    Trial completion date:  Harmony: A Study of Efruxifermin in Non-Cirrhotic Subjects With Histologically Confirmed Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) (clinicaltrials.gov) -  May 11, 2021   
    P2b,  N=160, Recruiting, 
    EFX showed trends to reverse cirrhosis on semi-quantitative histopathologic assessment with significant reductions in key non-invasive markers of liver injury and fibrosis, and improved markers of glucose and lipid metabolism, consistent with results of the main study in F1–F3 NASH patients. Trial completion date: Mar 2027 --> Feb 2024

    [VIRTUAL] The role of reduction in liver fat content (MRI-PDFF) and ALT in predicting treatment response in NASH: A secondary analysis of the randomized, controlled BALANCED trial (Poster area) -  Apr 9, 2021 - Abstract #EASLILC2021EASL_ILC_914;    
    Background and aims: Efruxifermin (EFX) treatment resulted in significantly greater reduction in liver fat content (LFC) as assessed by MRI-PDFFafter 12wks compared to placebo, andwas associatedwith NASH resolution and fibrosis improvement at wk 16–20 liver biopsy assessment.1 Because of the consistently large reductions of liver fat, this study provides a unique dataset to evaluate the utility of a decline in serum ALTof ≥17 U/L among MRI-PDFF responders (≥30% decline) for predicting histologic response in NASH when used alone or combined with normalization of liver fat (≤5% by MRI-PDFF) at wk 12... Among MRI-PDFF responders, a decline in serum ALT of at least 17 U/L is a robust marker in predicting NASH resolution for EFX and potentially other metabolic therapies with a potent anti- steatotic effect.

    Journal:  Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-21 based therapies: A magic bullet for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)? (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 15, 2020   
    Targeting of the FGF21/FGFR/β-Klotho pathway may halt or reverse hepatic fat infiltration, inflammation and fibrosis.Areas Covered: This article summarizes preclinical and clinical data on the efficacy and safety of two FGF21 agonist therapies in developmentExpert Opinion: Preclinical and clinical data justify further investigation of FGF21 agonist therapies for the treatment of NAFLD. However, issues including injection site reactions and possible effects on bone homeostasis means that safety must be evaluated carefully.
