The study will evaluate the accuracy of hepatic steatosis estimation by thermo-acoustic ultrasound with estimation by MRI-PDFF (Proton Density Fat Fraction) . It will also evaluate the sensitivity of this device in the diagnosis of fatty liver.
The aims of the study are: 1. To investigate if carriers of apolipoprotein (apo) CIII loss-of-function (LOF) mutations produce less apo-CIII that results in reduction of large very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) particle secretion as compared to non-carriers of these variants and compare the results with carriers of apo-CIII gain-of-function (GOF) to elucidate the role of apo-CIII in hepatic lipid metabolism. 2. To study if carriers of the TM6SF2 E167K and PNLPLA3 I148M mutations produce less large VLDL particles to transport fat out of the liver as compared to non-carriers. 3. To test whether the specific mutations in the apo-CIII, TM6SF2 and PNLPLA3 genes are reflected in changes of liver de novo lipogenesis (DNL), liver fat, Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), plasma lipid and apolipoprotein kinetics and fasting concentrations in carriers of the TM6SF2 E167K and PNLPLA3 I148M mutations as compared to non-carriers. 4. To study the effects of APOE, angiopoietin (ANGPTL3 and ANGPTL8) or endothelial lipase (LIPG) genotypes on liver fat metabolism, lipid and apolipoprotein metabolism and lipid phenotypes.
Multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial is focused on novel treatments for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most common cause of chronic liver disease. The primary objective of the study is to determine the clinical efficacy and safety of Vitamin E [(all-rac)-α-tocopheryl acetate] and Omega-3 fatty acid (DHA EE) compared to placebo on reducing liver fat content in participants with NAFLD. There is currently no approved drug treatment for NAFLD or NASH. While several new targets are being evaluated, they are not sufficiently powered to provide definitive data. There is, therefore, a need for well-designed, appropriately powered efficacy (phase 2) trials to define the utility of newer therapies for NAFLD. The combination of Vitamin E and DHA may provide optimal benefit for patients with NAFLD due to their associated mechanisms of action, namely Vitamin E's antioxidant action, preventing lipid oxidation of long-chain fatty acids such as DHA and thus preventing the propagation of free radicals and ROS.
The EU-PNAFLD (The European Paediatric NALFD Registry) will be a network composed of European centres involved in the care of children with NAFLD, and will include Hepatologists, Endocrinologists, and Scientists, supported by relevant international specialists. This collaboration will build on existing infrastructure (local databases and bio-repositories) and will align with the adult European NAFLD Registry ("EPoS", Elucidating Pathways of Steatohepatitis study) to allow long-term follow-up supported by translational studies. Through an international, well-characterised large-scale cohort, we hope to: facilitate multi-centre clinical trials; extend our understanding of the key disease mechanisms of NAFLD; and establish the natural history of paediatric NAFLD.
This randomized, double-blind, cross-over (placebo or elafibranor [GFT505]) placebo-controlled study, will evaluate the effect on hepatic lipid composition and safety of elafibranor 120 mg quaque die (QD) versus placebo in an adult NAFL population after 6 weeks of treatment with a 4-week wash-out period. This study will achieve mechanistic information about the mode of action of Elafibranor on the (lipid) metabolism in the human fatty liver
Surgical management of Morbid Obesity is increasingly frequent. A low-calorie diet is recommended with the main goal of reducing intrahepatic fat infiltration, fat tissue and making easier the surgery. Information the use pharmacological interventions during the preoperative period in this population are rare.
This study measures the steatosis in patients With fatty livers as determined by CAP score from a fibroscan assessment. The study attempts to determine the effect of using the Medical Food Hepaxa in a Clinical setting Close to real-world use.
This clinical study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of trehalose in patients with fatty liver disease. After 12-week intake, subjects will be checked up fat content in liver using CT scan.
Blind, placebo-controlled study testing the hypothesis that oral dietary supplement rich with fucoxanthin will decrease biochemical clinical markers related to liver health.
