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]

Medical uses[edit]

elafibranor is indicated for the treatment of Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults who have an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA.[8][9]

Elafibranor and its main active metabolite GFT1007 are peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) agonists, both of which activate PPAR-alpha, PPAR-gamma, and PPAR-delta in vitro.[10]

Adverse effects[edit]

The most common adverse reactions include weight gain, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, arthralgia, constipation, muscle injury, fracture, gastroesophageal reflux disease, dry mouth, weight loss, and rash.[10]

History[edit]

In 2019, the FDA granted elafibranor Breakthrough Therapy Designation, based on Phase II data, for treatment of Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) in adults with inadequate response to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA).[11] The designation was granted to Genfit.

In June 2024, the US FDA has granted accelerated approval to elafibranor. The approval was based on positive Phase III ELATIVE trial data.[12] The designation was granted to Ipsen.[13]
