Study of MASH and cell changes in weight-loss surgery

Rome, LazioAges 18 years+ - NCT06888310Recruiting
Better liver test for metabolic fatty liver disease
This study tests a better way to check for advanced liver scarring (cirrhosis) in people with fatty liver disease. It might help you avoid unnecessary procedures if you have metabolic liver disease and are at risk of serious liver problems.
RomaAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06891365RecruitingPhase 1
Multiple doses of a new drug for fatty liver disease
This trial tests a new medication for people with fatty liver disease. It will see if the drug can reduce liver fat and improve liver health over several doses.
HarrowAges 18–64 - 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.
SohagAges 18 years+ - NCT06984510Recruiting
Early aging and diabetes risk with fatty liver
This study looks at how early biological aging might increase the chance of developing type 2 diabetes in people with a fatty liver (a condition called MASLD). It uses routine health check-up data to understand the link.
Ningbo, ZhejiangAges 20–90 - NCT07051863Recruiting
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease study with biobank
This study collects health information and samples from people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease to better understand the condition. It may help researchers find new ways to diagnose or treat this liver problem.
Lugano, Canton TicinoAges 18 years+ - 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07159386Recruiting
Detecting advanced liver scarring in fatty liver disease
This study tests a new screening tool to find advanced liver scarring in people with liver disease linked to diabetes. It helps doctors decide who needs more tests or specialist care.

- 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.
