Limitations and caveats
The broad range of fibrosis stages included in the study and the high placebo response rates especially in the F2 and F6 fibrosis stages impacted the primary endpoint of improvement in fibrosis score from baseline.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With At Least a One Stage Reduction From Baseline in Ishak Fibrosis Score24 months
At least a one stage reduction from baseline in Ishak Fibrosis Stage. Score F0 No fibrosis F1 Fibrous expansion of some portal areas, with or without short fibrous septa F2 Fibrous expansion of most portal areas, with or without short fibrous septa F3 Fibrous expansion of most portal areas, with occasional portal to portal bridging F4 Fibrous expansion of portal areas, with marked bridging (portal to portal as well as portal to central) F5 Marked bridging (portal to portal and/or portal to central) with occasional nodules (incomplete cirrhosis) F6 Cirrhosis probable or definite Since the primary analysis used multiple imputation methodology, the numerator and denominator varied across 20 imputations.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With At Least a One Stage Reduction From Baseline in Ishak Fibrosis Score (Observed Cases Only)24 months
At least a one stage reduction from baseline in Ishak Fibrosis Stage. Score F0 No fibrosis F1 Fibrous expansion of some portal areas, with or without short fibrous septa F2 Fibrous expansion of most portal areas, with or without short fibrous septa F3 Fibrous expansion of most portal areas, with occasional portal to portal bridging F4 Fibrous expansion of portal areas, with marked bridging (portal to portal as well as portal to central) F5 Marked bridging (portal to portal and/or portal to central) with occasional nodules (incomplete cirrhosis) F6 Cirrhosis probable or definite
SecondaryNumber of Participants With At Least a One Stage Reduction From Baseline in Ishak Fibrosis Score12 months
At least a one stage reduction from baseline in Ishak Fibrosis Stage. Score F0 No fibrosis F1 Fibrous expansion of some portal areas, with or without short fibrous septa F2 Fibrous expansion of most portal areas, with or without short fibrous septa F3 Fibrous expansion of most portal areas, with occasional portal to portal bridging F4 Fibrous expansion of portal areas, with marked bridging (portal to portal as well as portal to central) F5 Marked bridging (portal to portal and/or portal to central) with occasional nodules (incomplete cirrhosis) F6 Cirrhosis probable or definite

SecondaryflCK18/M65 Change From BaselineBaseline and 24 monthsMechanistic biomarker of liver function
SecondaryIshak Modification of Knodell Histological Activity Index - Interface Hepatitis24 months
The Ishak modification of Knodell histological activity index was determined by liver biopsy. Interface hepatitis * 0 = None * 1 = Mild (local, few portal areas) * 2 = Mild/moderate (focal, most portal areas) * 3 = Moderate (continuous around \<50% of tracts or septa) * 4 = Severe (continuous around \>50% of tracts or septa)
SecondaryIshak Modification of Knodell Histological Index - Confluent Necrosis24 months
The Ishak modification of Knodell histological activity index will be determined by liver biopsy. The four items and their categorizations scores include: • confluent necrosis * 0 = None * 1 = Focal confluent necrosis * 2 = Zone 3 necrosis in some areas * 3 = Zone 3 necrosis in most areas * 4 = Zone 3 necrosis + occasional portal-central bridging * 5 = Zone 3 necrosis + multiple portal-central bridging * 6 = Panacinar or multiacinar necrosis
