Prescreening Study to Identify Potential Wilson Disease Participants for Gene-Editing Clinical Trial
The aim of this study is to inform and improve future clinical trials in Wilson Disease (WD) by better understanding how patients with WD are living with and managing the disease, and by identifying key factors that shape their decisions to participate in clinical research.
Off Treatment Urinary Copper Excretion in Wilson Disease, Pilot Study
This is a prospective study that will determine the optimal timing for 24-hour urinary copper excretion (UCE) measurement after temporary discontinuation of standard therapies in Wilson Disease (WD) patients. The primary objective is to assess whether off-treatment UCE (OT-UCE) correlates with non-ceruloplasmin-bound copper (NCC) levels, aiming to validate OT-UCE as …
Circadian Variation of Urinary Copper Excretion in Wilson Disease Patients
Wilson's disease (WD) is a genetic disorder characterized by an accumulation of copper in the body, mainly in the liver and brain. Patients suffering from this disease are monitored by liver function tests, blood copper levels, and 24-hour urinary copper determinations. Treatment is based either on chelating the copper accumulated …
Evaluation of Miricorilant on Liver Fat in Patients With MASLD
A Phase 1, Open-Label Study Evaluating the Effect of Miricorilant on Hepatic Lipids in Patients with Presumed Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH)
EUS-guided Portal Pressure Gradient (PPG) Measurement: a Potential Alternative to the Traditional HVPG
The goal of this investigator-initiated, single-arm, prospective study is to evaluate the accuracy, safety, and feasibility of endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient (EUS-PPG) measurement as a potential alternative to the traditional hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) method in patients with portal hypertension due to chronic liver disease. The main questions …
Effect of a GnRH Analog on Hepatic Steatosis
Menopause increases the risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), possibly owing to the abrupt lack of estrogen. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) treatment in endometriosis is regarded as a model of pharmaceutical menopause. Thus, the effect of goserelin acetate, a GnRH analog that results in transient menopause, on hepatic steatosis …
Evaluation of a New Ultrasound System for the Non-invasive Assessment of Liver Steatosis in MASLD/MASH Patients
The objective of the study is to evaluate an ultraportable ultrasound device, Hepatoscope, for the non-invasive assessment of hepatic steatosis in patients with metabolic-dysfunction associated liver diseases (MASLD), by comparing its measurements with current diagnostic modalities, such as MRI-PDFF.
Periinterventional Coagulation Management of Patients Undergoing a TIPS
Assess whether a pre-interventional thrombelastography guided algorithm for assessing and correction of coagulation status in cirrhotic patients is safe and effective
Instructed Home-based Physical Exercise for Patients With Liver Cirrhosis
The study will compare two forms of advice regarding physical activity for patients hospitalized with cirrhosis that are preparing for leaving the hospital. One arm consists of current standard of care: simple oral advice on exercise. One arm instead gives patients a structured but simple paper template on physical activity.
Coagulation in Cirrhosis
Out of fear of bleeding, liver cirrhosis patients are often treated prophylactically with blood and coagulation products before minor interventions. The COUCH study will examine whether these patients benefit from a restrictive administration of coagulation products.
