An observational study in Liver Diseases and Chronic Liver Disease, sponsored by Medica Sur Clinic & Foundation. Completed. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 50 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2018-02-22.
Sponsored by Medica Sur Clinic & Foundation · Observational
Twenty-four healthy volunteers of both genders, aged 18 to 44 years old and body mass indexes between 18 to 27 kg/m2,were selected to participate in a two-way, balanced, prospective, blind, single-dose crossover study with a one-week wash-out period. It was assessed that volunteers were free from significant cardiac, hepatic, renal, pulmonary, neurological, gastrointestinal and hematological diseases. The volunteers clinical evaluation were determined by clinical examination, ECG, and the following laboratory tests: blood glucose, urea, creatinine, AST, ALT, GGT, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin and fractions, uric acid, total cholesterol, triglycerides, albumin and total protein, and routine urinalysis. All subjects were negative for HIV, HBV, and HCV.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
ECG (electrocardiogram)
