NCT ID NCT05669677
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how people with chronic liver disease (like hepatitis B, C, or fatty liver) respond to COVID-19 vaccines. About 233 adults had three visits over a year to check their immune response and see if they got COVID-19. The goal was to understand if liver disease affects vaccine protection.
