Test of efimosfermin alfa in adults with liver problems
This trial is for adults with liver cirrhosis (scarring) who have moderate to severe liver impairment. It studies how the body handles a new medicine called efimosfermin alfa, to see if it could be a safe treatment option. You may be able to join if your liver function is stable and you fall into a specific Child-Pugh class.

Liver health follow-up study for type 2 diabetes
This study follows up on people with type 2 diabetes who already took part in an earlier study about liver health. It uses an MRI scan to check the liver for fat and other changes, helping doctors understand the long-term impact of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

Measuring liver pressure with ultrasound for advanced liver disease
This trial uses a minimally invasive ultrasound technique to directly measure blood pressure in the liver's main vein. It may help doctors decide if patients with severe scarred livers need medication to prevent variceal bleeding.
RomaAges 18–99 - 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.
Liestal, Basel-LandschaftAges 18 years+ - NCT07280143Recruiting
MASLD risk in breast or colorectal cancer survivors
This study looks at whether breast or colorectal cancer survivors are more likely to develop a liver condition called MASLD (fatty liver disease not caused by alcohol). It uses blood tests, imaging, and possibly an MRI to check liver health.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT07280390Recruiting
Microplastics in people with cirrhosis
This trial checks whether tiny plastic particles (microplastics) are present in the liver and body of people with cirrhosis who are having planned surgery or a liver transplant. It aims to understand if microplastics might make liver disease worse.
Chandigarh, ChandigarhAges 18–70 - NCT06890169Recruiting
One-stop telehealth program for weight and diabetes
This trial tests a telehealth program that helps people lose weight and manage type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease at the same time. It's a one-stop remote clinic that combines medical advice, nutrition, and lifestyle support.
SingaporeAges 21–70 - NCT07246421Recruiting
Glucagon resistance in fatty liver and diabetes
This study looks at how people with fatty liver and type 2 diabetes respond to glucagon, a hormone that helps control blood sugar. It may help researchers understand a condition called 'glucagon resistance' and find better treatments.
AarhusAges 30–70 - NCT07237750Recruiting
Weight loss trial: endoscopy procedure vs lifestyle changes
This study compares a new endoscopic procedure (a stomach tightening treatment done through a tube in your mouth) with a structured diet and exercise program to help with weight loss. It is for Asian adults who have tried and failed to lose weight before.

Diet program vs bariatric surgery for liver health
This study compares two ways to help people with obesity and liver problems: a special diet program or weight-loss surgery. Researchers will look at changes in fats, immune system, and genetic markers to see which approach works better.

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 - NCT07221188RecruitingPhase 3
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 - NCT07185932RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Rifaximin for fatty liver with metabolic issues
This trial tests if rifaximin, a gut-targeted antibiotic, can help people with fatty liver disease who also have metabolic problems like obesity or diabetes. You need a recent fatty liver diagnosis and a liver fat level of at least 8% on an MRI scan.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06953921Recruiting
Liver disease and confusion: does albumin level matter?
This study looks at whether low albumin levels in the blood are linked to more severe confusion caused by liver disease. It may help doctors understand how to better manage hepatic encephalopathy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for liver diseases?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 423 recruiting liver diseases 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 diseases 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 diseases 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.
