A Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Pegozafermin in Participants With MASH and Fibrosis (ENLIGHTEN-Fibrosis)

April 25, 2024 updated by: 89bio, Inc.

A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Pegozafermin in Subjects With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) and Fibrosis

The study will assess the efficacy and safety of 2 dose regimens of pegozafermin for the treatment of liver fibrosis stage 2 or 3 in adult participants with MASH (previously known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis [NASH]).

Description

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Males or non-pregnant females aged between 18 and 75 years (inclusive) at time of signing the informed consent form (ICF)
  • Biopsy-confirmed MASH (previously named NASH) with fibrosis stage F2 or F3 per NASH CRN System and NAS ≥4, with a score of at least 1 in each of steatosis, ballooning degeneration, and lobular inflammation (qualifying biopsy must be either within 6 months of screening visit [with additional requirements] or obtained during screening period)
  • Body mass index (BMI) at screening ≥25.0 (≥23 for Asian participants) and <50.0 kilograms (kg)/meters squared (m^2)

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Chronic liver diseases other than MASH/NASH
  • History or evidence of cirrhosis on screening liver biopsy
  • Have type 1 diabetes or poorly controlled type 2 diabetes
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥250 units per liter (U/L)
  • Participants taking vitamin E (>400 international units [IU]/day) must be on stable dose for at least 6 months prior to screening

Other inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of Participants With at Least an Improvement of Fibrosis ≥1 Stage Without Worsening of MASH/NASH at Week 52
Time Frame: Week 52
Worsening of NASH is defined as increase in NAFLD Activity Score (NAS) for ballooning, inflammation, or steatosis
Week 52
Proportion of Participants With MASH/NASH Resolution Without Worsening of Fibrosis at Week 52
Time Frame: Week 52
Resolution of NASH is defined as total absence of ballooning (score=0) and absent or mild inflammation (score 0 to 1). Worsening of fibrosis is defined as progression of fibrosis by ≥1 stage.
Week 52
