Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

This disease is believed to be due to immune cells, cells which normally protect the body, but are now destroying the bile ducts in the liver. When the ducts are damaged, bile builds up in the liver and damages liver tissue. Over time, the disease can cause cirrhosis and may make the liver stop working. This study is designed to examine whether treating patients with high dose Cyclophosphamide and Fludarabine (drugs which reduce the function of your immune system) and CAMPATH-1H (a protein that kills the immune cells that are thought to be causing PBC), followed by return of blood stem cells that have been previously collected from patient brother or sister will stop or reverse the disease. The purpose of the Cyclophosphamide, Fludarabine and CAMPATH-1H is to decrease immune system. The purpose of the stem cell infusion is to restore blood production, which will be severely impaired by the Cyclophosphamide, Fludarabine and CAMPATH-1H, and to produce a normal immune system that will no longer attack the body.

High-protein High-fiber Diet in Patients With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Primary biliary cirrhosis is a chronic cholestatic autoimmune liver disease with a progressive course that can lead to liver cirrhosis. There are few studies on dietary management in primary biliary cirrhosis and most of them have focused on micronutrients specifically vitamin D intake to prevent osteoporosis, and lipid control to prevent hyperlipidemia, but few recommendations have been made regarding a complete dietary approach. Fiber has been proven to increase the excretion of nitrogen products and consequently reduce its blood levels, and an adequate protein intake (1- 1.5 g per kg) has shown to decrease endogenous catabolism in cirrhotic patients. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a high-protein, high-fiber diet in the nutritional status of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis.

Effect of Obeticholic Acid on Transport of Bile Acids in PBC Examined by 11C-cholyl-sarcosine PET/CT...

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

This is an investigator-initiated, double-blind crossover study on the mechanism of OCA treatment of patients with PBC. Hypothesis and significance The investigators will test the hypothesis that OCA administration to patients with PBC increases hepatobiliary secretion of cholylsarcosine assessed by PET/CT using 11C-labeled cholylsarcosine (11C-CSar) as tracer. The results of this research project will elucidate the mechanism of the effect of using OCA therapeutically in patients with PBC.

A Randomised Clinical Trial Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of Mycophenolate Mofetil Versus Azathioprine...

Autoimmune HepatitisPrimary Biliary Cirrhosis

Current standard therapy of primary biliary cholangitis-autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome(PBC-AIH overlap) consists of a combination of prednisolone and azathioprine. However, a significant proportion of patients may do not respond to, or is intolerant for azathioprine. Several studies have documented the efficacy and safety of mycophenolate mofetil(MMF) as second-line therapy for PBC-AIH overlap. However, robust evidence from a formal randomized clinical trial for the first-line immunosuppressor is in need.
