Hoth reports positive preclinical HT-VA study data for GDNF in fatty liver disease
  • Hoth Therapeutics reported positive preclinical HT-VA study results on April 14, 2026, from a CRADA program with US Department of Veterans Affairs and Emory University.
  • Data were already presented in this announcement, showing GDNF shifted liver fat biology toward lower fat buildup in a model of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease.
  • Results indicated GDNF outperformed semaglutide on key liver-fat genetic signals, supporting a differentiated mechanism beyond weight-loss-focused approaches.
  • Readout positions GDNF as a potential next-generation candidate for MAFLD and obesity, expanding Hoth’s focus beyond dermatology and oncology.
  • Next steps include additional preclinical validation, evaluation of clinical development paths, and pursuit of partnerships to accelerate development.
