NCT01167088
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a new medicine, called mitoquinone, will reduce raised liver enzymes due to NAFLD and to see if it is safe.
NCT01359462
For hepatic cirrhosis subjects with ascites or lower extremities, to study Pharmacokinetics, pharmacology, and safety of the drug under fasting condition.
NCT01350726
The aims of this study were divided into three parts: 1. To develop a new software to carry out the functional-three- dimensional-reconstruction of the liver by 99mTc-GSA-SPECT scintigraphy 2. To probe a new dynamic model of the metabolism of the 99mTc-GSA. 3. To evaluate the liver function by 99mTc-GSA-SPECT scintigraphy before surgical treatment. Study design: 1. Collectivity type: Prospective,randomized, controlled, multi-central clinical study. 2. Patients: The subjects were from different hospitals including: Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH). Study arrangement: This study was consisted of three parts:
NCT01335568
This clinical investigation of the hepatocyte matrix implant is an evaluation blinded non-randomized and monocentric pilot study of Phase I, which is conducted as a therapeutic investigation. Randomization is not possible due to ethical and practical reasons. This study has already been approved in Switzerland and has been adapted to Indonesian Law and disease. This new treatment procedure has already been successfully used on the basis of compassionate use in Germany. The hepatocyte matrix implant is a new patented procedure consisting of bio-matrix technology. A formaldehyde-free special matrix consisting of self-dissolving polymers is applied as a carrier substance and is cultivated with human autologous cells using a special technique. Clinically the bio artificial liver replacement tissue for patients with end-stage hepatic disease has been developed as a first application. In this procedure autologous hepatocytic tissue and pancreatic tissue is removed (liver resection and pancreatic biopsy) from the patient in a first surgical procedure. The tissue is sent to a specialized Cell Culture Laboratory. The laboratory is GMP certified for this procedure. The cells are processed according to SOPs in a special perfusion procedure and prepared on several platelets of matrices (platelets of 20 mm diameter and 4mm thickness). After completion of the laboratory process the bio tissues are implanted into the mesentery of the small intestine during a second operation. The cells are growing controlled on the matrix, take on the capillaries of the patient and thus connect to the blood circulation. The implanted cells multiply by a specific factor and independently take over the metabolic function of the original liver after two to four weeks. In the following process the carrier matrix dissolves completely and implanted cells develop into liver cell tissue.
