Summary

This study tests whether a daily pill called resmetirom can prevent serious liver problems in people with NASH-related cirrhosis (scarring of the liver). About 845 adults with well-compensated cirrhosis (still functioning liver) will receive either the drug or a placebo for several years. The goal is to see if the drug delays or prevents events like liver failure, need for transplant, or death.
