Researchers are studying adults with confirmed Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and cirrhosis, a scarring of the liver caused by damage to bile ducts. PBC is a slowly progressing disease that causes bile acid buildup and further liver damage, which can lead to cirrhosis. This study aims to evaluate if elafibranor, a daily medication, can prevent worsening clinical outcomes such as the need for liver transplant or death, compared to a placebo. It also looks at the safety of long-term elafibranor use and its effect on symptoms like itching and tiredness. Participants will take either an 80 mg tablet of elafibranor or a matching placebo once daily for up to 3.5 years in a double-blind setup, meaning neither the participants nor researchers know who receives which treatment. This long-term treatment period is designed to monitor the drug's impact over time. The study includes two groups: one receiving elafibranor and the other receiving placebo, with treatment lasting up to approximately 42 months. During the study, participants will be regularly assessed from the start until 4 weeks after treatment ends, with a maximum involvement of 3.5 years. Researchers will measure event-free survival, tracking if participants avoid clinical events indicating disease worsening. Safety monitoring will include tracking side effects and overall health, while symptom impact will be evaluated. Participants will provide informed consent and follow the study protocol throughout this extended observation period.

Researchers are conducting a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of duvakitug in participants with moderately to severely active Ulcerative Colitis (UC). The study aims to assess how well duvakitug maintains clinical remission compared to a placebo over time. Participants will receive either duvakitug or placebo administered by subcutaneous injection during a 40-week pivotal maintenance period. Following this, eligible participants may join a 240-week open-label extension phase where they can continue receiving treatment. Participants who do not join the extension will complete a 45-day follow-up visit. The study includes up to 32 on-site visits, with 21 visits during the maintenance phase and 11 visits during the extension phase. Throughout the study, participants will be monitored for clinical remission using the modified Mayo Score by week 40. Safety and efficacy will be assessed regularly during office visits. The total study duration may last up to 286 weeks, including treatment, extension, and follow-up periods, ensuring thorough evaluation of long-term outcomes and safety of duvakitug in UC management.

Researchers are evaluating an investigational drug called ALN-HSD for adults with Metabolic dysfunction-Associated SteatoHepatitis (MASH), a type of liver disease where fat buildup causes liver cell damage, inflammation, and scarring. This condition can lead to serious complications like cirrhosis and liver failure. The study aims to assess how ALN-HSD affects liver scarring associated with MASH and to explore its impact on liver function, inflammation, side effects, and how the drug and its breakdown products appear in the blood. Participants will receive either ALN-HSD or a placebo according to the study protocol in this Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The treatment is given based on the protocol's schedule, but specific dosing details are not provided. The study focuses on adults with specific genetic risk factors for MASH and with certain disease stages, ensuring a targeted precision medicine approach. During the study, participants will be monitored for changes in quantitative liver fibrosis from the start of the study to week 52. Researchers will evaluate liver scarring, liver function, inflammation, drug levels in the blood, and any side effects. The study includes genetic testing and specific liver assessments like FibroScan and FAST scores. Participants will be followed closely to understand the drug's effects and safety over the one-year period.

Researchers are evaluating how well oral icotrokinra works, its safety, and how well patients tolerate it in adults and adolescents with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, a chronic condition where the colon lining becomes inflamed and develops ulcers. This is a Phase 3 study aimed at finding effective treatments for this condition using a rigorous comparison. Participants will receive either icotrokinra tablets or placebo tablets taken by mouth. The study includes an induction phase and a maintenance phase, with adults participating in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design, while adolescents join an open-label maintenance study. Throughout the study, researchers will monitor clinical remission rates at 12 weeks during induction and at 40 weeks during maintenance. Participants will undergo assessments including endoscopic evaluations and pregnancy tests for females of childbearing potential. Safety and tolerability will be closely observed, with the total study duration covering both induction and maintenance periods.

Researchers are evaluating efruxifermin (EFX) in adults aged 18 to 80 who have compensated cirrhosis caused by nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of EFX in improving liver health and delaying disease progression in this population. The study focuses on subjects with advanced liver fibrosis (stage 4) but without liver decompensation. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either efruxifermin or a placebo, both administered by subcutaneous injection. The study includes two cohorts: Cohort 1 requires biopsy confirmation of liver fibrosis and specific metabolic features, while Cohort 2 allows biopsy or non-invasive diagnosis. Treatment and observation continue over an extended period to evaluate changes in liver fibrosis and clinical events. During the study, researchers will monitor the time until significant clinical events such as disease progression or liver decompensation occur, with a follow-up of up to five years. For Cohort 1, the proportion of participants showing improvement in fibrosis without worsening steatohepatitis will be assessed at 96 weeks. Participants will undergo regular evaluations including clinical assessments and laboratory tests to track liver function and safety throughout the study period.

Researchers are investigating the safety and effectiveness of efruxifermin in people with non-cirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) who have moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (stage 2 or 3). This Phase 3 study is randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, enrolling a total of 1650 participants in two groups to evaluate treatment outcomes. Participants will receive either efruxifermin or a placebo by subcutaneous injection. The study involves two cohorts, with Cohort 1 including patients who have biopsy-confirmed NASH or MASH and specific liver fibrosis and activity scores. The treatment period and detailed dosing schedules are not provided but the study compares the effects of the active drug against placebo. During the study, participants will be monitored for improvement in liver disease status, including resolution of NASH/MASH and at least a one-stage improvement in liver fibrosis after 52 weeks for Cohort 1. Long-term outcomes such as event-free survival will be observed over 240 weeks. Safety and efficacy assessments will be conducted throughout the study period, including evaluations of liver histology and metabolic health.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a new oral medicine called ALG-000184 compared with tenofovir disproxil fumarate (TDF) in adults with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. This Phase 2 study includes people who have never been treated or are currently not treated, and it focuses on both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative participants. The study aims to understand how well these treatments control the virus over time. Participants will receive either ALG-000184 or TDF as a once-daily oral tablet for 48 weeks in a randomized, double-blind setting. After this period, all participants have the option to continue treatment with ALG-000184 alone for an additional 48 weeks in an open-label extension. The study includes two parts: one for HBeAg-positive subjects and one for HBeAg-negative subjects, each with the possibility of joining a liver biopsy sub-study. During the study, participants will be regularly monitored for viral levels, specifically measuring HBV DNA to see if it falls below a certain limit after 48 weeks. Researchers will also check safety and liver health through blood tests and imaging. The total study involvement can last up to 96 weeks, including the treatment extension. The study looks closely at how the virus responds to treatment and the overall health of participants throughout this time.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two different dose schedules of pegozafermin compared to a placebo in adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) who have liver fibrosis at stage F2 or F3. This phase 3 study focuses on improving liver fibrosis and steatohepatitis in this patient group, which involves chronic liver disease associated with metabolic dysfunction. Participants will receive either pegozafermin or a placebo through subcutaneous injections. The study compares two doses of pegozafermin to assess their impact on liver fibrosis and steatohepatitis. The treatment period lasts up to 52 weeks, with outcomes measured at this time point. During the study, participants will be monitored for improvements in liver fibrosis and resolution of steatohepatitis without worsening fibrosis by week 52. Researchers will also track the time until any disease progression occurs, up to 5 years. Throughout the trial, safety and efficacy will be carefully assessed through clinical evaluations and laboratory tests to ensure participant well-being.

Researchers are observing the use of the drug elafibranor in people with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC), a rare and progressive liver disease where bile ducts are damaged. This damage can lead to scarring of the liver (cirrhosis) and is often linked with symptoms like itching and fatigue. If PBC worsens, it may require a liver transplant or could be fatal without one. The study aims to understand how effective, safe, and tolerable elafibranor is for those being treated in everyday clinical settings. Participants in this study will be those who have been diagnosed with PBC and are either starting or already receiving treatment with commercial elafibranor at a dose of 80 mg per day. The study is non-interventional, meaning it observes participants as they receive their usual care without altering treatment. The total study duration for each participant is approximately 60 months, or 5 years. During the study, researchers will gather information about participants’ responses to treatment, safety, and tolerability over time. Outcome measurements include the percentage of participants who respond to treatment after 6 months. Participants and their caregivers may complete questionnaires, and researchers will monitor treatment effects and side effects throughout the study period to better understand how elafibranor works in real-world use.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of two drugs, eltrekibart and mirikizumab, in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). This study is a phase 2 trial lasting about 4 to 5 years, aiming to understand how well these treatments work alone or together for this chronic condition. Participants will receive either eltrekibart alone, mirikizumab alone, a combination of both, or a placebo. The treatments are administered as drugs, and the study includes a screening period of up to 35 days before enrollment. The total participation time for each person is approximately 69 weeks, which includes the screening and treatment periods. During the trial, participants will be closely monitored to assess the percentage who achieve clinical remission by week 12. Researchers will conduct regular evaluations, which may include medical assessments and questionnaires, to track the safety and effects of the treatments. The study emphasizes careful follow-up to ensure participant safety and to gather detailed information about the therapies over the entire study duration.
