Elafibranor (INN,[2] code name GFT505) is an experimental medication that is being studied and developed by Genfit for the treatment of cardiometabolic diseases including diabetes, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).[3][4][5]
Elafibranor is a dual PPARα/δ agonist.[6][7]
Clinical studies
Administered to over 800 patients and healthy volunteers to date, elafibranor has demonstrated:
- beneficial properties for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)[8]
- improvement of insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis[9]
Phase 2b (GOLDEN) results were published online in Gastroenterology in February 2016[10] and will be fully available in the paper version in May 2016.
As of February 2016, elafibranor has completed 8 clinical trials and a phase III is in progress.[11]
Pre-clinical studies
Efficacy on histological NASH parameters (steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis) in animal disease models — anti-fibrotic activities.[12]
The absence of safety concern has been confirmed in a full toxicological package up to 2-year carcinogenicity studies and cardiac studies (in mice).[13]
