| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participant With Hepatic Histological Improvement in NAS by ≥ 2 Points With at Least 1-Point Reduction in Either Lobular Inflammation or Hepatocellular Ballooning and no Concurrent Worsening of Fibrosis at Year 1 | Year 1 | Hepatic histological improvement in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Activity Score (NAS) at Year 1 was defined as a decrease (improvement) in NAS by ≥ 2 with at least a 1-point reduction in either lobular inflammation or hepatocellular ballooning and with no concurrent worsening of fibrosis stage. The NAS was derived as the unweighted sum of steatosis (0 to 3), lobular inflammation (0 to 3), and hepatocellular ballooning (0 to 2) scores. The NAS ranges from 0-8 with the higher score indicating more aggressive disease. Evaluation of fibrosis stage was based on the nonalcoholic steatohepatitis clinical research network (NASH CRN) fibrosis staging system, which was scaled from 0 to 4 stages where, 0=None to 4=Cirrhosis. Worsening of fibrosis stage was defined as progression of NASH CRN fibrosis stage. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Complete Resolution of Steatohepatitis With no Concurrent Worsening of Fibrosis Stage and Improvement in Fibrosis by at Least 1 Stage (NASH CRN System) and no Worsening of Steatohepatitis at Year 1 | Year 1 | Complete resolution of steatohepatitis was defined as histopathologic interpretation of no fatty liver disease, or simple or isolated steatosis with no steatohepatitis. As per NASH CRN system, no worsening of steatohepatitis was defined as no worsening of lobular inflammation or hepatocellular ballooning grade. The evaluation of fibrosis stage associated with NASH was based on the NASH CRN fibrosis staging system which was scaled from 0 to 4 stages where, 0=None to 4=Cirrhosis. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Complete Resolution of Steatohepatitis With no Concurrent Worsening of Fibrosis Stage and Improvement in Fibrosis by at Least 1 Stage (NASH CRN System) and no Worsening of Steatohepatitis at Year 2 | Year 2 | Complete resolution of steatohepatitis was defined as histopathologic interpretation of no fatty liver disease, or simple or isolated steatosis with no steatohepatitis. As per NASH CRN system, no worsening of steatohepatitis was defined as no worsening of lobular inflammation or hepatocellular ballooning grade. The evaluation of fibrosis stage associated with NASH was based on the NASH CRN fibrosis staging system which was scaled from 0 to 4 stages where, 0=None to 4=Cirrhosis. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Complete Resolution of Steatohepatitis With no Concurrent Worsening of Fibrosis Stage at Year 1 | Year 1 | Complete resolution of steatohepatitis was defined as histopathologic interpretation of no fatty liver disease, or simple or isolated steatosis with no steatohepatitis. As per NASH CRN system, no worsening of steatohepatitis was defined as no worsening of lobular inflammation or hepatocellular ballooning grade. The evaluation of fibrosis stage associated with NASH was based on the NASH CRN fibrosis staging system which was scaled from 0 to 4 stages where, 0=None to 4=Cirrhosis. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Complete Resolution of Steatohepatitis With no Concurrent Worsening of Fibrosis Stage at Year 2 | Year 2 | Complete resolution of steatohepatitis was defined as histopathologic interpretation of no fatty liver disease, or simple or isolated steatosis with no steatohepatitis. As per NASH CRN system, no worsening of steatohepatitis was defined as no worsening of lobular inflammation or hepatocellular ballooning grade. The evaluation of fibrosis stage associated with NASH was based on the NASH CRN fibrosis staging system which was scaled from 0 to 4 stages where, 0=None to 4=Cirrhosis. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Improvement in Fibrosis by at Least 1 Stage (NASH CRN System) and no Worsening of Steatohepatitis at Year 1 | Year 1 | The evaluation of fibrosis stage associated with NASH was based on the NASH CRN Fibrosis Staging System which was scaled from 0 to 4 stages where, 0=None to 4=Cirrhosis. As per NASH CRN system, no worsening of steatohepatitis was defined as no worsening of lobular inflammation or hepatocellular ballooning grade. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Improvement in Fibrosis by at Least 1 Stage (NASH CRN System) and no Worsening of Steatohepatitis at Year 2 | Year 2 | The evaluation of fibrosis stage associated with NASH was based on the NASH CRN Fibrosis Staging System which was scaled from 0 to 4 stages where, 0=None to 4=Cirrhosis. As per NASH CRN system, no worsening of steatohepatitis was defined as no worsening of lobular inflammation or hepatocellular ballooning grade. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Deaths, Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), TEAEs Leading Study Drug to Discontinuation | Years 1 and 2 | A TEAE was defined as any adverse event that started or worsened on or after the start of the study medication and up to 30 days after the discontinuation of the study medication. An SAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, results in death, was life threatening, requires hospitalization or results in prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, or was a congenital anomaly/birth defect. |
