Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percent Change from Baseline in Liver Fat Content by Magnetic Resonance Imaging - Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) | Baseline, Week 32 | MRI-PDFF is an established method that enables quantification of fat content in the liver. The value of whole liver fat as assessed by MRI-PDFF is expressed in percentage (%). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Percent Change from Baseline in Liver Fat Content by Magnetic Resonance Imaging - Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) | Baseline, Week 52 |
| Percentage of Participants With Absence of MASH With no Worsening of Fibrosis on Liver Histology | Baseline, Week 52 |
| Percentage of Participants With ≥ 1 Point Decrease in Fibrosis Stage With No Worsening of MASH on Liver Histology | Baseline, Week 52 |
| Percentage of Participants With ≥ 1 Point Decrease in Fibrosis Stage on Liver Histology | Baseline, Week 52 |
| Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) | Baseline, Week 56 |
