REpurposing SirolimUS in Compensated Advanced Chronic Liver Disease. The RESUS Proof of Concept...

Advanced Chronic Liver Disease

Background: Advanced liver scarring leads to liver failure, liver cancer and premature death. It mainly affects people in the working age group (18-65 years) and is the only major cause of death that is still increasing every year in the UK. It costs the NHS £2.1 billion a year. This will continue to rise due to increasing alcohol misuse and the obesity crisis. Advanced liver scarring remains incurable as there is no treatment to slow progression of scarring. Sirolimus is a medication that has been used to prevent rejection after organ transplantation for over 20 years. It reduces liver scarring, improves liver functioning and prolongs life in animals. It has also been shown to reduce liver scarring in patients after liver transplantation. Sirolimus, therefore offers a potential treatment option for liver scarring. Question and Objectives: If used in patients with advanced liver scarring, can sirolimus slow the progression of scarring? The main objective is to undertake a small-scale study (proof of concept) to investigate if sirolimus could slow the progression of scarring in patients with advanced liver scarring using clinically relevant biomarkers, which will see if the liver responds to treatment. How it will be done: The study will be conducted in Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust. 45 patients with advanced liver scarring will be randomly given either sirolimus or placebo tablets daily for 6 months. Participants will have a liver biopsy and a MRI scan at the start and end of the study to measure the change in the biomarkers of liver scarring. A reduction in these markers will indicate successful treatment. Participants will be monitored for safety of the drug. Potential Impact: If found efficacious, sirolimus would provide an acceptable treatment for patients with advanced liver scarring and would also save a substantial sum of money for the NHS.

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseType 2 Diabetes2 more

This is a phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel group study of 3 dose levels of HU6 in obese subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) at risk of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Six months (26 weeks) of dosing is planned, and subjects will be followed for safety, efficacy, pharmacodynamics (PD), and pharmacokinetics (PK) during this time. The end-of-study visit will take place approximately 4 weeks after the last dose of the study drug (Week 30).

RESTORE Declined Livers Study

Liver DiseasesSurgery2 more

This is a prospective, non-randomized, clinical trial of discarded liver transplants that have received normothermic machine perfusion (NMP), compared with standard cold preservation liver transplants. The discarded livers rejected by all other centers and meeting pre-NMP eligibility criteria will receive NMP using the OrganOx® metra device. The NMP-treated liver that meets the viability criteria will be transplanted to patients who are eligible and consented to the study. Liver transplant outcomes will be ascertained during 12 months post-transplantation. The results of the trial will be compared with those of contemporary comparison groups of patients who received the standard criteria donor liver transplantation.

Effects of VLCKD in Metabolic Syndrome

Diabetes MellitusType 23 more

VLCKD has showed to be an impactful diet on several metabolism aspects and has proven to be useful for preventing and treating diabetes mellitus type 2, overweight, chronic inflammation and fatty liver. For this reason, the aim of this pilot study is to examinate the potential effect of a VLCKD on a group of patients that contemporarily have DM2, obesity and Non alcholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), comparing the results with an ipocaloric diet based on Mediterranean Principles and Italian LARN (SINU 2014). This study will consider several interrelated outcomes such as anthropometric data, hematochemical and hormonal parameters, questionnaires, stool microbiota and omics, blood microvescicles, urine tests, instrumental tests (DXA, BIVA, ecographies), biopses and functional tests. 40 subjects will be evaluated and divided in two groups of 20 (VLCKD) and 20 (MedDiet).
