LIVER TRANSPLANTATION

This study tests a device that keeps donor livers cool and oxygenated before transplant, aiming to reduce early liver problems. About 215 first-time liver transplant patients will receive a liver preserved with this method. The goal is to see if it lowers the risk of early graft …

This study looks at whether combining local treatments (like targeted radiation or chemo beads) with newer drugs (anti-VEGF/TKIs and immune checkpoint inhibitors) can shrink liver tumors enough for patients to qualify for a transplant. Researchers will review records of 300 patie…

This study tests whether a home-based exercise program, guided remotely by a physical therapist, can help people who have had a liver transplant. The goal is to see if it improves their ability to exercise, muscle strength, fatigue, and quality of life. The study will involve 58 …

This study will compare two types of liver transplants—auxiliary and living donor—to see which one leads to better survival and fewer complications. Researchers will follow 100 patients over time to track recovery, rejection rates, and other health issues. The goal is to find out…

This study looks at why some liver transplant patients develop dangerously low oxygen levels in their tissues, even when standard vital signs seem okay. Researchers will monitor 60 adults in the ICU for 24 hours after surgery, measuring blood flow, heart function, and oxygen mark…

This large French study will follow 1,810 adults receiving their first liver transplant to see if the way the donor liver is removed affects outcomes. The main focus is on avoiding artery and bile duct complications for three years after transplant. The goal is to identify the be…

This study looks at a simple idea: during a liver transplant, the first blood that flows into the new liver may contain harmful substances. By discarding that blood before connecting the liver to the patient's circulation, doctors hope to reduce heart, kidney, and liver problems.…
