Ki vehet részt

• Male or female adults ≥18 to ≤75 years of age at the time of screening, and at least the legal age of consent in countries where it is > 18 years
• Patients meeting criteria for Child-Pugh category A without history of previous decompensation event
• Compensated Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) cirrhosis diagnosed by 1 of the following:; The most recent liver biopsy (≤ 5 years prior to randomisation) showing cirrhosis with steatohepatitis. There is no evidence for a competing aetiology; Historical biopsy (≤ 5 years prior to randomisation) showed steatohepatitis with F1 to F3 fibrosis, but now with cirrhosis either by NITs or biopsy. There is no evidence of competing aetiology. If there is a current biopsy (≤ 6 months prior to randomisation), and it does not show evidence of steatosis or steatohepatitis, there is at least 1 coexisting or history of metabolic comorbidity; The most recent liver biopsy (≤ 5 years prior to randomisation) showing cirrhosis with steatosis. There are at least 2 coexisting metabolic comorbidities or history of metabolic comorbidities, including obesity and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). There is no evidence for a competing aetiology; Historical biopsy (≤ 5 years prior to randomisation) showed steatosis, but now with cirrhosis, either by NITs or biopsy. If there is a current biopsy (≤ 6 months prior to randomisation), and it does not show evidence of steatosis or steatohepatitis, there are at least 2 coexisting or history of metabolic comorbidities including obesity and/or T2DM. There is no evidence of competing aetiology; Trial participant with cirrhosis with current or previous imaging showing evidence of steatosis (by liver ultrasound or CT scan or FibroScan® with CAP ≥288 dB/m or MRI-PDFF ≥5%). There is no liver histology available. There are at least 2 coexisting or history of metabolic comorbidities, including obesity and/or T2DM. There is no evidence of competing aetiology; Cryptogenic cirrhosis' (either by NITs or biopsy; not to exceed 20% of trial participants) without current or previous evidence of steatosis by imaging or steatosis/steatohepatitis by histology. There are at least 2 coexisting or history of metabolic comorbidities, including obesity and/or T2DM. There is no evidence of competing aetiology; Further inclusion criteria apply
