Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT04048876
Lead Sponsor
Celgene
Brief Summary

This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, multinational, dose-finding study evaluating the efficacy of three treatment doses of CC-90001 compared with placebo, in Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) participants with Stage 2, Stage 3 liver fibrosis.

This study is designed to assess response to treatment on measures of fibrosis and other efficacy parameters. It will also assess dose response and overall safety.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Who Achieve a ≥1 Stage Improvement in Liver Fibrosis Using the NASH CRN Histological Scoring System at Week 52From baseline up to week 52

Percentage of participants who achieve a ≥1 stage improvement in liver fibrosis using the NASH CRN Histological Scoring System at Week 52. A participant with a change of ≤ -1 from baseline in fibrosis stage is considered as an improvement responder for this endpoint.

The NASH CRN Histologic Scoring System comprised:

steatosis (0 to 3) lobular inflammation (0 to 3) hepatocellular ballooning (0 to 2) fibrosis disease stage (0 to 4)

* Stage 0 - None;

* Stage 1a - Mild (delicate) zone 3 perisinusoidal fibrosis;

* Stage 1b - Moderate (dense) zone 3 perisinusoidal fibrosis;

* Stage 1c - Portal/periportal fibrosis only;

* Stage 2 - Zone 3 perisinusoidal fibrosis with portal/periportal fibrosis;

* Stage 3 - Bridging fibrosis;

* Stage 4 - Cirrhosis.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Change From Baseline of ECG Results - QTcB IntervalFrom baseline up to week 52

Mean change from baseline in QTcB interval

QT Interval: Ventricular depolarization plus ventricular repolarization Normal Range: 400 to 460 msec

QTc: QT interval corrected based on the patient's heart rate

QTcB: An electrocardiographic finding in which the QT interval corrected for heart rate using Bazzett's formula. QTc = QT/√(RR) RR= Respiration Rate

Percentage of Participants With Resolution of NASHFrom baseline up to week 52

Percentage of participants who demonstrate absence of ballooning, and lobular inflammation score of 0 or 1 at Week 52.

Absence of ballooning is defined as a score of 0 in hepatocellular ballooning. A participant with a score of 0 in ballooning, a score of 0 or 1 in lobular inflammation is considered as a responder for this endpoint.

TmaxDay 1 and at Week 4

Tmax is defined is the time to maximum plasma concentration

Mean Change From Baseline of ECG Results - PR IntervalsFrom baseline up to week 52

Mean change from baseline in PR interval

PR Interval: Atrial depolarization and conduction through the AV node Normal Range: 0.12 - 0.20 (120 to 200 msec)

Percentage of Participants Who Progressed to CirrhosisFrom baseline up to week 52

Percentage of participants who progressed to cirrhosis

CmaxDay 1 and at Week 4

Cmax is defined as maximum plasma concentration of the drug

AUC tDay 1 and at Week 4

Area under the plasma concentration time-curve. AUC over the dosing interval.

Apparent Total Body Clearance of the DrugAt Week 4

Apparent total body clearance of the drug (CL/F)

Mean Change From Baseline of ECG Results - QRS DurationFrom baseline up to week 52

Mean change from baseline in QRS duration QRS Duration: Ventricular depolarization and atrial repolarization Normal Range: 0.08 to 0.10 (80 to 100 msec)

Percentage of Participants With no Worsening of Steatohepatitis and ≥1 Stage Improvement in Liver Fibrosis Score at Week 52From baseline up to week 52

Percentage of participants with no worsening of steatohepatitis and ≥1 stage improvement in liver fibrosis score at week 52 using the NASH CRN Histological Scoring System at Week 52. A participant with a change of ≥ -1 from baseline in fibrosis stage and no worsening in steatohepatitis is considered as an improvement responder for this endpoint.

The NASH CRN Histologic Scoring System comprised:

steatosis (0 to 3) lobular inflammation (0 to 3) hepatocellular ballooning (0 to 2) fibrosis disease stage (0 to 4)

* Stage 0 - None;

* Stage 1a - Mild (delicate) zone 3 perisinusoidal fibrosis;

Percentage of participants with an improvement of ≥ 2 points in the total NAS with improvement in more than one category of steatosis, lobular inflammation, and hepatocellular ballooning, and no worsening of liver fibrosis at Week 52. A participant with a change of ≤ -2 from baseline in total NAS, a change of ≤ -1 from baseline in more than one subscore, and a change of ≤ 0 from baseline in fibrosis stage is considered as a responder for this endpoint.

Mean change from baseline in QTcF interval

QT Interval: Ventricular depolarization plus ventricular repolarization Normal Range: 400 to 460 msec

QTc: QT interval corrected based on the patient's heart rate

QTcF: An electrocardiographic finding in which the QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula. QTc = QT/∛(RR) RR = Respiration rate

Percentage of Participants With Resolution of NASH With no Worsening of Liver FibrosisFrom baseline up to week 52

Percentage of participants who demonstrate absence of ballooning, and lobular inflammation score of 0 or 1 and no worsening of liver fibrosis at Week 52

Absence of ballooning is defined as a score of 0 in hepatocellular ballooning. Worsening of fibrosis stage was defined as progression of NASH CRN fibrosis stage. A participant with a score of 0 in ballooning, a score of 0 or 1 in lobular inflammation, and a change of ≤ 0 from baseline in fibrosis stage is considered as a responder for this endpoint.

Mean Change From Baseline in Metabolic ParametersFrom baseline up to week 52
