Official title

A Phase 2a, Randomized, Active-Comparator-Controlled, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Efinopegdutide (MK-6024) in Individuals With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The principal goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of efinopegdutide in liver fat reduction in participants with NAFLD. The primary hypotheses are that efinopegdutide is superior to semaglutide, or that efinopegdutide is superior to semaglutide by at least 10% with respect to mean relative reduction from baseline in liver fat content (LFC) after 24 weeks.
