Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Conditions
Brief summary
The main objective of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of ALS-L1023 in patients with Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
Detailed description
Besides the main objectives, there are other objectives as follows: 1. To evaluate efficacy of ALS-L1023 for liver fibrosis and steatosis by noninvasive imaging biomarker MRI-PDFF and MRE 2. To determine optimized dose of ALS-L1023 in NASH disease

Exclusion criteria
* Any subject with current, significant alcohol consumption or a history of significant alcohol consumption for a period of more than 3 consecutive months any time within 2 year prior to screening will be excluded * Chronic liver disease (including hemochromatosis, liver cancer, autoimmune liver disease, viral hepatitis A, B, alcoholic liver disease * Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus as defined by a HbA1c ≥ 9.0% at Screening * Patients who are allergic or hypersensitive to the drug or its constituents * Pregnant or lactating women
