Hvidovre, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07291141Recruiting
MRI vs. Ultrasound for Liver Cancer Detection in Cirrhosis
This study compares MRI and ultrasound to see which is better at finding liver cancer early in people with liver cirrhosis. It also looks at body composition and other factors that could lead to worsening liver function.
Linköping, Select A State Or ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT07271576Recruiting
Phycocyanin study for liver fibrosis and cirrhosis
This trial tests if phycocyanin (a natural blue pigment from spirulina) can help protect the liver and slow damage from fibrosis or cirrhosis. It may be an option if you have stable liver disease and are looking for supportive therapy.
HangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT07151885Recruiting
Using ultrasound and blood tests to predict varices risk in cirrhosis
This trial tests if a special ultrasound technique combined with liver stiffness and platelet count can predict which patients with cirrhosis have high-risk varices in the esophagus or stomach, potentially reducing the need for repeated endoscopy.
Changchun, JilinAges 18 years+ - NCT07116096Recruiting
Handgrip strength and blood flow in liver cirrhosis
This study measures how handgrip strength relates to blood flow in the portal vein (the main vein to the liver) in people with liver cirrhosis. It aims to find simple ways to check liver health.
Luoyang, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07122700Recruiting
Better tests for fatty liver disease in people with metabolic issues
This study compares new, non-invasive tests to standard liver biopsy for diagnosing fatty liver disease in people with type 2 diabetes or other signs of metabolic syndrome. It aims to see if these simpler tests can replace biopsies.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT07053488RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene-edited liver transplant to lower rejection risk
This trial tests a liver transplant using a donor organ that has been gene-edited to reduce the risk of rejection. It may help people who need a liver transplant and are not a perfect tissue match with their donor.
Beijing, ChangpingAges 16–85 - NCT07028580Recruiting
High-Protein Plant Diet for Liver Cirrhosis
This study tests whether a special diet high in plant-based protein (with some animal protein) can help people with severe liver cirrhosis who are waiting for a kidney transplant. The diet aims to improve nutrition and health without overloading the liver.
Athens, AtticaAges 18–80 - NCT06814990Recruiting
Heart and liver study for TIPSS patients
This study uses MRI and echocardiography to check heart function in people with alcohol-related liver cirrhosis who need a TIPSS procedure. It aims to learn more about how the heart works in these patients.
Jena, ThuringiaAges 18–99 - NCT06764966RecruitingPhase 2
Statin and beta blocker study for liver disease
This trial tests if adding a statin to beta blocker treatment helps people with advanced liver disease (cirrhosis) who have had complications like fluid buildup, confusion, or bleeding. It is for patients who are already taking a non-selective beta blocker and will be followed for 12 months.
Charleston, West VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06671275Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Testing CUD005 Injection for Advanced Liver Cirrhosis
This study tests an injection called CUD005 for people with advanced liver cirrhosis that is causing complications. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help improve liver function.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06658782Recruiting
MRI vs ultrasound for liver cancer detection in high-risk people
This trial compares two types of scans to see which detects liver cancer better in people at high risk. You would receive either an MRI with contrast or an ultrasound every 6 months to monitor for liver cancer.
Oxford, OxonAges 18 years+ - NCT06634186Enrolling by invitation

PSMA-11 PET/MRI for Liver Cirrhosis
This study uses a special PET/MRI scan with a tracer called PSMA-11 to look at how liver cirrhosis affects the liver. It may help doctors better understand and monitor the disease.
Charlestown, MassachusettsAges 18–99 - NCT04613921Recruiting
Liver transplant study for severe worsening liver failure
This study looks at when liver transplant is offered and what outcomes happen in people with cirrhosis who have severe “acute-on-chronic” worsening. It may help doctors decide which patients benefit most from transplant and improve care after listing or not listing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT05998330Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for liver cirrhosis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 194 recruiting liver 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 liver 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 liver 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.
