Randomized Controlled Trial
Clinical Evaluation of an HTK Solution for Liver Transplantation: A Phase 3 Randomized Pilot Clinical Trial Study.
Organ preservation solutions are not easily accessible in Iran, similar to many resource-limited countries. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a locally-produced HTK solution among adult liver transplantation candidates in a pilot clinical trial study. ⋯ Based on the findings of this pilot study with the current sample size, no statistically significant difference was found between our locally-produced HTK solution and Custodiol® regarding clinical outcomes.
