Study Details

Novo Nordisk is developing a combination of 2 medicines (NNC0194-0499 and semaglutide) for the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NASH is a serious disease where fat, inflammation and scar tissue builds up in the liver. NNC0194-0499 is a new medicine which works in the liver. Semaglutide is a well-known medicine, which is already used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. The study is being done to see how 2 medicines (NNC0194-0499 and semaglutide) are absorbed, transported, and eliminated from the body in a combination formulation. Participants will either get NNC0194-0499 and semaglutide in a combination formulation or the separate formulations. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. The study will last for either 13 or 33 weeks. The duration is decided by chance.

Arms

  • Experimental: Group 1
    Participants will receive separate injections of NNC0194-0499 B and Semaglutide B for 24 weeks. Dose escalation manner every 4 weeks for 20 weeks (30 mg NNC0194-0499 B and 0.24 mg Semaglutide B for Weeks 1-4, 30 mg NNC0194-0499 B and 0.5 mg Semaglutide B for Weeks 5-8, 30 mg NNC0194-0499 B and 1.0 mg Semaglutide B for Weeks 9-12, 30 mg NNC0194-0499 B and 1.7 mg Semaglutide B for Weeks 13-16 and 30 mg NNC0194-0499 B and 2.4 mg Semaglutide B for Weeks 17-20). Participants will receive NNC0194-0499/Semaglutide A 40/3.20 mg/mL co-formulation at the target dose of 30/2.4 mg during the weeks 21-24 (maintenance dosing period).
  • Experimental: Group 2
    Participants will receive NNC0194-0499/Semaglutide A 40/3.20 mg/mL co-formulation for 24 weeks. Dose escalation manner every 4 weeks for 20 weeks (3.1mg/0.25mg for Weeks 1-4, 6.3mg/0.5mg for Weeks 5-8, 12.5mg/1.0mg for Weeks 9-12, 21.3mg/1.7mg for Weeks 13-16 and 30mg/2.4mg for weeks 17-20). Participants will receive NNC0194-0499/Semaglutide 40/3.20 mg/mL co-formulation at the target dose of 30mg/2.4mg during the weeks 21-24 (maintenance dosing period).
  • Experimental: Group 3
    Participants will receive 4 weekly injections of NNC0194-0499/Semaglutide A 40/0.33 mg/mL co-formulation at the dose level of 30mg/0.25 mg.

Primary Outcome Measure

AUC 0-168 hour (h), 0499, steady state (SS): Area under the NNC0194-0499 concentration time curve during a dosing interval (0-168 hours) at steady state after dosing of NNC0194-0499 in combination with semaglutide [ Time Frame: Day 134 (pre-dose) to Day 141 (168 hours post-dose) ]
