Filter by:A double-blind placebo controlled randomized Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of once-daily, oral administration of 80 or 100 mg resmetirom versus matching placebo. At least 100 patients will be enrolled in a 100 mg open-label arm and will include a special safety population (eg, patients with compensated NASH cirrhosis).
This study is a safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics phase Ⅰstudy of HEC96719, in healthy subjects.This study is the healthy adult subjects single ascending-dose research
Saroglitazar and Vitamin E are both being extensively used in India for non alcoholic fatty liver disease, though none of these drugs are FDA approved for this indication.However they are backed up by number of studies which shows improvement in liver function , reduction in NAS score. However, there is no head to head trial , nor is there any study with a paired biopsy comparing two arms for a head to head study. We therefore designed this study to see the effect of Vitamin E vs Vitamin E plus saroglitazar vs Saroglitazar alone when compared to standard dietary and weight loss treatment for NAFLD with raised ALT levels.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease in our environment. Preliminary data suggest that portal hypertension may exist in the initial phases of NAFLD due to mechanisms that have not yet been elucidated. The clinical relevance of its development in these initial phases is unknown, while in more advanced phases new data are required to confirm the close relationship between portal hypertension and the risk of decompensation described in other etiologies. Likewise, the influence of fibrosis and portal hypertension on the cardiovascular risk of patients with NAFLD is unknown. The aim of the present multicenter project is to characterize the presence of portal hypertension and the mechanisms involved in its development in the different stages of NAFLD, to assess the association between the degree of portal hypertension and the development of portal hypertension-related complications, to know the early cardiovascular risk in the different stages of the disease, and to identify noninvasive biomarkers of the presence and severity of portal hypertension.
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.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), one of the most frequent respiratory diseases, could represent a major worsening factor in a non alcoholic steatohepatitis and neoplastic context. Our hypothesis is that OSA promotes the prevalence of HCC related to NASH. This national, multicenter study aims to compare the prevalence of OSA in a group of patient curatively resected for NASH-related HCC with a group of HCV-related HCC.
This is a two arm, randomized, 4 week study comparing 2 methods of dietary sugar reduction at Emory University and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Participants will be non-diabetic children with NAFLD. Two groups of 6 participants will be followed for 4 weeks during the randomized controlled trial followed by a 20 week follow-up extension. One group will receive a guided grocery shopping (GGS) intervention for 4 weeks while the other group will be provided with a low free sugars (<3% total daily) diet. The goal of this study is to determine if guided grocery shopping (GGS) over 4 weeks is equivalent to complete family diet provision in reducing free sugar intake to <3% of total energy (TE) and if GGS will sustain the dietary change over 6 months.
Aims and objectives: The Investigator aimed to evaluate effect of adjustable intra gastric balloon on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease/non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NAFLD/NASH) with or without diabetes mellitus, who have failed to achieve >10% of total body weight with lifestyle interventions and pharmacotherapy for weight loss. The Investigator will evaluate NASH parameters such as NASH activity score(NAS), liver function tests along with weight loss and change in glycaemic control and changes in hormonal activity. Sample size: Based on previous study, to achieve median reduction of 40% in NAS score with 80% power and 0.05 as type 1 error; total sample size required is 36 cases.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the diagnostic performance of quantitative ultrasound imaging parameter for the assessment of hepatic steatosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease using magnetic resonance imaging proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) and MR spectroscopy as the reference standard.
This study will evaluate the effect of probiotics, a beneficial intestinal bacteria supplement, if it will cause improvement of the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH- an inflammation with concurrent fatty accumulation of the liver) as measured by transient elastography - an ultrasound of the liver that assess the elastic properties (density) and stiffness of the liver tissue. This study will enroll patients 18 years and older with diagnosis of NAFLD and or NASH.
