Overview

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if CS060380 tablets works to treat non-alcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH) in adults.It will also learn about the safety of CS060380 tablets.The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • After 12 weeks of administration, what was the percentage change in fat content evaluated by MRI-PDFF compared to the baseline?
  • What medical problems do participants have when taking CS060380 tablets? Researchers will compare CS060380 tablets to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if CS060380 tablets works to treat NASH.

Participants will:

  • Take CS060380 tablets or a placebo every day for 12 weeks
  • Visit the clinic for checkups and tests at the frequency required by the protocol
  • Keep a diary of their symptoms and the number of tablets taken

Description

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled Phase IIa clinical trial to evaluate CS060380 tablets in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

Subjects who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to study group A at 0.25mg, study group B at 0.5mg, and placebo group, with a planned inclusion of 20 subjects in each group. They will take the investigational product on an empty stomach once a day at a fixed time as much as possible for 12 consecutive weeks.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Men or women aged 18 to 70 (including the boundary value). 2. Liver biopsy results within 6 months prior to randomization were consistent with the pathological diagnosis of NASH, and the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (NAS) was ≥4 points, with at least 1 point each for inflammation and balloon changes, and the fibrosis stage of the Clinical Study Network for Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH-CRN) in the United States was F1-F3; Or magnetic resonance proton density fat content measurement (MRI-PDFF) within 3 months prior to randomization confirmed that the liver fat content was ≥10%. 3. Participants with fertility and their spouses or partners voluntarily took effective contraceptive measures from screening to within 3 months after the last administration. Among them, women of childbearing age include premenopausal women and women within two years after menopause, except those who have undergone hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy or have medically confirmed ovarian failure. 4.

If the ALT or AST value during the screening period is greater than 1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN), there must be two consecutive stable evidences before randomization (with an interval of at least 2 weeks between the two evaluations), and one of the following evidences must be met: * Compared with the historical data within 2 weeks to 3 months before randomization (if any, and the value ≤5×ULN), the ALT or AST value during the screening period needs to increase by ≤30% compared with the historical data. * If there is no available historical data and the ALT or AST value during the screening period is greater than 1.5×ULN, the test should be repeated at least once every two weeks. The ALT or AST value after re-testing should increase by no more than 30% compared to the screening period. 5. Avoid strenuous exercise at least 24 hours before each visit or blood draw. 6.

Individuals who have donated blood within the past 3 months prior to screening, and those who have lost a total of 400 mL or more due to blood donation or other reasons within the past 6 months. 9. Merge with any of the following serious cardiovascular disease or surgical histories (including but not limited to): 1. Unstable angina pectoris occurred within 3 months prior to randomization. 2. Combined heart failure, NYHA ≥ Ⅲ 3. Myocardial infarction, shock or life-threatening arrhythmia occurred within 6 months prior to randomization. 4.

Combined with serious diseases such as circulatory, respiratory, urinary, hematological, immune, psychiatric, neurological, and renal disorders, it has been determined by the researchers that it is not suitable to participate in this study. 5.
