Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Radiologic liver parametersup to 24 weeks

Number of participants reported change in liver fat content from baseline, as quantified by fibroscan

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in body weight compare with baseline in 6 monthsup to 24 weeks

Body Weight

Change in waist circumference compare with baseline in 6 monthsup to 24 weeks

Waist Circumference

Fibrosis 4 score levels compare with baseline in 6 monthsup to 24 weeks

Fibrosis Scoring \< 1.45 indicates Fibrosis Stage 0-2, 1.45 to 3.25 is deemed indeterminate fibrosis stage, \> 3.25 indicates Fibrosis stage 3-4

Non-Alchoholic Fatty Liver Disease Fibrosis Score levels compare with baseline in 6 monthsup to 24 weeks

Non-Alchoholic Fatty Liver Disease Fibrosis Scoring, \< -1.455 indicates Fibrosis Stage 0-2,

-1.455 to 0.676 is considered indeterminate fibrosis stage, \> 0.676 indicates Fibrosis Stage 3-4

Frequency of adverse events in 6 monthsup to 24 weeks

Safety

HbA1c% levels compare with baseline in 6 monthsup to 24 weeks
