Title: Research Study on Whether a Combination of 2 Medicines (NNC0194 0499 and Semaglutide) Works in People With Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)

Associated condition: NASH

Status: Currently enrolling

Brief summary: This study is being done to see if a combination of 2 medicines (called NNC0194-0499 and semaglutide) can reduce liver damage in patients with non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

NNC0194-0499 is a new medicine which works in the liver. Semaglutide is a well-known medicine, which is already used by doctors to treat type 2 diabetes in many countries. It also helps with weight loss and may reduce liver damage, and so prevent future liver complications. It works in a different way to NNC0194 0499. The 2 medicines may work better together than on their own.

Primary objectives: 

Improvement in liver fibrosis and no worsening of NASH (Yes/No) [ Time Frame: From baseline (week 0) to week 52 ]

  • Count of subjects Improvement in fibrosis is defined as greater than or equal to 1 grade improvement on the NASH CRN fibrosis scale

Estimated length of study:  It is estimated that the study be fully completed by September 2024. The study will last for about 19 months. Participants will have 14 clinic visits and 9 phone calls with the study doctor. Participants will have 1 or 2 liver biopsies (tiny pieces of liver tissue) – one at the start (if participants have not had a biopsy recently) and one at the end of the study treatment.
