简要总结

CORT118335-862 is a Phase 2b, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study in patients with biopsy confirmed or presumed non-cirrhotic MASH to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and PK of miricorilant. The study will be conducted in 2 cohorts (Cohort A and Cohort B). Cohort A will include approximately 150 patients with biopsy-confirmed non-cirrhotic (F2-3) MASH. Cohort B will include approximately 75 patients with presumed non-cirrhotic MASH. The study will be conducted across 30 centers in India. The duration of study drug is 48 weeks for Cohort A subjects whereas it is maximum up to 24 weeks for Cohort B subjects. The drug (Miricorilant or Placebo Tablet) is administered orally twice weekly in the ratio of 2:1 in both Cohort A and B subjects.
