Study blood and organ changes in chronic liver disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how blood clotting, inflammation, and blood vessels change in people with chronic liver disease or cirrhosis. Your blood tests may help researchers understand what drives the disease and could guide future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have chronic liver disease or cirrhosis confirmed by one of these: biopsy, Fibroscan result above 10 kPa, or a mix of symptoms/lab tests/imaging plus risk factors
- If you do not have liver disease, you are 18 or older and have no known liver disease (or you are having blood drawn before surgery as part of routine care)
- You are able and willing to sign consent for the study
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you are not using certain blood-thinning/hemostasis-affecting medicines
- No recent surgery (within 2 weeks) and no blood transfusions (within 2 weeks) before the blood test

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a simple blood test to look for tiny particles from liver cells. It includes healthy volunteers, people with type 2 diabetes and liver scarring, and people with different stages of liver disease.
This study compares patterns of liver inflammation and the liver’s healing ability in people with alcohol-related liver disease, using blood tests and (in most cases) a liver tissue sample. It may help doctors better understand what is happening in the liver and how it may recover.
This study looks at new blood markers to better predict recovery in patients hospitalized for complications of cirrhosis (like fluid buildup, confusion, or bleeding). You may qualify if you were recently hospitalized for these issues and are expected to go home soon.
This Phase 4 study looks at how clotting measurements relate to bleeding risk in people with liver cirrhosis who need a planned liver procedure. The study may help doctors understand what coagulation results mean when doing these procedures safely.
This trial looks for better ways to detect liver scarring (fibrosis) in people with long-term liver disease. It may help find problems earlier.
This study looks at non-invasive tests (tests that don’t require surgery) to see whether they can diagnose and predict how chronic liver disease will worsen over time. If you may have chronic liver disease, these tests could help doctors follow your condition more accurately.
