Adult Stem Cell Therapy in Liver Insufficiency

Liver Cirrhosis

In order to determine the clinical application potential of adult stem cells we propose to investigate the safety and toxicity of infusing adult stem cells in the hepatic artery or portal vein of five patients with chronic liver insufficiency and to identify any clinical benefit if such occurs. Objectives: To assess safety and treatment related toxicities To determine clinical benefit or deterioration by monitoring changes in liver function

Acute-On-Chronic Liver FailureHepatorenal Syndrome1 more

Acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a distinct entity where, because of severe acute hepatic injury, a rapid loss of liver function develops in a patient with previous chronic liver disease(4). These patients have severe hepatic dysfunction, and outcome is defined by functional hepatic reserve and extent of extra-hepatic organ failures(5). Renal failure is a frequent extra-hepatic organ failure, and its presence is an independent prognostic marker for mortality(12). The pathophysiological basis of renal dysfunction in patients with ACLF is different compared to those with decompensated cirrhosis (DC)(6). Systemic inflammation is the hallmark of ACLF, characterized by a cytokine storm wherein there is an increase in both pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, IL-1β, and IL-10, leading to circulatory dysfunction and organ failure(3). These patients therefore have a higher incidence and progression of acute kidney injury (AKI). Diagnosis of HRS-AKI in ACLF currently requires 48 h of volume repletion with albumin and diuretic withdrawal. Therefore waiting for 48 hours to start treatment with terlipressin can be associated with worsening of AKI stage, worsening of ACLF stage and thereby suboptimal treatment response and high mortality despite treatment response. Therefore early initiation of terlipressin as continuous infusion after volume repletion with IV albumin in ACLF-AKI is safe and prevents AKI progression by splanchnic vasoconstriction and improved renal perfusion.

A Study to Investigate the Effect of Impaired Hepatic Function on the Pharmacokinetics of Entrectinib...

Hepatic Insufficiency

This is a non-randomized, open-label, one treatment, four group, parallel group study to investigate the effect of impaired hepatic function on the pharmacokinetics of entrectinib in participants with different levels of hepatic function. Participants with mild, moderate or severe hepatic impairment ('Mild', 'Moderate' and 'Severe' groups), and control participants with normal hepatic function ('Normal' group) will each receive a single 100 mg dose of entrectinib after consumption of a standardized meal.

Usability and Clinical Effectiveness of an Interpretable Deep Learning Framework for Post-Hepatectomy...

Post-hepatectomy Liver FailureHepatocellular Carcinoma1 more

The goal of this in-silico clinical trial is to learn about the usability and clinical effectiveness of an interpretable deep learning framework (VAE-MLP) using counterfactual explanations and layerwise relevance propagation for prediction of post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The main questions it aims to answer are: To investigate the usability of the VAE-MLP framework for explanation of the deep learning model. To investigate the clinical effectiveness of VAE-MLP framework for prediction of post-hepatectomy liver failure in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. In the usability trial the clinicians and radiologists will be shown the counterfactual explanations and layerwise relevance propagation (LRP) plots to evaluate the usability of the framework. In the clinical trial the clinicians and radiologists will make the prediction under two different conditions: with model explanation and without model explanation with a washout period of at least 14 days to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the explanation framework.

Study of Efficacy and Safety of Grazoprevir (MK-5172) + Elbasvir (MK-8742) in Chronic Hepatitis...

Chronic Hepatitis C

This study is being done to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the drug combination grazoprevir (GZR; MK-5172) + elbasvir (EBR; MK-8742) in participants with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT) 1, 4, or 6 infection and who have cirrhosis and Child-Pugh (CP) score 7-9 moderate hepatic insufficiency (CP-B). The primary hypothesis is that the percentage of HCV-infected participants with hepatic insufficiency (the CP-B population) achieving sustained viral response (SVR) 12 weeks after the end of all treatment (SVR12) will be greater than 60%. Additionally, ten non-cirrhotic (NC) HCV-infected GT1 participants will also be given GZR + EBR at the beginning of the study; this will be done for the purpose of collecting plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) data in HCV GT1-infected participants who do not have hepatic insufficiency.

The Efficacy and Safety of Entecavir Treatment of Patients With Acute on Chronic Hepatitis B Liver...

Liver Failure

To evaluate therapeutic efficacy and predicting factors of entecavir for treating patients with acute on chronic hepatitis B liver failure (ACHBLF). A total of 108 patients with ACHBLF were allocated into either a treatment group (ETV group, n=53) or a control group (n=55). The HBV DNA level, liver function and survival condition of the patients were observed for 48 weeks after enrollment. The factors possibly related to entecavir treatment efficacy were also identified.
