2 Patients or LAR /IW able to provide informed consent voluntarily to participate in the study

3 Patients diagnosed with ALF of known/unknown etiology

4 Acute liver failure, defined as the development of coagulopathy (International normalized ratio [INR] =1.5) with encephalopathy in a patient with no prior history of liver disease with onset of symptoms within 28 days of the inciting event

5 Patients may have either a history of acetaminophen overdose (defined as >4 g/day within 7 days of presentation) and/or detectable acetaminophen levels in the serum with a pattern of liver function tests typical for acetaminophen toxicity (bilirubin <10 mg/dL and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =1000 IU/L) or a diagnosis of hepatitis A hepatitis B drug induced liver injury autoimmune hepatitis or indeterminate cause based on standard criteria

8 Serum Creatinine >1.5mg/d

Exclusion Criteria

1 History of chronic liver disease

2 Signs of overt cerebral herniation, or uncontrolled intracranial hypertension by ICP monitoring

3 Significant gastrointestinal bleeding (coffee grounds per ng tube and/or melena)

5 Cardiopulmonary complications such as pulmonary edema aspiration pneumonia heart failure QT interval of >500msec at baseline ECG

6 Pregnancy

7 History of malignancy that has not been cured or any cancer in remission for less than 1 year Nonmelanoma skin cancers do not preclude participation in the trial
