Brief Summary: Chronic liver diseases are often characterized by portal hypertension a major complication involving haemodynamic changes due to increased intrahepatic vascular resistance It has become well established that nitric oxide NO plays a crucial role in the haemodynamic abnormalities that develop in chronic portal hypertension

NCX-1000 is a NO-releasing derivative of ursodeoxycholic acid that would compensate for the defective liver NO production in cirrhosis

This study intends to demonstrate the desired therapeutic activity reduction in portal pressure in a small number of target patients to assess the safety and tolerability after repeated oral administrations of NCX-1000 and to get preliminary pharmacokinetic data in this population
