A Master Protocol of Multiple Agents in Adults With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (SYNERGY-Outcomes)

Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

The main purpose of the SYNERGY-OUTCOMES study is to find out whether retatrutide and tirzepatide can prevent major adverse liver outcomes (MALO) in people with high-risk metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The study will enroll adults who have MASLD based on non-invasive tests (NITs), which indicate they are more likely to develop MALO. Participants will be randomly assigned within a Master Protocol to receive either retatrutide (N1T-MC-RT01), tirzepatide (N1T-MC-TZ01) or placebo. The trial plans to enroll about 4,500 adults and will run for approximately 224 weeks. Participants may have up to approximately 25 to 30 clinic visits throughout the study to monitor their health, complete study procedures, and assess liver function and disease progression. Once the study is complete, eligible participants may participate in an optional 2-year extension study, in which all participants will receive either retatrutide or tirzepatide, even if they received placebo in the main study.

Study to Check the Safety of Fazirsiran and Learn if Fazirsiran Can Help People With Liver Disease and Scarring (Fibrosis) Due to an Abnormal Version of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Protein

Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency

The main aim of this study is to learn if fazirsiran reduces liver scarring (fibrosis) compared to placebo. Other aims are to learn if fazirsiran slows down the disease worsening in the liver, to get information on how fazirsiran affects the body (called pharmacodynamics), to learn if fazirsiran reduces other liver injury (inflammation) and the abnormal Z-AAT protein in the liver, to get information on how the body processes fazirsiran (called pharmacokinetics), to test how well fazirsiran works compared with a placebo in improving measures of liver scarring including imaging and liver biomarkers (substances in the blood that the body normally makes and help show if liver function is improving, staying the same, or getting worse) as well as to check for side effects in participants treated with fazirsiran compared with those who received placebo. Participants will either receive fazirsiran or placebo. Liver biopsies, a way of collecting a small tissue sample from the liver, will be taken twice during this study.

Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy and Lifestyle Modification for the Treatment of Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis

NASH - Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis

Participants meeting study entry criteria are randomized with equal probability to one of two study groups: (1) Lifestyle modification or (2) Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG) with Iifestyle modification, followed for 12 months. The primary goal for the trial is to determine if the investigators can recruit, randomize, and retain participants to perform invasive and non-invasive measurements of NASH and fibrosis, deliver lifestyle modification and demonstrate the safety of VSG. The investigators wish to also understand which of these two interventions is more effective in achieving, 12 months after entry into the trial, a reduction in NAS composed of the non-weighted scores: (1) steatosis 0-3 (2) Inflammation 0-3 and (3) ballooning 0-2. Secondary goals include comparing the two treatment groups for changes in other measured outcomes including MRI assessments of intrahepatic triglyceride and liver elasticity and serum markers. As a pilot study, a sample size of 20 in each group should offer significant information as to the difference in NAS score reduction between to two groups and achieve adequate power to distinguish clinically significant changes in the primary and secondary outcome measures. These data support the overarching objective i.e. to provide evidence that a larger, longer-term clinical outcomes trial is feasible. A goal is for a longer term follow up for 5 years to assess the durability of treatment effects and treatment differences.

A Phase 2a Study of ALN-PNP With and Without a GLP1R Agonist in Adult Patients With Homozygous PNPLA3-Related MASLD

Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD)

This study will test a study drug called ALN-PNP with and without another drug that is used for controlling blood sugar, appetite, and weight (for example, tirzepatide), to see if it can help treat MASLD, also known as fatty liver disease. ALN-PNP reduces the amount of Patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3 (PNPLA3), a protein that liver cells make, which may help decrease liver fat if there is an abnormal PNPLA3 protein. The goal of this study is to understand the effect of ALN-PNP with or without tirzepatide on reducing liver fat. The study is looking at: * How well ALN-PNP with and without tirzepatide works * What side effects ALN-PNP might cause * How much ALN-PNP is in the blood at different times * How the body and the liver change after having ALN-PNP, which can help researchers understand why ALN-PNP works better in some people than others

Atezolizumab in Combination With a Multi-Kinase Inhibitor for the Treatment of Unresectable, Locally Advanced, or Metastatic Liver Cancer

Locally Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma · Metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma · Stage III Hepatocellular Carcinoma AJCC v8

This phase II trial tests whether atezolizumab in combination with a multi-kinase inhibitor (cabozantinib or lenvatinib) compared to multi-kinase inhibitor alone in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), has spread to has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), for which the patient has received treatment in the past (previously treated). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib and lenvatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving atezolizumab with cabozantinib or lenvatinib may kill more tumor cells in patients with liver cancer.

Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Treatment w/High Dose Melphalan Given Directly Into the Liver Followed by Treatment w/Approved Cancer Treatment or Approved Cancer Treatment Alone in Patients w/ Metastatic Colorectal Cancer w/Liver Dominant Disease

Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using a liver-directed therapy with high dose chemotherapy followed by approved cancer treatment to treat patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver is safe and tolerable. The clinical trial will also learn if the liver-directed therapy with high dose chemotherapy works on the disease in the liver. Investigators will compare the use of the liver-directed therapy with high dose chemotherapy followed by approved cancer treatment or approved cancer treatment alone. Participants will: * Undergo up to two liver-directed therapy with high dose chemotherapy procedures followed by approved cancer treatment or take approved cancer treatment alone * Visit clinic at least every two weeks for checkups and tests * Complete scans approximately every two months

Testing the Use of Chemotherapy After Surgery for High-Risk Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

Metastatic Malignant Neoplasm in the Liver · Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor · Stage I Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor AJCC v8

This phase II trial studies the effect of capecitabine and temozolomide after surgery in treating patients with high-risk well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Chemotherapy drugs, such as capecitabine and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving capecitabine and temozolomide after surgery could prevent or delay the return of cancer in patients with high-risk well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
