Active clinical trials for "Liver Diseases"

The investigators conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the effects of Fermented Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis powder on Alcohol-induced Liver Disease in adults for 8 weeks.

This Phase 2a clinical trial is a dose escalation study of the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of hepatocyte transplantation into lymph nodes via endoscopic ultrasound among subjects with end-stage liver disease.

Lifestyle changes aiming at weight loss remain the cornerstone of MAFLD treatment.Evaluating the motivational stage of patients' change and providing targeted lifestyle guidance may significantly improve the efficiency of weight loss. The investigators hypothesize that gut microbiota may affect motivation to lose weight, and the changes in gut microbiota due to weight loss may positively feedback the behavior of motivation, forming a virtuous circle. Thus, this study aims at ①evaluating the relationships between motivational stage of weight loss and the gut microbiota (Gut-brain axis); ②investigating the effects of lifestyle interventions on the gut microbiota in MAFLD patients.

The primary purpose of this study is to compare the plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of belzutifan (MK-6482) following a single oral 80 mg dose of belzutifan in participants with moderate hepatic impairment to that of healthy matched control participants. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single oral 80 mg dose of belzutifan in participants with moderate hepatic impairment.

NAFLD is a growing threat to public health. Currently, there is a significant need for highly effective treatments for NAFLD. Non-obese NAFLD (BMI<30kg/m2) is an increasingly recognized condition, sometimes described as "lean NAFLD". Intermittent Fasting (IF) may be uniquely beneficial in non-obese NAFLD. The purpose of this study is to identify non-pharmacologic, lifestyle-based methods of NAFLD treatment within non-obese adults.

The aim of the current study is to evaluate the safety and efficay of cilostazol in treatment of patients with fatty liver disease. Several previous reports have shown that cilostazol ameliorates lipid imbalances in NAFLD. Cilostazol appeared to exert beneficial effects against NAFLD

A Phase 1, Open-label Extension Groups Study in Subjects having Hepatic Impairment with Cirrhosis due to Cholestatic Liver Disease

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused pandemic since outbreak in 2020.Patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) are at higher risk of mortality and morbidity due to COVID-19. Despite there is a large number of clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccines, only a few participants with chronic liver diseases were included.

The purpose of the trial is to compare the effectiveness and safety of 2 treatment regimens of CAM2029 (given weekly or every 2 weeks) to placebo in participants with symptomatic PLD, either isolated as in autosomal dominant PLD (ADPLD) or associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). In the Treatment Period of the trial, participants will be allocated at random to 1 of the 3 treatment arms in a 1:1:1 ratio. After completing the Treatment Period (53 weeks) participants may proceed to a 24-week open-label extension part of the trial and then only receive the same CAM2029 treatment. The active ingredient in CAM2029, octreotide, is administered as a subcutaneous depot using Camurus' FluidCrystal® technology.

Several diets have been proposed to reduce liver steatosis in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and various effects on liver steatosis have been observed. The objective of this trial is to compare the effects of intermittent calorie restriction (ICR) (5:2 diet) and standard-of-care (SoC) on reduction of hepatic steatosis.
