入选标准

  • Males and non-pregnant, non-lactating females between 18 - 75 years of age inclusive, based on the date of the screening visit.
  • Previous history or presence of 2 out of 4 components of metabolic syndrome (obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, elevated fasting glucose) or type 2 diabetes.
  • FibroScan measurement > 8.5 kPa [kilopascal].
  • Biopsy-proven NASH. Must have had a liver biopsy obtained ≤ 180 days prior to randomization with fibrosis stage 2 to 3 and a non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) activity score (NAS) of ≥ 4 with at least a score of 1 in each of the following NAS components:
  • Steatosis (scored 0 to 3),
  • Ballooning degeneration (scored 0 to 2), and
  • Lobular inflammation (scored 0 to 3).

排除标准

  • Weight loss > 5% in the 3 months prior to screening until randomization or from the time of the diagnostic liver biopsy until randomization, whichever is longer.
  • Presence of cirrhosis on liver biopsy (stage 4 fibrosis).
  • Type 1 or uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes.
  • Other inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply.
