Summary

The study is designed to evaluate the effects of the combination of zibotentan and
dapagliflozin and dapagliflozin monotherapy versus placebo on the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) response in participants with cirrhosis with features of portal hypertension at 6 weeks of treatment.

Part A is to evaluate the absolute
change in HVPG at 6 weeks from baseline in participants treated with 2.5 mg zibotentan combined with 10 mg dapagliflozin versus placebo. The primary efficacy objective for Part B is to evaluate the proportion of participants treated with 1, 2.5, or 5 mg zibotentan combined with 10 mg dapagliflozin and 10 mg dapagliflozin monotherapy versus placebo achieving a ≥ 20% decrease in HVPG or a reduction to or below 12 mmHg in HVPG

Randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled and parallel group trial to investigate the effects of two doses (up-titration to a fixed dose regimen) of oral BI 685509 on portal hypertension after 24 weeks treatment in patients with clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) in compensated cirrhosis

Summary

In this Phase II trial the efficacy of treatment in patients with clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH), in compensated alcohol-related cirrhosis, will be assessed. This will be the first trial in the clinical development of the drug BI 685509 where patients will be treated for 24 weeks, and where the portal pressure will be assessed quantitatively via HVPG measurements. The trial will evaluate both short-term and long-term efficacy. The long-term assessment will be used to rule out any adaptation to sGC activation on portal pressure on chronic treatment. The trial will also provide supportive evidence for the planned Phase III development.

Summary

There is a new investigational drug called DUR-928. This study is being done to see if this investigational drug helps in the treatment of Alcoholic Hepatitis (AH).

The hope is that the use of DUR-928 will lead to lowering the MELD (Model for end-stage liver disease) score, some other liver blood tests, and then other symptoms of AH may get better.

The effect of semaglutide in subjects with non-cirrhotic non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out about the safety and effectiveness of an investigation drug called Semaglutide for the treatment of NASH. (Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis). NASH occurs when the fat buildup in the liver leads to inflammation (hepatitis) and scarring. NASH is associated with increased risk of morbidity (medical problem or complication) and mortality (death). Currently, treatment options are few and insufficient. There is therefore an unmet medical need for effective and safe pharmacological treatment options. The study is designed to last 257 weeks (approximately 4 years and 11 months), with study visits occurring approximately every 4 weeks. Most visits will include blood work and some will include assessments such as body weight and vital signs. Most visits will include reviewing of diary entries during the course of the study. This study also includes weekly injections of semaglutide (or placebo). Semaglutide is a self-administered injection that is given under the skin. Semaglutide has built an extensive amount of data with other trials that have focused on weight management and Type 2 diabetes. Semaglutide is FDA-approved for diabetes treatment, but is investigational for this study. In these previous trials, semaglutide was found to be safe and well-tolerated. This study is randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled. This means that you may receive the study drug or a placebo. Neither the study subject or the study team members will know which each subject will be receiving. Study subjects will be randomized 2:1. This means that subjects will have a greater chance (66%) of receiving the drug versus the placebo.
