Understanding the science behind liver diseases, such as metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), can be difficult – especially with the many acronyms we use in this disease state. At 89bio, we recognize education is a crucial component in supporting patients with liver disease.

About us
89bio is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies for the treatment of liver and cardio-metabolic diseases. The company’s lead product candidate, BIO89-100, is a specifically engineered glycoPEGylated analog of FGF21. BIO89-100 is being developed for the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and severe hypertriglyceridemia (SHTG). Recent Phase 1b/2a data show BIO89-100 demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile and robust reductions in liver fat and key lipid markers when dosed weekly or once every two weeks in patients with NASH.

#DYK the prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) continues to steadily increase globally? This statistic drives our team at 89bio to develop therapeutic options for a diverse and growing patient population in #MASH. For those with MASH, the major risk is the progression to fibrosis, which can cause cirrhosis of the liver. Therefore, the primary treatment goal in MASH is reducing liver fibrosis. Learn how 89bio is committed to developing innovative therapies for the treatment of MASH with advanced fibrosis: https://lnkd.in/grqTsDmY #CardioMetabolicDiseases #Innovation

How much do you know about fibroblast growth factor 21, known as FGF21? Often referred to as a master metabolic regulator, FGF21 is an endogenous hormone, meaning it is produced by your body – specifically your liver. Importantly, FGF21 has broad metabolic effects and therefore has the potential to address underlying metabolic issues that drive #CardioMetabolic diseases. Learn more about the science and how our FGF21 candidate shows promise in #MASH and #SHTG: https://lnkd.in/gCZYq9u

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, or MASH, is often called a “silent disease,” but with a steadily increasing global prevalence rate, our team at 89bio is committed to making noise about the disease and its consequences. Although the disease often advances quietly throughout the body, if left unchecked MASH can lead to serious complications such as cirrhosis and liver cancer.
