NCT ID NCT07652203
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether propranolol, a drug often used for high blood pressure, helps or harms people with advanced cirrhosis (severe liver scarring). The trial will include 466 adults with a MELD score over 9, meaning their liver disease is fairly advanced. Researchers will compare those who take propranolol to those who do not, tracking how long it takes for liver complications to get worse.
