Phase 3 trial of semaglutide in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis

Once-weekly semaglutide significantly improved liver histology in patients with MASH and fibrosis, compared to placebo. It also achieved substantial weight loss, although gastrointestinal side effects were more common. Semaglutide improved noninvasive liver markers, though the high placebo response underscores the need for more precise monitoring tools.
