Trial summary

Intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) is an essential component of parenteral nutrition (PN), but also one of the key risk factors for development of intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFALD). The aim of the study was to analyse the influence of ILEs on liver function during long term PN. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Intravenous Lipid Emulsions and Liver Function in Adult Chronic Intestinal Failure Patients: New Results After 5 Years.

Intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) is an essential component of parenteral nutrition (PN), but also one of the key risk factors for development of intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFALD). The aim of the study was to analyse the influence of ILEs on liver function during long term PN.

Read the detailed description

Intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) is an essential component of parenteral nutrition (PN), but also one of the key risk factors for development of intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFALD). Despite of many commercially available ILEs with hypothetically different impact on liver, a direct comparison of them has never been performed. Therefore the aim of the study was to analyse the influence of ILEs on liver function during long term PN. Ths study is a continuation of the previous trial, NCT03044639.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Intravenous Lipid Emulsion in people with Liver Failure and Parenteral Nutrition-Related Hepatitis, run by Stanley Dudrick's Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Poland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Liver disfunction (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04347902, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Apr 2020.
