6th NASH Roundtable™ Forum

Clinical Trials with Non-Invasive Tests (NITs) Instead of Histology: Fact or Fancy? 

November 5, 2022 | Washington, DC

NASH Roundtable forums are held twice a year, bringing together leading experts to facilitate advances in science, clinical research, and patient care for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The upcoming 6th Forum will facilitate a discussion on serum and imaging-based non-invasive testing, including regulatory considerations, within NAFLD/NASH clinical research.

Forum Topics to Include:

  • Where do we need to go with NITs?
  • Predicting patient response with serum and imaging-based NITs in NAFLD/NASH
  • Regulatory hurdles for NITs within drug development

About the NASH Roundtable™

The NASH Roundtable™ was established in 2018 as a platform to stimulate collaboration and build consensus towards validated biomarkers and endpoints and to support the development of effective and safe treatments. Today the Roundtable consists of distinguished physicians, researchers, and clinical development experts from three continents brought together by their common commitment to steward advances in science, clinical research, and therapeutics for fibrotic diseases.
