About this study
Official title: Clinical Trial of Omegaven™ Therapy for Parenteral Nutrition Associated Cholestasis
This is a clinical study designed to evaluate the safety and benefit of a fish oil based fat emulsion in the treatment of liver disease associated with prolonged use of intravenous nutrition.
Read the detailed description
Specific Aims of Study
- To determine the safety profile of an intravenous omega-3 fat emulsion (Omegaven™)
- To determine if established PN associated liver disease can be reversed or its progression halted by using a parenteral fat emulsion prepared from fish oil as measured by normalization of serum levels of hepatic enzymes and bilirubin.
- Conditions
- Cholestasis
- Being tested
- Omegaven
- Keywords
- short bowel syndrome, intestinal failure, total parenteral nutrition associated cholestasis
- Medical subject headings
