Outcome Measures: |
Main Objective: For phase I:<br>Safety and tolerability of deferasirox over 12 weeks of continued treatment in two dose escalating cohorts<br><br>For phase II:<br>Changes in liver histology at 48 weeks of treatment with Deferasirox: a decrease in the NASH activity score (NAS) of =1 compared to baseline will be classified as response, an unchanged score or an increase in NAS will be judged as non-response. Deferasirox will be regarded as active in NASH, if = 33% of patients will have a decrease in NAS of = 1 at week 48;Secondary Objective: Phase I:<br>-changes in liver enzymes, serum ferritin, and hemoglobin levels<br>-changes in serologically assessed parameters for NASH<br>-changes in hepatic iron content and distribution (immunohistochemistry)<br>-changes in histology based assessment of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis<br>-changes in liver function (13C-breath testing)<br>Phase II:<br>-changes in liver enzymes<br>-changes in serologically assessed parameters for NASH<br>-changes in hepatic iron content and distribution (immunohistochemistry, MRI assessment)<br>-changes in MRI and histology based assessment of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis<br>-changes in liver function (13C-breath testing)<br>-response association with initial HFE/HD63 gene status<br>-changes in metabolic status<br>-changes in body mass index, fat distribution<br>-safety and tolerability of Deferasirox;Primary end point(s): For phase I:<br>Safety and tolerability of deferasirox over 12 weeks of continued treatment in two dose escalating cohorts<br><br>For phase II:<br>Changes in liver histology at 48 weeks of treatment with Deferasirox: a decrease in the NASH activity score (NAS) of =1 compared to baseline will be classified as response, an unchanged score or an increase in NAS will be judged as non-response. Deferasirox will be regarded as active in NASH, if = 33% of patients will have a decrease in NAS of = 1 at week 48;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: For phase I: 12 weeks<br>For phase II: 48 weeksSecondary end point(s): Phase I:<br>-changes in liver enzymes, serum ferritin, and hemoglobin levels<br>-changes in serologically assessed parameters for NASH<br>-changes in hepatic iron content and distribution (immunohistochemistry)<br>-changes in US based assessments of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis (facultatively, where available)<br>-changes in liver function (13C-breath testing)<br><br>Phase II:<br>additionally:<br>-changes in hepatic iron content and distribution (MRI assessment)<br>-changes in MRI based assessment of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: For phase I: 12 weeks<br>For phase II: 48 weeks
