Evaluation of Patients With Liver Disease : Evaluation of Patients With Liver Disease

Study Description:This is a clinical research protocol to allow for collection of samples and data obtained during clinical evaluation and long-term follow up of patients who have an acute or chronic liver disease. The protocol is designed to create a repository to study the natural history and pathogenesis of various liver diseases such as acute and chronic hepatitis B, C, D and E, primary biliary cirrhosis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, Wilson's disease, hemochromatosis, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), noncirrhotic portal hypertension, hepatocellular carcinoma, and cryptogenic or poorly defined forms of chronic liver disease. Samples collected during the course of clinical care for patients with liver disease include blood, saliva, urine, stool, and residual tissue obtained during clinically-indicated liver biopsies not otherwise needed for clinical care. Additionally, subjects with liver disease will be asked to provide a blood sample for genetic analysis. Healthy volunteers will be recruited and asked to provide a blood sample to serve as controls for the genetic analyses. Research will be conducted to investigate genetic factors that may contribute to liver diseasesObjectives: Primary ObjectiveTo collect data and samples during clinical evaluation, treatment and follow-up of participants for future use in studies of liver diseasesSecondary ObjectiveTo determine if genetic factors may contribute to the susceptibility, progression, outcome, or treatment success of different liver diseases..
