ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryThe Percentage of Participants Who Achieve a ≥ 1-Stage Improvement in Fibrosis Without Worsening of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) at Week 48From first dose to 48 weeks after first dose
An improvement in fibrosis is defined as a decrease of fibrosis by ≥1-stage in the NASH Clinical Research Network (CRN) Fibrosis Score at week 48 in liver biopsy. Worsening of NASH is defined as an increase of the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (NAS) by ≥ 1-stage. Worsening of NASH is defined as an increase of the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) Activity Score (NAS) by ≥1 point. Worsening of fibrosis is defined as an increase of fibrosis by ≥1 point as determined by the NASH CRN Fibrosis Score.
SecondaryThe Percentage of Participants Who Achieve a ≥ 1-Stage Improvement in Ishak Fibrosis Score at Week 48From first dose to 48 weeks after first dose
An improvement in Ishak fibrosis is defined as a decrease of fibrosis by ≥ 1-stage in the Ishak fibrosis score at week 48 in liver biopsy. ISHAKs uses a 0-6 scale: 1: centrilobular pericellular fibrosis, 2: centrilobular and periportal fibrosis, 3: bridging fibrosis (few bridges), 4: bridging fibrosis (many bridges), 5: early or incomplete cirrhosis, 6: established or advanced cirrhosis.
SecondaryThe Percentage of Participants With Improvement in Fibrosis Without Worsening of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) or NASH Improvement at Week 48From first dose to 48 weeks after first dose
The percentage of participants who achieved a ≥1-stage improvement in fibrosis without worsening of NASH or NASH improvement with no worsening of fibrosis at week 48 in liver biopsy. Improvement in fibrosis is defined by the NASH Clinical Research Network (CRN) Fibrosis Score. Improvement in NASH is defined by a ≥2-stage decrease in the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (NAS). NASH CRN Fibrosis is staged on a 0-4 scale: 0 (none); 1 (perisinusoidal or periportal fibrosis); 2 (perisinusoidal and portal/periportal fibrosis); 3 (bridging fibrosis); 4 (cirrhosis).
SecondaryThe Percentage of Participants Who Achieved >=1 Point Improvement in Fibrosis at Week 48From first dose to 48 weeks after first dose
An improvement in fibrosis is defined as a decrease of ≥ 1-stage in the non-alcoholic steatohepatitis clinical research network (NASH CRN) Fibrosis Score at week 48 in liver biopsy. NASH CRN Fibrosis is staged on a 0-4 scale: 0 (none); 1 (perisinusoidal or periportal fibrosis); 2 (perisinusoidal and portal/periportal fibrosis); 3 (bridging fibrosis); 4 (cirrhosis).
SecondaryThe Percentage of Participants With Any Improvement in Collagen Proportionate Area (CPA) at Week 48From first dose to 48 weeks after first doseAn improvement in CPA is defined as any decrease in CPA at week 48 in liver biopsy.
SecondaryThe Percentage of Participants With Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) Resolution at Week 48From first dose to 48 weeks after first dose
NASH resolution defined by the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (NAS) component of ballooning = 0 and inflammation = 0-1 at week 48 in liver biopsy. Ballooning = 0 (none) inflammation = 0 (none) - 1 (Grade \<2).
SecondaryThe Percentage of Participants With Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) Improvement at Week 48From first dose to 48 weeks after first dose
The percentage of participants with NASH improvement at week 48 in liver biopsy. NASH improvement is defined as a reduction of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (NAS) by ≥ 2 points with contribution from \> 1 NAS component. The NASH CRN system assesses liver biopsies for degree of steatosis (0-3), lobular inflammation (0-3), hepatocellular ballooning (0-2), and fibrosis (0-4). The 3 categories are added together in an unweighted fashion to determine the NAS, which ranges from 0 to 8.
