Filter by:This clinical trial is the first-in-human study of Kylo-0603. The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 1 study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and effect of food of Kylo-0603 in healthy Chinese adult subjects.
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand how the blood sugar-lowering hormone insulin works in healthy adults versus those who are at risk for type 2 diabetes. The study will use a drug called alpelisib, which interferes with insulin's actions in the body, to answer the study's main question: does the liver continue to respond to insulin's stimulation of fat production even when it loses the ability to stop making glucose (sugar) in response to insulin. Researchers will compare the impact of single doses of both alpelisib and placebo (inert non-drug) in random order (like flipping a coin) in study participants. Participants will be asked to stay twice overnight in the hospital, take single doses of alpelisib and placebo (one or the other on each of the two hospital stays), and receive intravenous (into the vein) infusions of non-radioactive "tracer" molecules that allow researchers to measure the production of glucose (sugar) and fats by the liver. Measurements will be done both overnight, while participants are asleep and fasting (not eating or drinking other than water) and while consuming a standardized diet of nutritional beverages during the following day. The objective is to evaluate the effect of lowering insulin levels, while maintaining constant mild hyperglycemia, on plasma glucose and lipid levels.
Hepatic steatosis is a disease that is becoming more common in our society; approximately 40% of the population suffers from non-alcoholic fatty liver. The beneficial effect of manual therapy for the treatment of viscera dysfunctions such as the stomach or colon is known. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the anti-inflammatory effects of visceral manual therapy in patients with metabolic liver disease associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver.
Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), which can lead to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, liver failure and even hepatocellular carcinoma, poses a significant burden on society. With the improvement of living standards and changes in dietary habits, MAFLD patients show a younger and increasing trend, but there is still no specific drug. The clinical features and prognosis of MAFLD may be different with different metabolic disorder phenotypes and treatment measures. Therefore, further systematic study of the clinical characteristics and prognosis of MAFLD patients will be of great significance for the formulation of corresponding clinical prevention and treatment strategies.
The goal of this pre-intervention study is test the acceptability of Asian version of the Mediterranean diet to NAFLD patients. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Whether Asian version of the Mediterranean diet that retains the nutritional composition and can be developed by mapping the components of the Mediterranean diet and finding substitute ingredients commonly eaten in Southeast Asia. 2. Whether the 4-week menu cycle of newly developed novel Asian Mediterranean diet is acceptable among Singaporean local population. Participants will participate in taste test sessions to find out if the Asian Mediterranean diet meals are acceptable to people with NAFLD.
The study will assess the efficacy and safety of 2 dose regimens of pegozafermin for the treatment of liver fibrosis stage 2 or 3 in adult participants with MASH (previously known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis [NASH]).
This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have - presumed or confirmed NASH together with overweight or obesity and - a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or more, or - a BMI of 27 kg/m² and at least one weight-related health problem. People with a history of other chronic liver diseases cannot take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called survodutide helps people living with obesity or overweight and a confirmed or presumed liver disease called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) to have less liver fat and to lose weight. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. 1 group gets different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but does not contain any medicine. Every participant has a 2 in 3 chance of getting survodutide. Participants and doctors do not know who is in which group. Participants inject survodutide or placebo under their skin once a week for about 1 year. In addition to the study medicine, all participants receive counselling to make changes to their diet and to exercise regularly. Participants are in the study for about 1 year and 3 months. During this time, it is planned that participants visit the study site up to 13 times and receive 3 phone calls by the site staff. The doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. The participants' body weight is regularly measured. At 3 of the visits, the participants' liver is measured using different imaging methods. The results are compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works.
The purpose of the KETONASH study is to evaluate, in patients with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and significant liver fibrosis, the effect of a very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) compared to that of a standard low-calorie diet (standard Mediterranean LCD - in accordance with the European Association for the Study of the Liver/European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism guidelines on MAFLD/NAFLD).
The aim of the study is to test the implication of esomeprazole as a possible potential therapy for patients with NASH through evaluating its effect on ultrasound and fibrosis risk scores, serum levels of liver fibrosis biomarkers (fibronectin 1), insulin resistance, metabolic and inflammatory parameters.
The study aims to evaluate the safety of J2H-1702 compared to the placebo and explore the efficacy of J2H-1702 at Week 12 timepoint after administration compared to baseline in patients with NASH.
