Brief Summary

This phase 1b, Open-Label Study is to assess the safety, efficacy of miricorilant in patients with presumed Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)

Detailed Description

This phase 1b, Open-Label Study will assess the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK) of miricorilant in patients with presumed Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH).

Patients who meet the criteria for the study CORT-118335-861 will be enrolled on Day 1 into 1 of 11 cohorts and receive:

* Cohort 1 - a daily dose of 150 mg of miricorilant over 24 weeks.

* Cohort 2 - a daily dose of 150 mg of miricorilant over 12 weeks.

* Cohort 3 - a daily dose of 100 mg of miricorilant over 2 weeks, followed by 10 weeks of dosing at 100 mg miricorilant every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

* Cohort 4 - a daily dose of 100 mg of miricorilant over 2 weeks, followed by 10 weeks of dosing at 100 mg miricorilant every Monday and Friday.

* Cohort 5 - a thrice weekly dose of 100 mg of miricorilant over 12 weeks every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

* Cohort 6 - a twice weekly dose of 100 mg of miricorilant over 12 weeks every Monday and Friday.

* Cohort 7 - a daily dose of 50 mg of miricorilant over 12 weeks.

* Cohort 8 - a daily dose of 100 mg of miricorilant over 12 weeks.

* Cohort 9 - a daily dose of 30 mg of miricorilant over 12 weeks.

* Cohort 10 - a once weekly dose of 200 mg of miricorilant over 12 weeks.

* Cohort 11 - a twice weekly dose of 150 mg miricorilant over 12 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Relative change from Baseline in liver-fat content assessed by MRI-PDFF compared to Baseline.Baseline Day 1 up to Week 24
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline in aspartate aminotransferase (AST).Baseline Day 1 up to Week 24
Change from Baseline in alanine aminotransferase (ALT).Baseline Day 1 up to Week 24
Change from Baseline in gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT).Baseline Day 1 up to Week 24
Change from baseline in enhanced liver fibrosis score (ELF).Baseline Day 1 up to Week 24

ELF numerical values are calculated from serum measurements of hyaluronic acid (HA), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1), and type III procollagen (PIIINP) using the formula: ELF score = 2.494 + 0.846 In \[HA\] + 0.735 In \[PIIINP\] + 0.391 In \[TIMP-1\], and range on a continuous scale. Liver fibrosis is unlikely with scores \<6.7 and increasingly likely with higher scores.
