Filter by:This study is investigate the influence of severe hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of acalabrutinib and its metabolite.
This study is a Clinical trial to assess the efficacy of nutrition support therapy of patients with liver failure. Patients were randomized to one of 2 groups to receive different nutrition and energy support treatment.
The purpose of this study is to assess how fast tirzepatide gets into the blood stream and how long it takes the body to remove it in participants with impaired liver function compared to healthy participants. The study will last about two months and will include five visits to the study center.
This study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of three types of nucleotide/nucleoside analogues in treatment of HBV-related acute-on-chronic liver failure.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cause of cancer death among men. While several new treatment options have recently become available, they are costly and have a potential for significant, adverse side effects. Many patients diagnosed with HCC also suffer from underlying liver disease, including cirrhosis. As many as 80-90% of patients diagnosed with HCC also have cirrhosis. Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) in cirrhosis is as high as 65-90% and significantly increases the risk of morbidity and mortality as well as decreased quality of life. Branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation has been extensively studied for usefulness in liver disease, specifically to treat hepatic encephalopathy to and preserve and restore muscle mass. Maintenance of liver function and prevention of PEM are essential for improving outcomes in patients with HCC. Branched-chain amino acid supplementation in HCC has been studied extensively in China & Japan with multiple studies showing improvements in liver function, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Additionally, patients in treatment groups have shown improvement in quality of life indicators. However, these results have yet to be replicated in the United States. Branched-chain amino acid supplementation may be a safe, low-cost approach to improve survival, liver function indicators, and quality of life for patients diagnosed with HCC. In this study, patients with primary HCC will be randomized to either a treatment group, which will receive standard of care and BCAA supplement or to a control group which will receive standard of care and a maltodextrin placebo. Both groups will receive liver-directed therapy including transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and thermal ablation. All patients will complete a quality of life survey (FACT-Hep) at each visit.
This is a prospective, comparative, open label, phase 2b study designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of LifeLiver (an Extracorporeal Bio Artificial Liver). The study will recruit approximately 40 acute or acute-on-chronic liver failure patients.
The optimal screening strategy for assessment of coronary artery disease in patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) is unclear. Although consensus based guidelines support noninvasive stress testing prior to orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), no prospective studies are available to inform the clinician on perioperative risk stratification. This observational cohort study was designed to determine the prognostic utility of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging in OLT candidates.
Safety and Efficacy of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation for Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure
This is an interventional, single arm, multicenter, phase I/IIa clinical trial. The study objective is to investigate the efficacy and safety of three i.v. doses of the investigational medicinal product (IMP) allo-APZ2-ACLF for the treatment of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). The allogeneic IMP allo-APZ2-ACLF contains skin-derived ABCB5-positive mesenchymal stem cells isolated from skin tissue of healthy donors and stored in a donor cell bank.
The primary objective of this trial is the evaluation of safety and tolerability in patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment [Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) classification A and B] over different dose regimes of BI 685509 compared to placebo. A secondary objective is to investigate pharmacokinetics of different doses of BI 685509 in patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (CTP A and CTP B). In addition, another secondary objective is to compare safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (CTP A and CTP B) of single BI 685509 dose to individually matched healthy volunteers
