Researchers are evaluating whether the drugs retatrutide and tirzepatide can prevent major adverse liver outcomes (MALO) in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) who are at high risk. This Phase 3 trial enrolls about 4,500 adults with MASLD identified by non-invasive tests indicating an increased likelihood of developing serious liver problems. The study aims to understand how these treatments might affect liver health over time compared to a placebo. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either retatrutide, tirzepatide, or a placebo, all given by subcutaneous injection. The study will last approximately 224 weeks, during which participants may attend 25 to 30 clinic visits for monitoring and assessment. After the main study, eligible participants can join an optional 2-year extension where all will receive either retatrutide or tirzepatide regardless of their original group. Throughout the trial, participants’ liver function and disease progression will be closely monitored through various health assessments. Researchers will track the time to the first major adverse liver event as the main outcome. Safety and health status will be evaluated regularly during clinic visits, ensuring thorough observation over the long study period.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two different dose schedules of pegozafermin compared to a placebo in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) who have liver fibrosis at stage F2 or F3. This phase 3 study focuses on improving liver fibrosis and steatohepatitis in this patient group, which involves chronic liver disease associated with metabolic dysfunction. Participants will receive either pegozafermin or a placebo through subcutaneous injections. The study compares two doses of pegozafermin to assess their impact on liver fibrosis and steatohepatitis. The treatment period lasts up to 52 weeks, with outcomes measured at this time point. During the study, participants will be monitored for improvements in liver fibrosis and resolution of steatohepatitis without worsening fibrosis by week 52. Researchers will also track the time until any disease progression occurs, up to 5 years. Throughout the trial, safety and efficacy will be carefully assessed through clinical evaluations and laboratory tests to ensure participant well-being.

This research focuses on men with prostate cancer who have previously participated in an enzalutamide clinical study sponsored by Astellas or Medivation. It aims to gather long-term safety information from participants who continue to benefit from enzalutamide treatment. This is a Phase 2 open-label extension study designed to monitor ongoing treatment effects after the initial study has completed its primary analysis or evaluation period. Participants will continue their previous treatment regimens, which may include enzalutamide taken orally once daily. Some may also receive abiraterone acetate with prednisone or leuprolide acetate depending on their prior study enrollment. Dose adjustments are allowed with medical monitor approval. The first visit of this study should occur within seven days of the last visit of the prior study unless treatment is temporarily paused. Participants are asked to return to their study site every 24 weeks for safety reviews, including adverse event monitoring and medication checks. At visits every 12 weeks, participants return unused study drugs and receive new supplies if needed. Safety data, including all adverse events and serious adverse events, are collected from consent until study completion, which may last up to 96 months. The study follows local standard care guidelines and includes a post-marketing phase in South Korea.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of pegozafermin in adults aged 18 to 75 years who have compensated cirrhosis caused by metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), previously known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Participants in this phase 3 study must have biopsy-confirmed advanced liver fibrosis (stage F4) due to MASH and meet specific metabolic health criteria. The study aims to understand how well pegozafermin can help improve liver fibrosis and delay disease progression over time. Participants will receive either pegozafermin or a placebo through subcutaneous injections. The study will monitor participants over a long period, up to five years, to observe changes in liver fibrosis and any clinical events related to disease progression. The treatment is given to those with compensated cirrhosis, meaning their liver is damaged but still functioning, and the study carefully evaluates the safety and potential benefits of pegozafermin in this group. Throughout the study, participants will undergo regular assessments to track liver health, including fibrosis regression and timing of disease progression. Researchers will use clinical events and laboratory tests to measure outcomes from the start of the study through 24 months and up to five years. Safety and health will be monitored closely, ensuring any side effects or complications are identified promptly. This comprehensive follow-up helps provide detailed information on the long-term effects of the treatment and participants' liver condition.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a drug called GSK4532990 in adults aged 18 to 70 who have alcohol-related liver disease. This Phase 2 study compares GSK4532990 to a placebo to better understand its impact on this condition, focusing on liver health and related symptoms. Participants will receive either GSK4532990 or a placebo during the study. The treatment is given under double-blind conditions, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know who receives the drug or placebo. The study aims to find the appropriate dose and assess its effect on liver stiffness and disease severity over a period of up to 52 weeks. During the study, participants will be monitored for any side effects or serious health events for up to 8 weeks. Researchers will also track changes in liver stiffness using FibroScan and measure liver disease severity with a specific score at the start and after 52 weeks. Regular checks of vital signs, lab tests, and heart monitoring will be done to ensure safety throughout the study.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of two oral drug combinations, Bemnifosbuvir-Ruzasvir (BEM/RZR) and Sofosbuvir-Velpatasvir (SOF/VEL), in adults with chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. This Phase 3 trial compares these treatments to determine which is better at reducing the virus in the blood. Participants include adults aged 18 to 85 years, including those with compensated liver cirrhosis, and some with controlled HIV-1 infection under specific treatment conditions. Participants will receive either BEM/RZR tablets once daily for 8 weeks if they do not have cirrhosis, or for 12 weeks if they have compensated cirrhosis. Those in the comparison group will take SOF/VEL tablets once daily for 12 weeks. The study is randomized, controlled, and open-label, meaning both participants and researchers know which treatment is given. During the study, researchers will monitor patients to see how many achieve very low levels of HCV RNA in their blood by week 24. The study will include regular medical assessments, safety monitoring, and evaluation of treatment adherence. Participants will be followed from the start of treatment until 24 weeks later to assess outcomes and any side effects.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of survodutide in adults aged 18 years and older who have a confirmed liver condition called non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Eligible participants must have a body mass index (BMI) of 27 kg/m2 or higher, or at least 25 kg/m2 if they are Asian. The study excludes those with other chronic liver diseases or a history of significant alcohol use. The main goal is to see if survodutide can improve liver function and delay progression of liver damage over time. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either survodutide or a placebo, with twice the chance of receiving survodutide. Both treatments are given as weekly injections under the skin using a pre-filled syringe. Alongside treatment, all participants receive regular counseling to encourage healthy diet and exercise habits. The study lasts up to four and a half years, with frequent visits or remote video calls during the first year and five months, then quarterly visits thereafter. During the study, doctors monitor participants' health, including body weight and liver function using imaging tests at certain visits. Participants complete symptom questionnaires to help assess their condition. Researchers track outcomes such as survival, need for liver transplant, worsening liver disease, and liver-related complications. Safety and any side effects are closely watched throughout the study period to understand the treatment's impact.

Researchers are evaluating the effects of survodutide on adults living with obesity who have a liver disease called non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or metabolic associated steatohepatitis (MASH), along with moderate or advanced liver fibrosis. The study focuses on whether survodutide can improve liver function and reduce liver damage in these participants. This Phase III trial aims to assess both the effectiveness and safety of survodutide over a long-term period. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups: one receiving weekly injections of survodutide and the other receiving placebo injections that look like the medicine but contain no active drug. The doses of survodutide are gradually increased until the target dose is reached. All participants receive counseling to support healthy diet changes and regular exercise throughout the study. The study lasts up to 7 years, with frequent visits to the study site or remote video calls. In the first year, visits occur every 2 weeks, then every 4 to 6 weeks, and later every 3 months alternating between in-person and remote. Throughout the study, researchers monitor participants' health, liver condition through imaging and biopsies, body weight, digestive system effects, and questionnaires about symptoms and quality of life. The main outcomes include liver fibrosis improvement, resolution of MASH without worsening fibrosis, and long-term safety and efficacy measures.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of namodenoson in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and Child-Pugh Class B7 cirrhosis whose disease has worsened after at least one prior treatment. This phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial compares namodenoson to placebo in this patient group. The study focuses on overall survival up to 60 months following randomization. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either namodenoson 25 mg or a matching placebo, taken orally twice daily in continuous 28-day cycles. Treatment will continue until disease progression or unacceptable side effects occur. After stopping treatment, patients will have a follow-up visit 28 days later. Those who consent will be followed long-term for survival, including those who discontinue dosing. After the trial's blind is broken, surviving patients still on the study drug may be offered continued open-label namodenoson treatment. During the study, participants will have regular safety assessments and tumor imaging every two cycles to monitor disease status. Researchers will collect survival data and monitor any adverse effects throughout the trial and follow-up periods. The total participation time may extend up to 60 months or longer depending on survival and ongoing follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating the effect of Seladelpar on clinical outcomes in patients with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) who have compensated cirrhosis. This Phase 3 study focuses on adults with PBC and cirrhosis classified as Child-Pugh (CP) score A or B to better understand how Seladelpar may impact the disease course compared to placebo treatment. Participants will be assigned to receive either Seladelpar or a placebo daily for up to 36 months. Those with CP-A cirrhosis will take 10 mg of Seladelpar once daily, while those with CP-B cirrhosis will take 5 mg once daily. The placebo group will take one capsule daily for the same duration. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design ensures that the effects of Seladelpar can be assessed rigorously against a control. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored regularly with scheduled assessments to evaluate their health and response to treatment. Researchers will measure Event Free Survival over 36 months as the primary outcome. Safety and liver function will be closely observed through laboratory tests and clinical evaluations. Participants must comply with study requirements and complete all scheduled visits during the treatment period.
