Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

This research is studying the use of a new drug to learn about its safety and efficacy as a treatment for hepatic encephalopathy. Eligible participants will be enrolled and given oral antibiotics followed by 14 days of the study drug (placebo vs.VE303). There will be visits as well as other procedures to collect blood and stool samples, and have tests of your cognition (thinking) for this research study. The hypothesis is that VE303 will safely and effectively improve cognitive function in patients with a history of overt hepatic encephalopathy.
