Blood tests and genes for alcoholic hepatitis recovery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at blood samples and genetic information from people with acute alcoholic hepatitis to understand why some recover better than others. It aims to find better ways to predict and improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must have been diagnosed with acute alcoholic hepatitis, confirmed by a doctor or in a lab report.
- You cannot be younger than 18 years old at the time of diagnosis.

This study tests a new drug called MRG-001 to see if it helps people with alcoholic hepatitis. The trial is looking for patients who have severe alcoholic hepatitis (with jaundice starting in the last 8 weeks) and have been drinking heavily for at least 6 months.
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 trial looks at the gut bacteria (microbiome) in people with severe alcoholic hepatitis to understand how it affects the illness. It may help doctors find better ways to treat this condition.
This trial tests whether giving corticosteroids for a longer time, or adding a medicine called N-acetylcysteine, can help people with severe alcoholic hepatitis. It is for patients who have been drinking heavily and recently developed jaundice.
This study looks at genetic differences in people with alcohol-related liver illness, including a recent jaundice episode (alcoholic hepatitis). By following people over time, it may help doctors better predict illness and understand why some people develop worse liver problems.
This trial studies whether people with alcohol-related hepatitis can see their liver function improve. It looks at patients whose diagnosis is supported by blood tests and imaging, and excludes those with liver cancer.
