Joel Lewis, Chief Executive Officer and President of Galectin Therapeutics, said: "As previously reported, we completed recruitment in late December 2022 and randomization by the end of February 2023 in our adaptively designed Phase 2b/3 NAVIGATE trial for the prevention of esophageal varices in patients with NASH cirrhosis with a total of 357 patients. We randomized more patients than we had anticipated, potentially adding power to the study. From the beginning of December until the end of February, we randomized more than 5 patients per week, notwithstanding the holiday season. Typically, clinical trials become more efficient as time elapses over the screening window."
