Active clinical trials for "Fibrosis"

This study is to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of three types of nucleotide/nucleoside analogues in treatment of hepatitis b virus related compensated cirrhosis.

Acute variceal upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage remains a hot potato in cirrhotic patients. The purpose of this study is to figure out whether urgent endoscopy (within 6h after gastroenterological consultation) is superior to non-urgent endoscopy (between 6h and 24h after gastroenterological consultation) in reducing re-bleeding for these patients. This is a single-centered, prospective, randomized, and controlled trial. 400 patients with suspected variceal bleeding will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive endoscopic intervention either within 6h or 6-24h. Randomization is conducted by permuted block randomization stratified by age, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and pulse rate. The primary efficacy endpoint is rebleeding within 42 days after control of acute variceal bleeding. This trial will provide valuable insights into the efficacy between the urgent endoscopy group and the non-urgent endoscopy group.

This is a phase II pilot study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of danazol for treatment of cytopenias in patients with CPC A/B cirrhosis. Subjects with or without telomere mutations and/or shortened telomeres will be treated with danazol 600 mg per day by mouth for a duration of 24 months. The goal will be to treat a total of 10 patients.

This is a Phase 1/2a randomized, double-blind, two-part, dose-ascending, multicenter study of AR-501 (gallium citrate) solution, administered via inhalation, in healthy adult and P. aeruginosa infected cystic fibrosis (CF) subjects. Phase 1 of the study in HV subjects will consist of a single-ascending-dose (SAD) cohort, followed by the HV multiple-ascending-dose (MAD) cohort. Phase 2a of the study in CF subjects will consist of a MAD study design. The study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of single and repeat administrations of inhaled AR-501 solution in healthy adults, and the safety, PK and efficacy of repeat administrations of inhaled AR-501 solution in P. aeruginosa infected CF subjects.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a lung disease that limits the ability to breathe enough for a good workout. One way to improve the exercise training is to reduce the number of muscles being trained together. By training one leg at a time, the patient does not have to breathe as much allowing each leg a better workout. Our groundwork suggests it may work in patients with IPF. This study will help decide whether one-legged exercise training is better at improving a patient's exercise endurance compared to the usual way of exercising with both legs at the same time.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of ARO-MMP7 in normal healthy volunteers (NHVs) and in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The study will initiate with NHVs receiving single ascending doses of ARO-MMP7. Following evaluation of safety and pharmacodynamic (PD) data, participants will receive multiple doses of ARO-MMP7.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of CHF10067 (the study drug) and any side effects that might be associated with it. In addition, the study will evaluate how much of the study drug gets into the bloodstream and how long the body takes to remove it. The body's immune response to the study drug will also be evaluated. The study may also evaluate the effect of the study drug on the level of a certain protein in the body. Chiesi is conducting this study on people affected by idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF, a lung disease). The reason Chiesi is doing this study is to establish the doses suitable for future studies in subjects

To examine the effect of dasatinib plus quercetin on liver fibrosis in individuals with biopsy proven NAFLD with fibrosis by performing a double-blind randomized controlled proof-of-principle study

This study will determine the effect of oral 80 mg resmetirom administered once daily on participants with well-compensated non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) cirrhosis by measuring the time to experiencing a Composite Clinical Outcome event.

This is a phase I, open label, single arm trial using UC-MSCs to treat patients with liver cirrhosis that includes 20 patients. The primary outcome measure will be change in MELD score at 3, 6, and 12 months after UC-MSC transplantation from baseline. The safety is assessed by frequency and severity of the adverse event or serious adverse event associated with stem cell injection. This study could reconfirm the efficacy of stem cell transplantation for liver cirrhosis and would open a novel cell therapy for the treatment of adult liver cirrhosis.
