NCT ID: NCT06328517 Recruiting - Cirrhosis Clinical Trials

The Influence of Nutritional Factors on the Prognosis of Liver Cirrhosis Patients and the Exploration of Predictive Models

Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Cirrhosis is a progressive developing liver disease transforming normal hepatocytes into scar tissue with loss of function.The prevalence of cirrhosis has approximately tripled over the past two decades. With the increasing incidence of chronic liver disease, about 2 million people died from cirrhosis worldwide. Currently, D'Amico stage classification and Child-Pugh and Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores constitute the best tools to predict mortality in patients with Cirrhosis; however, one of their main limitations is the lack of evaluation of the nutritional and functional status. Patients with End-Stage Liver Disease (ESLD) have reduced nutritional intake, hypermetabolism, increased energy expenditure, impaired fasting adaptability, decreased hepatic glycogen reserves, and increased consumption of protein as the main energy donor that often lead to malnutrition, therefore, malnutrition is one of the most common complications in patients with Cirrhosis, is closely related to the increase in morbidity and mortality. Moreover, malnutrition is closely related to the high incidence of infection, ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, and hepatorenal syndrome, and is an independent risk factor affecting the survival rate of patients with End-Stage Liver Disease, including liver transplantation. Therefore, malnutrition should be treated as equally important complications such as ascites and hepatic encephalopathy, and accurate screening, evaluation and appropriate nutritional intervention measures should be taken to improve the prognosis of patients with Cirrhosis. This study aims to establish a nomogram model about nutritional factors to predict the prognosis of patients with Cirrhosis, verify and optimize the model, through the establishment of the model, to more comprehensively evaluate and predict the prognosis of patients with Cirrhosis from the perspective of nutrition, to provide sufficient basis and lay a solid foundation for further nutritional intervention and improve patient prognosis.

NCT ID: NCT06328088 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Hepatic Encephalopathy

Vegetarian Versus Non Vegetarian Based Diet in the Recurrence of Hepatic Encephalopathy in Patients With Cirrhosis: An Open Label Pilot Study

Start date: February 16, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Earlier protein restriction was advocated in the treatment of HE but later this concept was refuted and increase protein intake was advocated in patients with HE. Diet in patients during an episode HE is also not known. It is advisable based on many case reports or case series that vegetable-based diet during the episode of HE is better than animal-based diet as it reduces ammonia level and other false neurotransmitters in brain and helps in early recovery of, HE . However, diet in patients who had recovered from an episode of, HE is not known and what type of protein (vegetarian or non-vegetarian) should be taken to prevent another episode of HE has never been evaluated. In India majority of the patients are vegetarian and patients with cirrhosis are malnourished and lack protein in their diet as per our previous published study

NCT ID: NCT06322446 Recruiting - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

Exercise in People With Cystic Fibrosis on CFTR Modulator Therapy

FIQMODE
Start date: February 27, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Recently, the treatment of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) incorporated new modulators/enhancers of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR). It is thus increasingly important to study the side effects of these drugs, their extrapulmonary effects and possible interaction with other drugs and with exercise. For this purpose, a randomized controlled trial is proposed to determine the effects of a telematic exercise intervention on muscle health, in a group of 48 children and adolescents with CF treated with these new generation CFTR modulators. They will be randomly assigned to two groups (exercise and control group). The effect of the intervention will be analysed measuring the variables of muscle health, cardiorespiratory fitness, lung function, body composition, inflammatory biomarkers and miRNAs. After completion of the intervention program, adherence to exercise and clinical evolution after one year will be analysed.

NCT ID: NCT06318169 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASH) / Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) With Fibrosis

A Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Pegozafermin in Participants With MASH and Fibrosis (ENLIGHTEN-Fibrosis)

Start date: March 2024
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

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]).

NCT ID: NCT06308757 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Role of the Very Low Calorie Ketogenic Diet (VLCKD) in Patients With Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) With Fibrosis

KETONASH
Start date: September 29, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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).

NCT ID: NCT06306508 Recruiting - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

Effect of Parental Attitude on Functional and Physical Level of Children With Cystic Fibrosis

Start date: February 16, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Some parents may be more protective of children with CF due to concerns about worsening of the disease due to infection, which can affect their functional level. The goal of this observational study is to learn about the family's protective approach to the functioning and disease course of children with cystic fibrosis (CF) to determine whether there are possible negative effects. There will be an alternative viewpoint offered to clinicians regarding the management of CF with outputs of this study.

NCT ID: NCT06293378 Recruiting - Cirrhosis, Liver Clinical Trials

Safety and Effectiveness of Sulfasalazine in the Treatment of Liver Fibrosis/Cirrhosis.

Start date: February 28, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a controlled, observational clinical study initiated by investigators to investigate the efficacy and safety of sulfasalazine in the treatment of cirrhosis in patients with cirrhosis. Four cohorts were planned: primary biliary cirrhosis, hepatitis B and C cirrhosis, and alcoholic cirrhosis. The four groups were divided into experimental group and control group, and the experimental group: each group of patients was orally treated sulfasalazine for 12 months, taken three times a day, each time taking 0.5g. The control group did not take sulfasalazine. After 12 months, changes in fecal flora and metabolites before and after the use of sulfasalazine were observed.

NCT ID: NCT06284577 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Cystic Fibrosis in Children

Quality of Life and Gut Health in Pediatric Patients With Cystic Fibrosis

Start date: January 2, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of probiotic supplementation on GI related quality of life, through a randomised placebo-controlled clinical trial. Moreover, the invetigators wish to study CF microbiota and intestinal inflammation in the setting of probiotic supplementation and newly started treatment with a highly effective CF-specific treatment, elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (ETI). The proposed project has the potential to increase QoL and decrease GI morbidity in children with CF. If successful, the results of this study can contribute to alter the care of CF patients by including supplementation of probiotics in routine CF care. Morever, the study can provide much needed insights to GI microbiota and inflammation in pediatric CF patients.

NCT ID: NCT06277882 Recruiting - Cirrhosis Clinical Trials

Efficacy and Durability of Hepatitis A Vaccination in Patients With Advanced Fibrosis and Cirrhosis

Start date: February 29, 2024
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The hepatitis A virus (HAV) is a significant global public health concern. The hepatitis A virus is transmitted primarily by the faecal-oral route, leading to acute hepatitis. Symptoms include low-grade fever, anorexia, jaundice, and typically resolve without complications. However, HAV infection in patients with chronic liver disease, especially those over 50 years old, may result in more severe outcomes, including fulminant hepatitis, with a higher mortality rate compared to the general population HAV vaccination is a cornerstone of prevention, especially in high-risk groups. Currently, there is a recommendation to vaccinate patients with chronic liver disease against HAV infection. However, these patients often have compromised immune responses, leading to lower vaccine efficacy compared to the general population. The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of the standard 2-dose (0, 6 months) hepatitis A vaccination regimen with an intensive 3-dose (0, 1, 6 months) schedule in patients with advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Compared the seroconversion rate of the standard 2-dose (0, 6 months) hepatitis A vaccination regimen versus the intensive 3-dose (0, 1, 6 months) hepatitis A vaccination regimen in patients with advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis. - Compared the antibody levels against the hepatitis A virus (Anti-HAV IgG) of the standard 2-dose (0, 6 months) hepatitis A vaccination regimen versus the intensive 3-dose (0, 1, 6 months) hepatitis A vaccination regimen in patients with advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis.
