The Impact of Ibutamoren on Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Pilot Study
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating LUM-201 for NAFLD and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 12 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), fatty infiltration of the liver in the absence of alcohol use, is an increasingly recognized complication of obesity, with prevalence estimates of about 30% of individuals in the United States. A subset of these will develop progressive disease in the form of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which can progress to cirrhosis and liver failure. The investigators hypothesize that LUM-201 (Ibutamoren mesylate) will decrease intrahepatic lipid accumulation as quantified by proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS).
