A Study of Pegozafermin for MASH with Compensated Cirrhosis

This study is testing a drug called pegozafermin to see if it's safe and effective for people with compensated cirrhosis due to MASH (Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis), also known as NASH. MASH is a liver disease where fat builds up in the liver, causing inflammation and damage. You might be able to join if you are 18 to 75 years old, have type 2 diabetes or at least two other metabolic risk factors, and have MASH with compensated cirrhosis confirmed by a liver biopsy. The study will look at whether pegozafermin can help reduce liver scarring (fibrosis) and prevent the disease from getting worse. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This study is an interventional study planning to enroll 762 participants. Participants will receive either pegozafermin or a placebo (an inactive substance) through subcutaneous injections.
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for fibrosis regression from baseline through Month 24, and for disease progression for up to 5 years.
