DECISION: The clinical trial of the project (by Paolo Caraceni from UNIBO, Italy)

The objective of the DECISION project is to enhance the understanding of the pathophysiology of #decompensation of #cirrhosis leading to acute-on-chronic liver failure (#ACLF) or death. This consortium will take advantage of already existing large and clinically well-characterized cohorts to ultimately develop prognostic and response tests and #combinatorial #therapies tailored to the needs of individual patients to decrease the risk of short-term death. In this video, Prof. Dr. Paolo Caraceni explains the #clinicaltrial, the predictive and response tests, the project's approach to best-possible patient #stratification, and the expected beneficial outcome of DECISION.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 847949. This video reflects only the presenter's view and the European Commission is not responsible for any use that may be made of the information it contains.
