Examples of metabolic issues include obesity, diabetes, or high blood pressure\n\nMASLD -Metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease - also known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, is a condition where fat builds up in the liver due to metabolic issues. Excess liver fat can cause inflammation, scaring, also known as fibrosis, and over time, lead to liver failure.\n\nMASLD can have different severities. Non-fibrotic MASLD is when there is a small amount of fat in the liver and usually does not cause major problems. However, it can get worse over time and can develop into fibrotic MASLD.\n\nMASLD is very common, about one-third of the world's population is affected. In Switzerland, it is predicted that one-quarter of the Swiss population is affected by it. MASLD can affect anyone who has any metabolic issues, however it seems like some medications, such as cancer treatments, could play a role in MASLD development.\n\nStudying MASLD is important because it is very common. Learning more about it can help doctors find better ways to diagnose and treat the condition.\n\nFurthermore, it is important to find out who would be more likely to develop MASLD. People who are more likely could maybe do some regular testing to diagnose it early and start treatment before it is worsening. Early diagnosis is important since liver damage can be reversed with lifestyle changes, diet or medication.\n\nCancer survivors are at a higher risk of developing MASLD due to changes in their metabolism, lifestyle as well as side effects of cancer treatments. However, MASLD is often underdiagnosed in cancer survivors, even though it can increase the risk of future health complications.\n\nCurrently, liver biopsy is the standard method of diagnosing MASLD, as it provides the most accurate results. However, liver biopsy is uncomfortable and carries risks like pain and infections.\n\nNewer non-invasive technologies, such as ultrasound-based vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE, also known as FibroScan®) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), show promise in detecting liver fibrosis earlier and more safely. However, they are not yet widely used because they are not as precise as biopsy at detecting liver inflammation.\n\nEVALUATE is an observational study performed by the Department of Clinical Research at the University of Bern. In collaboration with the Department of Hepatology, Inselspital, University Hospital of Bern and the Department of Radiology, University Cancer Centre Inselspital.\n\nEVALUATE will use two of the newer, less painful methods - VCTE and MRI to check for signs of fibrotic MASLD. Combined with a blood test, a score can be calculated to see if someone is at high-risk for advanced MASLD.\n\nIn the case that the results from the main study are uncertain, the participant will be asked to participate in an MRI sub study.\n\nThis study will help improve ways to check for liver disease in cancer survivors, leading to early detection and quicker treatment. Eventually the information of this study could help create better guidelines and improve care for cancer survivors at risk of liver problems.",[54,27,55],"Breast Cancer Survivors","MASLD\u002FMASH (Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease \u002F Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis)",[57,58,59,60,61],"MASLD","Cancer survivorship","Survivorship care","Non-invasive imaging","Liver fibrosis screening","2025-12-01",{"date":64,"type":34},"2025-12-12",{"date":66,"type":34},"2025-11-14",{"date":68,"type":20},"2027-11-30",{"name":70,"class":41},"University of Bern",1]
