Clinical Trial Summary

This study is an open labelled Phase I/II clinical trial, designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an oral cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor antagonist, proglumide, at escalating doses in subjects with NASH. An extended use protocol has been approved for subjects completing this study that show benefit or are at risk of Liver disease progression to continue on Proglumide at 1200 mg / day for an additional 3-9 months. Subjects in the extended protocol will have telephone visits monthly and in the research unit every 3 months for safety lab tests and research blood for fibrosis analysis.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a Phase 1single ascending dose study in 18 patients with ultrasound evidence of fatty liver disease AND increased hepatic transaminases. Proglumide will be using the single ascending dose study design in a Phase 1 fashion to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). Dose levels of proglumide will be: 400mg BID (twice daily); 400 mg TID (three times daily); 800 mg BID (twice daily). Six patients will be enrolled in each cohort starting with the lowest dose of 400mg po BID (Twice daily)for 12 weeks. Patients will be monitored for safety and toxicity by laboratory blood testing, physical examinations. Blood level for proglumide will be done at before proglumide at screening or baseline, week 2 and then week 4 and week 12. Safety and toxicity will be monitored using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v 5 and 'efficacy 'of the treatment will be evaluated by assessment of liver enzymes and fibroscan. The Phase 1 study design, we will follow the dose escalation scheme, where the dose increases after 6 subjects if a drug limiting toxicity (DLT) does not occur. ;
