Active clinical trials for "Fatty Liver"

A Phase 2 study with 4 treatment groups of two differing doses and matched placebos designed to evaluate the safety (including hepatic safety), tolerability and pharmacodynamic effects of two dose levels of MEDI0382 in obese subjects with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)/non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The subjects will have biopsy-confirmed NAFLD/NASH with liver fibrosis stage F1, F2 or F3. Approximately 72 subjects will be randomized

Multicenter, open-label, safety and tolerability study of ascending doses of HepaStem in patients with cirrhotic and pre-cirrhotic non-alcoholic steato-hepatitis (NASH) to determine the safety and tolerability of ascending single and repeated doses of HepaStem administered to patients with cirrhotic and pre-cirrhotic non-alcoholic steato-hepatitis (NASH)

Semaglutide is a medicine studied in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), as it may improve liver damage. Participants will either get semaglutide or placebo (a dummy medicine) - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. The study will last for about 61 weeks in total. Participants will have 10 clinic visits and 3 phone calls with the study doctor or staff during the study. Some of the clinic visits may be spread over more days. Participants will need to inject themselves with medicine under the skin. Participants will have to do this once a week for 48 weeks. The study includes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the liver, 1 or 2 liver tissue samples, ultrasound scans of the stomach and a possible examination of the food pipe. For some tests participants may need to remove some items of clothing. Participants will stop in the study if the doctor thinks that there are any risks for their health. The information collected from participants during the study may help them and other patients with NASH in the future. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study period.

The Sponsor is developing the test medicine, cotadutide, for the potential treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) with chronic kidney disease. This healthy volunteer study will try to identify how two different concentrations of cotadutide are taken up by the body when dosed under the skin (subcutaneous injection). The study will also try to identify the absolute bioavailability of cotadutide (amount taken up by the body when dosed under the skin compared to an injection directly into the vein (intravenous)). This is a single-part, three-period study taking place at one non-NHS site in the UK and will involve 12 male and female (non-pregnant/non-lactating) volunteers aged 18-55. For each study period, on Day 1 volunteers will receive cotadutide as either a subcutaneous injection (into the stomach) or an intravenous injection following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours. The subcutaneous injections will be given as either a 1 mg/ml or 5 mg/ml concentration. The intravenous injection will be given as a 0.1 mg/ml concentration. Volunteers will be discharged on Day 4 and there will be a washout period of 7 days between dosing. Blood samples will be taken at regular intervals for pharmacokinetics and safety assessments from Day -1 to discharge. Volunteers will need to return for a follow up visit 28 (±2) days post-first dose for provisional of an anti-drug antibody sample and to ensure wellbeing

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 causes high morbidity and mortality worldwide. SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is currently the most effective means of reducing morbidity, severe illness and mortality risk. This study aimed to establish a metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) cohort of sequential booster SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, and to identify the dynamic changes of immune response induced by sequential booster SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in MAFLD population. To investigate the effects of blood routine, liver function biochemistry and coagulation function at 28 days, 57 days and 180 days after inoculation of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Obesity is closely associated with an increased risk of cardiomyopathy because of the high metabolic activity of excessive fat while effective treatment of obesity-related cardiomyopathy is currently unsolved. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2-i) are a class of diabetic medications. Besides improving glucose control, SGLT2-i has been shown to be able to reduce the bodyweight as well as the mortality and hospitalization rates for heart failure and cardiovascular disease in the type 2 diabetes patients. It has been proposed that the heart protection by SGLT2-i might be caused by modulating the production of adipokine and cytokine. The investigators will enrolled 40 patients (diabetes mellitus with BMI>27 Kg/m2) from obesity weight-reduction clinics: 1) 20 patients treated with SGLT2-i (CANA) and regular weight-reduction plan; 2) 20 patients with regular weight reduction plan, without CANA, for 4 weeks. The investigators will compare the variation of Fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) related proteins and RNA between these 2 groups of subjects. The investigators will arrange cardiac ultrasound, hepatic MRI and fibroscan, body composition dual energy x-ray absorptiometry to evaluate the possible mechanisms underlying the liver and heart modification process, as a scientific basis for precision medicine in the future. Conclusions: SGLT2-i treatment may increase the concentration of FGF21, either in the liver or heart, thus to protect the high-fat diet induced obesity associated heart dysfunction by activating FGF21 downstream protein expression.

This phase 2a study is a multi-center, double-blind randomized, placebo-controlled study. The study is designed to determine the safety and tolerability of the anti-human CCL24 monoclonal antibody CM-101 in adult patients with non-cirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients with stage 1c, 2 or 3 fibrosis. The patients will be randomized to 1 of 2 treatment groups: 5 mg/kg CM-101 or placebo.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of lyophilized Cornus mas L. fruit powder with/without diet therapy on biochemical parameters and anthropometric measurements in patients with metabolic associated fatty liver disease.

This is a Phase 2a Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Orally Administered TERN-501 as Monotherapy as well as in Combination with TERN-101 in Noncirrhotic Adults with Presumed Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)

This study will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of two dose levels of IMM-124E in reducing liver fat and/or serum alanine aminotransaminase (ALT) compared with placebo.
