Study of Oral Idebenone to Treat Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis

Non Alcoholic Steatohepatitis

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled phase 1/2a study to investigate the safety and tolerability of Idebenone in patients 18 years of age or older with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, with stage 1-3 fibrosis. As secondary end point target engagement and fibrosis improvement will be assessed.

Efficacy and Safety of Tocovid Suprabio 200mg in Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver (NAFL)

Hepatic SteatosisNAFLD

Palm-derived tocotrienols have shown hepatoprotective effects in both animal and human studies. This study aims to investigate the effects of tocotrienols in hepatocellular lipid content using MRI. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of diseases ranging from simple fatty liver (steatosis, NAFL) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) to cirrhosis. NASH is the accumulation of fat in liver cells accompanied with inflammation that can lead to the scarring of the liver. Prevention of liver fibrosis by early introduction of low risk interventions such as lifestyle modification, diet control and nutraceuticals may help circumvent long-term healthcare costs associated with management of chronic NASH.

Nutritional Intervention IN Nash NON-ALCOHOLIC (NAFLD).

SteatohepatitisNonalcoholic3 more

The goal of this randomized clinical trial with adults is to discuss the effectiveness of the nutritionist's educational interventions in users diagnosed with NAFLD, compared to the usual medical follow-up of users treated at the Hepatic Steatosis Ambulatory of the Complexo Hospital de Clinicas of the Federal University of Paraná (CHCUFPR) in adults diagnosed with liver disease. The sample will consist of patients routinely monitored at the Hepatic Steatosis outpatient clinic diagnosed with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Patients allocated in the study will be randomized 1:1 and followed up for one (1) year, intervention group (IG) with nutritionist consultations, nutritional diagnosis and educational intervention with agreement on individual goals. Patients in the Control Group (CG) will maintain the usual outpatient care. Participants will have clinical, anthropometric and sociodemographic data collected and food consumption data will be carried out during the nutrition consultations, as well as the application of the NLS-Br Nutritional Literacy questionnaire to verify literacy. During the nutrition consultation, a 24-hour recall will be carried out to collect information on food consumption. They will also be carried out as monthly telephone contacts or messages via instant messaging application, to solve the doubts of the participants and notify them of upcoming meetings, and subsequent comparison of the LN in the target population. All interventions will be recorded in specific instruments for this purpose. Researchers will compare intervention group (IG) and Control Group (CG) and to see the effects of nutritional intervention. The expected primary outcome will be weight loss of 5% to 10% of the initial weight and the secondary outcomes will be: reduction in abdominal circumference and body mass index, and improvement in the levels of liver transaminases. Data will be analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics.

Metformin for Ectopic Fat Deposition and Metabolic Markers in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Polycystic Ovary SyndromeNon-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease1 more

This project, "A double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial assessing the efficacy of metformin for hepatic fat in adolescents and young adults with polycystic ovary syndrome", proposes exploring the use of novel and noninvasive methodologies in an at-risk adolescent and young adult population with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who may gain long-term health benefits from early detection and treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). PCOS is a common condition that frequently presents in adolescence and young adulthood and is defined by elevated androgens (male hormones) in the blood leading to 1. hirsutism and acne and 2. menstrual abnormalities or amenorrhea. Affected individuals are at increased risk of developing insulin resistance (a precursor of diabetes), NAFLD and lipid (cholesterol) abnormalities.These features are all associated with the metabolic syndrome, a rising major public health concern. Recently, an association between PCOS and NAFLD has been noted but has only been superficially studied in the adolescent and young adult population. The susceptibility of certain PCOS patients to developing NAFLD is theorized to be due to having underlying insulin resistance, elevated androgen levels, and a genetic predisposition. Metformin is an insulin sensitizing medication widely used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus that may have beneficial effects on insulin resistance-related conditions including PCOS and NAFLD. Although widely used in PCOS, its effect on NAFLD in this group has not been previously studied. The primary aims of this proposal are: 1) To determine whether PCOS with liver fat >/=4.8% treated with metformin for six months will have a decline in percentage liver fat compared to a placebo group. 2) To measure the association of the PNPLA3 I148M allele with NAFLD in PCOS at baseline (n=40). 2b) To measure the association of percentage liver fat with biomarkers of NAFLD, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance and body composition at baseline (n=40) and after a placebo-controlled intervention with metformin in PCOS with liver fat >4.8% (n=20). The goal of this research proposal is to explore the use of novel and noninvasive technologies in a young and at risk population. Dr. Sopher hopes to use the results of this research to lay the groundwork for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD and other metabolic disorders in adolescents and young adults with PCOS and to prevent lifelong morbidity associated with PCOS.

Randomized Clinical Trial; Medical vs Bariatric Surgery for Adolescents (13-16 y) With Severe Obesity...

ObesityDiabetes3 more

Severe childhood obesity is associated with both immediate and chronic health problems and a severe impact on psychosocial development. Medical and behavioural interventions rarely result in the significant, durable weight loss necessary to improve health outcomes. This is a randomised clinical trial where 50 adolescents, 13-16 years of age, will be randomised to either early bariatric surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass) or intense conservative treatment and possibly surgery after two years of non-surgical treatment or as they have become 18 years.
