New hope to shield kidneys in High-Risk liver transplants

NCT ID NCT04592744

Summary

This study is testing if a drug called angiotensin 2, given during liver transplant surgery, can prevent kidney injury afterward. It will involve about 30 adults with severe liver disease who are receiving a transplant. Half will get the study drug along with standard medications during surgery, and half will get standard care alone, to see if it makes a difference in kidney health.
