Brief summary

This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center study using the oral ORMD-0801 insulin formulation in patients with NASH and confirmed type 2 DM.

Detailed description

This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center study using the oral ORMD-0801 insulin formulation in patients with NASH and confirmed type 2 DM. The study will consist of a Screening Phase, Placebo Run-in Phase, Treatment Phase and an End-of-Study Phase. Approximately 36 subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either 8 mg ORMD-0801, 1 capsule twice a day (once in the morning approximately 30 to 45 minutes prior to breakfast and no later than 10 AM, and once at night between 8 PM to Midnight and no sooner than 1 hour after dinner) or matching placebo.

A negative urine and serum pregnancy test must be obtained prior to active dosing. Males and females of childbearing potential must use two methods of contraception (double barrier method), one of which must be an acceptable barrier method from the time of screening to the last dosing study visit (22 weeks). Barrier methods of contraception include male condoms plus spermicide, diaphragm with spermicide plus male condom, cervical cap with spermicide plus male condom, or oral contraceptives. Acceptable methods of birth control include abstinence, oral contraceptives, surgical sterilization, vasectomy, the contraceptive patch, and the contraceptive ring. If a subject is not usually sexually active but becomes active, he or his partner should use medically accepted forms of contraception. Sperm donations will not be allowed for the duration of the study and for 90 days after the last dose of study drug. * Females of non-childbearing potential are defined as postmenopausal who a) had more than 24 months since last menstrual cycle with menopausal levels of FSH (FSH Level \> 40), b) who are surgically menopausal (surgical sterility defined by tubal occlusion, bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy). * For hypertensive patients, hypertension must be controlled by a stable dose of anti-hypertensive medication for at least 2 months prior to screening (and the stable dose can be maintained throughout the study) with BP \< 150/\<95 mmHg * Patients previously treated with vitamin E (\>400IU/day), Polyunsaturated fatty acid (\>2g/day) or Ursodeoxycholic acid fish oil can be included if drugs are stopped at least 3 months prior to enrolment and up to the end of the study. * Glycaemia must be controlled (Glycosylated Hemoglobin A1C ≤8.5%) while any HbA1C increment should not exceed 1% during 6 months prior to enrolment).

Exclusion criteria

Percent Change From Baseline in Mean Magnetic Resonance Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRPDFF) of Whole Liver

The percent change from basline in liver fat content as measured by the mean MRI Proton density Fat Fraction (MR PDFF) at baseline and at week 12 of Whole Liver

Time frame: Screening and Week 12 (Visit 8)

Population: Intent-to-Treat. Placebo population: One subject's baseline Whole Liver MRPDFF was missing. This patient did have their Visit 8 MRI, however since there was no baseline MRPDFF Whole Liver, the change from baseline measurement cannot be calculated. A second patient did not have their Week 12 MRI acquired.~ORMD-0801:One subject did not have a Visit 8 MRI (discontinued study due to Withdrew Consent). A second subject did not have a Visit 8 MRI (discontinued study due to Adverse Event)
