The present disclosure relates to RNAi agents, e.g., double stranded RNAi agents, able to inhibit l7P-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase type 13 (HSD17B13 or 17β-Η8013) gene expression. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions that include HSD17B13 RNAi agents and methods of use thereof. The HSD17B13 RNAi agents disclosed herein may be conjugated to targeting ligands to facilitate the delivery' to cells, including to hepatocytes. Delivery7 of the HSD17B13 RNAi agents in vivo provides for inhibition of HSD17B13 gene expression. The RNAi agents can be used in methods of treatment of HSD17B13-related diseases and disorders, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), hepatic fibrosis, and alcoholic or non-alcoholic liver diseases, including cirrhosis.
