Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a high dose of
vitamin D (VD) in patients with cirrhosis. The investigator hypothesizes that high dose VD
will be safe and well-tolerated in adults with cirrhosis, and will inhibit the inflammatory
and proliferative events that cause progression of cirrhosis to hepatocellular carcinoma.
