Brief Summary

Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients are at high-risk for advanced fibrosis (AF) due to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), recently renamed Metabolic dysfunction-Associated Liver Disease (MASLD). Thus, patients with T2DM are recognized as a priority target for the screening of MASLD-related advanced fibrosis and a systematic screening for AF is currently recommended in T2DM patients using FIB-4 and liver stiffness measurement (LSM).The main objective of the project is to investigate the ability of baseline non-invasive biomarkers to discriminate patients with a progression of MASLD from patients without progression of MASLD among patients with T2DM and to investigate the association between clinical outcomes related to the natural evolution of MASLD and T2DM and baseline biomarkers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression of MASLD for T2D and MASLD patients without AF at baseline (cohort A) or progression to confirmed diagnosis of cirrhosis for T2D and MASLD patients with presence of AF at baseline and without cirrhosis (cohort B).

    COHORT A = Composite outcome defined by either histological stage of fibrosis ≥ F3 if a liver biopsy is performed in clinical care or concordant patented Fibrotest≥ F3 and LSM≥ 8 kPa according to EASL guidelines or overt imaging evidence of cirrhosis via ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), or MRI COHORT B = Histological stage of fibrosis 4 or imaging evidence of cirrhosis via ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), or MRI

    One time visit planned according to standard care at 4 years+/- 6 months after inclusion in the NAFLD-CARE study

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Assessment of clinical events associated with the natural history of MASLD and T2D for both cohorts

    One time visit planned according to standard care at 4 years+/- 6 months after inclusion in the NAFLD-CARE study

Study Arms (2)

Patients with T2D and MASLD without advanced fibrosis (AF) (COHORT A)

OTHER

Patients with T2D and MASLD without advanced fibrosis (AF) at baseline in the NAFLD-Care study.

Diagnostic Test: Non-invasive test for the screening of MASLD-related advanced fibrosis in patients with T2D.

Patients with T2D and MASLD, without diagnosis of cirrhosis (COHORT B)

OTHER

Patients with T2D and MASLD with presence of advanced fibrosis (AF) and without cirrhosis at baseline in the NAFLD-Care study

Diagnostic Test: Non-invasive test for the screening of MASLD-related advanced fibrosis in patients with T2D.

Interventions

* Non-invasive blood biological tests = NAFLD Fibrosis Score, FIB-4 score, FNI score, Agile3+ score, FASTscore, ELF, Fibrotest, Fibrometer if performed in clinical care * Non-invasive imaging = Transient elastography (FibroScan), Questionnaire assessing alcohol consumption

  • Bile duct obstruction as shown by imaging studies.
  • History of ingestion of medications known to produce steatosis in the previous 6 months.
  • Evidence of cirrhosis or previously known cirrhosis based on the results from previous liver biopsy or history of portal hypertension presented by ascites, hepatic encephalopathy or varices
  • Presence of regular and/or excessive use of alcohol (defined as \>30g/day for males and \>15g/day for females) for a period longer than 2 years at any times in the last 10 years
