Active clinical trials for "Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease"

This is a randomized, controlled study evaluating diosmin tablets administered daily for 3 months. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diosmin on non-diabetic patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of GLP-1RA on blood glucose, body weight, glucose and lipid metabolism and fat distribution in overweight/obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The effects of a time-restricted hypocaloric Mediterranean type diet compared to a conventional hypocaloric Mediterranean type diet on blood glucose metabolism and liver steatosis in people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease will be investigated.

The purpose of this study is to learn how well efinopegdutide works compared to placebo in people who have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Researchers will also learn about the safety and benefit of efinopegdutide and how well people tolerate the medicine. The main goal of the study is to compare how many people taking efinopegdutide or placebo stop showing evidence of NASH without liver scarring getting worse.

This is a double-blind, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled, comparative, exploratory phase II dose-finding trial. The trial will be conducted with four treatment groups in the form of a parallel group comparison and will serve to compare oral treatment with daily doses of 20, 50, or 100 mg ZED1227 vs. placebo for the treatment of patients with NAFLD with fibrosis.

A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, Phase 2a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DA 1241 in subjects with presumed non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

In developed counties Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) becomes the most common cause of chronic liver disease , but its prevalence in developing countries like India is also increasing (10 -20%).Till date, there is no US-FDA approved therapy for NAFLD but drugs like metformin, pioglitazone, sitagliptin, vildagliptin Vitamin E, silymarin, statins and ezetimibe have been studied along with life style modification. Life style modifications is the current modality of treatment of NAFLD. All the above-mentioned drugs have some beneficial effects with limited use due to its adverse effects in patients of NAFLD and the study results are non-conclusive. In this scenario, a safe hepatoprotective drug to be evaluated in NAFLD.Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) or 6,8-thioctic acid, is an endogenous molecule which functions as an important co-factor for various enzyme complexes in mitochondria and plays an important role in energy metabolism. ALA is a nutraceutical agent which also has hepatoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects.ALA is a nutraceutic having anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects and also increasing insulin sensitivity with lesser adverse effects. The relative scarcity of a promising therapy and non-conclusiveness of the previous studies open up an arena of further research using a nutraceutic in non-diabetic NAFLD. So, the present study is designed to evaluate safety and efficacy of ALA in non-diabetic NAFLD patients.

To determine the safety and efficacy of low-dose pioglitazone (15 mg per day) on liver histology in in patients with T2DM with biopsy-proven nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether the study drug, atorvastatin (Lipitor®), is safe and effective in improving the features of NASH.

The term non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is used to describe a range of chronic liver diseases that range from steatosis to steatohepatitis, advanced fibrosis, cirrhosis, or excessive alcohol consumption or other causes of steatosis. In this spectrum, Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), which defines liver damage accompanied by steatosis and inflammation (hepatitis), is one of the most common causes of chronic liver disease worldwide, especially in developed and developing countries, and is present in 15-35% of the general population. Individuals diagnosed with NASH primarily experience deterioration in liver functions, but patients are also affected in terms of vascular structures, immunopathological responses, functional and psychosocial conditions. It is seen that in addition to intrahepatic lipid content, inflammatory markers, liver enzymes, and liver functions, cardiopulmonary endurance, physical activity level, and muscle strength are also affected in these patients, so it is evaluated for the diagnosis and planning of the treatment of the disease. There is no drug with proven efficacy in the treatment of the disease. Since a significant proportion of NASH patients have obesity, Type II Diabetes Mellitus or dyslipidemia, the focus of treatment is to control risk factors or protect the liver from harmful factors such as TNFα. Therefore, the mainstay of treatment, for now, seems to be weight control with a lifestyle change, including regular exercise training and diet control. Exercise intervention is considered an essential component of NAFLD treatment, however; there are a limited number of published articles showing the effects of exercise training in the management of NASH. In addition, the physiological effect of exercise has still not been clarified because NASH is accompanied by metabolic problems such as obesity and T2DM. This study, it is aimed to bring innovation to the literature in understanding the physiological effects of exercise for this disease group by examining the effects of resistance exercise training in addition to aerobic exercise on intrahepatic lipid content, liver functions, inflammatory markers, muscle strength, functionality, and biopsychosocial status in individuals with NASH diagnosis who do not have an additional metabolic problem.
