First in human proof-of-concept Phase I/ II Trial in MASH
MASH or Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) is a liver disease with a significant unmet medical need. Effecting an estimated 35 million people worldwide, it is the most chronic liver condition in the West and patient numbers are growing rapidly. It is the leading cause of liver transplants due to the lack of approved therapies with the market for MASH therapy expected to reach $27.2B by 2029. Recent pre-clinical programs have highlighted the adipogenic, anti-fibrotic, and anti-tumoral effects of GF-1002 positioning it as a promising treatment candidate for MASH. By targeting MASH, Genflow Biosciences stands to benefit from a clear regulatory pathway that could lead to accelerated development and the potential for conditional fast-track approval.
