Filter by: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.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of BFKB8488A compared to placebo in participants with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
This Phase 1, first-in-human (FiH), single-ascending-dose (SAD) study, will assess the safety and tolerability and characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD2693, following subcutaneous (SC) SAD administration of AZD2693 in male and female subjects of non-childbearing potential in overweight but otherwise healthy subjects, and healthy Chinese and Japanese subjects.
The investigators propose that the sensitivity to glucagon in hepatic lipid metabolism is impaired in subjects with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and steatohepatitis (NASH). Moreover, they propose a dys-coordinated, reduced glucagon sensitivity in hepatic lipid metabolism and endogen glucose production in patients with NAFLD and NASH compared with healthy subjects and patients with simple steatosis. This reduced sensitivity may be the basis of a more severe dyslipidemia and the production of increased concentrations of toxic lipid intermediates in plasma and muscle tissue. The study will include healthy subjects with obesity and subjects with simple steatosis and NASH, tested at basal glucagonemia and moderate hyperglucagonemia to mimic insulin resistant levels during simultaneous somatostatin infusion and replacement doses of insulin and growth hormone. Infusion of palmitate, VLDL-triglyceride and glucose tracers in combination with indirect calorimetry as well as skeletal and adipose tissue biopsies will be employed to assess free fatty acid and VLDL-triglyceride kinetics (turnover, and oxidation) and hepatic fatty acid-esterification.
Semaglutide is a medicine studied in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), as it may improve liver damage. Participants will either get semaglutide or placebo (a dummy medicine) - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. The study will last for about 61 weeks in total. Participants will have 10 clinic visits and 3 phone calls with the study doctor or staff during the study. Some of the clinic visits may be spread over more days. Participants will need to inject themselves with medicine under the skin. Participants will have to do this once a week for 48 weeks. The study includes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the liver, 1 or 2 liver tissue samples, ultrasound scans of the stomach and a possible examination of the food pipe. For some tests participants may need to remove some items of clothing. Participants will stop in the study if the doctor thinks that there are any risks for their health. The information collected from participants during the study may help them and other patients with NASH in the future. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study period.
This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adults with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitis on stable dose of metformin monotherapy. Participants will be treated for 16 weeks with placebo or 1 of 2 doses of investigational product to determine the effect on liver fat, HbA1c, safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamics.
Gut-derived endotoxaemia, microbial imbalance and bacterial translocation play an increasingly recognized role in the progression from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to its more advanced state, NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis). Animal model studies confirmed that Yaq-001 reduces liver injury and prevents steatosis in these models which leads to the theoretical potential of Yaq-001 altering the microbiome and gut permeability in patients with NASH. The purpose of this clinical trial is to study the safety and tolerability of Yaq-001 in patients with NASH. Results from this study will lead to the design of future pivotal performance and safety trials for registration purposes. Candidate patients must be between 18-70 years old and have a clinical diagnosis of NASH, determined histologically or phenotypically, as well as meeting other clinical inclusion/exclusion criteria. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive standard of care treatment plus Yaq-001, or standard of care treatment plus placebo). The treatment lasts for 48 weeks. During treatment, the patient will have 6 study visits. At all the visits, the patients will undergo a routine physical examination, electrocardiogram, collection of blood and urine samples. On three occasions the patients will be asked to provide additional samples of blood, urine and stool for analysis outside the hospital. On two occasions the patient will have a liver Multiscan and on three occasions the patient will have a liver Fibroscan. 70 patients from 9 hospitals in UK, France, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Switzerland will participate in this study.
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of Nesinaact on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based proton density-fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) and liver fibroscan in patients with type 2 diabetes. This is a prospective, open-label, single-arm, single-center clinical Study. After 24 weeks of Nesinaact 25/15 (Alogliptin benzoate 25mg, pioglitazone hydrochloride 15mg) treatment, the improvement of parameters estimated by MRI and liver fibroscan will be estimated.
Background: In non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), fat accumulates in the liver and can cause damage. Researchers want to learn what causes the damage NAFLD, and to see if a medication can help. Objective: To find out how the liver in people with NAFLD responds to feeding, and how this relates to their response to the drug semaglutide. Eligibility: People with NAFLD and healthy volunteers ages 18 and older Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood tests Imaging: A machine will take pictures of the participant s body. Within 2-8 weeks of enrollment, participants will stay in the clinic for several days. This includes: Blood, urine, heart, and imaging tests For NAFLD participants only: A needle-like device will remove a small biopsy of the liver and fatty tissue. Participants will be alone in a special room for 5 hours. They will breathe through a tube under the nostrils. They will have blood drawn several times. The baseline visit concludes participation for healthy volunteers but NAFLD participants will contine. About 6 weeks after discharge, participants will stay in the clinic again and repeat the tests. They will get their first semaglutide dose by injection. Participants will have visits weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 of treatment. Visits include blood tests. Participants will inject semaglutide once a week at home. At week 30, participants will stay in the clinic again and repeat the tests. Participants will have a final visit 12 weeks after stopping treatment. This includes blood and urine tests. ...
The study was being conducted in order to assess the pharmacokinetics and the safety of elafibranor following once daily administration of two dose levels of elafibranor (80 milligrams [mg] and 120mg) during 3 months in children and adolescent population (8 to 17 years of age) with non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
