Early trial tests if lowering insulin can shrink fatty liver

NCT ID NCT07403604

Summary

This early-stage study aims to understand if lowering high insulin levels for one week can reduce the liver's production of new fat, a key driver of fatty liver disease. Researchers will compare a drug called diazoxide against a placebo in 25 adults with obesity, insulin resistance, and a fatty liver. The main goal is to gather knowledge about the disease process, not to treat participants' conditions.
