Filter by:Biliary stricture is a common complication after end-to-end biliary anastomosis, especially after liver transplantation. This study is designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of magnetic recanalization technique, a newly clinical method, for treating biliary anastomotic stricture.
Evaluate the long-term safety of maralixibat (MRX) in subjects with cholestatic liver disease including, but not limited to, Alagille Syndrome (ALGS), Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis (PFIC) and Biliary Atresia.
This is an open-label, non-comparator, global, multi-center, long-term safety study for evaluating safety and tolerability of linerixibat in participants with cholestatic pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) who participated in a prior clinical trial with linerixibat (BAT117123 [NCT01899703], 201000 GLIMMER [NCT02966834] (group 1) or 212620 GLISTEN [NCT00210418]) (group 2). All participants will receive open-label linerixibat for the duration of the study. The study duration is expected to last until the study's end or until linerixibat can be lawfully made available to participants. However, the total duration of study participation will vary by participant depending upon the time of entry relative to study end in their respective country.
This registry is to evaluate the procedural and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing endoscopic treatment of bile duct stones when utilizing an algorithmic management approach.
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is a group of disorders that can present early in life with cholestasis and intractable pruritus. Their treatment poses a great challenge, with medical treatment is not successful in many cases. Moreover, the available non-transplant surgeries carry many side effects and different degrees of efficacy. Partial external biliary diversion, internal biliary diversion, and ileal exclusion still lack widespread experience with many side effects. Nasobiliary stent placement has little tolerability, especially in younger age. Gastrobiliary tube is a novel modality for external biliary diversion in such patients.
In participants with inadequate response/intolerance to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) taking obeticholic acid (OCA) who experience pruritus (due to primary biliary cholangitis [PBC], OCA, or both) the addition of linerixibat to OCA therapy may be considered following marketing approval. It is therefore important to characterize any potential effect of linerixibat on the pharmacokinetics of OCA in humans at clinically relevant dosages. Accordingly, a drug-drug interaction (DDI) study with linerixibat (potential perpetrator) and OCA (potential victim) will be conducted to inform both future clinical trials with linerixibat and the potential concomitant administration of these drugs in a clinical setting. This is a single-center, one part (with optional second part) open-label, single sequence crossover, drug interaction study to investigate the effect of linerixibat on plasma concentrations of OCA and OCA conjugates in healthy participants. Approximately 19 participants will be enrolled in part A and further 19 participants in part B (if performed) in the study and will have a phone call follow-up till 7-14 days post-last linerixibat dose.
The management of biliary strictures depends on their correct pre-operative evaluation which remains challenging. Despite the emerging multitudes of new diagnostic opportunities and modalities which exist today, there is still a large number of biliary stenosis misdiagnosed with a profound negative impact on the patients´ outcome. The study´s aim is to compare the diagnostic yield of primary peroral cholangioscopy and ERCP (with conventional sampling - brushing and forceps biopsy - completed with the FISH) in patients with suspected malignant stricture of the common bile duct and to evaluate the impact of both methods on the management of patients with biliary stricture.
DIGEST I Pilot study is a feasibility study for evaluating the safety and efficacy of DCBs.
Absorption, metabolism and excretion of linerixibat have been studied in previous clinical trials. However, no dedicated clinical studies of drug absorption, metabolism, and excretion have been conducted for linerixibat. The purpose of this study is to determine the PK, balance/excretion, and metabolism of radiolabeled 14 Carbon [14C]-linerixibat following a single intravenous (IV) radiolabeled microtracer dose (concomitant with a non-radiolabeled oral dose) and a single oral radiolabeled dose. This is a single group, two period, single sequence, and mass balance study will enroll 6 healthy male subjects. Each subject will be involved in the study for up to 10 weeks which includes screening period, two treatment periods (treatment Periods 1 and 2), separated by about 7 days (at least 13 days between oral doses), and a follow-up visit 1-2 weeks after the last assessment in treatment Period 2.
The purpose of this study is to assess the interobserver agreement (IOV) for pancreatico-biliary Volumetric Laser Endomicroscopy (VLE) de-identified clips using the new VLE criteria. This is an Interobserver study to validate VLE criteria for indeterminate biliary and pancreatic duct strictures and evaluate impact on clinical management.
