Study Summary

One-third of the U.S. population suffers from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is caused by diabetes and obesity, and is becoming more common. Although many people have this disease, the change in how the liver handles drugs and compounds in the body has not been studied. The purpose of this study is to investigate how advanced NAFLD changes the ability of the liver to handle both endogenous and exogenous compounds.

Primary Outcome

Morphine will be administered as a 5-min IV infusion. Pharmacokinetic profiles of morphine and morphine metabolites will be quantified in the serum over the 8-hour sampling period. Non-compartmental analysis will be performed using Pharsight Phoenix software, comparing the following parameters between healthy subjects and patients with advanced NAFLD. The maximal concentration, time of maximal concentration, elimination half-life, area under the curve, and systemic and renal clearances will be c

Interventions
