NCT05824156

Brief Summary

This phase 2a study is a multi-center, double-blind randomized, placebo-controlled study. The study is designed to determine the safety and tolerability of the anti-human CCL24 monoclonal antibody CM-101 in adult patients with non-cirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients with stage 1c, 2 or 3 fibrosis. The patients will be randomized to 1 of 2 treatment groups: 5 mg/kg CM-101 or placebo.

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histological confirmation of steatohepatitis and fibrosis without cirrhosis on a diagnostic liver biopsy obtained within the 18 months prior to the start of treatment, and/or during the screening period with:
  • a. NAS ≥ 4 with a score of at least 1 for each component (steatosis, ballooning degeneration and lobular inflammation) and b. Hepatic fibrosis stage F1c, 2 or 3 as defined by the NASH CRN scoring scale. F1c subjectspatients must have either: PRO-C3 \>14 ng/ml or Liver stiffness value of \>8.0 kPa measured by transient elastography
  • Patients with presence of greater than or equals to (≥) 10 percent (%) steatosis on MRI-derived proton-density fat-fraction (PDFF) performed as part of the screening procedure or within 12 weeks prior to randomization
  • Confirmation of disease status from time of biopsy by Transient Elastography performed during the screening period with liver stiffness value of 7-12 kPa.
  • Patients with presence of ≥1 of the following risk factors:
  • Obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m2),
  • Type 2 diabetes diagnosed per 2013 American Diabetes Association criteria,
  • HTN per 2017 AHA Guidelines for Hypertension,
  • ALT \>1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Patients with a stable body mass index (BMI) between 25- 45 kg/m², both inclusive. Body weight is required to be stable (i.e., not varying by \> 5% for at least 12 weeks) prior to study entry;
  • Patients on chronic medication must be on a stable regimen for ≥ 12 weeks prior to Randomization and should attempt to maintain a stable dosing regimen during the study period;
  • Patients must have the following laboratory parameters at screening:
  • Total bilirubin \< 1.5 mg/dL (26 micromol/L)
  • AST \< 5 x ULN
  • INR \< 1.3
  • +5 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with medical/surgical history of bariatric surgery procedures or bariatric device insertion or patients that are planned for such interventions;
  • Patients taking weight loss medications;
  • Evidence of drug induced steatohepatitis secondary to amiodarone, corticosteroids, estrogens, methotrexate, tetracycline, or other medications known to cause hepatic steatosis;
  • History or presence of cirrhosis (compensated or decompensated) determined by histology or relevant medical complications and laboratory parameters;
  • Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score \>12;
  • History of liver transplant, or current evaluation for or placement on a liver transplant waiting list;
  • Abnormal laboratory screening values:
  • Hemoglobin \< 12.0 g/dL in males and \< 11.0 g/dL in females
  • Platelet count \< 140,000/mm3
  • Total white blood cells (WBC) \< 3,000 cells/mm3
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \< 1,500 cells/mm3
  • Serum albumin \< 3.5 g/dL
  • Screening ECG demonstrating prolongation of QT interval corrected by Fredericia Correction Formula (QTcF) of \> 500 msec, or a history of clinically significant arrythmias
  • History of other chronic liver diseases including:
  • Alcoholic liver disease
  • +29 more criteria
