If the study demonstrates the optimization of the number of interventions needed to reach diagnostic and therapeutic goals in the setting of suspected liver disease thanks to the utilization of Acquire compared to other liver biopsy procedures, this data can be used as part of economic messaging of the BSC Acquire Fine Needle Biopsy.\n\nThis Registry will document all relevant diagnostic and therapeutic radiologic - trans jugular or percutaneous - and endoscopic/endosonographic interventions which enrolled patients undergo when they are suspected to have liver disease and are indicated for an endoscopic procedure and liver biopsy. The study will help illustrate that an EUS guided approach for liver biopsy in patients with suspected liver disease that is indicated for:\n\nUpper endoscopy and Liver biopsy will benefit both the patients and the hospitals from completing both procedures in one setting.\n\nWhere possible, the proposed Registry will also allow for the dynamic assessment of the severity of liver disease and for monitoring of changes to therapy for liver fibrosis and/ or portal hypertension. It is anticipated that the ability to monitor changes in liver status over time will become increasingly important as new therapies emerge in the field.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The study will enroll patients with suspected liver disease that are indicated for upper endoscopy for the assessment for esophageal varices and liver biopsy as per the local standard of care.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adult (per local age threshold)\n* Suspected liver disease based on abnormal liver function tests, standard ultrasound, transient elastography (Fibro Scan) or CT or MRI of the liver\n* Planned upper endoscopy to evaluate for varices\n* Planned liver biopsy based on suspected hepatitis or cirrhosis\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Severe Coagulation/bleeding disorder as defined by INR \\> 2 IU which cannot be corrected with FFP or Platelets \\< 50,000 per microliter which cannot be corrected with platelet transfusion.\n* Severe organ failure considered unsafe to undergo sedation (ASA class 4 or 5)\n* Inability to provide informed consent'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05817994', 'acronym': 'REGAL', 'briefTitle': 'Endoscopic Ultrasound Guided Liver Biopsy and Portal Pressure Registry', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City'}, 'officialTitle': 'Registry of Endoscopic Ultrasound Guided Assessment of the Liver (REGAL Study)', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '313'}}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'UNDECIDED'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Boston Scientific Corporation', 'class': 'INDUSTRY'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
