitis. Diagnosing chronic liver diseases can be challenging and treatment may be limited. In-depth phenotyping at a tissue level may generate insight into the underlying pathophysiology of diseases and furthermore identify common as well as specific diagnostic biomarkers and future treatment targets of the diseases. We therefore undertake a study that evaluates patients with chronic liver diseases associated with hepatic steatosis.
Primary objective is to study the relevance of non-invasive test (NITs) in predicting disease stage (diagnostic biomarker) and outcome (predictive biomarker) in patients with suspected or established liver disease and cirrhosis.
To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of delta radiomics-derived index based on Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI as a new imaging biomarker for the quantitative assessment of liver function.
A single blind randomized controlled trial was conducted to compare the effect of counselling and visual aid on the anxiety levels in patients undergoing endoscopy and to investigate the superiority of visual aid over psychological counselling and preparation for the procedure in an informed patient.
