What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether giving low-dose arginine vasopressin during liver transplant surgery can prevent acute kidney injury, a common complication. Researchers will compare vasopressin to the standard drug norepinephrine in 304 adults. The goal is to see if vasopressin better protects kidney function and reduces the need for dialysis.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Arginine vasopressin (a hormone that raises blood pressure and may protect the kidneys)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could reduce the risk of kidney failure after liver transplants, lowering the need for dialysis and improving long-term outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a single phase 3 trial with 304 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Vasopressin can cause side effects like low sodium or excessive vasoconstriction.
