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

Lobeglitazone is highly selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonist that decreases insulin resistance in the periphery and liver resulting in increased insulin-dependent glucose disposal and decreased hepatic glucose output. In vivo, It demonstrates that Lobeglitazone improves even more glycemic and lipid control in comparison to rosiglitazone and pioglitazone. Currently, thiazolidinediones such as pioglitazone is the only drug which is considered as an effective therapeutic agent for improving non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NALFD) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). The aim of this multicenter, prospective, open-labeled, single-arm, exploratory phase 4 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Lobeglitazone once daily for 24 weeks on intrahepatic fat contents assessed by transient elastography (fibroscan) in T2D with NAFLD. Fifty subjects with T2D and NAFLD will take Lobeglitazone (0.5mg/tablet, orally, 1 tablet once daily) for 24 weeks. Primary endpoint is changes from baseline in controlled attenuation parameters (CAP) measured by transient elastography (fibroscan) after treatment with Lobeglitazone. Secondary endpoints are changes from baseline in glycemic profiles (HbA1c, Glycated albumin), Lipid parameters (Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL-C, LDL-C), Liver function parameters (AST, ALT, r-GT), and adverse events during the trial.

The primary objective of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) for GR-MD-02 when administered intravenously to subjects with biopsy-proven NASH with advanced liver fibrosis.

To explore whether there is a different response to omega-3 fatty acid rich diet with respect to the hepatic fat fraction % (HFF), triglyceride, and ALT levels between the rs738409 minor allele (GG) and the common allele homozygous (CC) of PNPLA3. Hypothesis: We expect that subjects homozygous for the minor allele of the rs73049 SNP will lower their triglyceride, hepatic fat content, and ALT levels more with dietary intervention than the common allele homozygous supplementation.

Bariatric-metabolic surgery is effective in treating the cluster of conditions forming the metabolic syndrome, strictly associated with NAFLD and NASH. Recently, we and other authors have shown also in the long term (up 5 years) with randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) that bariatric-metabolic surgery allows remission of type 2 diabetes and obesity reduction, which are the two major pathogenetic factors of NASH development, with maintenance of weight loss. Few small and mainly retrospective studies have shown that bariatric surgery is effective in improving NASH histologic picture in obese subjects. The aim of our proposal is to conduct a 3 arm single centre, superiority, RCT comparing Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) and with Intensive Lifestyle Modifications (ILM) for the treatment of Non-Alcoholic Steato-Hepatitis.

The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a combination treatment of tropifexor (LJN452) and cenicriviroc (CVC) in adult patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis.

This was a 24-week single-center, open-label, parallel controlled group comparing gliclazide, liraglutide, and metformin effects on diabetes with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of curcumin supplement on metabolic factors and hepatic fibrosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver patients with type 2 diabetes. Subjects will participate in 3 month, two group, randomized intervention, where one group (n=25) will take 1.5g/d curcumin and the other group (n=25) will take a placebo to compare differences in outcomes between the two groups.

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of firsocostat in adults with normal hepatic function, and mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment and to evaluate the single-dose PK of fenofibrate in adults with normal hepatic function and mild hepatic impairment.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of hepatic impairment on the systemic exposure of tropifexor and to evaluate the safety of tropifexor in subjects with hepatic impairment. The results of this study will support treatment and dosing decisions for patients with varying degrees of hepatic impairment.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study to evaluate the safety, including tolerability, of ISIS 703802 and to assess the efficacy of different doses and dosing regimens of ISIS 703802 on glucose and lipid metabolism, and liver fat in participants with hypertriglyceridemia, Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
