This announcement is very encouraging. I noted that it was a press release from a company that stands to make money if this drug works, so I wish they had linked to some study showing the drug is effective.

Also, I already have cirrhosis, not just fibrosis. Something that breaks down scar tissue and allows its replacement with normal tissue would be very helpful to me, but this press release doesn't say whether the drug does that or not. Instead, it just seems to say the drug slows down the process of fibrosis.

Not what you're looking for?

Would you consider being in a clinical trial? Are you aware that without trials there is no hope of getting any treatment for NASH?

Why should any of us volunteer to do an educational video or be an advocate about liver disease?...
