Prevent-Stop-Cure: Diagnostics & chronic liver disease, with Roche
Episode 271
Tuesday, 4 August, 2026
Chronic liver disease affects around 1.5 billion people globally. As understanding of liver disease improves, outcomes are increasingly determined by how early patients are identified, not just what therapies are available. In a new pharmaphorum podcast, web editor Nicole Raleigh speaks with Lee Lehman Becker, Roche’s global head of healthcare insights at Roche Information Solutions (RIS), for a discussion of the liver disease epidemic that is being diagnosed too late and driving a growing health system crisis globally. The conversation also explores scalable diagnostic innovation and the role of this in addressing health system burden – metabolic liver disease projected to affect some 1.8 billion people by 2050, with global costs expected to exceed $2.3 trillion.
