Brief summary
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, abbreviated as NASH, is a chronic liver disease that may progress to cirrhosis. The disease is mostly associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus, or insulin resistance and is very common. However, Treatment of NASH is a significant unmet clinical need. IVA337 (lanifibranor) is a next generation pan-PPAR (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors) agonist addressing the pathophysiology of NASH : metabolic, inflammatory and fibrotic. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of two doses of IVA337 (800mg, 1200 mg) per day for 24 weeks versus placebo in adult NASH patients with liver steatosis and moderate to severe necroinflammation without cirrhosis.
Detailed description
Randomized (stratified on diabetes), placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-assignment, dose-range multicenter study There are 3 parallel treatment groups: placebo, IVA337 800mg once a day (Quaque Die, QD) and IVA337 1200mg QD (identical tablets of 400mg IVA337 or placebo). Both, patient and investigator are blinded. For each patient, the study duration will be an overall of 6 to 8 months (with a 10-day to 4-week selection period, a 24-week treatment period and a 4-week follow-up period).

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Adult subjects, age ≥18 years. * NASH histological diagnosis according to the currently accepted definition of both EASL and AASLD, requiring the combined presence of steatosis (any degree ≥ 5%) + lobular inflammation of any degree + liver cell ballooning of any amount, on a liver biopsy performed ≤ 6 months before screening in the study or at screening and confirmed by central reading during the screening period and * SAF Activity score of 3 or 4 (\>2) * SAF Steatosis score ≥ 1 * SAF Fibrosis score \< 4 * Subject agrees to have a liver biopsy performed after 24 weeks of treatment. * Compensated liver disease * No other causes of chronic liver disease (autoimmune, primary biliary cholangitis, Hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), Wilson's, α-1-antitrypsin deficiency, hemochromatosis, etc…). * If applicable, have a stable type 2 diabetes, defined as HbA1c ≤ 8.5% and fasting glycemia \<10 mmol/L, no changes in medication in the previous 6 months, and no new symptoms associated with decompensated diabetes in the previous 3 months. * Have a stable weight since the liver biopsy was performed defined by no more than a 5 % loss of initial body weight. * Negative pregnancy test or post-menopausal. Women with childbearing potential (i.e. fertile, following menarche and until becoming post-menopausal unless permanently sterile) must be using a highly effective method of contraception (i.e. combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal/ progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation, intrauterine device, intrauterine hormone-releasing system, bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomised partner).

Outcome results
SAF Activity Score (SAF-A) Decrease of at Least 2 Points With no Worsening of the CRN Fibrosis Score (CRN-F)
SAF-A is the activity part of the Steatosis Activity Fibrosis \[SAF\] histological score, calculated as the sum of lobular inflamation score and balloning score. No worsening of fibrosis means that the CRN fibrosis score (CRN-F) remains stable or decreases.
