Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a drug called semaglutide and to see whether it can reduce IHTG. IHTG will be measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI; an MRI machine contains a powerful magnet that uses simple radio waves to take pictures of organs). Semaglutide (brand name Ozempic®) is a drug that is used to treat people who have diabetes; it also causes weight loss and may provide some protection against cardiovascular disease and diabetes. In PLWH, the use of semaglutide to reduce weight and the level of IHTG are experimental.
Dairy consumption has shown associations with decreased incidence of cardiometabolic diseases. With the growing interest in plant-based eating, and the mounting evidence for the cardiovascular benefits of plant forward diets, national dietary guidelines have pivoted away from promoting exclusive daily dairy consumption. Soymilk is the most nutritionally comparable non-dairy plant-based alternative to cow's milk. Although the DGA, Health Canada, and various pediatric associations recognize fortified soymilk as the only non-dairy alternative equivalent to cow's milk and it can carry an approved health claim for coronary heart disease risk reduction based on the soy protein that it contains, soymilk is classified by the NOVA classification as an ultra-processed food (the opposite of the classification of cow's milk as an unprocessed or minimally processed food). To be an acceptable iso-sweet alternative to cow's milk, soymilk is also often sweetened with sucrose, which is designated as an added sugar, whereas the lactose that sweetens cow's milk is not (despite lactose in cow's milk being present in quantities that are double that of sucrose in soymilk products designed to be iso-sweet analogues of cow's milk). With near universal recommendations from major public health authorities to reduce the intake of both ultra-processed foods and added sugars and the FDA proposing to update its "healthy" claim criteria to limit added sugars, the role of soymilk as a "healthy" non-dairy alternative to cow's milk is in serious question. The effect of soy protein on other cardiometabolic outcomes is also unclear. To address this question and better inform health claims and guideline development, the investigators will conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of the effect of soy protein as soy milk, in substitution for cow's milk, on various intermediate cardiometabolic mediators.
A phase 2b, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of HTD1801 in adult subjects with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis who have type 2 diabetes mellitus or pre-diabetes.
This study aims at evaluating and comparing the protective outcomes of using Obeticholic acid versus Vitamin E in NASH patients without cirrhosis. The intervention is 6-months duration and the study will assess the efficacy of either drug as fibrosis improvement (≥ 1 stage) with no worsening of NASH or NASH resolution with no worsening of fibrosis with the study considered successful if either 1ry end point is met. . Also, assessment of biochemical markers related to steatosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance and liver fibrosis will be done.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-dosing, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Rencofilstat as evidenced by histopathological improvements in fibrosis in adult NASH subjects with F2 or F3 fibrosis (NASH CRN system). Antifibrotic biomarker activity will be evaluated on an exploratory basis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cotadutide in participants with non-cirrhotic NASH with fibrosis.
To determine the distribution of visceral fat in people living with HIV (PLHIV) with NAFLD by clinical anthropometric indicators (wais-to-hip ratio), lipid accumulation product (waist circumference and triglycerides) and radiological techniques such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) (trunk fat mass and fat mass through dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry).
This is a Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multiple arm, multicenter study of 3 different doses of HPG1860 versus placebo in subjects with biopsy-confirmed or phenotypic NASH.
This optional sub study is a part of the phase 1b, Open-Label Study is to assess the safety, efficacy of miricorilant in patients with presumed Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pentoxifylline in the treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patients.
