Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a companion study assessing the ¹³C-Methacetin Breath Test (MBT) in subjects participating in the Bristol Myers-Squibb (BMS) NCT03486899 and NCT03486912 referenced studies using study drug BMS-986036.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Subjects that are enrolled into either of two separate BMS sponsored IND (Investigational New Drug) studies (referenced by NCT03486899 and NCT03486912) at selected study sites will be offered the opportunity to perform the MBT. These will be considered as two separate study cohorts (cohort 1 and 2 respectively) within this companion protocol. There are four (4) treatment arms (BMS-986036 Dose Level 1, Dose Level 2, Dose Level 3 or matching placebo), as defined in the respective BMS sponsored protocols.

Cohort 1 consists of Subjects with NASH and stage 3 fibrosis, as assessed by a central laboratory reader of the liver biopsies (up to 160), and who meet all the NCT03486899 referenced study criteria.

Cohort 2 consists of Subjects with NASH and compensated liver cirrhosis, as assessed by a central laboratory reader of the liver biopsies (up to100), and who meet all the NCT03486912 referenced study criteria.

Approximately 75 sites will be included in the BMS studies, but not all participating sites will elect to perform the MBT. Each subject will perform up to 3 MBTs over 1 year; approximately one every 24 weeks.

The MBT in this study will only be conducted in the USA.

The primary purpose of the BMS study is to assess an experimental treatment for the following conditions: Hepatic cirrhosis, liver fibrosis, Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and NASH (Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

BMS-986036 Dose Level 1

Administered by subcutaneous injection

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

¹³C-Methacetin Breath Test

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

A breath analyzer will be used to measure changes in 12C (carbon 12) to 13C (carbon 13) ratio as a result of metabolism of the Methacetin substrate before and after treatment.

BMS-986036

Intervention Type DRUG

Investigational drug for NASH treatment in Main BMS protocol

BreathID MCS device

Intervention Type DEVICE

The BreathID MCS device is a breath analyzer specifically used for measuring changes in the ratio of 13CO2 and 12CO2 isotopes of carbon dioxide. The device is connected to the subject via a nasal cannula and breath is passively collected before and after ingestion of labelled 13C- Methacetin substrate.

BMS-986036 Dose Level 2

Administered by subcutaneous injection

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

¹³C-Methacetin Breath Test

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT
