Kidneys from organ donors who have hepatitis C virus (HCV) are often thrown away, but these kidneys work well, and…
Condition: Transplant
Investigator: Julia Wattacheril, MD, MPH
Status: Closed
The purpose of this research is to study the effects of liver transplantation and standard immunosuppression on body composition in patients with compensated cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Patients with a diagnosis of HCC and cirrhosis who are listed for a liver transplant will be enrolled in this study. If you agree to participate, you will…
Condition: Transplant
Investigator: Elizabeth Verna, MD
Status: Closed
In this study, patients who are listed for a kidney or a liver transplant may be eligible for enrollment, asdetermined by their transplant doctors. The study is looking at patients who do not have hepatitis C virus (HCV) and provide their informed consent to receive a liver or kidney from a HCV positive donor. FDA approved…
Condition: Liver Disease / Cirrhosis of the Liver
Investigator: Robert Brown, MD, MPH
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the drug OCR-002 for the treatment of an acute hepatic encephalopathy episode in cirrhotic patients requiring hospitalization. Subjects who have been recently hospitalized will potentially receive OCR-002 via infusion on top of their standard care for 5 days. Patients will be assessed 24-hours after…
Condition: Transplant / Liver Transplant
Investigator: Robert Brown, MD, MPH
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to see if study drugs ABT-450/r/ABT-267, and ABT-333 taken with RBV are safe and able to reduce the amount of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in subjects' blood over a 24-week treatment period. These drugs are intended to prevent the HCV from multiplying in the human body. Subjects who participate in this…
Condition: Transplant / Liver Transplant
Investigator: Robert Brown, MD, MPH
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to determine if the administration of non-absorbable antibiotics (rifaximin) for the first three months after liver transplant period will reduce the amount of fibrosis (scarring of the liver) in liver transplant patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) by lowering serum LPS (a protein in the blood…
Condition: Liver Disease / Cirrhosis of the Liver
Investigator: Elizabeth Verna, MD
Status: Closed
The Red-C 3131 Study is a phase 3 study is looking to see if a study medicine, rifaximin, can safely delay or prevent HE in adults who have been diagnosed with advanced liver cirrhosis. Adults who have been diagnosed with advanced liver cirrhosis, but who don't yet have HE may be eligible to join. About 466 patients will be enrolled across 200 sites.…
Condition: Liver Disease / Cirrhosis of the Liver
Investigator: Julia Wattacheril, MD, MPH
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether cirrhosis occurs as a result of NASH. NASH is a disease that results when fat accumulates in the liver. GS-6624 is an experimental medication designed to help reverse the scarring process, and the purpose of this study is to see if GS-6624 can reverse the scarring in the liver and heal cirrhosis.
Study for liver transplant recipients using drug (IgG) to prevent Hepatitis C virus (HCV) recurrence
Condition: Transplant / Liver Transplant
Investigator: Elizabeth Verna, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of different doses of HCIG when given to patients with HCV who receive a liver transplant. It will also provide information about whether HCIG can prevent HCV infection. Participation in the study is expected to last about 10 months. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive HCIG or not. Your…
Condition: Transplant / Liver Transplant
Investigator: Elizabeth Verna, MD
Status: Currently Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of siplizumab when used as induction immunosuppression in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis or autoimmune hepatitis undergoing liver transplantation. Induction immunosuppression drugs are very potent anti-rejection drugs that are given immediately after…

Investigator: Elizabeth Verna, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to see if the study drug Harvoni given for 4 weeks immediately after liver transplantation is safe and able to clear the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) from the body. This study will test a drug named Harvoni for the treatment of chronic genotype 1 or 4 Hepatitis C Virus (…
