A Study of NST-6179 in Adult Subjects With Intestinal Failure-Associated Liver Disease (IFALD).
Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT05919680
Purpose
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 adult subjects with intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) receiving parenteral nutrition (PN). The study will be conducted in 2 sequential parts. Up to 36 adult subjects diagnosed with IFALD will be enrolled in the study, of which 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.

Eligibility
Key Inclusion Criteria:
* Adult persons aged 18 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 ≤2.0 mg/dL in the absence of Gilbert's Syndrome.
3. Serum albumin ≥3 g/dL;
4. International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.3 in the absence of anticoagulant therapy;
5. Platelet count ≥120,000/mm3.
Key Exclusion Criteria:
* 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.
