Thank you to Madrigal for sponsoring the Medication Review Video Module.
In this GHAPP Medication Review video, Robin Soto, a board-certified nurse practitioner at UC San Diego Health Hepatology, explains the mechanism of action of Resmetirom, the first and only FDA-approved drug for the treatment of MASH in adults with mild to moderate fibrosis (F2-F3). Robin describes how Resmetirom, a liver-directed, thyroid hormone receptor beta agonist, targets liver fat accumulation, promoting fatty acid oxidation and improving cholesterol metabolism. She highlights its anti-inflammatory effects and ability to reduce liver fibrosis by selectively activating receptors in the liver, while minimizing systemic side effects.
