This study was conducted as a 10-week (eight-week treatment period and one-week safety follow-up), randomized, partially-blind study that evaluated the effect of GWP42003 in participants with raised liver triglycerides (liver fat ≥5%). Participants were clinically diagnosed with FLD and had liver fat levels ≥5% as measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging/ Magnetic Resonance Scanning (MRI/MRS), or were willing to undergo MRI/MRS scan at the screening visit to confirm a liver fat content of ≥5%. Eligible participants entered the study at a screening visit (Day -10 to -2) and then returned for a fasted baseline visit (Day 1), a mid-treatment visit (Day 29) and an end of treatment visit (Day 57). Safety follow-up telephone calls took place throughout the treatment period up to Day 64 after completion of treatment or seven days after date of last dose/withdrawal.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of GWP42003 on liver triglyceride (liver fat) in participants with fatty liver disease (FLD).
