Registered outcomes4
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants Who Achieved ≥ 1-Stage Improvement in Fibrosis Without Worsening of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) at Week 72 in Semaglutide (SEMA) + Cilofexor/Firsocostat (CILO/FIR) Fixed Dose Combination (FDC) Versus Placebo Groups | Week 72 | Fibrosis improvement was defined as ≥ 1-stage decrease from baseline in fibrosis according to the NASH clinical research network (CRN) classification. Worsening of NASH was defined as ≥ 1-point increase from baseline in hepatocellular ballooning or lobular inflammation. Clopper-Pearson method was used in outcome measure analysis in each arm. Percentages were rounded-off. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Who Achieved ≥1-Stage Improvement in Fibrosis Without Worsening of NASH at Week 72 in SEMA + CILO/FIR FDC Versus SEMA Alone | Week 72 | Fibrosis improvement was defined as ≥ 1-stage decrease from baseline in fibrosis according to the NASH CRN classification. Worsening of NASH was defined as ≥ 1-point increase from baseline in hepatocellular ballooning or lobular inflammation. Clopper-Pearson method was used in outcome measure analysis in each arm. Percentages were rounded-off. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With NASH Resolution Without Worsening in Fibrosis at Week 72 in SEMA + CILO/FIR FDC Versus Placebo Groups | Week 72 | NASH resolution is defined as lobular inflammation of 0 or 1 and hepatocellular ballooning of 0. Worsening in fibrosis was defined as a change in fibrosis worsening stage as per NASH CRN criteria. Clopper-Pearson method was used in outcome measure analysis in each arm. Percentages were rounded-off. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With NASH Resolution Without Worsening in Fibrosis In Participants Treated With SEMA + CILO/FIR FDC Versus CILO/FIR Alone Groups | Week 72 | NASH resolution is defined as lobular inflammation of 0 or 1 and hepatocellular ballooning of 0. Worsening in fibrosis was defined as a change in fibrosis worsening stage as per NASH CRN criteria. Clopper-Pearson method was used in outcome measure analysis in each arm. Percentages were rounded-off. |
