New drugs for NASH

Somaya A. M. Albhaisi et al.

Summary: NASH is a form of liver disease characterized by inflammation and hepatocyte injury in the presence of hepatic steatosis, potentially leading to cirrhosis. Although weight loss and lifestyle modifications are currently the first-line treatment, the development of effective drugs for NASH is urgently needed as these methods may not be effective in advanced cases. There has been significant growth in drug development targeting pathological pathways in NASH in the past decade.
