Phase 2 Double-Blind Study of GSK4532990 for Treating Alcohol-Related Liver Disease in Adults Aged 18 to 70

What this Trial Is About

This trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of GSK4532990 in adults aged 18 to 70 who have alcohol-related liver disease, including those with advanced chronic liver disease. The study aims to understand how this drug affects liver health, including changes in liver stiffness and liver disease severity over time, compared to a placebo. It is a phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline. Participants will be assigned to receive one of four doses of GSK4532990 or a placebo. The study uses a sequential design where dosing and treatment effects are monitored closely. Treatment and safety assessments are conducted up to 8 weeks, with liver measurements taken at baseline and at 52 weeks to evaluate long-term effects. During the trial, participants will undergo regular safety evaluations including monitoring for adverse events, heart and vital sign checks, and laboratory tests. Liver stiffness and disease severity scores will be measured at the start and after one year. Additional blood tests will assess drug levels and liver function. The total study participation includes initial screening, treatment, and follow-up visits lasting up to 52 weeks.
