    Listen to the news
    • Suzhou Ribo Life Science Co. Ltd. recently announced that its siRNA partnership with Madrigal Pharmaceuticals achieved a first candidate drug nomination for RNA-based liver disease therapeutics targeting metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), enabling the start of IND-enabling studies.

    The most relevant recent update alongside this siRNA milestone is the new Rezdiffra data presented at EASL 2026, which reinforced signals on liver and cardiometabolic biomarkers in MASH.

    While consensus leans constructive, the lowest analyst estimates highlight that heavy dependence on Rezdiffra could still cap outcomes, even with the new siRNA news. Those analysts were previously modeling about US$2.9 billion in 2029 revenue and roughly US$600.4 million in earnings, which is a far more cautious path than some peers expect and could shift again as the RNA program progresses.
