About the company
Akero Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage company. The Company is developing transformational treatments for patients with serious metabolic diseases marked by high unmet medical need, including metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), a disease without any approved therapies. Efruxifermin (EFX), is its lead product candidate for MASH, which is being evaluated in the ongoing phase IIb SYMMETRY, phase III SYNCHRONY Histology, and phase III SYNCHRONY real-world studies. The phase III SYNCHRONY program builds on the results of two phase IIb clinical trials, the HARMONY study in patients with pre-cirrhotic MASH and the SYMMETRY study in patients with cirrhosis due to MASH. EFX is an analog of fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), which is an endogenously expressed hormone that protects against cellular stress and regulates metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins throughout the body. EFX is designed to offer convenient once-weekly dosing.
