“This is a dynamic period for Sagimet as we explore the therapeutic potential of FASN inhibition across different indications,” said David Happel, Chief Executive Officer of Sagimet. “As part of our MASH development program targeting cirrhosis of the liver, we have initiated a Phase 1 PK trial evaluating the compatibility of a once-daily combination of denifanstat and resmetirom. We plan to use this data, if positive, to advance the combination to proof-of-concept studies in MASH patients with F4 fibrosis. Additionally, we initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial of our second FASN inhibitor, TVB-3567, for development of an acne indication. We continue to explore how FASN inhibition could benefit patients living with conditions that are currently underserved by approved therapies,” he concluded.
