About this Poster:

NGM313 is a humanized monoclonal antibody activator of β-klotho/FGFR1c that has been shown to reduce HOMA-IR in obese subjects. This study compared the effects of a single dose of NGM313 vs. daily pioglitazone (PIO) on insulin sensitivity, liver fat content (LFC) and lipids in insulin resistant, obese subjects with increased liver fat.
