The goal of this study is to evaluate the role of transcription factor EB (TFEB) in adipose (fat) tissue macrophages (ATM) in regulating adipose tissue and systemic metabolic function in obesity. The investigators will assess the differences in ATM lipid metabolism in people with metabolically abnormal obesity and lean individuals. …
This is an open label phase 1b trial of QX1206 in patients with T2DM and with NAFLD. Laboratory tests and other measurements will be assessed prior to the first dose of study treatment and throughout the study to determine the recommended phase 2 dose. In addition, the preliminary effects of …
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), or fat-related liver inflammation and scarring is projected to be the leading cause of cirrhosis in the United States (U.S.) within the next few years. Women are at disproportionate risk for NASH, with approximately 15 million U.S. women affected. There is an urgent need to understand risk …
The purpose of this study is to establish retrospectively a nationwide registry of patients who have suffered drug-induced liver injury (DILI), and to collect, immortalize, and store serum, DNA, and lymphocytes from these patients. ILIAD will serve as a resource for subsequent mechanistic investigations into the basis of severe idiosyncratic …
This 2-part study will evaluate PHIN-214 given as a single one-time dose (Part 1) and in multiple doses (given as daily doses for 28-days) (in Part 2). Specifically, this study evaluates PHIN-214, to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic effects of PHIN-214, and to establish the maximum tolerated dose or …
A total of 407 hospitalized patients with acute liver injury in Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University were enrolled. The clinical information, biochemical examination, imageological examination (ultrasound, CT, MRI) and liver biopsy pathology of patients with acute liver injury will be collected. The diagnostic efficacy of RECAM and …
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) can lead to potentially fatal complications, such as acute liver failure and even death. In clinical practice, glucocorticoids have been considered in some cases of DILI, especially patients with hyperbilirubinemia. However, the available evidence remains controversial and its quality is also very limited. Herein, a multicenter …
Multicentric prospective and observational study to assess the 5-year overall survival in a cohort of patients with unresectable liver-only colorectal metastases, well controlled by chemotherapy prior to liver transplantation.
The goal of this study is to create a data registry to capture clinical, pathologic, and molecular data/outcomes for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who undergo live donor liver transplantation.
The researchers want to learn how androgens, a type of sex hormone, might affect nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD) in young women over time. NAFLD happens when fat builds up in the liver which can cause damage to the liver such as inflammation or scarring. Young women with a condition called …
