Effect of Bempedoic Acid on Liver Fat in Individuals With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Type 2 Diabetes

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of liver conditions ranging from liver steatosis (NAFL), steatohepatitis (NASH), advanced liver fibrosis and ultimately leads to cirrhosis in a significant proportion of individuals. NAFLD is intimately associated with insulin resistance and associated disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome and dyslipidemia. Bempedoic acid, an ATP-citrate lyase inhibitor, is recently approved for patients with dyslipidemia as a second line drug. Bempedoic acid reduces liver fat in mice model of NASH. Data regarding the effect of bempedoic acid on human liver fat are scarce. Therefore, the current study is planned to evaluate the effect of bempedoic acid versus standard treatment on liver and pancreatic fat content in patients with NAFLD
