NCT ID NCT07647978

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to create a score that predicts the risk of infection within 30 days after a liver transplant. Researchers will collect blood samples from 279 liver transplant patients before and after surgery to measure immune markers. The goal is to combine these markers with other clinical factors to better identify high-risk patients and potentially improve outcomes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a tool that helps doctors identify patients at high risk of infection after liver transplant, allowing earlier intervention.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study that does not test a new treatment. The predictive score may not be accurate enough for routine use, and results may not apply to all transplant centers.
