The full-time research coordinator is involved in conducting the research studies that are in progress at NYU Hospitals Center. Our staff is currently involved in more than a half-dozen clinical trials, including studies of: the efficacy of two new anti-viral medications in patients chronically infected with hepatitis B; various medications for preventing recurrence of hepatitis C in liver transplant patients; a new tissue sealant, for use in patients undergoing liver resection, that uses components of a patient's own blood to create customized sealants, thus avoiding the possibility of contamination from donated blood products; a steroid-free immunosuppressant treatment regimen for liver transplant recipients with hepatitis C; and the use of plasmapheresis for the treatment of fulminant hepatic failure.
