Active clinical trials for "Liver Cirrhosis"

In this study, the investigators compared the improvement of and azygoportal disconnection related indicators in patients with liver cirrhosis after laparoscopic splenectomy. To determine whether surgical treatment can help enhance postoperative immune function and improve patient prognosis.

Conduct a community intervention study that will 1) validate a screening approach to identify patients at risk for advanced NAFLD in the obese or T2DM population, and 2) test whether semaglutide treatment is effective for the management of significant fibrosis due to NAFLD in high-risk patients.

A phase 2b, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of HTD1801 in adult subjects with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis who have type 2 diabetes mellitus or pre-diabetes.

This is a double-blind, phase 2 study to evaluate safety and efficacy of rosuvastatin in comparison to placebo after 2 years in patients with compensated cirrhosis.

Study to test the effect of the drug "L-ornithine.L-aspertate" (LOLA) on microorganisms in the digestive tract in patients with liver cirrhosis (damage of the liver due to liver disease)

Chronic physical conditions are defined as conditions that require ongoing management and treatment over extended periods of time. Chronic physical conditions are not only leading causes of death and disability in North America but they are commonly associated with mental distress and reduced quality of life. Online mind-body wellness programming ranging from physical activity to mindfulness interventions has been shown to be effective in improving mental wellness in a variety of chronic disease populations, but there is a need to evaluate scalable ways to deliver these programs. Building upon a previously developed online wellness program for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), the research team has developed a mind-body wellness program for adults ≥18 years of age living with different chronic conditions (e.g., cirrhosis, PBC, heart failure). The 12-week program will be delivered online, and include follow- along mindful movement, breathwork and meditation routines, and a psychology based coping skills program. In a three-armed randomized controlled trial, the study will assess the impact on the primary outcome of anxiety and depression as measured through the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). At the beginning and the end of the 12-week research study, participants will complete surveys to assess secondary/exploratory outcome measures including quality of life, fatigue, frailty, demoralization, and healthcare usage. After the program, the research team will conduct interviews with participants to allow them to share their other feedback about the program. The researchers will also send surveys to the participants eight weeks after the program ends to assess longer- term impacts on primary and secondary outcomes.

This study will assess the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of a structured prehabilitation program combining exercise training, nutritional optimization and psychological support for patients with cirrhosis awaiting liver transplantation.

Decompensated cirrhosis has a high overall mortality rate. There is a large unmet need for safe and alternative therapeutic potions. This clinical trial is to inspect the efficiency and safety of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy for decompensated cirrhosis.

A Phase 1, Open-label Extension Groups Study in Subjects having Hepatic Impairment with Cirrhosis due to Cholestatic Liver Disease

Design a randomized trial to compare the effect of endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection obliteration versus non-selective beta-blocker in the primary prevention of gastric variceal bleeding.
