Investigational Dual PPAR Agonist, FXR Agonist With Fibrate, and Hyperlipidemia in People With PBC: Conference Coverage of AASLD
During the 2023 American Association of the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) conference, exciting and important results from many primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) clinical trials were reported, including 3 late-breaking studies on the PPAR-delta agonist seladelpar, the dual PPAR agonist elafibranor, and the combination of the FXR agonist obeticholic acid and a fibrate.In this episode, Marlyn J. Mayo, MD, discusses topline results from several of these studies and more, including: A phase III study of an investigational dual PPAR α/δ agonist (elafibranor) in people with PBC who did not respond to or were intolerant of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA)A study that evaluated the effectiveness and safety of second-line therapy in PBC where obeticholic acid with or without a fibrate was added to the treatment regimen of people with PBC with an incomplete response to UDCAA retrospective review of the rates of hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, and/or hepatic steatosis in patients with PBCPresenter: Marlyn J.
