A Study of NST-6179 in Subjects with Intestinal Failure-Associated Liver Disease (IFALD).

Description

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.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility 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
  • 1. liver enzymes (ALP, AST, ALT, or GGT ≥1.5 × upper limit of normal \[ULN\]) for ≥6 months and/or
  • 2. total bilirubin \> ULN for ≥6 months.
  • * Laboratory parameters consistent with stable liver disease without cirrhosis as defined by:
  • 1. ALT and AST \<5 × ULN;
  • 2. Total bilirubin ≤2.5 mg/dL in the absence of Gilbert's Syndrome.
  • 3. Serum albumin ≥2.5 g/dL;
  • 4. International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.3 in the absence of anticoagulant therapy;
  • 5. Platelet count ≥120,000/mm3.
  • * 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.
