Filter by:Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is the most common and harmful chronic liver disease, and it is increasingly diagnosed in many developed and developing countries. Previous studies suggested a significant association between hyperuricemia and MAFLD and that hyperuricemia plays a causal role in the development of MAFLD. Xanthine oxidase is a key enzyme in uric acid metabolism, and It thus can be considered as is a therapeutic target for MAFLD, so long-term urate-lowering therapy may play a role in amelioration of MAFLD by controlling uric acid levels. So, this study is conducted to assess the effect of controlling hyperuricemia using different xanthine oxidase inhibitors on amelioration of MAFLD.
The design of the Phase 2 clinical trial includes the following elements: - Multi-center, two-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate MN-001 (tipelukast) vs. placebo in approximately 40 patients in the U.S. - Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either 500 mg/day of MN-001 (tipelukast) or placebo for 24 weeks. - The co-primary endpoints are (1) change from baseline in liver fat content measured by controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) score at Week 24, and (2) change from baseline in fasting serum triglycerides at Week 24. FebroScan is a non-invasive, quantitative, and accurate measure of liver fat content commonly used in early phase trials to measure treatment response. - Secondary endpoints include safety and tolerability and changes in lipid profile (HDL-C, LDL-C, and total cholesterol).
This research study is creating a way to collect and store specimens and information from participants who may be at an increased risk of developing cancer, or has been diagnosed with an early phase of a cancer or a family member who has a family member with a precursor condition for cancer. - The objective of this study is to identify exposures as well as clinical, molecular, and pathological changes that can be used to predict early development of cancer, malignant transformation, and risks of progression to symptomatic cancer that can ultimately be fatal. - The ultimate goal is to identify novel markers of early detection and risk stratification to drive potential therapeutic approaches to intercept progression to cancer.
This is a Phase 2, Double-Blind, Randomized, Multicenter, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of ASC41 in Adults with Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH).
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of dapagliflozin on liver function of patient with NAFLD and T2DM.
Obesity and overweight are noncommunicable diseases with increasing incidence in children, adolescents and adults. In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults aged 18 and over were overweight and over 650 million were obese (WHO). In the EU-27 (Eurostat data), 45.7% of women and 60.2% of men were overweight, while 16.3% and 16.8%, respectively, were obese. The growing incidence of overweight and obesity generate worldwide increasing incidence of related conditions as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, metabolic disorders, and cancer, with relevant socio-economical (increase in health costs, increase in disabilities) and environmental consequences (unsustainability of food models, increase in ecological footprint, worsening of climate changes). A transformation of food systems and individual behaviours are necessary to improve the quality of life and the sustainability of lifestyle, which should be oriented at preventing o treating overweight and obesity.
In this study, 18-60 years old patients with metabolic associated fatty liver disease（MAFLD） will be recruited to test the intervention effect of vegetarian diet. This randomized clinical trial randomized individuals to a healthy vegetarian diet or a healthy omnivorous diet for 24 weeks. At the baseline and after the 24week intervention, the clinical manifestations of MAFLD, obesity levels, indices for glucose and lipid metabolism parameters, results of questionnaire and fecal samples will be collected and analyzed.
The study was planned in 2 parts: Parts A and B. In Part A, we tested 2 single doses of the study medicine in healthy volunteers: 500 mg and 750 mg. Part B was an optional part to test once-daily doses of the study medicine in healthy volunteers. We aimed to assess the safety, tolerability find out the side effects and blood levels of the PXL770.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) represents a serious public health problem. Patients with T2D and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) demonstrate a poor metabolic profile and increase mortality compared with patients with only NAFLD or T2D. Nutritional intervention is the most basic treatment for T2D. Previous study showed that a Chinese medical nutrition therapy (CMNT) diet, which intermittent use of low-calorie medicinal food, has a glucose-lowering effect in T2D. This study aims to investigate the effect of a Chinese medical nutrition therapy (CMNT) diet accompanied by intermittent energy restriction on reducing liver fat and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in patients with T2D and NAFLD.
Our study aims to evaluate whether the Emergency Department (PS) can support the health system to improve the prevention and management of chronic inflammatory diseases and ensure actions aimed at screening, raising awareness and informing the population. Specifically, the determination of the prevalence of a widely diffused pathology such as fatty liver disease aims to be the precursor of future pilot studies aimed at evaluating the advantages and critical issues of the PS as a prevention tool.
