Change in HOMA-IR |
Change in homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) from Baseline to Week 18. The higher the HOMA-IR score, the more insulin resistant a person is. Values of <1 are considered optimal while values >2.9 indicate significant insulin resistance. |

Change in ELF Score |
Change in the enhanced liver fibrosis (ELF) score. The ELF score is calculated using a published algorithm combining the values of a set of extracellular matrix markers, including TIMP-1, PIIINP, and HA. The ELF score has been reported to show good correlations with fibrosis stages in chronic liver disease, with higher ELF scores associated with higher fibrosis stages. The ELF score is hence used as a prognostic marker for disease progression: ELF score < 9.8 : Low risk of progression, ELF score 9.8 to < 11.3 : Moderate risk of progression and ELF score > = 11.3 : High risk of progression. |

Number of Participants Reporting an Adverse Events From Baseline Through Week 18 |
AEs were mapped to MedDRA version 20.1 preferred term (PT) and system organ class (SOC). If the subject experienced multiple events that mapped to a single preferred term, the greatest severity grade according to CTCAE Version 4.0, and strongest investigator assessment of relation to study medication was assigned to the preferred term. If an event had a missing severity or relationship, it was classified as having the highest severity and/or strongest relationship to study medication. The occurrence of TEAEs was summarized by treatment group by SOC, PT, and severity. Separate summaries of treatment-emergent serious adverse events (SAEs), TEAEs related to study drug, severe or life threatening TEAEs, and TEAEs leading to the discontinuation of study treatment were generated. Additionally, the occurrence of liver-specific AEs was summarized by treatment group. All reported adverse events were listed for individual subjects showing verbatim term, PT and SOC. |
Adverse events were collected from the time the subject signed the informed consent form through the date of the last visit for a specific subject, that is, approximately 24 weeks in total for a completed subject. |
