AMRA To Share Baseline Results from ACCESS-ESLD @ AASLD’s The Liver Meeting 2024 If you’re in San Diego this week for the 75th annual AASLD’s The Liver Meeting (TLM), make sure to check out AMRA’s poster (#4137) today November 18 @ 1PM - where our own Dr. Mikael Forsgren will be sharing baseline results from the important ACCESS-ESLD study! ACCESS-ESLD is a Swedish multi-center study led by Linköping University that includes 150 adult patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing hepatocellular carcinoma surveillance. Over a duration of 2 years, patients will be assessed every 6 months with a comprehensive clinical examination and a whole-body MRI examination. The study shows that adverse muscle composition, the combination of low muscle volume and high muscle fat, is a highly prevalent phenotype (20%) in this patient group. This population presented with higher frailty, poorer physical performance, and worse health status regardless of muscle volume, underscoring the importance of considering muscle fat alongside muscle volume to identify vulnerable sarcopenic patient groups within liver disease. The study investigators hope that the findings of ACCESS-ESLD will continue the shift in management of liver disease towards employing more of a preemptive approach, by developing ways to monitor disease progression and severity while also identifying patients at risk for major adverse events or mortality. AMRA’s significant involvement in a hallmark study in the liver disease space such as this one embodies the company’s commitment to advancing both research and clinical care. Come find us at TLM 2024 to learn more about AMRA Medical and how the use of MRI-based body composition analysis is advancing disease research in liver disease and beyond! #AMRAMedical #TLM24 #TLMdX #LiU #ACCESSESLD #liverdisease #cirrhosis #clinicaltrials #precisionmedicine #MRI

AMRA is Gearing Up For ObesityWeek® 2024! We’re excited to see you all in San Antonio, TX for The Obesity Society’s 2024 edition of ObesityWeek®, which is set to kick off this Sunday! ObesityWeek®, which runs until November 6, is the global home of the latest developments in evidence-based obesity science. The event brings together researchers, clinicians, drug developers, and policy experts to help move the obesity field forward, and AMRA is proud to share our latest findings in the field at this important event. AMRA researchers will be presenting results from a recent study that unraveled hidden weight gain, adverse muscle composition, and cardiometabolic risk increases in antidepressant users. The study, which is part of the CoMorMent Initiative, was recently published in Obesity as an “Editor’s Choice” piece. You can learn more about the study by finding our poster no. 133 titled ‘Hidden Weight Gain, Adverse Muscle Composition and Cardiometabolic Risks in Antidepressant Users’ during the session on November 3rd at 07.30 CDT. Come connect with us at OW2024, or reach out to us at info@amramedical.com to learn more. We hope to see you in the Lone Star State next week! #AMRAMedical #OW2024 #goteamAMRA #bodycomposition #musclecomposition #obesity #weightloss #GLP1 #clinicaltrials #CoMorMent

New AMRA Medical research in Muscle & Nerve demonstrates the utility of MRI-based biomarkers in inflammatory myopathies. The recent study details the use of fat-referenced volumetric muscle composition measurements as reliable biomarkers of disease progression and treatment response in sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM), building upon AMRA’s increasing expertise in the neuromuscular disease space. AMRA’s success in demonstrating the utility of these fat-referenced MRI-based muscle composition biomarkers in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) and now in inflammatory myopathies such as sIBM is a testament to the rigor and reproducibility of these composite measurements, transcending various pathologies and allowing for the wide applicability of this biomarker suite to neuromuscular disease research in general.

🔬 AMRA Publishes Review Article in Renowned Cardiovascular Journal, “Circulation” 🫀 We are proud to share that a recent review primer - co-authored by our very own Jennifer Linge , PhD - was published in Circulation! The article explores the complex relationship between GLP-1-based therapies and muscle health, particularly in the context of using the drugs for weight reduction. As weight loss treatments reach new heights, understanding their impact on muscle composition & quality is crucial. The recently published primer summarizes contemporary evidence, generated by AMRA’s gold-standard MRI-based analysis technology, that indicates muscle composition changes associated with GLP-1-based therapies appear to be adaptive. These findings and more outlined by the authors aim to help ensure that the obesity field develops products with safety and the impact on vulnerable populations in mind. 📖 Read the full release announcing this publication here: https://lnkd.in/dSbYVSNv 📌 Follow us to learn more about AMRA Medical and how the use of MRI-based fat distribution and muscle composition analysis is advancing disease research in metabolic diseases and beyond. #HealthcareInnovation #MuscleHealth #GLP1s #PrecisionMedicine #Obesity #AMRAMedical #ClinicalResearch #BodyComposition #pharma #Circulation #MetabolicDisease #Sarcopenia #Type2Diabetes

AMRA is at WMS 2024! 🌍 From October 8th-12th, the World Muscle Society will be holding its 29th Annual Congress in Prague, Czechia - and you can catch AMRA Medical presenting their latest research findings in Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). The poster presents baseline data from the largest natural history study in FSHD using whole-body MRI - the CTRN FSHD France study - analyzed with the AMRAⓇ Researcher platform to validate new MRI-based outcome measures, define minimal clinically important changes, and establish FSHD characteristics useful for determining clinical trial eligibility criteria. Studies such as this one aim to accelerate FSHD drug development by fulfilling an increasing need for extensive natural history studies that describe disease characteristics and progression using methods that later will be used as clinical trial endpoints. AMRA is proud to be a part of WMS 2024, an important consortium working to make the world a better place for patients of NMDs, and is excited to share with the community how our MRI-based biomarkers are transforming drug trials in FSHD.
