If taking Vitamin E and/or pentoxifylline, the subject has been receiving a stable dose for 6 months prior to randomization, started Vitamin E and/or pentoxifylline therapy prior to the qualifying liver biopsy, and agrees to maintain a stable dose throughout the study when possible.~10. Subject has an ALT level at Screening between 55 and 250 IU/L, inclusive, and between 60 and 250 IU/L at one other occasion during the 6 months prior to Randomization.~11.

Subject with a history of weight loss or weight gain of \>10 pounds within 6 months prior to Screening.~6. Subject with a history of bariatric surgery within 5 years prior to Screening.~7.

The subject has severe immunological diseases (eg, known HIV infection, multiple sclerosis, lupus erythematosus, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy) assessed at Screening.~14. The subject had a history of diabetic gastroparesis or history of gastric bypass surgery.~15. The subject had a history of coronary angioplasty, coronary stent placement, coronary bypass surgery, or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to Screening.~16. The subject had New York Heart Association heart failure of Class (II-IV) regardless of therapy.~17.

The subject has presence or history of psychotic disorder that may be associated with suicidal thinking, ideation or behavior. These disorders include, but are not limited to, depression, psychosis, psychotic disorder, and schizophrenia. Subjects will be monitored by Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scales throughout the duration of the study.~19. The subject has a history of drug abuse (defined as illicit drug use) or a history of alcohol abuse (defined as regular or daily consumption of more than 2 alcoholic drinks per day for women or 3 alcoholic drinks per day for men. One drink is equivalent to a 12-ounce beer, a 4-ounce glass of wine, or a 1-ounce shot of hard liquor.) within 1 year prior to the Screening visit.~20. The subject has a hemoglobin \<120 g/L for men and \<100 g/L for women.~21. The subject has received pioglitazone or roflumilast in a previous clinical study or as a therapeutic agent within 1 year prior to screening.~22. If female, the subject is pregnant or lactating or intending to become pregnant before, during, or within 1 month after participating in this study; or intending to donate ova during such time period.~23. The subject is an immediate family member, study site employee, or is in a dependent relationship with a study site employee who is involved in conduct of this study (eg, spouse, parent, child, sibling) or may consent under duress.~24. The subject has significant results from physical examinations or clinical laboratory results that, at the discretion of the investigator, would make it difficult to successfully manage and follow the subject according to the protocol.
