Lanifibranor

Lanifibranor

We are developing our lead product candidate, lanifibranor, for the treatment of patients with systemic sclerosis, or SSc, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, or NASH. For further disease relevant information please visit also the panNASH website.

Lanifibranor is an orally-available small molecule that acts to induce anti-fibrotic, anti-inflammatory and beneficial metabolic changes in the body by activating all three peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor, or PPAR, isoforms.

01.
Major unmet medical need

NASH is a severe liver disease which affects 6-8% of adults in Western industrialized nations yet there is no approved treatment for patients available. NASH can lead to liver cirrhosis or liver cancer and treatment is urgently needed for those patients at highest risk of disease progression.

02.
Safe and efficacious

Lanifibranor has shown in clinical phase I and IIa studies that it is safe and efficacious. Its safety profile in those study was comparable to placebo. Equally, preclinical toxicology data in rodents and primates showed no safety concerns. Extensive efficacy studies in preclinical animal models demonstrate the potential of lanifibranor for the treatment of NASH.

03.
The NATIVE trial

Lanifibranor is currently being tested in a 24-week, placebo controlled, double blinded phase IIb study in patients with NASH. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of two doses of lanifibranor for 24 weeks versus placebo in adult NASH patients with liver steatosis and moderate to severe necroinflammation without cirrhosis. The NATIVE trial is open and recruiting patients.
