Cirrhosis clinical trials at UCSD
10 in progress, 5 open to eligible people
MGL-3196 (Resmetirom) in Patients With NASH and Fibrosis
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
A double-blind placebo controlled randomized Phase 3 study to determine if 80 or 100 mg of MGL-3196 as compared with placebo resolves NASH and/or reduces fibrosis on liver biopsy and prevents progression to cirrhosis and/or advanced liver disease

Gadolinium Contrast-enhanced Abbreviated MRI (AMRI) vs. Standard Ultrasound for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Surveillance in Patients With Cirrhosis
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
This study compares gadolinium contrast-enhanced Abbreviated MRI (AMRI) to standard ultrasound for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) screening and surveillance in subjects with liver cirrhosis.

Semaglutide Treatment in the Real-world for Fibrosis Due to NAFLD in Obesity and T2DM
open to eligible people ages 40-79
Conduct a community intervention study that will 1) validate a screening approach to identify patients at risk for advanced NAFLD in the obese or T2DM population, and 2) test whether semaglutide treatment is effective for the management of significant fibrosis due to NAFLD in high-risk patients.

Comparative and Additive Diagnostic Performance of Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) and Corrected-T1 (cT1) for Fibrosis and Inflammation in Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) Using Histology as Reference
open to eligible people ages 18-90
This pilot study will evaluate conventional and investigational MR imaging and spectroscopic sequences and collect data to help plan more definitive future studies.
La Jolla, California
Liver Cirrhosis Network Cohort Study
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Liver Cirrhosis Network (LCN) Cohort Study is an observational study designed to identify risk factors and develop prediction models for risk of decompensation in adults with liver cirrhosis. LCN Cohort Study involves multiple institutions and an anticipated 1200 participants. Enrolled participants will have study visits every 6 months (180 days), with opportunities to complete specific visit components via telehealth or remotely. Visits will include collection of questionnaire data and the in-person visits will include questionnaires, physical exams, imaging, and sample collection.

Liver Cirrhosis Network Rosuvastatin Efficacy and Safety for Cirrhosis in the United States
Sorry, not yet accepting patients
This is a double-blind, phase 2 study to evaluate safety and efficacy of rosuvastatin in comparison to placebo after 2 years in patients with compensated cirrhosis.

Metabolic Interventions to Resolve Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) With Fibrosis (MIRNA)
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The study aims to evaluate two, orally administered, investigational agents - PF-06865571 (DGAT2 inhibitor) and the coadministration of PF-06865571 with PF-05221304 (ACC inhibitor). This study is specifically designed to evaluate the effect of a range of doses of DGAT2i alone, and DGAT2i + ACCi, on resolution of NASH or improvement in liver fibrosis, as assessed histologically (via liver biopsy).

BMS-986263 in Adults With Compensated Cirrhosis (Liver Disease) From Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The purpose of this randomized study is to assess safety and effectiveness of BMS-986263 in adults with compensated cirrhosis (chronic liver disease) from nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (fatty liver disease) (NASH).

Belapectin for the Prevention of Esophageal Varices in NASH Cirrhosis
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This seamless, adaptive, two-stage, Phase 2b/3, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, parallel-groups, placebo-controlled study will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of belapectin compared with placebo in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) cirrhosis and clinical signs of portal hypertension but without esophageal varices at baseline.

Semaglutide, and the Fixed-Dose Combination of Cilofexor and Firsocostat, Alone and in Combination, in Adults With Cirrhosis Due to Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
The goals of this clinical study are to learn more about the study drugs, semaglutide (SEMA) with the fixed-dose combination (FDC) of cilofexor/firsocostat (CILO/FIR), and understand whether they cause fibrosis improvement and Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) resolution in participants with cirrhosis due to NASH.
