Official title

A Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Orziloben (NST-6179) in Subjects With Intestinal Failure-Associated Liver Disease (IFALD)

Overview

This is a phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NST-6179 in subjects with intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) receiving parenteral nutrition (PN). The study will be conducted in 2 sequential parts. Up to 36 subjects diagnosed with IFALD will be enrolled in the study, of which up to 18 subjects will be enrolled in each of the 2 parts and randomized (2:1) to receive NST-6179 (N=12/part) or matched placebo (N=6/part). Subjects in Part A will receive once daily (QD) oral administration of 800 mg (32 mL solution) NST-6179 or placebo for 4 weeks. The NST-6179 dose for Part B is planned to be 1200 mg QD for 12 weeks. Actual dose, however, will be determined during the safety review meeting.

Interventions

  • Drug NST-6179 Part A
    Once daily (QD) oral administration of 800mg (32 mL solution) of NST-6179 for 4 weeks
  • Drug NST-6179 Part B
    Once daily (QD) oral administration of 1200mg of NST-6179 for 12 weeks
  • Other Matched Placebo
    Matched placebo for administration in Part A or Part B

Primary outcome measures

  • To assess the safety and tolerability of NST-6179 [Time frame: Up to 14 Weeks]
  • To assess the pharmacokinetics of NST-6179 [Time frame: Day 1 and Day 14]
  • To assess the pharmacodynamic effects of NST-6179 on hepatic steatosis [Time frame: 12 weeks]
  • To assess the pharmacodynamic effects of NST-6179 on hepatic inflammation [Time frame: 12 weeks]
  • To assess the pharmacodynamic effects of NST-6179 on hepatic cholestasis (bilirubin, ALP, GGT) [Time frame: 12 weeks]
  • To assess the pharmacodynamic effects of NST-6179 on hepatic fibrosis (ELF, Pro-C3, FIB-4) [Time frame: 12 weeks]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Adult persons aged 16 years or older at the time of informed consent.
  • Minimum of 6 months on Parenteral supplementation.
  • Established clinical diagnosis of IFALD based on a persistent elevation of
  • liver enzymes (ALP, AST, ALT, or GGT ≥1.5 × upper limit of normal \[ULN\]) for ≥6 months and/or
  • total bilirubin > ULN for ≥6 months.
  • Laboratory parameters consistent with stable liver disease without cirrhosis as defined by:
  • ALT and AST <5 × ULN;
  • Total bilirubin ≤2.5 mg/dL in the absence of Gilbert's Syndrome.
  • Serum albumin ≥2.5 g/dL;
  • International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.3 in the absence of anticoagulant therapy;
  • Platelet count ≥120,000/mm3.

Exclusion criteria

  • Clinical, laboratory, imaging, or histopathologic evidence of other causes of acute or chronic liver disease, including autoimmune, viral, metabolic, or alcoholic liver disease.
  • Clinical evidence of compensated or decompensated hepatic cirrhosis as assessed by historical liver histology, ultrasound-based and/or signs and symptoms of hepatic decompensation (including, but not limited to, jaundice, ascites, variceal hemorrhage, and/or hepatic encephalopathy).
  • Presence of hepatic impairment, end-stage liver disease, and/or a model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score >12.
  • Transient elastography read >20.0 kPA within 3 months prior to or during the Screening Period.
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 mL/min based on the 2021 CKD-EPI creatinine equation.
  • Poor nutritional status defined as body mass index (BMI) <17 kg/m2.
