Safety and Efficacy of the ELAD System (ELAD) to Treat Acute Liver Failure (ALF)
Acute Liver FailureFulminant Hepatic Failure2 moreThis phase 2 study is developed to evaluate the effect of ELAD on overall survival (OS) in subjects with acute liver failure (ALF) compared to matched historical controls.
Allogeneic ABCB5-positive Stem Cells for Treatment of Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure
Acute-On-Chronic Liver FailureThis is an interventional, single arm, multicenter, phase I/IIa clinical trial. The study objective is to investigate the efficacy and safety of three i.v. doses of the investigational medicinal product (IMP) allo-APZ2-ACLF for the treatment of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). The allogeneic IMP allo-APZ2-ACLF contains skin-derived ABCB5-positive mesenchymal stem cells isolated from skin tissue of healthy donors and stored in a donor cell bank.
Single-Dose Pharmacokinetics of MK-3866 in Participants With Hepatic Impairment (MK-3866-006)
Hepatic InsufficiencyAntibacterial AgentsThis is an open-label, single-dose, Phase 1 study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of intravenous (IV) MK-3866 in participants with moderate and severe hepatic impairment (HI) compared to that of matched healthy participants. The primary purpose of this study is to understand the effect of HI on the plasma PK of MK-3866 in order to guide dosing recommendations for participants with HI. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK-3866 in participants with moderate and severe HI.
To Study the Influence of GCSF on Natural History of Acute On Chronic Liver Failure After the Acute...
Acute on Chronic Liver FailureAll consecutive ACLF (Acute on Chronic Liver failure) patients presenting to the institute of liver and biliary sciences, irrespective of the etiology , who have survived the acute phase (i.e. 90 days of onset of the acute on chronic liver failure) and who are willing to participate in the study would be enrolled. After performing baseline biochemical tests, patients will undergo transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB), HVPG (Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient), Circulating CD34 cells, Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy (Histopathological and immunohistochemical examination will be done).
Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study of IDN-6556 in ACLF
Acute on Chronic Hepatic FailureAcute Liver Failure2 moreThe study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and preliminary efficacy of IDN-6556 in subjects with cirrhosis of the liver who are hospitalized for more than 24 hours due to acute deterioration of liver function.
Robotic vs. Laparoscopic vs. Open Living Donor Hepatectomy
End Stage Liver DiseaseAcute Liver Failure2 moreThis will be a study to examine the outcomes of open, laparoscopic, and robotic Living Donor Liver Transplantation (LDLT) procedures. The analysis will encompass 3,448 cases (1,724 donor-recipient pairs) from January 2011 to March 2023, documenting the transition between these surgical techniques, with a noted crossover in 2018.
Intravenous Milk Thistle (Silibinin-Legalon) for Hepatic Failure Induced by Amatoxin/Amanita Mushroom...
Amatoxin PoisoningAmanita Poisoning2 moreLegalon® SIL will be administered to patients with amatoxin poisoning diagnosed by history, gastrointestinal symptoms, elevated liver enzymes, and/or diagnostic assay (should one become available). Patients may or may not also demonstrate abnormalities in bilirubin and/or creatinine. Treatment consists of a 5 mg/kg loading dose followed by 20 mg/kg/day via continuous infusion. The treating physician is expected to administer supportive therapy of his/her choosing but consistent with best practices. Legalon® SIL will be stopped when coagulopathy is no longer present, and when liver function tests have returned significantly towards the normal range. Patients will be followed 7-14 days after the end of Legalon® SIL therapy with follow up lab studies.
Study of N-Acetylcysteine in Acute Liver Failure (ALF)
Acute Liver FailureFulminant Hepatic FailureThis proposed study is a multi-center open label study to determine if N-acetylcysteine has any survival benefits in patients with acute liver failure.
TRimetazidine for acUte on Chronic Liver Failure STudy
Acute-On-Chronic Liver FailureThe study will assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), tolerability, and safety of oral trimetazidine administered to subjects with AD (ACLF Grade 0) or with ACLF Grade 1 or 2.
Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) to Treat Acute-on-chronic Liver Failure
Acute-On-Chronic Liver FailureMulticentre, open, randomised, and controlled trial conducted in patients diagnosed with acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria.The objective of GRAFT-trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of subcutaneously administered granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in patients with ACLF. All patients will receive standard medical care for ACLF according to the guidelines. Patients in the experimental arm additional receive subcutaneous injections of G-CSF.
