Early biomarker responses to resmetirom linked to improved MASH outcomes

Early biomarker responses to resmetirom linked to improved MASH outcomes

Early blood and imaging changes were linked to improved liver outcomes in patients treated with resmetirom.

The drug is also known by the brand name Rezdiffra.

The patients had metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, or MASH.

Patients with early biomarker responses were more likely to have MASH resolution.

Those responses were also associated with improvement in liver fibrosis, which means scarring in the liver got better.

The findings show a link, but the information provided does not say that early biomarker changes caused the improvement or what happens next.
