Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- NCT06613698RecruitingPhase 2
Testing an investigational drug for alcohol-related liver disease
This trial tests whether a new drug, GSK4532990, is safe and effective compared to a placebo in adults aged 18 to 70 with liver disease caused by alcohol use. The study aims to see if the drug can help treat advanced chronic liver disease.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–70 - NCT05082077Enrolling by invitation
Liver transplant donor data registry for better organ preservation
This study builds a global registry that tracks how donor livers are matched and preserved for transplant. It may help improve how doctors keep donor livers viable before surgery by learning from real-world cases.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05744713Enrolling by invitation
Study of adults with long-term liver disease using health records
This observational study looks at adults with chronic liver disease (including cirrhosis) to better understand how people are managed and how they feel over time. Because it does not change your treatment, it may help researchers improve care and patient support.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03813862Recruiting
Study tracking medicines from clinic records
This is an observational study that collects information about what medicines patients receive. It uses data already recorded in participating clinics’ computer health records to better understand medication use over time.

NST-6179 for liver disease from intestinal failure in adults
This Phase 2 study tests NST-6179 in people who have intestinal failure–associated liver disease (IFALD). It aims to improve liver function and overall outcomes for people whose liver inflammation and lab tests have been abnormal for at least 6 months.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 16 years+ - NCT07165028RecruitingPhase 3

Testing AZD2389 for fatty liver disease with scarring
This study tests whether a new drug called AZD2389 is safe and well-tolerated in adults with steatotic liver disease (fatty liver) that has progressed to advanced scarring. The trial aims to see if this drug might help slow or improve liver damage in people with this condition.
Morehead City, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03228290Recruiting
Liver transplant care study using patient function check
This study looks at how people with liver disease function day to day, especially around liver transplant care. It may help improve how doctors assess readiness and recovery needs.

Study of survodutide for liver disease NASH/MASH with fibrosis
This trial tests an investigational drug called survodutide for people with NASH or MASH, a type of fatty liver disease that also has liver scarring (moderate or advanced fibrosis). The goal is to see if the drug can improve the condition.

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.
Morehead City, North CarolinaAges 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.
Fayetteville, North CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT06920043RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new drug for cirrhosis from fatty liver disease
This trial tests a new medication (efimosfermin alfa) for people with cirrhosis (liver scarring) caused by MASH, a type of fatty liver disease. It aims to see if the drug can help improve liver health.
Wilson, North CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT07143968RecruitingPhase 2
Resmetirom for people with MASLD and HIV
This study tests if resmetirom can help people who have both HIV and a liver condition called MASLD (fat buildup in the liver not caused by alcohol). You may qualify if your liver has a certain amount of fat and stiffness, and your HIV is well controlled with stable medication.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT00345930Recruiting
Study of liver injury after medicines or supplements
This study looks at people (including children over age 2) who develop liver injury that may be caused by a drug or a complementary/alternative medicine (CAM) product. It helps doctors better understand what causes the injury and how to evaluate it.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 2 years+ - NCT06280950RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing immune-suppressing drugs after liver transplant with everolimus
This study tests if adding everolimus can allow liver transplant recipients to safely reduce their usual immune-suppressing medicines. It aims to protect kidney function while preventing organ rejection.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06075745RecruitingPhase 2
CMV Vaccine Study for Liver Transplant Candidates
This trial tests a vaccine to prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in people awaiting a first liver transplant. You may be eligible if you have never been infected with CMV and are scheduled to receive a liver transplant within the next 1 to 12 months.

What taking part in a liver diseases study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
