Elimination of Albumin-Bound Substances by MARS and Prometheus

Liver Failure

This trial compares the efficacy of two artificial liver support systems, MARS (Molecular Adsorbents Recirculating System) and Prometheus (FPSA, Fractionated Plasma Separation and Adsorption), in removing albumin-bound substances such as bilirubin, bile acids, and cytokines.

Acute on Chronic Hepatic Failure

50 patients of Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) will be enrolled and randomized into G-CSF+EPO or Placebo arms Treatment protocol To administer G-CSF (in prefilled syringe) at a dose of 5 µg/kg s/c at days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and then every 3rd day till day 28 (total 12 doses), along with Darbopoetin alpha 100 mcg/ week (in prefilled syringe) for 4 weeks (total 4 doses). Standard medical therapy included as per requirement lactulose, bowel wash, albumin, terlipressin, antibiotics (if indicated) will be continued and recorded. Pentoxiphylline in alcoholic hepatitis and Tenofovir in Hep B reactivation Controls: Standard medical therapy will be given along with placebo in similar prefilled syringes. Follow up Physical examination will be done daily, after 1 week and at 4 weeks, at 2 months, at 3 months and at 6 months CBC on alternate day for 1 week, at end of 1 week and then at end of 4 weeks , at 2 months, at 3 months and at 6 months KFT on alternate day for 1 week, at end of 1 week and then at end of 4 weeks, at 2 months, at 3 months and at 6 months LFT along with PT/INR on alternate day for 1 week, at end of 1 week and then at end of 4 weeks, at 2 months, at 3 months and at 6 months AFP at baseline, after 4 weeks, at 3 months and at 6 months Liver regenerative potential efficacy testing at baseline and after 4 weeks

High Volume Plasma Exchange in Children With Acute Liver Failure and Acute on Chronic Liver Failure...

Acute Liver Failure

All the children with acute liver failure who are candidates for transplant but have constraints for transplant will be randomized either to receive standard medical therapy or high volume plasma exchange along with standard medical therapy with the aim to assess the effect of high volume plasma exchange on transplant free survival.

Albumin Infusion in Inpatients With Decompensated Cirrhosis

Decompensated CirrhosisAcute-On-Chronic Liver Failure

Albumin infusion in patients with hospitalized decompensated, even in short-term period use, could improve survival through the reduction of systemic inflammation, which is the main driver of acute-on-chronic liver failure in cirrhosis. The effects could be highly associated with the albumin dosage. A comprehensive evaluation of the inflammation response by robust measurement is needed to prove insights into the therapeutic implications of albumin infusion. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of different amount of human albumin infusion per week in patients with hospitalized decompensated cirrhosis on 28-day transplant-free survival and to further compare the alleviation of inflammation, reduction of incidence of nosocomial infection, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), acute kidney injury (AKI), acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), and 90-day transplant-free survival. This will be a multicenter, national, retrospective study. There will be no randomization in this retrospective study. All patients who meet the inclusion criteria and not the exclusion criteria will be enrolled. All identified patients who meet criteria will be given an ID number comprised of a site number and patient number.

To Study the Role of Plasma Von Willebrand Factor Antigen (vWF) to A Disintegrin-like and Metalloproteinase...

Acute on Chronic Liver Failure

Acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a syndrome characterized by acute decompensation of chronic liver disease associated with organ failures and high short- term mortality. Development of systemic inflammation and subsequent organ failures determines is associate with poor outcome and short-term mortality. Previous studies have shown that endothelial injury leading to increase in levels of and exhaustion of its cleaving protein a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 (ADAMTS 13) which promotes the platelet microthrombi formation and subsequent organ ischemia. We propose that the vWF : ADAMTS 13 ratio can be predict the organ failure development and subsequent mortality in ACLF patients, which is considered to be a inflammatory state.

Acute on Chronic Liver Failure

Continous infusion of nor adrenaline + albumin Continous infusion of terlipressin + albumin Response will assessed at every 48 hour (i) Complete response: Regression of acute kidney injury stage with reduction of S. Cr within 0.3 mg/dl of baseline (ii) Partial response: Regression of acute kidney injury stage with reduction of S. Cr to ≥0.3 mg/dl above baseline (iii) No response: No regression of acute kidney injury Treatment will be extended until reversal of HRS (decrease in creatinine below 1.5 mg/dL) or for a maximum of 7 days after rescue treatment will be followed. If intolerant to terlipressin, excluded from study and rescue treatment will be given in form of noradrenaline or octreotide and midodrine.
