As we enter the second half of 2024, we are more steadfast than ever in our commitment to delivering innovative therapies for liver disease patients. Last month, we initiated our second Phase 3 clinical trial in #MASH in our ENLIGHTEN program. These two clinical trials, along with our ongoing Phase 3 trial in #SHTG, will evaluate the safety and efficacy of our investigational #FGF21 analog and bring us one step closer to delivering this potential best-in-class therapy to patients.

Yesterday was Global #FattyLiverDay! At 89bio, we remain dedicated to advancing research and developing our innovative treatment for patients with #MASH, a severe form of fatty liver disease. It is important to continue raising awareness of this chronic, progressive disease which fat accumulates in the liver, ultimately leading to fibrosis (or scarring). MASH is often a silent disease with few or no symptoms, making it particularly dangerous as it can lead to more severe liver damage, including cirrhosis and liver cancer if left unchecked.
