Structure of proof of concept studies that precede a nonalcoholic steatohepatitis development program.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY & THERAPEUTICS(2017)
摘要
Surrogate endpoints for clinical proof of concept (POC) trials in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are based upon expert pathological review of liver biopsies. During early development, these long-term POC studies (>= 48 weeks) add cost and time to the "Go/No Go" decision process. However, it is possible to conduct short-term noninvasive POC studies utilizing biomarkers and magnetic resonance imaging. Here, we discuss the use of shorter noninvasive POC studies relative to biopsy-driven studies for drug development in NASH.
