Efimosfermin alfa for liver scarring in MASH
This study tests an investigational drug called efimosfermin alfa to see if it is safe and tolerable for people who have liver scarring (F2 or F3 stage) from a condition called MASH. The goal is to find out if the drug can help without causing serious side effects.
Arcadia, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT07221227RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug for MASH with moderate scarring
This trial tests a new medicine called Efimosfermin Alfa for people with MASH (a fatty liver disease) and moderate liver scarring. It aims to see if the medicine can improve the liver condition.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18–75 - NCT03151473Recruiting
Study of adults with fatty liver and NASH over time
This is a long-term study that follows adults who are being managed for fatty liver (NAFL) or NASH to learn how these conditions change over time. It may help researchers better understand what to expect and how care decisions could be improved.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT03811236Recruiting
Test cold exposure to activate body fat and reduce liver fat
This study tests whether controlled cold exposure can activate “brown fat” and affect liver fat buildup. It may help people with excess liver fat, measured on imaging, but it has several health and medication exclusions.
ViennaAges 18–50 - NCT04496479RecruitingPhase 2
Transplanting donor liver cells near lymph nodes in advanced liver disease
This Phase 2 study tests whether transplanting donor liver cells near lymph nodes can improve outcomes in people with advanced cirrhosis from certain liver conditions. It may help your liver function by adding healthy liver cells, but eligibility is tightly based on your current liver status and other health factors.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–70 - NCT05178069RecruitingPhase 2
Probiotic supplement study for alcohol use disorder and liver injury
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a probiotic (LGG) can improve health in people with alcohol use disorder and alcohol-related liver injury. It’s not an alcohol treatment study, so participants are mainly joining to see how the supplement affects the body and liver-related outcomes.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 21–65 - NCT05305287RecruitingPhase 4
Study how energy use in the liver works in people with fatty liver and diabetes
This trial measures how your liver cells use energy (mitochondrial function) in people with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver. It aims to better understand what is happening in the liver and how disease severity may relate to diabetes.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT05385237Recruiting
4D MRI scan to spot liver scarring
This study tests whether a special MRI scan (called 4D-MRI) can identify liver scarring or damage. It may help doctors measure liver fibrosis and inflammation without relying only on invasive tests.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic liver disease and cirrhosis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 203 recruiting chronic liver disease and cirrhosis studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a chronic liver disease and cirrhosis trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a chronic liver disease and cirrhosis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
