Clinical Trial: Understanding Gene ENvironment Interaction in ALcohol-related Hepatocellular Carcinoma

U.S., Dec. 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07272200) titled 'Understanding Gene ENvironment Interaction in ALcohol-related Hepatocellular Carcinoma' on Feb. 18.

Brief Summary: It has been estimated that alcohol causes around 40% of premature liver deaths in Europe each year, although this number is probably underestimated.
