Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary aim of the trial is to examine whether administering either G-CSF alone or G-CSF followed by repeated infusions of stem cells is better than standard supportive care in improving severity of liver disease over 3 months. ; Primary end point(s): The primary outcome measure will be change in MELD (Model for End stage Liver Disease) score (delta MELD) calculated using MELD at randomisation (Day 0) and Day 90 MELD. ; Secondary Objective: The secondary aims are to examine whether either G-CSF alone or G-CSF followed by repeated stem cell infusions is better than standard supportive care in: a) reducing the amount of scarring in the liver b) improving quality of life c) reducing the number of complications related to liver disease d) improving survival (without needing a transplant)
