BOSTON, Nov. 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Albireo Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALBO), a rare disease company developing novel bile acid modulators to treat pediatric and adult liver diseases, today announced the acceptance of two late breakers, including one late breaker with new data from the Phase 3 ASSERT study, to be presented as an oral presentation at the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) The Liver Meeting® 2022, November 4 – 8, 2022. Positive topline results from ASSERT, a global, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial which evaluated the safety and efficacy of Bylvay in ALGS patients from birth to early adulthood, were announced in October. A second late breaker was also accepted as an oral presentation with data showing Bylvay restored biliary bile acid secretion in treatment-responsive progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) patients with bile salt export pump (BSEP) deficiency in the PEDFIC 1 trial. A third oral presentation was previously announced, with a pooled data analysis of the PEDFIC trials showing that a decrease in serum bile acids was strongly associated with native liver survival in PFIC patients treated with Bylvay.

Key Points: 
  • A full list of presentations can be found on The Liver Meeting Digital Experience 2022 website .
  • A potent, once-daily, non-systemic ileal bile acid transport inhibitor, Bylvay has minimal systemic exposure and acts locally in the small intestine.
  • The most common adverse reactions for Bylvay are diarrhea, liver test abnormalities, vomiting, abdominal pain, and fat-soluble vitamin deficiency.
  • Bylvay was well tolerated, with an overall adverse event incidence similar to placebo and a low incidence of drug-related diarrhea (11.4% vs. 5.9% placebo).
