329 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is open to adults with liver cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B, hepatitis C or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). People can join this study if they have high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat (BI 685509) taken alone or in combination with a medicine called empagliflozin helps people with this condition. Participants take Avenciguat (BI 685509) as tablets twice a day for 8 weeks. Half of the participants with NASH who also have type 2 diabetes take empagliflozin as tablets once a day in addition to Avenciguat (BI 685509). Participants are in the study for about 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 10 times. At 2 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in a liver vein to see whether the treatment works. This is done with a catheter (a long thin tube) and gives information about the pressure in the portal vein. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Protandim on the degree of liver injury after one year of supplementation. Protandim is a nutritional supplement composed of the following 5 botanical extracts: Bacopa Moniera extract, Milk Thistle extract, Ashwagandha powder, Green tea, and Turmeric extract. Protandim is commercially available and can be purchased without a prescription. Our findings could lead to a better understanding of the role of oxidative stress and antioxidant therapy in NASH and may ultimately help improve patient care. Hypothesis #1: Protandim will lead to a significant improvement in NAS compared to placebo. Hypothesis #2: Protandim will lead to a significant decrease in serum markers of oxidative stress and liver chemistry tests. Hypothesis #3: Protandim will lead to decreased levels of TNF- α compared to placebo.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of S-adenosylmethionine therapy in those patients with non-alcoholic liver disease in the form of steatohepatitis (NASH). This will be accomplished by development of a database of these patients, all of whom will have biopsy documented NASH. A placebo controlled trial will then examine the effect of S-adenosylmethionine over time on clinical outcome in these patients. It is expected that this agent will slow or halt the progression of this disease.
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a common liver disease that resembles alcoholic hepatitis but occurs in persons who drink little or no alcohol. The etiology of NASH is unclear, but it is commonly associated with diabetes, obesity, and insulin resistance. Several pilot studies, including a study of pioglitazone at the NIH Clinical Center (01-DK-0130), have shown that the insulin-sensitizing thiazolidinediones lead to decreases in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels and improved liver histology. Once therapy is stopped, however, ALT levels rapidly return to pre-treatment values. Inaddition we are currently enrolling patients with NASH in a pilot study of metformin therapy for 48-weeks, however our results in 3 patients thus far have not been very encouraging. In the current study, patients who have completed the pilot study of pioglitazone and have been off therapy for 48 weeks will be offered re-treatment for 3 years. We also propose to treat patients who have not had a satisfactory response to metformin with pioglitazone for the same duration. After a repeat medical and metabolic evaluation and liver biopsy, patients with moderate-to-severe NASH (activity score greater than or equal to 4) will restart pioglitazone at a dose of 15 mg daily. If after 48 weeks, ALT levels are not normal or improved to the degree identified during the pilot study, the dose will be increased to 30 mg daily at the end of 3 years, all patients will undergo repeat medical and metabolic evaluation and liver biopsy. The primary end point will be improvement in liver histology. Secondary end points will be improvements in insulin sensitivity, reduction in visceral fat, liver volume, and liver biochemistry. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether long-term pioglitazone therapy can safely achieve and maintain biochemical and histological improvements in NASH. ...
This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have * presumed or confirmed NASH together with overweight or obesity and * a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or more, or * a BMI of 27 kg/m² and at least one weight-related health problem. People with a history of other chronic liver diseases cannot take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called survodutide helps people living with obesity or overweight and a confirmed or presumed liver disease called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) to have less liver fat and to lose weight. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. 1 group gets different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but does not contain any medicine. Every participant has a 2 in 3 chance of getting survodutide. Participants and doctors do not know who is in which group. Participants inject survodutide or placebo under their skin once a week for about 1 year. In addition to the study medicine, all participants receive counselling to make changes to their diet and to exercise regularly. Participants are in the study for about 1 year and 3 months. During this time, it is planned that participants visit the study site up to 14 times and receive 3 phone calls by the site staff. The doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. The participants' body weight is regularly measured. At 3 of the visits, the participants' liver is measured using different imaging methods. The results are compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works.
Purpose of this study is to assess the effects of pemvidutide on NASH resolution and NASH fibrosis.
This is a phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel group study of 3 dose levels of HU6 in subjects with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Six months (26 weeks) of dosing is planned, and subjects will be followed for safety, efficacy, pharmacodynamics (PD), and pharmacokinetics (PK) during this time. The end-of-study visit will take place approximately 4 weeks after the last dose of the study drug (Week 30).
The purpose of this study is to learn how well efinopegdutide works compared to placebo in people who have non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Researchers will also learn about the safety and benefit of efinopegdutide and how well people tolerate the medicine. The main goal of the study is to compare how many people taking efinopegdutide or placebo stop showing evidence of NASH without liver scarring getting worse.
A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of AZD2693 given by subcutaneous injection in adult participants with non-cirrhotic non-alcoholic steatohepatitis with fibrosis and who are carriers of the PNPLA3 148M Risk Allele

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cotadutide in participants with non-cirrhotic NASH with fibrosis.
This study is being done to see if a combination of 2 medicines (called NNC0194-0499 and semaglutide) can reduce liver damage in patients with non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NNC0194-0499 is a new medicine which works in the liver. Semaglutide is a well-known medicine, which is already used by doctors to treat type 2 diabetes in many countries. It also helps with weight loss and may reduce liver damage, and so prevent future liver complications. It works in a different way to NNC0194 0499. The 2 medicines may work better together than on their own. The study will also look at a combination of semaglutide and another weight-loss medicine called NNC0174-0833, which may be another treatment option for NASH. Each week, participants will get 2 injections. These could be 2 of the 3 medicines OR 1 of the medicines and a placebo OR 2 placebo injections. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. A placebo is a dummy medicine which looks like the real medicine but doesn't contain any active medicine. The study will last for about 19 months. Participants will have 14 clinic visits and 9 phone calls with the study doctor. Participants will have 1 or 2 liver biopsies (tiny pieces of liver tissue) - one at the start (if participants have not had a biopsy recently) and one at the end of the study treatment. Women: Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or planning to become pregnant during the study period.

This is a Phase 1b multi-center, randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, placebo-controlled, adaptive study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) of TERN-201 in patients with non-cirrhotic NASH.
Semaglutide is a medicine studied in patients with NASH. Semaglutide is a well-known medicine, which is already used by doctors to treat type 2 diabetes in many countries. Participants will either get semaglutide or a dummy medicine - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to inject themselves with medicine under the skin. Participants will need to do this once a week. The study will last for about 5 years. Participants will have up to 21 clinic visits and 9 phone calls with the clinical staff during the study. Some of the clinic visits may be spread over more than one day. Participants with other chronic liver diseases cannot take part in this study. Women cannot take part in the study if they are pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
This study is open for men and women with a liver disease called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 456906 helps patients with NASH and liver fibrosis. The study tests 3 different doses of BI 456906 to find the dose that helps best. Participants are put into 4 groups randomly, which means by chance. There are 3 groups that each receive a different dose of BI 456906 and there is 1 group that receives placebo. BI 456906 and placebo are given as an injection under the skin once per week. The placebo injection looks like the BI 456906 injection but does not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for a little over 1 year (60 weeks). During this time, they visit the study site several times and have some video calls in addition. At the visits, the study doctors take different measurements. To see whether the treatment works, the doctors take a very small sample of liver tissue (biopsy) from each participant at the start and at the end of the study. They also examine the liver by ultrasound and MRI. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
