The Safety and Tolerability Study of HepaCure in Chinese Subjects With Acute-On-Chronic Liver Failure
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label phase 1/2 clinical study conducted in China to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of hiHep cell-based bio-artificial liver support system (HepaCure) plus DPMAS versus DPMAS alone in Chinese subjects with acute-on-chronic liver failure（ACLF）.
Phase 1 is a multicenter, open label study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single dose and multiple doses of HepaCure with different treatment duration plus DPMAS in ACLF subjects respectively.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Safety outcome [28 days after the end of last treatment]
The adverse events (AE), Serious adverse event (SAE), adverse events of special concern (AESI), and device defects (leakage caused by the quality problem of the plasma biological purification column itself) of the safety paramater will be collected, and the safety and tolerability within 14 days and 28 days will be evaluated from the end of the last treatment
