Overview

The AZ compound is a novel pharmaceutical agent developed by AstraZeneca that was evaluated in a Phase IIa clinical trial (NCT02348489) sponsored by the University of Alabama at Birmingham. The study was designed as a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial to assess the efficacy and safety of the compound in subjects with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The primary objective was to determine if the drug could decrease liver fat content compared to a placebo over a 12-week treatment period. The compound was administered orally at a total daily dose of 800 mg, divided into two 400 mg doses taken in the morning and evening. However, the clinical development for this specific indication was terminated by AstraZeneca due to a change in their clinical development strategy for the compound.
