Title: | Development of new drugs for the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. |
Abstract: | The development of new drugs for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a current focus of research in the management of liver disease. Here we provided an overview of NASH drug pipelines and the challenges faced in conducting phases II and III clinical trials. These challenges include the selection and definition of research populations, rational selection of study end-points, choice of noninvasive diagnostic indicators, accounting for confounding factors and safety assessments. Furthermore, we discussed how to establish guidelines for study design and end-points in complex clinical trials of anti-NASH drugs. |
