Among a variety of medications in development, four agents such as OCA, elafibranor, ASK1 inhibitor, and CVC are currently being evaluated in an international phase 3 trial for the treatment of NASH. Within the next few years, the availability of therapeutic options for NASH will hopefully curb the rising trend of NASH-related diseases.

ARAMCHOL, SCD1 INHIBITOR, IMPROVES LIVER GLUCOSE HOMEOSTASIS IN NASH (Hynes Convention Center, Hall B) - Sep 29, 2019 - Abstract #AASLD2019AASLD_2898; These results suggest that Aramchol targets not only the alterations in lipid metabolism that characterize NASH but additionally improves liver glucose homeostasis in patients and murine models. Also, in Aramchol-treated primary hepatocytes, there is an inhibition in LPC and GPC formation, which would improve VLDL-TG secretion, together with a reduction in TCA cycle metabolites.

INCREASED EXPOSURE OF ARAMCHOL BY USING A SPLIT DOSE – POTENTIAL FOR GREATER EFFICACY IN NASH (Hynes Convention Center, Hall B) - Sep 29, 2019 - Abstract #AASLD2019AASLD_1901; The prediction from the PK model was born out with substantially higher concentrations of Aramchol obtained with twice daily regimen. Based on the ARREST study and dose dependency pattern, this increase in exposure offers the potential for greater efficacy in the treatment of NASH with Aramchol.
