Clinical TrialsThe more impactful catalyst for Akero is coming with topline data from SYNCHRONY Histology, a 52-week trial in biopsy-confirmed F2/3 patients; if positive, data from the trial will support accelerated approval in the US.
Competitive PositioningThe discontinuation of zalfermin by Novo Nordisk leaves Akero's EFX in a strong competitive position in the MASH market.
Market PotentialThere is currently only one FDA approved treatment for F2/F3 MASH, highlighting the potential for Akero's EFX in addressing an unmet need.
