Long-term Follow-up to Determine Outcome in Liver Disease (LOVE Study)

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The rational to conduct the LOVE study builds on the lack of available data on outcomes in steatotic liver disease in well characterized patients over a time frame of several years. At current limited data on liver-specific and overall outcome in patients with MASLD, MetALD and ALD are available. Liver histology is the only accepted surrogate to reasonably likely predict outcomes in patients with non-cirrhotic liver disease and is currently used in regulatory trials. To overcome the limitations of liver biopsy and use validated non-invasive tests (NITs) to predict outcomes, the LOVE study will be conducted based on existing cohort studies in well pheno- and genotyped patients and will inform on the relevant outcomes based on baseline and ongoing biomarker assessment. The overarching goal is to qualify a NIT for patient identification and preventive measures in the regulatory context.
