About this study

The aim of this bicentre, prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, interventional study is to assess for the first time the effects of a Combo with probiotics and dietary supplements compared to placebo for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients with mild or severe fibrosis.

Read the detailed description

Liver-related mortality is increased 10-fold in NASH patients compared with the general population. Currently, there are no established pharmacotherapies for NASH patients. The gut microbiota has a major contributing role in the development of NASH with leaky gut, inflammation, oxidative stress and impaired microbiota. Restoring the microbiota symbiosys could be a new way of resolution of NASH.

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the Combo, association of probiotics (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Bifidobacterium breve BR03, Lactobacillus plantarum) and Glutamine, Quercetin, Vitamin E, Curcumin, Silybin, Pectin by means of histological resolution of NASH without progression of fibrosis, after 26 weeks (6 months), in 60 NASH patients with mild to severe fibrosis.

To confirm a histological diagnosis of NASH and proof efficacy of the Combo, a liver biopsy will be performed prior to screening as well as at the end of supplemental phase

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. NASH reduction: the main expected benefit is resolution of NASH, and no worsening of fibrosis

    Evolution of the SAF score and CAP elastometry, a composite histological score taking into account the improvement of Steatosis, histological activity and liver fibrosis

    Measured: At 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Initial correlation of NASH parameters (FIB4, NAFLD and liver stiffness) and symbiosis parameters (stool analysis by Shallow Shotgun, biological data specific to symbiosis).

    Measured: At the screening

  2. Follow up of transaminase levels

    Measured: At 6 months

  3. Reduction of hepatic steatosis measured by CAP elastometry and Hepatic MRI

    Measured: At 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Treatment with Combo in people with NASH - Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis, run by Mativa-Tech SA at 2 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Isabelle ROSA, Ph D (01 57 02 27 30, isabelle.rosa@chicreteil.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

NASH reduction: the main expected benefit is resolution of NASH, and no worsening of fibrosis (time frame: At 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Nov 2023.
