MDGL Delivers Blockbuster Rezdiffra Growth and Patent Extension, Signals Continued Leadership in MASH
Rezdiffra Sales Surge, Establishing a New Industry Benchmark
In its latest third-quarter results, Madrigal Pharmaceuticals reported that Rezdiffra, its flagship treatment for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), posted net sales of $287.3 million. This marks a dramatic increase from $62.18 million in the prior year’s quarter and propels annualized sales above the $1 billion mark. With over 29,500 patients now on Rezdiffra and more than 10,000 healthcare providers prescribing the drug, the therapy is rapidly gaining traction as a first-line treatment option for MASH.
Beyond U.S. expansion, Madrigal also announced the commercial launch of Rezdiffra in Germany, following European Commission approval, cementing its role as the first and only approved MASH therapy in the EU. Notably, this international growth complements strong U.S. uptake and indicates sustained global momentum.

Patent Protection into 2045 Provides Competitive Moat
Madrigal fortified its long-term position with the recent listing of a new U.S. patent for Rezdiffra in the FDA’s Orange Book, securing protection into 2045. This move safeguards commercial exclusivity around Rezdiffra’s weight-based dosing regimen and supports ongoing investment and innovation as MASH treatment evolves.
Pipeline Expands with Global Licensing of Oral GLP-1 Therapy
Strategic development continues as Madrigal closed a global licensing agreement with CSPC Pharma to bring an oral GLP-1 (MGL-2086) into its pipeline, designed for combination with Rezdiffra. This initiative recognizes the growing consensus that MASH will require multifaceted approaches, and it signals Madrigal’s intention to lead the next wave of therapeutic innovation in the field. The new agent is expected to enter clinical trials in 2026, broadening treatment possibilities for patients who currently have limited options.
Robust Cash Position Supports Future Growth and R&D
Madrigal exited the quarter with $1.11 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, strengthened by a recent financing deal. This war chest positions the company to weather future R&D investments, commercialization pushes, and strategic opportunities without immediate liquidity concerns.
Industry Leadership Backed by Strong Clinical Presence
Madrigal’s influence is further evident in its prominent participation at the upcoming American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) Liver Meeting, where 15 scientific abstracts have been accepted—including several high-profile presentations on Rezdiffra. Meanwhile, a pivotal Phase 3 trial is underway to potentially extend Rezdiffra’s use to patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis, a population with dramatically increased risk of liver-related mortality.
Takeaway: Foundation for Sustained Growth as MASH Market Expands
Madrigal’s latest quarter reveals more than just record sales—its extended patent, expanding international presence, and evolving pipeline put the company on a trajectory for long-term leadership in MASH therapeutics. With the number of diagnosed patients on the rise and strong adoption of Rezdiffra, investors and healthcare watchers should monitor how the upcoming clinical data and ongoing launches further shape this emerging specialty pharma success story.
