Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of multiple ION224 doses when administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection for 49 weeks (end of the treatment \[EOT\]) on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) histologic improvement and to assess the effect on liver steatosis by magnetic resonance imaging-determined proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF), additional changes in NASH histologic features, liver biochemistry tests, and plasma lipid profile.

Primary Outcome

The NAS is a histology grading score composed on the assessment of steatosis (scale 0-3), hepatocellular ballooning (scale 0-2), and lobular inflammation (scale 0-3), with higher scores indicating more severe hepatitis. Worsening of fibrosis is defined as an increase in fibrosis of at least one stage on the Kleiner fibrosis classification: fibrosis stages range from 0-4, with higher scores indicating greater fibrosis (0=None, 4=Cirrhosis).
