Trial of Inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) on Ischemia / Reperfusion Injury During Orthotopic Liver Transplantation With Marginal Grafts
Phase 2
- Conditions
- Liver Transplant
- Registration Number
- NCT01172691
- Lead Sponsor
- Baylor Research Institute
- Brief Summary
This study is being done to determine if patients receiving (iNO) will have increased liver function and less damage from IR than patients who do not receive (iNO).

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Evaluate the role of iNO in early ischemia reperfusion injury in marginal liver grafts during human orthotopic liver or liver/kidney transplantation. 24 hours to 1 month
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method iNO group will show accelerated restoration of liver allograft function following liver transplantation and this may translate to better clinical outcomes. Marginal grafts may function better in the treated group 1 month to 1 year
