Pioglitazone and empagliflozin for fatty liver in type 2 diabetes
This trial tests two diabetes pills (pioglitazone and empagliflozin) to see if they can reduce liver fat in people with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease. It may help if your diabetes is not well controlled and you have a fatty liver confirmed by a special ultrasound scan.
Seongnam-siAges 20 years+ - NCT06567990Recruiting
Type 2 diabetes and fatty liver: new tests for disease tracking
This study is looking for people with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease to find better ways to track how the disease progresses. They will use special tests (biomarkers) to see if the liver is getting worse over time.
DijonAges 40–80 - NCT07600788RecruitingPhase 1
Liver Function and Safety Study of AHB-137 Injection
This study tests how a new investigational drug called AHB-137 moves through your body and affects safety in people with mild-to-moderate liver problems compared to people with normal liver function. The goal is to understand if the drug works safely in people whose livers don't work as well as they should.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT05525507RecruitingPhase 1
Test early immune-tolerance treatment for matched kidney transplant patients
This Phase 1 study tests a treatment plan given after a kidney transplant to help the immune system stay calm and reduce the risk of rejection. Participants must have a well-functioning kidney transplant from a closely matched living donor and meet health and safety requirements.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07124078RecruitingPhase 2
Study of axatilimab for young people with chronic graft-versus-host disease
This study tests a new drug called axatilimab for children and teens with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) that hasn't improved with standard treatments. The goal is to see if axatilimab works better than the usual care options. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either axatilimab or one of several standard treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 2–17 - NCT05905172RecruitingPhase 3
Hydronidone for long-term treatment of hepatitis B scarring
This Phase 3 study tests whether hydronidone capsules can help people with long-term hepatitis B–related liver scarring (fibrosis). It aims to track whether treatment reduces or delays serious liver complications over time.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT07552727Recruiting
Exercise program for fatty liver disease
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help reduce fat buildup in the liver for people with overweight or obesity and related conditions like insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if regular physical activity improves liver health without medication.
Valdivia, Los Ríos RegionAges 18–59 - NCT06777914Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic liver disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 388 recruiting chronic liver disease 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 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 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.
