Summary

This early-stage study tested the safety and how the body processes a new drug called ACT500 in 72 healthy Chinese adults. Participants received either the drug or a placebo, and researchers monitored for side effects and drug levels in the blood. The goal was not to treat any disease, but to gather essential safety information before testing the drug in people with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a type of fatty liver disease.
