In addition to this study, Akero Therapeutics has two ongoing Phase 3 clinical trials: SYNCHRONY Histology and SYNCHRONY Real-World studies for patients with pre-cirrhotic MASH (F2-F3 fibrosis) or MASH (F1-F3 fibrosis) or MASLD (Metabolic Associated Steatohepatitis due to Lipoprotein Metabolism Disorder), and another Phase 3 clinical trial called SYNCHRONY Outcomes study for patients with compensated cirrhosis due to MASH (F4 fibrosis) which is scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2024. These studies build upon the positive results of the HARMONY and SYMMETRY Phase 2b clinical trials.
