Phase 1
A clinical study to evaluate a new medicinal product VS-01 in patients with an acute episode on top of a chronic liver disease (called acute-on-chronic liver failure) who experience accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity (called ascites) as well as intellectual, behavioral decay and physical decay.Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is characterized by hepatic andextrahepatic organ dysfunction and/or failure and highly activatedsystemic inflammation. It leads to an accumulation of different metabolites, interalias ammonia, which cannot be metabolized.Hyperammonemia leads to Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE). ACLF is amajor cause of death in cirrhosis, with an approximately 50% mortality rate. The selected patient population is ACLF grade 1 and 2 patients with ascites.MedDRA version: 24.0Level: PTClassification code 10077305Term: Acute on chronic liver failureSystem Organ Class: 10019805 - Hepatobiliary disordersTherapeutic area: Diseases [C] - Nutritional and Metabolic Diseases [C18]EUCTR2021-002617-33-DEVersantis AG60
