Participants Caregivers Investigators
Select patients will be randomized in 1:1 manner to a double-blind, 12-week lead-in treatment period. Only investigators, patients, and the Sponsor will be blinded to treatment assignment during the double-blind treatment period.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Double-blind 80 mg Daily

For patients assigned to double-blind treatment and who completed Week 52 and 56 of MAESTRO-NAFLD-1, double-blind resmetirom 80 mg for first 12 weeks followed by open-label resmetirom 100 mg for weeks 12-52

Open-label

For patients assigned to open-label treatment and who completed Week 52 and 56 of MAESTRO-NAFLD-1, open-label resmetirom at same dose as MGL-3196-14 for an additional 52 weeks. NASH cirrhosis patients may receive open-label resmetirom for an additional 52 weeks (ie, 52 weeks in MGL-3196-14 and 104 weeks in MGL-3196-18).

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* For patients who completed MAESTRO-NAFLD-1, completed the Week 52 visit, and completed the Week 56 visit within 90 days of the Extension Day 1 visit, and are willing to participate in MAESTRO-NAFLD-OLE and provide written informed consent.
* For patients who screen failed MAESTRO-NASH, must provide written informed consent for MAESTRO-NAFLD-OLE and must have screened and met all eligibility requirements for MAESTRO-NASH within 90 days of the Extension Day 1 visit for MAESTRO-NAFLD-OLE and have a liver biopsy that is ineligible for MAESTRO-NASH within 6 months of the Extension Day 1 visit. Eligible liver biopsy for MAESTRO-NAFLD-OLE must have one of the following results:

* NAS = 3, steatosis 1, ballooning 1, inflammation 1, OR NAS = 3, ballooning 0, with F1B, F2 or F3
* NAS ≥ 4, at least 1 in all NAS components, F1A or F1C, PRO-C3 ≤ 14 (NASH, but ineligible for MAESTRO-NASH)
* Compensated NASH cirrhosis based on biopsy at screening of MAESTRO-NASH and baseline of MAESTRO-NAFLD-OLE, including Child Pugh-A (score 5-6), MELD \<12, albumin ≥3.2, and bilirubin \<2
* For patients who screen failed from MAESTRO-NASH OUTCOMES and de novo patients, must have documented CP-A/B (score \<8) NASH cirrhosis (including minimal decompensation) and MELD \<15 unless MELD \>=15 based on non-cirrhotic parameters. MAESTRO-NASH OUTCOMES screen failures must have screened and met all eligibility requirements for MAESTRO-NASH OUTCOMES within 90 days of the Extension Day 1 visit for MAESTRO-NAFLD-OLE .

Exclusion Criteria

* A history of significant alcohol consumption for a period of more than 3 consecutive months within 1 year prior to Extension Day 1.
* Diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma or other carcinomas that may prevent participation in the Extension study.
* Chronic liver diseases
* Has an active autoimmune disease
* Any other condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would impede compliance, hinder completion of the study, compromise the well-being of the patient, or interfere with the study outcomes.
