Zydus Lifesciences

Summary

CNBC TV18 reported that Zydus Lifesciences' investigational drug saroglitazar showed higher MASH resolution rates than placebo in a phase 2b trial. Zydus Therapeutics said the drug achieved resolution of steatohepatitis without worsening of fibrosis in 39.1% of patients receiving the 4 mg dose and 32.4% receiving the 2 mg dose. A phase 2b trial is a mid-stage study that tests a drug's dose and effect in patients before larger trials. Steatohepatitis is a liver condition with inflammation and fat build-up, and fibrosis means scarring of the liver. The report gives the share of patients on each dose who met that measure, but not the placebo figure or the number of patients in the trial.
