Since the US Food and Drug Administration’s acceptance of Madrigal Pharmaceutical’s (Nasdaq: MDGL) new drug application (NDA) and priority review for its THR-β agonist (resmetirom) in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in September 2023, the company has taken steps to fortify its leadership and financial position to gear up for the imminent launch of resmetirom.

The measures initiated by Madrigal for the launch are expected to set the tone for future launches of NASH therapies by other small companies, according to data and analytics company GlobalData.

In a pivotal move aligning with its vision for resmetirom, Madrigal made strategic changes in its leadership with the addition of two seasoned Sanofi alumni; Bill Sibold as chief executive officer (CEO) and Carole Huntsman as chief commercial officer (CCO).
