Carvedilol, a non-selective beta-blocker (NSBB), is recommended in all the patients with cirrhosis and clinically significant PHT in order to prevent decompensation of cirrhosis.\n\nNevertheless, 40 % of patients are NSBB non-responders, i.e. they do not show a significant decrease in HVPG. In addition, NSBB responders treated for primary prophylaxis have an incidence of variceal bleeding of approximately 10% per year, with a six-week mortality of 20%. Therefore, there is an unmet need for PHT in patients with cirrhosis who do not respond to NSBB, and also for an increase in efficacy in responders. In a randomised pilot study, Rittig et al. observed a mean change in HVPG of -2,9 mm Hg in 16 patients with cirrhosis and HVPG ≥ 12 mm Hg, not treated with NSBB, 90 minutes after ingestion of 1000 mg metformin.\n\nThe study will be a prospective, national, multicentre, phase II, superiority comparative randomized (1:1) simple-blinded clinical trial with two parallel arms: metformin versus placebo.\n\nThe main objective is to evaluate the effect of metformin versus placebo during 28 days on HVPG, in patients with cirrhosis and a HVPG ≥ 12 mm Hg already treated with carvedilol.\n\nSubjects randomized in the metformin group or placebo group will receive metformin ou placebo, one pill of 500 mg per os twice a day (one in the morning and one in the evening, during or at the end of the meal) for 28 days.",[82,83],"Cirrhosis","Portal Hypertension Related to Cirrhosis",[85,86,87,88,89],"cirrhosis","portal hypertension","metformin","hepatic venous pressure gradient","carvedilol","2025-04-09",{"date":92,"type":93},"2025-04-13","ACTUAL",{"date":95,"type":93},"2025-03-10",{"date":97,"type":76},"2027-07-31",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
