In a pilot randomized controlled trial, we found administration of G-CSF to improve liver function and increase survival times in patients with severe AH, compared with standard therapy. We found no evidence for benefit of adding NAC to G-CSF. These findings require confirmation in larger trials. ClincialTrials.gov, number: NCT02971306.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
