3 NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE () ISOLATED STEATOSIS NON- WITH MILD FIBROSIS CVD WITH ADVANCED FIBROSIS CIRRHOSIS HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA is an umbrella term that encompasses the spectrum of fatty liver disease, from isolated steatosis to cirrhosis and liver cancer with underlying CVD risk.

4 NATURAL HISTORY OF ~70-75% Isolated Fatty Liver Fatty Liver with Mild inflammation Possible sampling variability with some risk of progression 1- None to very minimal progression to fibrosis 2- No risk of death compared with the general population ~20-25% ~11% over 15 years, but significant variability 1- risk of death compared with general population 1- Cardiovascular 2- Malignancy 3- Liver-related 2- with fibrosis portends worse prognosis 1- Fibrosis progression a/w DM, severe IR, weight gain>5kg, rising ALT, AST Cirrhosis HCC ~7.2% over 6.5 years Decompensation ~19-45% over 7-10 years Modified from Torres DM et al. Features, diagnosis, and treatment of. Clin Gastro Hepatol 2012;10: Progression of isolated steatosis to cirrhosis is very rare Fatty liver with inflammation but not may progress but at a slower rate than with fibrosis is at greater risk for disease progression Patients with and metabolic syndrome are also an enriched population for disease progression / is now the second leading cause for liver transplantation in the U.S. Hierarchy of Histologic Features Associated with disease progression and mortality A INCREASED MORTALITY OR LT Predictors Fibrosis, stage 1 Fibrosis, stage 2 Fibrosis, stage 3 Fibrosis, stage 4 Age (years) Diabetes (yes) Smoking Never Former Current Statins use (yes) Hazard Ratio 95% Cl of HR P value 1.18, , , , < , 1.08 < , , , 4.10 < , B Decreased Increased risk risk C INCREASED RISK OF LIVER-RELATED EVENTS Predictors Hazard Ratio 95% Cl of HR P value Fibrosis, stage , Fibrosis, stage , Fibrosis, stage , <.001 Fibrosis, stage , < Decreased Increased risk risk Major Prognosis Factors Ballooning Portal Fibrosis inflammation

6 TREATMENT Diet, lifestyle modification and exercise remain the top priority. Ultimate goal is to achieve 10% weight loss as this has been shown to improve all histopathologic parameters of. No approved therapies for the treatment of. Diet and exercise are not always satisfactory options, and there is a lack of treatment. To address this unmet need, enrollment in one of the clinical trials underway can be considered. : KEY CONSIDERATIONS is the liver manifestation of metabolic diseases. patients are often obese, have type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. is the underlying cause of cirrhosis and its complications: treating is the appropriate approach to prevent progression to cirrhosis. Liver biopsy is required to diagnose. How to reverse : stop the disease activity i.e. necroinflammation (ballooning + inflammation) that is the driver leading to liver fibrosis and progressive liver fibrosis. therapies should be efficacious against both the underlying liver disease and comorbid conditions associated with such as insulin resistance, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. Because is a chronic and silent disease, therapies should be safe and well tolerated. the-nash-education-program@genfit.com _Education The Education Program
