MikeFit_NJ said:The liver data is among the strongest non-weight findings in the class.
ATTAIN trial (survodutide) context for liver and MASH: survodutide, a GLP-1/glucagon dual agonist, showed -18.7% body weight at 46 weeks in the Phase 3 ATTAIN trial. NASH resolution was achieved in ~60% of patients[1].
This is relevant to liver and MASH because survodutide's glucagon agonism specifically targets hepatic lipid metabolism — making it potentially the best-in-class agent for NASH/MAFLD comorbid with obesity.

Following on from KevinCompounds — and this may be the naive question:
What did you change at the same time, and can you separate the two now?

Liver imaging follow-up for liver and MASH: FibroScan at baseline showed CAP score 338 dB/m (moderate steatosis) and stiffness 10.8 kPa (possible fibrosis). Diagnosed with NAFLD.
After 12 months: CAP dropped to 241 dB/m (minimal steatosis) and stiffness normalized to 5.9 kPa. Hepatologist says the liver is essentially healing itself as the metabolic stress resolves.
GLP-1 agonists may become first-line NASH therapy. The Phase 3 data on semaglutide for NASH is very promising.

True, with the qualification that this is a self-selected group. The people for whom it did not work post less, and that shapes everything we think we know.
