Recruiting PHASE3 Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatohepatitis

New treatment option for Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatohepatitis

Official title LIVERAGE™ - Cirrhosis: A Study to Test Whether Survodutide Helps People With a Liver Disease Called NASH/MASH Who Have Cirrhosis

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06632457

What this study is testing

What is Survodutide?

Survodutide is an investigational medicine, given as an once-weekly injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis.

Also referred to as BI 456906.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have: A confirmed liver disease called non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or A confirmed liver disease called metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) BMI of 27 kg/m2 or more or 25 kg/m2 or more if the participant is Asian. People with a history of other chronic liver diseases or high alcohol intake cannot take part in this study.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
