The CHALLENGE trial at ASCO 2025 showed that increased physical activity improves survival rates in colon cancer patients, with the exercise group demonstrating better health outcomes and survival rates compared to those receiving only health education. A phase 3 trial in The New England Journal of Medicine found that semaglutide significantly improves liver conditions in MASH patients, showing better resolution of steatohepatitis and fibrosis improvement compared to placebo.
