Pemafibrate improves hepatic inflammation function and fibrosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a one-year observational study

摘要

To optimize the long-term outcomes of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), long-term therapy is important to prevent cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Pemafibrate, a novel selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α modulator, is a promising therapeutic agent for patients with NAFLD. However, only short-term clinical studies are currently available. The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients with NAFLD treated with pemafibrate.
