About this study
Official title: A Clinical Trial Assessing the Safety, Tolerability, and Exploratory Efficacy of a Novel Bioartificial Liver Therapy in Patients With Liver Failure or Small-for-Size Syndrome
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a novel bioartificial liver (CiPS-BAL) in patients with liver failure or small-for-size syndrome. The study will also collect preliminary data on clinical outcomes and laboratory parameters during treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Is the novel bioartificial liver system safe and well tolerated in patients with liver failure or small-for-size syndrome?

What effects does the treatment have on liver function and other clinical and laboratory indicators?
Researchers will treat participants with the CiPS-BAL system, which uses hepatocytes derived from chemically induced pluripotent stem cells (CiPS) within a bioartificial liver device.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Chemically induced pluripotent stem cells biological Artificial LiverBiological
Participants will receive CiPS-BAL therapy, a novel bioartificial liver treatment that combines functional hepatocytes derived from chemically induced pluripotent stem cells (CiPS) with an extracorporeal bioartificial liver device. The CiPS-derived hepatocytes are generated and cultured in vitro under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) conditions and subsequently loaded into the bioartificial liver device prior to treatment.
Each treatment session utilizes 1 × 10¹⁰ functional hepatocytes. Therapy is administered via central venous access (e.g., femoral, internal jugular, or subclavian vein) for 4-8 hours per session. The planned treatment frequency is one session, with the possibility of additional sessions depending on clinical response and safety evaluation.
Standard medical therapy for liver failure or small-for-size syndrome will be provided concomitantly. Participants will be closely monitored for safety, tolerability, and changes in clinical and laboratory parameters throughout

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing Chemically induced pluripotent stem cells biological Artificial Liver in people with Liver Failure and Small-for-Size Syndrome, run by Beijing Friendship Hospital at 1 site in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Wan-Ting Zhang (+86 13699189579, 13699189579@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events and serious adverse events (time frame: From completion of CiPS-BAL therapy through Week 4 post-treatment (assessed at 1 hour, 12 hours, 24 hours, Day 2, Day 3, Day 5, Day 7, Week 2, Week 4).). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Apr 2026.
