Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease (cGVHD)
The purpose of this study is to determine if vimseltinib is safe, tolerable and works effectively to treat adults with active moderate to severe cGVHD. Participants will be treated with vimseltinib in 28-day treatment cycles for approximately 2 years.
Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) / Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) With Compensated Cirrhosis
The study will assess the efficacy and safety of pegozafermin administered in participants with compensated cirrhosis due to MASH (biopsy-confirmed fibrosis stage F4 MASH \[previously known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, NASH\]).
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Pumitamig alone or in combination with Ipilimumab in participants with first-line advanced or unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)
End Stage Liver Disease
This will be a prospective cohort study of patients with liver disease. Subjects will undergo geriatric assessments of frailty, functional status, and disability using functional status measures at baseline and at every clinic visit in the pre-transplant setting. Subjects will also answer questions regarding quality of life, personality, and/or cognitive function. Subjects will again undergo assessments at every clinic visit through 12 months after transplant. Then, they will be followed annually.
Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma · Cirrhosis · Stage III Hepatocellular Carcinoma AJCC v8
This phase Ib/II trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of zanzalintinib and how well it works in treating patients with hepatocellular (liver) cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Zanzalintinib is in a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. Giving zanzalintinib may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with advanced liver cancer.
Alpha 1-Antitrypsin Deficiency · Emphysema or COPD
Alpha-1 Anti-trypsin Deficiency (AATD) is a genetic disease with lung and liver disease presentations. Presentations are variable in the heterozygous population, the most predominant genotype being PiMZ. The purpose of this study in PiMZ heterozygous patients is to examine the density of the lung as measured by chest computed tomography (CT) and determine if existing emphysema predicts changes in the rate of subsequent emphysema or changes in CT, serum or plasma biomarkers of interest. The overarching goal is to develop biomarkers pertinent to the PiMZ patient that can be used in interventional trials since lung function changes do not typically inform disease progression in AATD.
Unresectable or Metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma · Child-Pugh A Hepatocellular Carcinoma · Failure of First-Line Treatment That Included an Approved Anti PD-(L)1 Compound
This is a Phase 2b, randomized, blinded clinical trial investigating the efficacy and safety of visugromab in combination with nivolumab and Lenvatinib compared to double placebo and Lenvatinib in participants with unresectable or metastatic HCC and compensated liver function (Child-Pugh A) after failure of 1L treatment that included an anti-PD-(L)1 compound. The trial consists of 2 Parts: a non-randomized Safety-run-in part (Part 1) and the subsequent randomized part (Part 2) with 2 treatment arms (A and B). Randomization of participants into Treatment Arm A and B will continue until 40 efficacy-evaluable participants are enrolled into each Treatment Arm.
Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASH) / Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) With Fibrosis
The study will assess the efficacy and safety of 2 dose regimens of pegozafermin compared to placebo for the treatment of liver fibrosis stage F2 or F3 in adult participants with MASH.
HER2-positive Advanced Solid Tumor
This is a dose-escalation and dose-expansion Phase 1/2a trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DB-1303/BNT323 in subjects with advanced solid tumors that express HER2.
Intestinal Failure Associated Liver Disease
This is a phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NST-6179 in subjects with intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) receiving parenteral nutrition (PN). The study will be conducted in 2 sequential parts. Up to 36 subjects diagnosed with IFALD will be enrolled in the study, of which up to 18 subjects will be enrolled in each of the 2 parts and randomized (2:1) to receive NST-6179 (N=12/part) or matched placebo (N=6/part). Subjects in Part A will receive once daily (QD) oral administration of 800 mg (32 mL solution) NST-6179 or placebo for 4 weeks. The NST-6179 dose for Part B is planned to be 1200 mg QD for 12 weeks. Actual dose, however, will be determined during the safety review meeting.
X-Linked Myotubular Myopathy
XLMTM (X-linked myotubular myopathy) is a serious genetic muscle condition. It is caused by changes in the MTM1 gene which stops or slows down normal muscle development, causing severe muscle weakness. There is currently no cure for XLMTM. Ongoing care is needed to manage symptoms and prevent further medical problems from this condition. Recent research shows that individuals with XLMTM often have reduced bile flow which can affect liver and gallbladder health. Bile is a liquid made in the liver that helps digest fat. Ongoing liver health checks may help with the routine care of people with XLMTM. There is a need to understand liver problems that develop in individuals with XLMTM over time. The main aim of the study is to learn how many boys with XLMTM have new cases of liver problems during the study. This study is about collecting information only. This is known as an observational study. The individual's doctor decides on treatment, not the study sponsor (Astellas). In this study, boys under 18 diagnosed with XLMTM will be followed for about 1 year. The health of their liver and gallbladder will be checked about every 6 weeks. This can be done at home, if preferred. A scan called a Fibroscan (also known as transient elastography) will check for signs of scarring in the liver (fibrosis) and the build-up of lipids. It is suggested that each boy will have a Fibroscan when they start the study and another scan when they complete the study. This study will help understand liver, gallbladder, and bile duct issues in individuals with XLMTM over time. The goal is to improve their care and provide information to use in future clinical studies.
Patients Undergoing Routine Health Care · Heart Diseases · Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
The purpose of this study is to collect DNA samples from patients undergoing routine care at the University of Chicago. These samples will be tested for differences in genes that may suggest greater risk of side effects or chance of increased benefit from certain medications. The results will be made available to the patient's treating physician and the researchers will track whether or not this information is used in routine health care.
Liver Diseases
Patients with complications of advanced liver disease often have difficulties after hospital discharge that result in early hospital readmission. Poor outcomes for these patients during this transitional time could be improved through the use of innovative transitional care models. This proposal aims to examine the effect of a transitional care model, The Transitional Liver Clinic (TLC), in reducing hospital re-admissions, improving quality of life, and improving patient experience.
Adenocarcinoma (NOS) · Anal Cancer · Bladder Cancer
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of T-DXd in patients with HER2-positive (IHC 3+) locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic solid tumors who have received prior systemic treatment for metastatic or advanced disease and have no satisfactory alternative treatment options in a real-world setting in the US
Carcinoma, Hepatocellular · Liver Cancer · Liver Cirrhosis
The National Liver Cancer Screening Trial is an adaptive randomized phase IV Trial comparing ultrasound-based versus biomarker-based screening in 5500 patients with cirrhosis from any etiology or patients with chronic hepatitis B infection. Eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to Arm A using semi-annual ultrasound and AFP-based screening or Arm B using semi-annual screening using GALAD alone. Randomization will be stratified by sex, enrolling site, Child Pugh class (A vs. B), and HCC etiology (viral vs. non-viral). Patients will be recruited from 15 sites (mix of tertiary care and large community health systems) over a 3-year period, and the primary endpoint of the phase IV trial, reduction in late-stage HCC, will be assessed after 5.5 years.
Biliary Atresia
Biliary atresia, idiopathic neonatal hepatitis, and specific genetic cholestatic conditions are the most common causes of jaundice and hyperbilirubinemia that continue beyond the newborn period. The long term goal of the Childhood Liver Disease Research Network (ChiLDReN) is to establish a database of clinical information and plasma, serum, and tissue samples from cholestatic children to facilitate research and to perform clinical, epidemiological and therapeutic trials in these important pediatric liver diseases.
MASH - Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis
A Phase 2 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate resmetirom in 2 cohorts of subjects with moderate to advanced fibrosis, consistent with stage F2 and F3 fibrosis, who have undergone liver transplant. Cohort 1 will consist of patients who have undergone liver transplant for MASH cirrhosis who developed recurrent MASH. Cohort 2 will consist of subjects who have undergone liver transplant for indications other than MASH cirrhosis who developed de novo MASH.
Pancreatic Cancer · Liver Cancer (Locally Advanced or Metastatic) · Pancreatic Cancer Non-resectable
The goal of this study is to assess the overall success of energy delivery during treatment using the ultrasound guided microwave ablation device in patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic cancer. Secondly, this study aims to explore the procedural/clinical safety of treatment with the device and the antitumor effect following treatment with the device.
