This study is to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of RL-1 Novel Human-derived Bio-artificial Liver treatment in patients with Hepatitis b virus related acute-on-chronic liver failure.
Hepatitis b virus (HBV) related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a serious condition with high mortality rate in China. But there still lacks of effective therapies in treatment of HBV related ACLF, except liver transplantation. RL-1 Novel Human-derived Bio-artificial Liver treatment may be an effective and safe therapy due to the previous clinical data. This study is to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of RL-1 Novel Human-derived Bio-artificial Liver treatment in patients with HBV related ACLF.
