Prof. Frank M. Sacks discussing the role that Pioglitazone plays as a relevant #PPAR agonist
Prof Roden, Germany explains why PPAR’s are interesting therapeutic targets not only to improve adipose tissue function but also for the liver. The approach can go beyond the improvement of liver function and aim at a more systemic approach with cardiovascular benefits.
Prof Sacks, USA reviews the available data about PPAR alpha delta and the Elafibranor clinical program (RESOVE-IT). The interim results were presented earlier this year. They are somewhat disappointing (especially regarding the primary liver outcome).
Prof Sacks, USA reviews the available data about PPAR gamma agonist (Pioglitazone) especially data from the PROACTIVE study published in the Lancet in 2005
Prof Sacks, USA summarises what we know about the PPARs lipid effects. If the strongest evidence is with PPAR-alpha agonists for which the main lipid effect is lowering triglycerids, the are interesting information to discuss about PPAR-delta (Seladelpar).
Prof. Frank Tacke discusses a paper in press in the Journal of Hepatology regarding the role of PPAR’s in experimental models and how these PPAR’s affect the progression of liver disease.
Prof. Rautou, France, discusses a critical component of the diagnosis and management of NASH: biomarkers. There are 2 aspects: fibrosis and diagnosis. Diagnosis is a field of investigations. Microvesicles could play a role.
Prof Jean-François Dufour, Switzerland, addresses the important problem of comorbidities in NASH management including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer. This video was filmed in Boston during the Liver meeting 2019.
