Study of TVB-2640 in Subjects With Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
- Conditions
- Metabolic Dysfunction-assocated Steatohepatitis/ Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
- Interventions
- Other: Placebo
- Registration Number
- NCT04906421
- Lead Sponsor
- Sagimet Biosciences Inc.
- Brief Summary
This is a Phase 2, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy on TVB-2640 in subjects with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Subjects will be randomly assigned toTVB-2640 or matching placebo PO QD for 52 weeks, with the first dose administered on Day 1.
- Detailed Description
The indication nonalcoholic steatohepatitis \[NASH\]) is now referred to as metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and is characterized by hepatocyte necrosis, chronic inflammation, and resultant fibrosis formation.

Must have liver stiffness measurement ≥8.5 kPa measured by FibroScan and CAP score measured by FibroScan ≥280 dB/m during the Screening period.
-
Histologic confirmation of NASH: must have had prior liver biopsy within 180 days before randomization (randomization is within 24 hours of Baseline [Day1]) with fibrosis stage F2-F3 and a NAS of ≥4 with at least a score of 1 in each of the following NAS components: steatosis, ballooning degeneration, and lobular inflammation.
- History of harmful alcohol intake for a period of more than 3 consecutive months within 1 year prior to Screening in the judgement of the Investigator.

Note that previous COVID-19 infection alone is not exclusionary and vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is allowed. Infection and/or vaccination must be documented.
- Uncontrolled T2DM, defined as HbA1c ≥9.5% at Screening.
- Presence of cirrhosis on liver histology (stage 4 fibrosis), according to the judgement of the central reader, and/or cross sectional imaging evidence consistent with cirrhosis and/or portal hypertension.
- Use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists or a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, unless on a stable daily dose for at least 6 months prior to the Screening visit date, or on a complex oral anti-diabetic (OAD) regimen (3 or more OADs [except for a GLP-1 agonist or an SGLT2 inhibitor]), unless on a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to the Screening visit date.
- Subjects with active or quiescent chronic liver disease of etiologies other than NASH (eg, viral or autoimmune hepatitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, primary biliary cholangitis, and 'autoimmune hepatitis-overlap' syndromes, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency, alcohol-related liver disease, drug-induced liver disease, and/or infiltrative conditions [eg, sarcoidosis]).
- Current or historic clinically evident hepatic decompensation event (eg, ascites formation, variceal hemorrhage, hepatic encephalopathy).
- Any subject who has sustained a clinically evident cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and/or peripheral vascular event during the 12 months prior to anticipated Baseline (Day 1) visit date is not eligible for study participation.

Group Intervention Description Placebo Placebo Subjects will receive matching placebo PO QD for 52 weeks, with the first dose administered on Day 1. TVB-2640 50 mg TVB-2640 Subjects will receive TVB-2640 PO QD for 52 weeks, with the first dose administered on Day 1.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Histological Improvement in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) Activity Score (NAS) Without Worsening of Fibrosis (by NASH Clinical Research Network [CRN] Fibrosis Score). 52 Weeks Histological improvement is defined as ≥2 points improvement in NAS with ≥1 point improvement in ballooning or inflammation
Subjects With Resolution of Steatohepatitis and No Worsening of Liver Fibrosis by NASH CRN Fibrosis Score and Histological Improvement in NAS. 52 Weeks NASH resolution defined as absence of fatty liver disease or isolated or simple steatosis without steatohepatitis and a score of either 0 or 1 for inflammation, 0 for ballooning and any value for steatosis and no worsening of liver fibrosis (by NASH CRN fibrosis score). Histological improvement defined as ≥2 point improvement in NAS (with ≥1 point improvement in ballooning or inflammation).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of Subjects Experiencing Fibrosis Improvement of ≥1 Stage by NASH CRN Score Without Worsening of Steatohepatitis 52 Weeks Proportion of subjects experiencing fibrosis improvement of ≥1 stage by NASH CRN score Without worsening of steatohepatitis (defined as no increase in NAS for ballooning, inflammation, or steatosis) at 52 weeks.
Proportion of Subjects Experiencing Resolution of Steatohepatitis and no Worsening of Liver Fibrosis (by NASH CRN Fibrosis Score) 52 Weeks Resolution of steatohepatitis is defined as absence of fatty liver disease or isolated or simple steatosis without steatohepatitis and a NAS of 0 or 1 for inflammation, 0 for ballooning, and any value for steatosis.
Proportion of Subjects With Improvement in Liver Fibrosis >=1 Stage by NASH CRN Fibrosis Score Without Worsening of Steatohepatitis at 52 Weeks OR Resolution of Steatohepatitis and No Worsening of Liver Fibrosis by NASH CRN Fibrosis Score 52 Weeks No increase in NAS for ballooning, inflammation or steatosis.
