继今年3月，全球首款MASH新药——Resmetirom获FDA批准用于治疗伴有肝纤维化的成人MASH患者，填补了MASH药物的空白状态后，近段时间以来，国内MASH领域的“新药曝光度”有目共睹的在增加。  10月15日，微芯生物宣布，其研发的西格列他钠治疗非酒精性脂肪性肝炎（NASH）/代谢相关性脂肪性肝炎（MASH）的2期临床研究（CGZ203试验）摘要入选美国肝病研究学会年会（AASLD 2024），11月17日以口头报告形式公布。  10月18日，中国国家药监局药品审评中心（CDE）官网公示，康弘药业1类THR-β新药KH629片获得临床试验默示许可，拟开发用于治疗成人非酒精性脂肪性肝炎。  为何沉寂40余年的MASH新药研究，短时间内俨然成为“流量”的代名词，成为众多药企争相入局的潜力市场，其背后又是怎样的底层逻辑使然？ 患病率高涨 MASH是临床需求愈发迫切 其实，与大多数肝脏慢性病不同，近年来非酒精性脂肪性肝病（NAFLD）的患病率不降反增，现阶段已取代乙肝成为我国最常见的慢性肝病。  资料显示，中国成年人中NAFLD患病率高达29.2%，10年内整体增长10%，中国MASH患病率约为2.4%～6.1%，我国NAFLD/MASH患者疾病负担极其沉重。据弗若斯特沙利文报告预计， 2030 年全球 MASH 患病人数将达到 4.9 亿人，全球MASH药物市场将达到 322 亿美元。  作为NAFLD中最严重的发展阶段，原理上MASH是一种与代谢紊乱相关的肝脏疾病，其特征是肝脏中脂肪的异常积累，伴随着炎症和肝细胞损伤，早年间被称为非酒精性脂肪性肝炎（NASH）。  40余年的相关研究下，人们对MASH的发病机制仍尚未完全明确，目前认为其乃是一种代谢应激性肝损伤，与多种因素相关，复杂的级联反应下的肝细胞损伤机制有以下几种，主要包括胰岛素抵抗、氧化应激、炎症反应和脂质代谢异常等多个环节。  在临床表现方面，MASH通常情况下起病隐匿且缓慢，且通常无症状，多于常规检查过程中无意发现，并且由于MASH通常情况下难以自发缓解，在早期无干预的情况下进展为肝纤维化的风险很高，大约有15%的患者会发展为肝硬化、肝衰竭和肝细胞癌。 临床药物缺乏 MASH传统治疗局限性大  在Resmetirom获FDA批准上市之前，全球尚无治疗 NAFLD/NASH 的靶向性药物，而由于MASH与肥胖、2 型糖尿病、高血压、血脂紊乱等疾病的密切相关性，目前普遍认为控制这些疾病可有效改善 NAFLD/NASH的代谢状态，从而延缓疾病进展。  因此，NAFLD以及MASH的治疗基础仍是生活方式的干预和饮食方案的优化，生活习惯的改善，尤其饮食的控制及锻炼减重等可减少肝脏脂肪沉积，有利于改善 MASH 的生化指标和肝组织学病变，相关研究显示，体重减轻 3% 即可改善 NAFLD患者脂肪肝病情程度，减重 7% 可改善肝脏炎症等组 织学指标，减重 10% 可逆转肝纤维化水平。  而在药物治疗方面，临床上主要针对抗胰岛素抵抗、抗氧化应激、降血脂、促进脂质代谢及保护肝细胞膜等对MASH进行治疗，如二甲双胍、维生素 E、熊去氧胆酸、FXR激动剂奥贝胆酸、肝损伤治疗药物等保肝药物的使用。  但同时，上述药物治疗方式的局限性也很大，一者药物的治疗剂量、有效性及安全性均尚不明确，有待进一步研究；二者，如奥贝胆酸等FXR激动剂的不良反应也极大限制了其在MASH领域的应用。  故现阶段的MASH临床治疗上，迫切需要一种副作用低、能逆转肝纤维化、患者顺应性佳的创新疗法。 四大方向 推动MASH机制逐渐清晰 就目前而言，通过对MASH的发病机制研究，目前已有多款靶点给予了MASH有效干预，是目前乃至未来MASH治疗的主要方向。从类型上来看主要分为代谢、消化、抗炎、抗纤维化四种方向：  代谢类：改善胰岛素敏感性、抑制脂肪生成各种酶、促进线粒体摄取脂肪酸等。 消化类：调控肝肠轴的循环、改善胆汁酸的循环与信号传导、改善肠道菌群的平衡等。 抗炎类：抑制炎症细胞聚集、阻断炎性信号传导、降低氧化作用和内质网应激反应、防止肝细胞凋亡等。 抗纤维化：针对肝脏中的星形细胞、减轻肝脏中胶原蛋白的沉积、增强纤维分解等。 而在这四种类型药物之下，又可以细分出不同的靶点选择，各靶点方向之下又存在不同的技术优势与产品差异。 数据来源：公开数据整理（点击查看大图） 据不完全统计，全球现有MASH在研疗法已突破350款。其中代谢类与消化类的数量最多，而前者主要机制集中于肝内，在逆转纤维化方面具有优势，而后者则是从肝外机制着手，在降低肝脏脂肪积累与纤维化进展方面优势明显，两者机制各有优劣，未来大概率会是协同合作的关系。  临床阶段方面，虽绝大多数创新疗法均集中在临床前阶段，但跨入临床阶段的产品依旧不少，其中以临床II期管线数量最多，共计108款；而进入临床III期产品则也有18款之多。 表1.MASH临床III期管线 药品名称 靶点 适应症最高阶段 原研单位 利莫纳班 rimonabant CB1 临床Ⅲ期 赛诺菲 依碳酸瑞格列净 remogliflozin etabonate SLC5A2 临床Ⅲ期 BHV

数据来源：药智数据 三大靶点 引领MASH新药加速落地  就MASH在研药物靶点分布上而言，glp-1、FXR、THR-β、FGF19/21与PPAR是现阶段MASH最主要的在研药物类型。 数据来源：药智数据 从数量上来看，FXR激动剂、GLP1在研发热度上远超其他靶点，其在研数量也最多，目前均有超过30款相关疗法布局；其次是THR-β、FGF19/21与PPAR，分别有19、18与13款新药布局；其余靶点数量则相对较少，其临床阶段也相对靠后。  从趋势上来看，FXR激动剂虽然是MASH领域的老牌靶点之一，但由于靶点特殊作用机制，其在副作用上的局限性太大，直接影响了其在临床上的应用潜力。至少就现在而言，反而是glp-1与THR-β两种机制的MASH新药更受关注，未来也更容易占据头牌。 数据来源：药智数据 GLP-1  由于原理上GLP-1类似物能够有效改善糖脂代谢异常，因此GLP-1受体激动剂在糖尿病与减重适应症外，也被视为潜在的MASH治疗药物。 表2.GLP-1应用于MASH的创新疗法 药品名称 靶点 原研单位 适应症最高阶段 司美格鲁肽 semaglutide GLP-1R 丹麦诺和诺德公司 临床Ⅲ期 survodutide GLP-1R;GCGR Zealand Pharma A/S;勃林格殷格翰

的焦点由减肥向在抗 MASH转变之下，已有超30种GLP-1药物正在研究其治疗MASH的潜力，临床上推进较快的产品不少，较出名的产品有诺和诺德的司美格鲁肽、勃林格殷格翰的survodutide、阿斯利康的cotadutide、礼来制药的tirzepatide。  其中，Semaglutide与替尔泊肽作为GLP-1两大重磅产品，在关于MASH的治疗研究中均显示出减少肝脏脂肪积累、降低炎症水平的潜力，极大地振奋了行业对GLP-1作用于MASH的信心。  但与此同时，GLP-1在治疗MASH上的局限性也逐渐体现，即虽然在减少肝脏脂肪积累和纤维化方面的效果显著，但对逆转肝脏纤维化上却缺乏足够、全面、多维度的有效证据。这就导致GLP-1疗法单药治疗既无法完全满足现有的临床需求，也很难与其他疗法拉开差距。  对此，有关人士表示，GLP-1未来要想在MASH领域站稳脚跟，要么就逆转纤维化做出更多差异化成果，要么依靠肝外机制改善代谢紊乱的特点，与众多肝内机制的MASH疗法形成联动与互补，以协同策略解决MASH的临床需求。 Fxr（NR1H4） 作为曾经治疗MASH最重要的靶点，也是MASH早期阶段最主要的在研药物形式，FXR作为一种肠肝调节因子，不仅参与胆汁酸信号传导，调控胆汁酸合成和转运，还可以调节葡萄糖稳态、脂质和胆固醇代谢等其他生理功能以及抑制炎症，在MASH治疗上，目前已显示出一定的治疗效果。  截止目前，除已经宣布终止MASH适应症开发的奥贝胆酸外，领域内仍有超过30款Fxr激动剂涉及MASH适应症，其中Organovo的FXR314已进入了临床III期，是现阶段推进最快的Fxr激动剂；之后，还有10余款管线进入了临床II期，较受期待的有吉利德的cilofexor、诺华制药的nidufexor、东阳光药业HEC96719等。 表3.MASH中Fxr激动剂创新疗法 药品名称 靶点 原研单位

而与此同时，虽然近年来Fxr激动剂领域用于MASH治疗的研究开发正在进入快速发展期，但临床获益有限，副作用严重等局限性也制约了其在临床上应用，最显著的例子就是奥贝胆酸，其2015年获FDA突破性疗法资格认定，是全球第一个进入临床3期的MASH候选产品，但最终仍因获益不确定性、副作用较大而折戟，经历多次被FDA否决后，最终无奈宣布终止其用于MASH领域的开发。  因此，对于Fxr激动剂整体而言，在保证创新疗法的有效性，研究机构未来更大的精力或将集中于创新疗法的不良反应的减少与安全性的提高上。  THR-β  THR-β是一种核激素受体，其主要在肝脏中高表达，能够调节脂代谢，降低低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（LDL-C）、甘油三酯和致动脉粥样硬化性脂蛋白，因此成为理论上MASH最具潜力的治疗靶点。  此外，THR-β还可以通过促进脂肪酸的分解和刺激线粒体的生物发生来减少脂肪毒性并改善肝功能，进而减少肝脏脂肪。这也是为何THR-β激动剂会具备调控多种肝脏代谢通路来治疗MASH的潜力的原因。其在MASH上的主要作用有以下5点：  调控脂肪合成 调控脂肪酸氧化作用 调控胆固醇代谢 调控线粒体功能 通过抑制TGF-β信号通路发挥抗炎和抗纤维化作用 2024年3月，Resmetirom成为首款获FDA批准上市的治疗代谢功能障碍相关脂肪性肝炎（MASH）的新药，也是THR-β激动剂领域首款撞线的产品。 表4.MASH中THR-β激动剂创新疗法 药品名称 靶点 原研单位 适应症最高阶段 瑞司美替罗 resmetirom THRB Madrigal Pharmaceuticals Inc;罗氏制药 批准上市 VK-2809 THRB Ligand

Resmetirom的成功获批一方面为MASH患者的治疗提供了新手段，同时另一方面也证明了THR-β激动剂路线的可行性。  也正是因此，THR-β激动剂成为全球MASH新药研发的主要集中方向，多款THR-β激动剂紧随其后，均表现出不俗的潜力，目前临床阶段进展较快的主要有四款，分别是Ligand的VK-2809、歌礼制药的ASC41、拓臻生物的TERN-501以及海思科的HSK-31679，均已进入了临床II期。  而更值得注意的是，THR-β激动剂也是目前国内MASH在研新药最集中的方向，处于领先地位（临床进度靠前）的创新疗法数量远高于其他几种类型。未来，不出意外的话，国内在该领域的突破大概率也将集中此，或许还有望领先于海外药企，成为MNC争夺的关键。 小结  纵观MASH领域40余年的发展历史，从致病机制的不断完善，到临床上的对症治疗出现，再到今年首款新药获批上市，MASH的新药研发充满坎坷。  但随着MASH新药研发的四大机制方向、10余款创新靶点的逐步落地，领域内似乎正在逐渐形成一个系统化、宏观化的研发格局，过程中不断有更多如GLP-1、THR-β等全新的疗法加入，至少目前看来俨然一副百废待兴，可大展拳脚的状态。  而对于国内药企而言，虽然某种程度上做不到如海外一般全赛道布局，但在个别如THR-β激动剂等潜力领域的优势却反而更大，或许这种强调聚焦的国内赛道模式，未来或许真能让中国企业站上国际舞台，成为MASH领域的龙头之一。 来源 | 博药（药智网获取授权转载） 撰稿 | 头孢 责任编辑 | 八角

Data Revealed Favorable Safety, Tolerability and Dose-Linear Pharmacokinetics (PK) Top-Line Data Readout from the MAD Part 2 Expected in the First Quarter of 2025 Planned Phase 1 Part 3 Will Evaluate Early Proof of Concept CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: NRBO), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on transforming cardiometabolic diseases, today announced positive top-line safety, tolerability, and dose-linear pharmacokinetics (PK) data from the single ascending dose (SAD) Part 1 of its Phase 1 clinical trial of DA-1726, a novel, dual oxyntomodulin (OXM) analog agonist that functions as a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR), for the treatment of obesity. In the SAD Part 1 of the Phase 1 clinical trial, a total of 45 obese, otherwise healthy participants were randomized in a double-blind, 6:3 ratio of DA-1726 or placebo. Single ascending doses were found to be safe and well tolerated, with no serious adverse events. Only 5 subjects in the DA-1726 treatment group reported adverse events (AEs) compared with 3 subjects in the placebo group. A dose-linear PK profile was observed across the investigated dose range. Additional cohorts are being added to the SAD Part 1 to explore the maximum tolerated dose. "The safety, tolerability and dose-linear PK data generated from the Part 1 SAD trial are highly encouraging and allowed for the accelerated initiation of our multiple ascending dose (MAD) study," stated Hyung Heon Kim, President and Chief Executive Officer of NeuroBo. "In light of the strong safety profile from the SAD Part 1 of the study, we are in the process of adding one or more cohorts to further explore the maximum tolerated dose, which will allow us to realize the full potential of DA-1726. Based on the preclinical data generated to date, as well as DA-1726's balanced activation of GLP1R and glucagon receptors, which increases energy expenditure, we continue to believe that DA-1726 may become a best-in-class obesity drug with a better tolerability profile than currently marketed GLP-1 agonists, and those now in late-stage clinical trials. We eagerly anticipate reporting top-line data from the MAD Part 2 in the first quarter of 2025, which will give us an early read on clinical efficacy. Additionally, we continue to plan Part 3 of the trial that will explore early proof of concept." The MAD Part 2 of the Phase 1 trial is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to investigate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of multiple ascending doses of DA-1726 in obese, otherwise healthy subjects. Part 2 is expected to enroll approximately 36 participants, who will be randomized at the same 6:3 ratio into 4 planned cohorts, each to receive 4 weekly administrations of DA-1726 or placebo. The first patient in the MAD study was dosed ahead of schedule, in late June, as previously reported. The primary endpoint of the Phase 1 trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of DA-1726 by monitoring adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and AEs leading to treatment discontinuation. Secondary endpoints include the PK of DA-1726, assessed via serum concentrations over time and metabolite profiling at the highest doses of DA-1726. Exploratory endpoints will include the effect of DA-1726 on metabolic parameters, cardiac parameters, fasting lipid levels, body weight, waist circumference and body mass index (BMI), among others. For more information on this clinical trial, please visit: NCT06252220. About DA-1726 DA-1726 is a novel oxyntomodulin (OXM) analogue functioning as a GLP1R/GCGR dual agonist for the treatment of obesity and Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) that is to be administered once weekly subcutaneously. DA-1726 acts as a dual agonist of GLP-1 receptors (GLP1R) and glucagon receptors (GCGR), leading to weight loss through reduced appetite and increased energy expenditure. DA-1726 has a well understood mechanism and, in pre-clinical mice models, resulted in improved weight loss compared to semaglutide (Wegovy®) and cotadutide (another OXM analogue). Additionally, in pre-clinical mouse models, DA-1726 elicited similar weight reduction, while consuming more food, compared tirzepatide (Zepbound®) and survodutide (a drug with the same MOA), while also preserving lean body mass and demonstrating improved lipid-lowering effects compared to survodutide. About NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on transforming cardiometabolic diseases. The company is currently developing DA-1726 for the treatment of obesity, and is developing DA-1241 for the treatment of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH). DA-1726 is a novel oxyntomodulin (OXM) analogue that functions as a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR) dual agonist. OXM is a naturally-occurring gut hormone that activates GLP1R and GCGR, thereby decreasing food intake while increasing energy expenditure, thus potentially resulting in superior body weight loss compared to selective GLP1R agonists. DA-1241 is a novel G-protein-coupled receptor 119 (GPR119) agonist that promotes the release of key gut peptides GLP-1, GIP, and PYY. In pre-clinical studies, DA-1241 demonstrated a positive effect on liver inflammation, lipid metabolism, weight loss, and glucose metabolism, reducing hepatic steatosis, hepatic inflammation, and liver fibrosis, while also improving glucose control.
