This trial tests whether a medicine called emapalumab, which calms a specific part of the immune system, can prevent liver failure in children aged 1 year and older with severe hepatitis that hasn't improved with steroids. The study includes a screening group to observe all sever…

This study tests whether adding the drug NTZ to standard care can help people with liver cirrhosis who experience a sudden worsening (acute decompensation) or have developed acute-on-chronic liver failure. The trial enrolls adults with cirrhosis from any cause who have had a rece…

This study compares two methods of preserving livers from deceased donors before transplant: a machine that pumps oxygenated cold fluid through the liver (hypothermic machine perfusion) versus the standard ice-cooled storage. Forty adult liver transplant patients will be randomly…

This study tests a treatment for adults with acute-on-chronic liver failure, a sudden worsening of long-term liver disease. The approach combines blood filtering (hemoadsorption) with half-dose plasma exchange to support the liver until recovery or transplant. About 240 participa…

This study looks at whether giving vitamin C through a vein can help very sick patients with liver failure and severe infections recover from kidney injury. About 110 patients will get either standard care alone or standard care plus vitamin C. The goal is to see if vitamin C hel…

This study tests a blood purification device called DPMAS for people with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), a life-threatening condition. About 56 adults will be randomly assigned to standard medical care alone or standard care plus DPMAS. The goal is to see if DPMAS improve…

This study investigates how a single dose of the drug ulonivirine is processed by the body in people with mild or moderate liver impairment compared to healthy volunteers. Researchers measure drug levels in the blood over time to see if liver function affects how the drug is brok…

This early-stage study will give a single dose of MDR-001, a GLP-1 receptor agonist tablet, to 32 people: some with mild or moderate liver impairment and some with healthy livers. Researchers want to see how the drug moves through the body and if it is safe in people with liver i…

This study looks at how the drug anaprazole sodium is processed by the body and whether it is safe for people with liver or kidney issues, as well as for older adults. About 60 participants will be enrolled to measure drug levels and track any side effects. The goal is to underst…
