Inventiva Publishes results on predictive biomarker in MASH in journal

Inventiva announced publication in the peer-reviewed medical journal Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, of its analysis on new non-invasive biomarker signatures predictive of histology response following treatment with lanifibranor (pan-PPAR agonist) in patients with MASH and fibrosis. While there are multiple diagnostic scores currently available, we are encouraged to learn that Inventiva's test suggested better predictive accuracy than existing options including FIB4. With recruitment in the phase 3 (NATiV3) trial of lanifibranor in MASH now completed, the company has a clear path towards topline phase 3 results in 2H26. We reiterate our € 7 TP and Buy rating.
