Effect of Naltrexone in Achieving and Maintaining Abstinence From Alcohol in Patients With Cirrhosis.

Liver Cirrhosis Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effect of Naltrexone in Achieving and Maintaining Abstinence From Alcohol in Patients With Cirrhosis- A Double Blind Randomized Controlled Trial.

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study is to study the safety and tolerability of Naltrexone in patients with Alcohol liver disease over a 12 week duration without liver related side effects. The project will be conducted at ILBS from March 2020 to February 2021. The concept is to estimate the usage of naltrexone and establish its safety in cirrhotics and study its effect on achieving and maintaining abstinence and in reducing lapses and relapses. Thereby reducing the progression of alcoholic liver disease as continued ethanol consumption is an important predictor in increasing overall morbidity and mortality. All ALD patients will be included as per inclusion and exclusion criteria, after taking informed consent from the patient or their relatives. In case of any reactions, the drug will be stopped as per the study stopping rule. After following the inclusion and exclusion criteria, ALD patients will be recruited into the study. It's a double blind RCT, hence both the patient and the investigator will be blinded and the drug will be issued by the trial co-ordinator after taking informed written consent and explaining the side effects. Naltrexone at a dose of 50 mg per day and placebo are included in the tablets. Placebo tablets will be identical in size, colour, shape, and taste. Naltrexone tablets will be entrusted to a family member to administer every dose and monitor for side effects.
