You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:
- Conditions: Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
-
Age: 100 years or below
-
Gender: All
The purpose of this study is to investigate how safe and effective an investigational medication may be in delaying certain medical conditions or health-related issues in patients with Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis. NASH is a liver disease characterized by inflammation and damage caused by a buildup of fat in the liver, which can lead to fibrosis, or scarring of the liver tissue.
Participants in this study will receive either the investigational medication or a placebo. A placebo is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medication but does not contain any medicine. The study will monitor the participants' health to determine the effects of the medication on delaying the progression of liver-related health issues.
- Who can participate: Participants aged 18 years and older with a diagnosis of Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis may be eligible for this study. Key eligibility factors include liver biopsy confirmation and stable medical conditions.
- Study details: Participants will be assigned to receive either the investigational medication or a placebo. A placebo is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medication but does not contain any medicine.
