A Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, PK, and PD of HP515 in Non - Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease ( NASH/MASH )

Primary Objective: • To evaluate the efficacy of HP515 tablets in participants with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Secondary objectives: * To evaluate the safety of HP515 tablets in participants with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; * To evaluate the pharmacokinetic of HP515 tablets in participants with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; * To evaluate the pharmacodynamic effects of HP515 tablets in participants with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; Exploratory objective: • To evaluate the impact of HP515 tablets on target markers in participants with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The study includes a screening period of 4 weeks, a treatment period of 12 weeks, and a safety follow-up period of 4 weeks.

a Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetic Trial of Multiple Subcutaneous Injections of B1344 Injection in Patients With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease（NAFLD）

This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose escalating clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity profile of B1344 in patients with NAFLD. Additionally, the trial will conduct preliminary observations on the efficacy of B1344, aiming to provide early proof of concept for B1344 as a therapeutic agent for NASH.

The Impact of Pectin Supplementation on Systematic Inflammation Pathway, Gut Microbiome, and Metabolic Health in Patients With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if daily supplementation with Low-methoxy (LM) pectin (polysaccharides extracted from citrus peels), which are commonly found in the UK diet (not pharmacological agents), can reduce systemic inflammation and improve gut microbiota composition in adults recently diagnosed with Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD). The main question it aims to answer is: -How does dietary Low-methoxy (LM) pectin supplementation affect systematic inflammation pathways such as those mediated by gut microbiota composition and what are the impacts on general metabolic indicators in individuals with MASLD? Researchers will compare a group taking 15g of LM-pectin with 10g of cocoa powder to a placebo group receiving 10g of placebo with 10g of cocoa powder to see if LM-pectin has measurable effects on inflammation and gut microbiota. Participants will: * Take a daily supplement for 6 weeks: either 15g of LM-pectin with 10g of cocoa powder (intervention), or 10g of placebo with 10g of cocoa powder (control) * Provide stool and fasting blood samples before and after the intervention * Undergo anthropometric measurements (weight, height, waist/hip ratio, and blood pressure) * Complete a case report form (CRF) including demographics and health/medical history * Undergo a FibroScan™ to assess liver health * (Optional) Participate in MRI scans to evaluate gut permeability
