Effect of Long-term Carvedilol to Prevent Decompensation or Death in Patients With Asymptomatic Child-Pugh A5 to B8 Cirrhosis and Clinically Significant Portal Hypertension: a Multicenter Double-blind Randomized Control Trial

NCT06263816

RandomizedParallel-groupTriple-blindTreatment

Summary

Decompensation of cirrhosis is a turning point in cirrhosis course, as associated with a marked decrease in life expectancy. Thus, prevention of decompensation is crucial. The usefulness of carvedilol to prevent decompensation of cirrhosis in patients with TE-LSM ≥ 25 kPa as a surrogate marker for clinically significant portal hypertension, has never been evaluated in a clinical trial.
