Alcohol Associated Hepatitis Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, Dose-escalation, Proof-of-Concept Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of INT-787 in Subjects With Severe Alcohol Associated Hepatitis
The purpose of this trial is to assess dose related safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of INT-787 in participants with severe alcohol-associated hepatitis (sAH).
This is a Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation, proof-of-concept study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and PK of INT-787 in participants, initially admitted to the hospital, with severe alcohol-associated hepatitis (sAH). The study aims to demonstrate and provide rationale for the selection of optimal dose(s) of INT-787 in the target population of participants with sAH. INT-787 will be evaluated for safety and tolerability prior to dose escalation. Overall efficacy, compared to placebo, will be assessed for each dose cohort. Additionally, PK measurements at various study timepoints will allow the Sponsor to better understand the systemic exposure of INT-787 and the relationship between exposure and efficacy and safety. Such insights in participants with more advanced liver disease will provide valuable information for future clinical trials of INT-787. The placebo-treated participants will provide important natural history information on outcomes in this participant population with sAH treated with supportive care. The placebo-treated participants within cohorts are meant to blind the study drug administration while the data across dose cohorts will be used in the overall analysis. ;
