The Sponsor of this research study is trying to develop a new experimental diagnostic blood test that may help detect colorectal cancer and other diseases. A diagnostic test identifies a specific disease or condition. Experimental means the test has not received approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for sale.
The main goal of this research study is to collect health information and blood samples from people who are going to have a standard-of-care screening colonoscopy. The blood samples along with other health information from patients who take part in the study may help the Sponsor develop new diagnostic tests that may help detect cancer or other diseases in other patients in the future.

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study
evaluating the safety and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects with PSC
without cirrhosis.

The study will consist of an 8-week Screening period,96 weeks of treatment, and a follow-up visit 4 weeks after completion of treatment. (Patients would be required to come to MUSC for 12 visits for a physical check-up, blood work, and to receive more study medication).

If the subject qualifies they will be randomized into one of two groups. The two groups include one receiving 100mg active GS-9674 or placebo. There is a 2/3 chance to be receiving active drug over placebo. The drug GS-9674 is a capsule that is taken once a day in the morning (with or without food).

The purpose of this study is to see if GS-9674 slows the scarring process in subjects with PSC.

This an observational study that aims to assess the outcome of patients with advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis recurrence in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection after HCV eradication. We aim to describe this unique group of patients as well as determine whether any particular variables are significant predictors of fibrosis/cirrhosis resolution. A multivariate analysis will be conducted to determine risk factors independently related to fibrosis/cirrhosis resolution and clinical outcome.

This is a treatment study for people who have Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) fibrosis but not cirrhosis. The purpose of the study is to see whether the oral investigational medication, Elafibranor, is effective and safe in treating liver fibrosis.

This study is to find the best time that a follow up appointment can be scheduled to benefit the patient with liver cirrohis to return after having the bleeding vessels in the esophagus repaired by directing a scope in the esophagus and using bands to stop the bleeding.

The study will compare two durations of treatment with Octreotide in patients with confirmed esophageal variceal hemorrhage who have undergone successful endoscopy and possible endoscopic therapy for control of bleeding. All procedures including the treatment are the standard of care. Octreotide infusion and endoscopic therapy for esophageal variceal bleeding are not investigational.
