Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, PK, and PD Effects of AZD2389 in Participants With Liver Fibrosis and Compensated Cirrhosis. (NCT NCT06750276)

NCT ID: NCT06750276

Last Updated: 2026-07-06

Results Overview

The number of participants with notable trends in laboratory assessments (haematology, coagulation, clinical chemistry, fibrinolysis, and urinalysis) is presented. Notable trends were assessed based on evaluation of mean values over time, individual participant values, and clinically important abnormalities, including values outside predefined criteria.

Participant Flow

A total of 95 participants were screened for the study at 9 centres (1 in the UK and 8 in the US).

Of the 95 participants, 40 were eligible for the study: 22 with presumed MASH/NASH with fibrosis (Cohort A) and 18 with underlying SLDs of varying aetiologies (Cohort B).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From screening up to and including Day 35

Population: Safety analysis set. All participants who were randomised and received at least one dose of study intervention were analysed.

The number of participants with notable trends in laboratory assessments (haematology, coagulation, clinical chemistry, fibrinolysis, and urinalysis) is presented. Notable trends were assessed based on evaluation of mean values over time, individual participant values, and clinically important abnormalities, including values outside predefined criteria.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From Screening up to and including Day 35

Population: Safety analysis set. All participants who were randomised and received at least one dose of study intervention were analysed.

The number of participants with clinically relevant trends in vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate, oxygen saturation, body temperature, and respiration rate), and12-lead ECGs is presented. Clinically relevant trends were assessed based on trends or group changes over time, changes in individual participants over time, and individual clinically important abnormalities.
