French biotech firm Genfit (Euronext: GNFT) on Friday outlined important developments in its research pipeline

Among these was regarding its investigational treatment elafibranor, which is now partnered with fellow French drugmaker Ipsen (Euronext: IPN), noting that top-line Phase III results for the ELATIVE study in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) are now expected to be announced towards the end of second-quarter 2023.

Meantime, Genfit noted, Phase II results showed a statistically-significant improvement on both the primary and composite biochemical evaluation criteria, the latter now being the primary endpoint of the pivotal Phase III trial to support accelerated approval. In addition, the results showed a positive trend on the improvement of pruritus, while preserving a favorable safety and tolerability profile. These positive conclusions were published in the Journal of Hepatology in 2021.
