Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called ALN-CIDEB in 150 adults with MASH, a serious liver disease involving fat buildup and scarring.

Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo and be monitored for side effects and changes in liver health.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a treatment that reduces liver fat and scarring in people with MASH, potentially slowing or stopping liver damage.
