Active clinical trials for "Liver Diseases"

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of oxaliplatin in treating patients who have advanced cancer plus liver dysfunction.

Drugs used in chemotherapy us different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Irinotecan may be effective in treating patients with refractory solid tumors and liver dysfunction.

This is a study of experimental medication BMS-986036 given to healthy participants.

This is a multi-center, open-label study to assess the PK of single 100 mg oral dose of enasidenib (CC-90007) in subjects with moderate and severe hepatic impairment, and in matched healthy control subjects with normal hepatic function. Degrees of hepatic impairment will be determined during screening by the subject's score according to Pugh's Modification of Child's Classification of Severity of Liver Disease

The purpose of this study is to investigate BMS-986165 in participants with different levels of liver function.

Background: Infection with hepatitis D virus leads to a chronic liver disease with no effective treatment. Lonafarnib has improved hepatitis D virus levels in blood, but the medication still needs more research. Ritonavir makes other drugs more effective and is used with lonafarnib to make it more effective. Lambda interferon stimulates the body s response to viruses. Researchers want to see if combining these drugs fights hepatitis D and helps the liver. Objectives: To see if combining lonafarnib, ritonavir, and lambda interferon is safe and effective to treat chronic hepatitis D infection. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with chronic hepatitis D infection Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam, medical history, and blood and urine tests. Throughout the study, all participants will: Follow rules for medicine, food, and contraception Take hepatitis B medicine Have weight checked Have routine blood and urine tests Give stool samples Female participants will have pregnancy tests. Participants will have 3 visits before treatment. They will repeat screening tests and have a heart test and liver scan. Participants will have a 5-day inpatient stay. They will: Baseline blood and urine tests Have eye tests Answer health questions Have a liver sample taken and liver blood pressure measured. Participants will be sedated. Have reproductive tests Start the study drugs and have blood draws Over 24 weeks of treatment, participants will: -Take 2 study drugs by mouth every day and 1 as a weekly injection

This D-LIFT (Effect of dulaglutide on Liver Fat) trial is an investigator initiated, prospective, open label, randomized clinical study to examine the effect of dulaglutide 0.75 mg subcutaneously weekly for 4 weeks, followed by 1.5 mg weekly for 20 weeks when included in the standard treatment for type 2 diabetes vs. standard treatment for type 2 diabetes (minus dulaglutide) in patients with type 2 diabetes and NAFLD. Hepatic steatosis (intracellular fat accumulation in hepatocytes) will be measured by MRI-PDFF, a validated quantitative biomarker for liver fat. The study will be conducted according to the CONSORT guidelines. The patient population for the trial will be derived from Medanta-The Medicity Hospital endocrine out-patient clinic, who would primarily visit for management of type 2 diabetes and other co-morbidities. The study will be conducted in Medanta-The Medicity Hospital, Gurugram, Haryana, which is a tertiary care center in North India. Patients deemed eligible will be screened for the trial. The clinical trial protocol will be presented for approval to the institutional ethics review board. Informed written consent will be obtained from all the participants before enrolment into the study.

Investigation of efficacy and safety of three dose levels of subcutaneous semaglutide once daily versus placebo in subjects with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

Further studies are needed to establish the optimal diet for treating T2D. The investigators wishes to investigate whether a low carbohydrate diet, high in monounsaturated fats (LCD) will affect cardiovascular function, metabolism and the liver. 135 participants with T2D, will be following either a LCD, or a regular diabetes diet (RDD) for 6 months. Measurements and investigations will be performed at baseline and after 6 months.

This is a Phase Ib, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending-dose study of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), and pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of BFKB8488A in participants with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and participants with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD). A maximum of approximately 160 participants will be enrolled across multiple sites in the United States. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive study drug (active BFKB8488A or placebo). The study will consist of a screening period (up to 8 weeks), a 12-week treatment period, and a 6-week follow-up period. Participants may come to clinic for an optional pre-screening visit.
