Study Summary

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is one of the most common chronic liver diseases. The cause of NASH is not completely understood and currently there is no effective treatment for this disease. An effective approach to treatment is needed since without treatment this disease may progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis. Obesity is one of the most important risk factors for NASH and weight reduction is generally recommended as an initial step in its management. However, there are very limited data on the efficacy of weight reduction as a treatment for NASH. Data from uncontrolled trials using poorly defined primary outcome measures and patient populations and nonstandardized weight loss interventions suggest that modest weight loss may improve fatty liver disease. The objective of this project is to conduct a randomized controlled trial of weight reduction in the management of NASH using a combination of diet, exercise, and behavior modification.
