Abstrakt: | A recent study conducted by researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University has found that obeticholic acid (OCA) shows promise as a treatment for pre-cirrhotic liver fibrosis due to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The study analyzed data from the phase III REGENERATE trial and found that OCA led to significant improvements in fibrosis and NASH resolution compared to a placebo. The study also found that OCA was generally well-tolerated with low rates of adverse events. These findings suggest that OCA may have a positive benefit:risk profile for patients with pre-cirrhotic liver fibrosis due to NASH. [Extracted from the article] |
