The glucagon and GLP-1 receptor dual agonist DD01 for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and steatohepatitis (DD01-DN-02): 12-week results from a randomised, double-blind, multicentre, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial.

Why it matters

Rapid liver fat reduction is a key early efficacy signal in MASH, and DD01’s dual agonism may offer metabolic benefits beyond GLP-1 alone. For specialists managing MASLD/MASH, these 12-week data support further investigation of DD01 as a potential disease-modifying therapy.
