Filter by:Live donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is the treatment of choice for end-stage liver disease, predominantly in the East, where deceased donor liver transplantation is sparse. In LDLT, donor selection has to be stringent; as the donor safety is thepriority. Live liver donors (LLD) with complex biliary and vascular anatomy are increasingly being accepted for donation with the betterment of technical expertise. One of the commonest reasons for LLD rejection is the hepatic parenchymal abnormality because ofsteatosis and steatohepatitis, which can increase the donor risk. Retrospective analysis of donors with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH) who were optimized and taken up for major hepatectomy from June 2011 to January 2018will be performed.
the current study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Montelukast in the treatment of patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an aggressive form of NAFLD with remarkable inflammatory features which may cause advanced fibrosis and liver cancer. So far there is no FDA-approved drug for treating NASH. A 10% weight loss by life style modification is a standard recommendation to treat NASH which achieves only 10-20% success rate in clinical practice. Thus, the development of therapeutics to prevent and treat NASH is certainly an unmet need. For now, the mechanism of how simple steatosis progresses to NASH remains unclear and accumulating evidences suggest the role of gut microbiota may be essential. Studies have also noted the bariatric surgery effectively improve diabetes and NASH with significant alterations in the composition and function of gut microbiome. In this study, the investigators aim to investigate the role of gut microbiota in the pathophysiology of NASH by comparing NAFLD severity, gut microbiome, metabolomics, immune profiles among patients before and after the bariatric surgery. With these efforts, the investigators wish to decipher the mechanism of how bariatric surgery may improve NASH through changing the gut microbiota and find out microbe-associated molecular signatures between NASH and NAFLD through this study.
The Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics Study of Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) treatment drug HEC96719 in Healthy Male and Female Subjects
A randomized, double-blind study to assess the safety and efficacy of EDP-305 in subjects with liver-biopsy proven Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
Researchers are assessing the prevalence of Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) in the population and assembling a well-characterized cohort of adults with NAFLD and NASH to validate models of NAFLD diagnosis and determine long-term outcomes.
The study will evaluate the accuracy of hepatic steatosis estimation by thermo-acoustic ultrasound with estimation by MRI-PDFF (Proton Density Fat Fraction) . It will also evaluate the sensitivity of this device in the diagnosis of fatty liver.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple doses of ARO-HSD in healthy adult volunteers and in patients with NASH or suspected NASH.
Multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial is focused on novel treatments for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most common cause of chronic liver disease. The primary objective of the study is to determine the clinical efficacy and safety of Vitamin E [(all-rac)-α-tocopheryl acetate] and Omega-3 fatty acid (DHA EE) compared to placebo on reducing liver fat content in participants with NAFLD. There is currently no approved drug treatment for NAFLD or NASH. While several new targets are being evaluated, they are not sufficiently powered to provide definitive data. There is, therefore, a need for well-designed, appropriately powered efficacy (phase 2) trials to define the utility of newer therapies for NAFLD. The combination of Vitamin E and DHA may provide optimal benefit for patients with NAFLD due to their associated mechanisms of action, namely Vitamin E's antioxidant action, preventing lipid oxidation of long-chain fatty acids such as DHA and thus preventing the propagation of free radicals and ROS.
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.
