Active clinical trials for "Fatty Liver"

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in up to 104 patients with a diagnosis of NAFLD and/or NASH. The study will be conducted over a period of up to 22 weeks and will include an optional Prescreening, Screening (Days -35 to -7) Phase, a 16-week Treatment Phase following randomization on Day 1. Patients will be randomly assigned in a ratio of 1:1:1:1 to receive Saroglitazar Magnesium 1mg or 2 mg or 4 mg or matching placebo once daily in the morning before breakfast for 16 Weeks. The primary endpoint of the study is percentage change from baseline in serum ALT levels at Week 16 in the Saroglitazar Magnesium groups as compared to the placebo group.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of coffee main constituents (caffeine and chlorogenic acid) supplements on inflammatory, metabolic factors, hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in none- alcoholic fatty liver patients with type 2 diabetes. Two hundred patients with fatty liver and type 2 diabetes will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: group 1, caffeine (200 mg/d) plus chlorogenic acid (200 mg/d); group 2, caffeine (200 mg/d) plus placebo; group 3, chlorogenic acid (200 mg/d) plus placebo; group 4, placebo plus placebo. Supplementation will be daily and will supervise for 6 months.

The purpose of this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study is to assess the safety and efficacy of orally administered Epeleuton capsules versus placebo in the treatment of adult patients with Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects and safety of a dietary supplement, Zataria multiflora Boiss (Shirazi's Thyme) in the treatment of non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

This Study purpose to verify change of variety factors that the cause of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and its process through salsalate injection to osteoarthritis patient who has non alcoholic fatty liver

To evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of two dose levels of JKB-121 (5 mg twice daily and 10 mg twice daily) in reducing liver fat and/or liver biochemistry compared to placebo in patients with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of NGM282 in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of solithromycin on hepatic histology and biomarkers in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

One-third of the US population has non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) due to obesity and ~8 million of these individuals have a progressive form of the disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Currently, there are no noninvasive ways to determine which individuals with NAFLD will develop NASH. This is of medical importance since NASH can be a prelude to the development of end-stage liver disease. The study of NAFLD has been limited by several factors, including the difficulties associated with studying liver metabolism in vivo in humans. Our group has pioneered new methods that use nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to measure intermediary hepatic metabolism in humans with a goal of directly studying the pathophysiology of bland steatosis and NASH. In this study, these noninvasive methods will be used to characterize and compare the metabolic alterations that accompany bland steatosis and NASH and test the hypothesis that detects if hepatic mitochondrial metabolism contribute to both disorders. Such characterization is fundamental to establishing a rational approach to the prevention and treatment of NAFLD and may provide simple, non-invasive methods to differentiate benign and progressive forms of NAFLD. This proposal will be addressed via separate isotopic studies occurring at different time points during a prolonged fast. In subjects with NAFLD, these studies will be carried out before and after treatment with Vitamin E or placebo. Healthy subjects will participate in initial baseline studies only without Vitamin E or placebo intervention. The study is designed to harness the physiologic changes that occur with short- and long-term fasting to provide a rapid and cost-effective method to accomplish the aims of the application.

L-carnitine is an amino acid that is naturally produced in the liver and kidneys, it is involved in transporting fatty acids across the mitochondrial membrane, it could be an important component in treating a fatty liver disease. The investigators conduct a study to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of L-Carnitine and Magnesium as a treatment for fatty liver.
