Study of [14C]CS0159 in China Healthy Subjects.
The objectives of this study is to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Aramchol Meglumine in Patients with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
This is an Investigator Initiated, single center, non-randomized, single arm study utilizing TruGraf liver gene expression serial testing in patients with autoimmune liver diseases (AIH, PSC, PBC) monthly for the first 6 months after transplant to help inform immunosuppression (IS) optimization. Approximately 20 patients will be enrolled in the study. Study outcomes will include 1-year graft survival, 1 year BPAR and clinically treated rejection rates, number of changes to IS based on the results of Trugraf, eGFR and immune mediated issues. TruGraf®, (Transplant Genomics, Inc., a member of Eurofins Transplant Diagnostics) is a non-invasive blood-based test to assist the clinician in lowering immunosuppression in liver transplant patients. It is the first and only blood-based test that offers biomarker guidance to aid physicians in minimizing immunosuppression in transplant recipients. Unfortunately, achieving the tight control of therapeutic levels of immunosuppression that is required to maintain the balance between "too much" and "too little" can be difficult. TruGraf liver can help clinicians confirm immune "quiescence" prior to, as well as following, immunosuppression reduction in patients with stable graft function, minimizing the risk of overt graft injury due to rejection. The clinical context of use for TruGraf is to provide reassurance to the clinician who is contemplating a preemptive reduction in IS therapy that a patient's immune status is "quiescent" thus reducing the risk of triggering acute rejection with that IS reduction. Having the ability to assess whether the patient's immune status is "quiescent" or activated when considering an increase or decrease in IS therapy allows the clinician greater confidence in decision making.
To Determine the Effects of Seladelpar on Normalization of Alkaline Phosphatase Levels in Subjects with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and an Incomplete Response or Intolerance to Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA)
To Evaluate the Effect of Seladelpar on Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and Compensated Cirrhosis.
CM-101 is developed as treatment for medical conditions involving inflammatory and fibrotic mechanisms such as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and systemic sclerosis (SSc). In this current study, the IP is tested in healthy male volunteers.
The aim of this study is to investigate clinical effects (liver biochemistries, health-related quality of life, liver stiffness) and underlying mechanisms of hepatoprotection of S-adenosylmethionine in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis. The study will be performed in a randomized and placebo-controlled fashion.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive disease of the biliary tree, which represents one of the most frequent indications for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLTx) in developed countries. There are several lines of evidence that dietary gluten/gliadin displays chronic pro-inflammatory, LPS-like properties. Recent evidence demonstrated the protective effect of gluten- free diet (GFD) in autoimmune diseases like type 1 diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome, non-celiac gluten sensitivity and some neurological disorders. This study is intended to explore therapeutic effect of GFD on PSC and IBD in prospective self-controlled mono-centric intervention study. Hypothesis: Avoidance of gluten in diet will reduce progression, symptoms and intestinal inflammation in PSC and UC patients.
The participants of this study will have confirmed Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC). Participants will also have inadequate response or intolerance to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) a drug used to treat PBC. PBC is a disease that progresses slowly. It causes damage to the bile ducts in the liver, leading to a build-up of bile acids which causes further damage. The liver damage in PBC may lead to scarring (cirrhosis). PBC may also be associated with multiple symptoms. Many people with PBC may require liver transplant or may die if the disease progresses and a liver transplant is not done. This study will compare a daily dose of elafibranor (the study drug) to a daily dose of placebo (a dummy treatment). Each participant will be in the study up to about 7 years. The main aim of this study is to determine if elafibranor is better than placebo in preventing clinical outcome events showing disease worsening (including progression of disease leading to liver transplant or death). This study will also study the safety of long-term treatment with elafibranor, as well as the impact on symptoms such as itching and tiredness.
