This includes:
- Pharmacodynamic biomarkers, such as tripalmitin, to confirm FASN inhibition and pathway engagement by denifanstat
- Predictive biomarkers incorporating metabolomic and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) blood profiling to identify a ‘signature’ that predicts improvements in markers of NASH disease in patients taking denifanstat.
We will continue to validate these biomarkers with the liver biopsy results from our ongoing FASCINATE-2 Phase 2b clinical trial and anticipate developing complementary diagnostic tools to benefit patients, clinicians and payors.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” top_padding=”5%” bottom_padding=”5%” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][image_with_animation image_url=”2617″ alignment=”center” animation=”Fade In” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
