Active clinical trials for "Liver Cirrhosis, Biliary"

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune chronic liver disease, characterised by destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ducts. sCD163 is a macrophage activation marker shedded into plasma by macrophages in the liver. sMR is a soluble mannose receptor. The investigators want to investigate whether sCD163 and sMR correlate with disease severity in patients with PBC, and whether sCD163 and sMR can predict short term disease progression, changes in quality of life and death in these patients.

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and influence on itching, bile acids and liver enzyme changes in patients with PBC (Primary Biliary Cirrhosis) treated with A4250

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of baricitinib in participants with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) who do not respond or are unable to take ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA).

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of twice-daily (BID) oral CR845 1.0 mg in patients with PBC with moderate-to-severe pruritus. The study includes a 16-week Treatment Period.

Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a serious, life-threatening, bile acid related liver disease of unknown cause. Without treatment, it frequently progresses to liver fibrosis and eventual cirrhosis requiring liver transplantation or resulting in death. The investigational drug, Obeticholic Acid (OCA) is a modified bile acid and FXR agonist that is derived from the primary human bile acid chenodeoxycholic acid. The key mechanisms of action of OCA, including its choleretic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fibrotic properties, underlie its hepatoprotective effects and result in attenuation of injury and improved liver function in a cholestatic liver disease such as PBC. The study will assess the effect of OCA compared to placebo, combined with stable standard care, on clinical outcomes in PBC participants.

BCD-085 is an innovative drug, anti-interleukin-17 monoclonal antibody. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BCD-085 in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).

A prospective, single centre, single-arm, pilot study investigating the safety and efficacy of a 12-week remotely-monitored home-based exercise program in patients with refractory fatigue (based on PBC-40 Quality of Life measure) secondary to Primary Biliary Cirrhosis.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of cilofexor in adults with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).

Auricular neurostimulation is a potential novel and non-invasive method of pain control following liver transplantation in a growing patient population with the probability of significant impact on economics and morbidity. The investigators propose a pilot study to investigate the effects of auricular neurostimulation in patients receiving a liver transplantation. The investigator will investigate the effects of auricular neurostimulation with this novel device and compare it to the current standard of care for pain management following liver transplantation.

This Phase 4, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of OCA treatment in participants with PBC and moderate to severe hepatic impairment over a 48-week treatment period. Participants who have completed their 48-week double blind treatment period will continue double-blind treatment until all randomized participants have completed their 48-week treatment period and the database for that period is locked. An open-label extension study in which all participants receive OCA will be considered following review of blinded safety and PK data.
