Summary

This study is open to adults with a type of confirmed liver condition called compensated cirrhosis due to Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH). The purpose of this study is to find out how well a study medicine called BI 3802876 is tolerated in people with this condition. The study looks at how different doses of BI 3802876 are handled by the body. BI 3802876 is being developed to improve liver health in people living with this liver condition. Participants are put in 3 different dose groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants within a group get BI 3802876 or placebo. Placebo looks like BI 3802876 but does not contain any medicine. Participants have more than twice the chance of receiving BI 3802876 than placebo. The study medicine is given as an infusion into a vein. Participants are in the study for about half a year. During this time, they visit the study site 12 times. At 2 visits, participants get the study medicine. Doctors collect information on any health problems and take blood samples to check how BI 3802876 is handled by the body. They compare results between the groups.
