NCT ID: NCT00645021 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Study Examining The Effect Of Hepatic Impairment On Safety, Toleration And How The Body Processes An Experimental Drug

Start date: April 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

CP-945,598 is eliminated following extensive metabolism. Decrease hepatic function can affect its elimination from the body via metabolism. This study will therefore compare the pharmacokinetics (time course of drug concentrations in the body), safety, and tolerability of CP-945,598 in patients with mild and moderate hepatic impairment and healthy control subjects.

NCT ID: NCT00623662 Recruiting - Liver Failure Clinical Trials

Preoperative Glucose Infusion: a Novel Strategy to Improve Liver Function After Liver Resection

Start date: February 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of the study is to determine whether intravenous glucose administration before liver resection preserves hepatic glycogen resulting in improved hepatic metabolic function after the operation. We further investigate whether the benefit of avoiding preoperative fasting is more pronounced in patients undergoing more extensive liver resection.

NCT ID: NCT00518440 Completed - Acute Liver Failure Clinical Trials

A Multi-Center Trial to Study Acute Liver Failure in Adults

ALFSG
Start date: January 1998
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to collect clinical and epidemiological data as well as serum, plasma, urine, tissue and DNA samples on individuals who have acute liver failure and on individuals who have acute liver injury, a less severe group of patients who have coagulopathy but do not reach the threshold of encephalopathy.

NCT ID: NCT00509210 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatic Insufficiency

Study of Telaprevir in Subjects With Hepatic Impairment

Start date: September 2007
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of Telaprevir following administration of multiple oral doses to subjects with moderate and severe hepatic impairment.

NCT ID: NCT00416702 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatic Insufficiency

Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Indacaterol in Healthy Subjects and Those With Impaired Liver Function

Start date: November 2006
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic effects of indacaterol in subjects with impaired liver function in comparison with healthy subjects

NCT ID: NCT00314054 Completed - Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Study Evaluating the Safety of HCV-796 in Subjects With Liver Disease and in Healthy Adults

Start date: May 2006
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of HCV-796 in subjects with chronic hepatic impairment and in matched healthy adults.

NCT ID: NCT00147043 Completed - Liver Cirrhosis Clinical Trials

Adult Stem Cell Therapy in Liver Insufficiency

Start date: January 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In order to determine the clinical application potential of adult stem cells we propose to investigate the safety and toxicity of infusing adult stem cells in the hepatic artery or portal vein of five patients with chronic liver insufficiency and to identify any clinical benefit if such occurs. Objectives: 1. To assess safety and treatment related toxicities 2. To determine clinical benefit or deterioration by monitoring changes in liver function

NCT ID: NCT00144248 Completed - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

A Pharmacokinetic Study to Assess Nevirapine [Viramune] Levels in HIV Infected Patients With Impaired Hepatic Functions

Start date: June 25, 2004
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study was to evaluate the steady-state clearance of nevirapine among HIV-1 positive patients with hepatic fibrosis, and to examine whether the degree of hepatic impairment influences clearance.

NCT ID: NCT00135694 Completed - Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Gradual Withdrawal of Immune System Suppressing Drugs in Patients Receiving a Liver Transplant

A-WISH
Start date: October 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

In order to prevent organ rejection, patients receiving liver transplants currently require life-long treatment with immune system-suppressing medications to prevent the rejection of the transplanted liver. However, these medications can cause long-term side effects, such as infection, kidney problems, diabetes, and cancer. In patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV), these medications may increase the risk of HCV infection in the transplanted liver. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a slow withdrawal of immune system-suppressing medications is safe in two groups of subjects: those who receive a liver transplant due to HCV, and those who receive a liver transplant due to non-immune, non-viral causes of liver failure. The study will also look at whether slow withdrawal will help reduce the long-term side effects of immune system-suppressing medications and decrease the chance for HCV infection of the new liver in transplant patients with HCV.
