Adverse Outcomes and Mortality in Liver Transplant
Prospective natural history pilot study to explore the link between muscle composition using an MRI-based Muscle Assessment Score (MAsS) and adverse outcomes in liver transplant candidates.
Technology Enabled Strategies to Promote Treatment Adherence in Liver Transplant
Liver transplantation is increasingly performed for older adults with multiple comorbidities. Medication adherence is key to maintaining proper function of the transplanted liver and optimize health; however, adhering to post-transplant treatment is complex. This trial will study how available technology combined with transplant center resources and caregiver support can optimize …
CRISPR-Edited HLA Donor Liver Transplant to Reduce Rejection
This early-phase clinical trial will assess the use of ex vivo CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing on donor liver grafts to reduce immunogenicity before transplantation. Donor livers will have HLA-A and HLA-B genes knocked out, and HLA class II expression disabled (by targeting the CIITA transactivator gene), aiming to create a "hypoimmunogenic" …
LiverPAL: A Trial of Inpatient Palliative Care for Patients With Advanced Liver Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether early integration of palliative care in the care of hospitalized patients with advanced liver disease (AdvLD) can improve patients' quality of life, physical symptoms, mood, and serious illness communication. Palliative care is a medical specialty focused on lessening (or "palliating") …
HepHospital: A Pilot Trial of a Hepatology Home Hospital Intervention for Patients With Advanced Liver Disease
This research study is evaluating a program that entails a healthcare at home intervention for people with advanced liver disease.
Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Safety of Zanzalintinib in Participants With Moderate Hepatic Impairment (HI)
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the plasma PK of zanzalintinib following a single dose in participants with moderate liver dysfunction compared to matched healthy participants with normal liver function.
Late Evening and Early Morning Protein Supplement to Reduce Readmissions for Hepatic Encephalopathy
Readmission rates for patients with hepatic encephalopathy due to end stage liver disease are high. Hyperammonemia contributes significantly to encephalopathy and occurs because of impaired hepatic ureagenesis and increased skeletal muscle proteolysis. We propose a randomized, 6-month nutritional intervention in cirrhotic patients who have had at least 1 admission for …
Efficacy and Safety of Nitazoxanide in Preventing Recurrence of Hepatic Encephalopathy
Efficacy and Safety of Nitazoxanide in preventing recurrence of Hepatic Encephalopathy.
Microbiota, Sarcopenia, and Hepatic Encephalopathy Change in Cirrhotic Patients Before and After Rehabilitation
Through this plan, it will provide many benefits to patients with liver cirrhosis complicated with sarcopenia and/or hepatic encephalopathy, their family members, and the government in Taiwan To explore the changes of fecal microbiota before and after treatment such as resistance training rehabilitation in patients with liver cirrhosis complicated with …
Hepatic Encephalopathy Prevention With Polydextrose After TIPS: Pilot Study (POEME)
TIPS is a standard for the treatment of portal hypertension related complications. However, it remains at risk of HE after TIPS (around 40% the first year). Dysbiosis plays a key role in pathophysiology of HE. Polydextrose (PDX) is consider as a prebiotic. Preliminary studies showed that PDX: modified gut microbiota, …
