Study Summary

This study is to evaluate the predictive value of NRL972 pharmacokinetics in the diagnosis of steatohepatitis using fatty liver disease as the comparator group. In addition, the sensitivity and specificity of NRL972 pharmacokinetics as a diagnostic tool will be compared to results from the standard laboratory tests, elastography, tests of metabolic markers and serum fibrosis markers frequently used in the evaluation of clinically predicted NAFLD patients. Patients will be included if they have clinical evidence of fatty liver disease and have been referred to the clinic for a diagnostic work-up, including a liver biopsy, blood tests and scans of the liver.

Primary Outcome

The primary efficacy variable was the NRL972 fractional retention ratio for 10 and 30 minutes post-dose (C30/C10) for different populations with NAFLD.
