Breakthroughs in Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis Management, 2019 Report – ResearchAndMarkets.com

April 10, 2019 Off By BusinessWire

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Breakthroughs
in Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis Management”
report has been
added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis or NASH is a liver disorder that is
characterized by the build-up of fat in liver in addition to
inflammation and liver cell damage eventually progressing to cirrhosis.
Currently lifestyle interventions are suggested for the treatment of
NASH with no drugs having been approved for the condition.

Multiple drugs are at the last stages of clinical trials with promising
interim results while many more drugs are in early and mid-phase of
clinical studies. Until now with no drugs approved for the condition of
non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, there existed a huge unmet medical need.

Poor performance of INDs tested for the condition of non-alcoholic
steatohepatitis over the years has been attributed to poor preclinical
models which has led to poor human translation of drug safety and
efficacy in addition to use of conservative biomarkers during clinical
trials.

If companies can truly overcome the challenge of human translation of
drug potential in terms of efficacy and safety, then non-alcoholic
steatohepatitis as a manageable condition would be conquered within the
next decade.

The United States leads the way in the number of NASH-related patents
published. The major challenge to demonstrate translation of clinical
endpoint data in NASH trials has been to stop the disease progression to
cirrhosis.
