Description
Summary
This study will determine the effect of oral 80 mg resmetirom administered once daily on participants with well-compensated non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) cirrhosis by measuring the time to experiencing a Composite Clinical Outcome event.
Official Title
A Randomized Double-blind Placebo-controlled Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Effect of Resmetirom on Liver-related Outcomes in Patients With Well-compensated (Child-Pugh A) Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) Cirrhosis (MAESTRO-NASH-OUTCOMES)
Details
This is a multi-national, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study in participants with well-compensated NASH cirrhosis. Participants will be randomized 3:1 in a blinded manner to receive 80 mg resmetirom or matching placebo given orally once daily in the morning for the duration of the study (until the required number of Composite Clinical Outcome events are achieved). Composite Clinical Outcome events are defined as any of the following: all cause mortality, liver transplant, and significant hepatic events, including potential hepatic decompensation events (ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, or gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage), and confirmed increase of Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score from <12 to ≥15. The study comprises an up to 60-day screening period and an approximately 3-year treatment period.
