First seen Apr 16, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests if ambrisentan, a drug already used for lung blood pressure, can help people with hepatorenal syndrome—a serious kidney problem that can happen in advanced liver disease. About 54 adults will get either ambrisentan or the standard treatment terlipressin while in the hospital, and some may continue ambrisentan at home for up to 60 days. The goal is to see if ambrisentan improves kidney function and reduces deaths.
