  • Overview

    MASH is a serious, chronic, and progressive condition that will soon become the leading cause of liver transplantation and a significant contributor to liver cancer development. The FDA’s recent approval of a novel liver-directed therapy (thyroid hormone receptor for the treatment of "at-risk" MASH) presents a much-anticipated opportunity but comes with clinical decision-making challenges for clinicians. This symposium will provide practical, interactive discussions on the use of noninvasive tests (NITs) to identify patients who are most likely to benefit from this new treatment, namely patients with "at-risk" MASH, and those who should not receive this treatment, as well as how to initiate and monitor therapy.
