Active clinical trials for "Liver Diseases"

The goal of this clinical study is to compare the therapeutic effect of Dulaglutide and Empagliflozin in patients with Diabetes Mellitus type 2 and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. The main question it aims to answer is: Is there a beneficial effect regarding liver steatosis in patients receiving either of these 2 medications and which is more effective? Patients will undergo shearwave elastography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasound. Furthermore, calculation of the Fatty Liver Index (FLI), the Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB-4), as well as the Aspartate Aminotransferase to Platelet ratio Index (APRI) and the NAFLD Fibrosis Score (NFS) will be performed. Researchers will compare 3 groups: Group 1 will receive oral Empagliflozin, as add-on to their previous treatment regimen, for 52 weeks. Group 2 will receive subcutaneous Dulaglutide, as add-on to their previous treatment regimen, for 52 weeks. Group 3 will receive other optimal antidiabetic treatment (apart from agents of the GLP1-ras or SGLT2-is families) for 52 weeks.

Modern living and physical inactivity results in many ailments, including obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and inflammatory issues. Though there are a lot of studies on physical training, there is little detail on hybrid training or electrical and voluntary contractions of the musculature. This study investigated the efficiency of hybrid training in biochemistry, ultrasound, and proinflammatory outcomes in middle-aged sedentary and obese women with NAFLD.

The PROP UP research study is funded by The Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). PROP UP is a multi-centered prospective observational study that will evaluate all-oral treatment regimens for chronic hepatitis C viral (HCV) infection regarding several patient-reported outcomes (PROs) such as HCV-associated symptoms, treatment side effects, medication adherence, out of pocket costs, comorbid conditions, and long-term benefits of cure and harms of treatment to compare PROs of different treatment regimens, treatment durations, and patient subgroups. Participants will be recruited from 9 U.S. liver centers. Approximately 1920 patients with HCV infection who are prescribed a regimen containing Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir(SOF/LED), SOF/Velpatasvir(SOF/VEL), Grazoprevir/Elbasvir(GRZ/ELB), OBV/PTV/r + DSV (PRoD), or daclatasvir/SOF (DAC/SOF) will be recruited and approximately 1600 patients who are approved and begin HCV treatment will be enrolled in the longitudinal study. PRO surveys will be evaluated before, during and after HCV treatment. PROP UP is a collaborative effort between behavioral and biomedical researchers, a patient engagement group and a patient advocacy organization.

The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of 10μg/0.5ml Recombinant Hepatitis B Vaccines(Saccharomyces Cerevisiae) in the Healthy Neonates.

This post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of azathioprine tablets in Japanese subjects whom liver transplantation is performed.

This post-marketing surveillance study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of azathioprine tablets in subjects whom lung transplantation is performed.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether ultrasound or CT scanning is more effective at detecting early liver cancer in patients with advanced liver disease.

Background: - Hepatitis B and hepatitis C can cause liver damage. They can also cause serious illness, including liver cancer, and even death. This study will follow people who have hepatitis B or hepatitis C. The purpose is to understand more about how these viruses affect the immune system over the long term (up to 10 years). The study will also compare how these viruses affect people who do and do not have HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Objectives: To do a long-term study of hepatitis B and hepatitis C infection. To study the effects of hepatitis B and hepatitis C infection in people do and do not have HIV. Eligibility: - People at least 18 years of age who have hepatitis B or hepatitis C and have a regular doctor for their medical care. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Those who do not have a regular doctor to provide medical care during the study will not be able to take part. Participants will have yearly visits with study researchers for up to 10 years. These tests will be done at each visit. Medical history and physical exam. Questionnaire (optional) on emotions, sexual behaviors, use of alcohol and drugs, and quality of life. Blood and urine tests, including HIV testing. Tissue sample collections for those who have had a liver or other tissue biopsy. Participants may leave the study at any time. They will receive the standard of care from their regular doctor throughout the study.

The objective of this study is to conduct a population pharmacokinetic analysis of caspofungin in a population of patients with moderate and severe acute alcoholic hepatitis or liver disease with Child-Pugh score B and C in order to better characterize pharmacokinetic parameters in case of moderate and severe liver dysfunction.
