About Digestive Disease WeekDigestive Disease Week (DDW) is the largest international gathering of physicians, researchers and academics in the fields of gastroenterology, hepatology, endoscopy and gastrointestinal surgery. Jointly sponsored by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD), the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA), the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract (SSAT), DDW is an in-person and online meeting from May 3-6, 2025. The meeting showcases more than 5,600 abstracts and hundreds of lectures on the latest advances in GI research, medicine and technology. More information can be found at www.ddw.org. About Primary Biliary CholangitisPrimary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a rare, progressive and chronic autoimmune disease that affects the bile ducts in the liver and is most prevalent (approximately 1 in 10,000) in women over the age of 40. PBC causes bile acid to build up in the liver, resulting in inflammation and scarring (fibrosis), which, if left untreated, can lead to cirrhosis, a liver transplant or death. About Severe Alcohol-Associated Hepatitis (sAH)Alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) as a cause of chronic liver disease is on the rise in the U.S. and is currently the leading indication for liver transplant listing overall in the U.S. Patients with severe alcohol-associated hepatitis (sAH) are now younger, with an increased representation of females compared to past decades, reflecting changing patterns of alcohol consumption in the U.S. Currently, there are no medicines with an approved indication to treat patients with sAH. About Primary Sclerosing CholangitisPrimary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare, life-threatening, chronic cholestatic liver disease characterized by progressive destruction of bile ducts that leads to the development of cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease or cancer in a majority of patients. About the Investigational Obeticholic Acid-Bezafibrate CombinationIntercept has two ongoing Phase 2 studies (747-213 / NCT04594694, 747-214 / NCT05239468) that are exploring a range of therapeutic doses for the combination of obeticholic acid (OCA) and bezafibrate for the potential treatment of individuals with PBC. Obeticholic acid, a farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist, is marketed by Intercept as OCALIVA in the United States for the treatment of PBC (see below for full indication and Important Safety Information). Bezafibrate, a pan-peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (pan-PPAR) agonist, is not approved in the United States for any indication. FXR and PPAR are distinct pathways that each play a role in PBC. Simultaneously targeting both pathways may offer the greatest potential to impact bile acid synthesis, metabolism, and clearance that underly cholestatic liver diseases. Published studies establish a clinical proof-of-concept which suggests that the combination of obeticholic acid and bezafibrate may provide additive clinical efficacy and tolerability benefits in the treatment of PBC. Obeticholic acid-bezafibrate combination therapy is investigational; safety and efficacy have not been established. About OCALIVA (obeticholic acid)OCALIVA, a farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist, is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) without cirrhosis orwith compensated cirrhosis who do not have evidence of portal hypertension, either in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) with an inadequate response to UDCA or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on a reduction in alkaline phosphatase (ALP). An improvement in survival or disease-related symptoms has not been established. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING: HEPATIC DECOMPENSATION AND FAILURE IN PRIMARY BILIARY CHOLANGITIS PATIENTS WITH CIRRHOSIS Hepatic decompensation and failure, sometimes fatal or resulting in liver transplant, have been reported with OCALIVA treatment in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) patients with either compensated or decompensated cirrhosis. OCALIVA is contraindicated in PBC patients with decompensated cirrhosis, a prior decompensation event, or with compensated cirrhosis who have evidence of portal hypertension. Permanently discontinue OCALIVA in patients who develop laboratory or clinical evidence of hepatic decompensation; have compensated cirrhosis and develop evidence of portal hypertension, or experience clinically significant hepatic adverse reactions while on treatment. Contraindications OCALIVA is contraindicated in patients with: decompensated cirrhosis (e.g., Child-Pugh Class B or C) or a prior decompensation eventcompensated cirrhosis who have evidence of portal hypertension (e.g., ascites, gastroesophageal varices, persistent thrombocytopenia)complete biliary obstruction Warnings and Precautions Hepatic Decompensation and Failure in PBC Patients with Cirrhosis Hepatic decompensation and failure, sometimes fatal or resulting in liver transplant, have been reported with OCALIVA treatment in PBC patients with cirrhosis, either compensated or decompensated. Among post-marketing cases reporting it, median time to hepatic decompensation (e.g., new onset ascites) was four months for patients with compensated cirrhosis; median time to a new decompensation event (e.g., hepatic encephalopathy) was 2.5 months for patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Some of these cases occurred in patients with decompensated cirrhosis when they were treated with higher than the recommended dosage for that patient population; however, cases of hepatic decompensation and failure have continued to be reported in patients with decompensated cirrhosis even when they received the recommended dosage. Hepatotoxicity was observed in the OCALIVA clinical trials. A dose-response relationship was observed for the occurrence of hepatic adverse reactions including jaundice, worsening ascites, and primary biliary cholangitis flare with dosages of OCALIVA of 10 mg once daily to 50 mg once daily (up to 5-times the highest recommended dosage), as early as one month after starting treatment with OCALIVA in two 3-month, placebo-controlled clinical trials in patients with primarily early stage PBC. Routinely monitor patients for progression of PBC, including hepatic adverse reactions, with laboratory and clinical assessments to determine whether drug discontinuation is needed. Closely monitor patients with compensated cirrhosis, concomitant hepatic disease (e.g., autoimmune hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease), and/or with severe intercurrent illness for new evidence of portal hypertension (e.g., ascites, gastroesophageal varices, persistent thrombocytopenia), or increases above the upper limit of normal in total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, or prothrombin time to determine whether drug discontinuation is needed. Permanently discontinue OCALIVA in patients who develop laboratory or clinical evidence of hepatic decompensation (e.g., ascites, jaundice, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy), have compensated cirrhosis and develop evidence of portal hypertension (e.g., ascites, gastroesophageal varices, persistent thrombocytopenia), experience clinically significant hepatic adverse reactions, or develop complete biliary obstruction. If severe intercurrent illness occurs, interrupt treatment with OCALIVA and monitor the patient’s liver function. After resolution of the intercurrent illness, consider the potential risks and benefits of restarting OCALIVA treatment. Severe Pruritus Severe pruritus was reported in 23% of patients in the OCALIVA 10 mg arm, 19% of patients in the OCALIVA titration arm, and 7% of patients in the placebo arm in a 12-month double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial of 216 patients. Severe pruritus was defined as intense or widespread itching, interfering with activities of daily living, or causing severe sleep disturbance, or intolerable discomfort, and typically requiring medical interventions. Consider clinical evaluation of patients with new onset or worsening severe pruritus. Management strategies include the addition of bile acid binding resins or antihistamines, OCALIVA dosage reduction, and/or temporary interruption of OCALIVA dosing. Reduction in HDL-C Patients with PBC generally exhibit hyperlipidemia characterized by a significant elevation in total cholesterol primarily due to increased levels of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C). Dose-dependent reductions from baseline in mean HDL-C levels were observed at 2 weeks in OCALIVA-treated patients, 20% and 9% in the 10 mg and titration arms, respectively, compared to 2% in the placebo arm. Monitor patients for changes in serum lipid levels during treatment. For patients who do not respond to OCALIVA after one year at the highest recommended dosage that can be tolerated (maximum of 10 mg once daily), and who experience a reduction in HDL-C, weigh the potential risks against the benefits of continuing treatment. Adverse Reactions The most common adverse reactions (≥5%) are pruritus, fatigue, abdominal pain and discomfort, rash, oropharyngeal pain, dizziness, constipation, arthralgia, thyroid function abnormality, and eczema. Drug Interactions Bile Acid Binding Resins Bile acid binding resins such as cholestyramine, colestipol, or colesevelam adsorb and reduce bile acid absorption and may reduce the absorption, systemic exposure, and efficacy of OCALIVA. If taking a bile acid binding resin, take OCALIVA at least four hours before or four hours after taking the bile acid binding resin, or at as great an interval as possible.Warfarin The International Normalized Ratio (INR) decreased following coadministration of warfarin and OCALIVA. Monitor INR and adjust the dose of warfarin, as needed, to maintain the target INR range when co-administering OCALIVA and warfarin.CYP1A2 Substrates with Narrow Therapeutic Index Obeticholic acid may increase the exposure to concomitant drugs that are CYP1A2 substrates. Therapeutic monitoring of CYP1A2 substrates with a narrow therapeutic index (e.g., theophylline and tizanidine) is recommended when co-administered with OCALIVA.Inhibitors of Bile Salt Efflux Pump Avoid concomitant use of inhibitors of the bile salt efflux pump (BSEP) such as cyclosporine. Concomitant medications that inhibit canalicular membrane bile acid transporters such as the BSEP may exacerbate accumulation of conjugated bile salts including taurine conjugate of obeticholic acid in the liver and result in clinical symptoms. If concomitant use is deemed necessary, monitor serum transaminases and bilirubin. Please click here for Full Prescribing Information, including boxed WARNING.

– New findings to be presented at the 2025 European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress continue to demonstrate the effectiveness of Livdelzi (seladelpar) in reducing pruritus in people with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) – – Additional presentations will showcase the potential for maintained virologic response following treatment with investigational bulevirtide in people with hepatitis delta virus (HDV) – – Presentations in hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) will underscore Gilead’s commitment to advancing scientific research and our understanding of viral hepatitis in the real-world setting – FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq:GILD) today announced new research to be presented at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress, May 7-10, 2025, Amsterdam, furthering Gilead’s commitment to transform the lives of people living with liver disease. New data to be presented at EASL will include a subgroup analysis from ASSURE, an ongoing open-label study, and an analysis of the Phase 3 RESPONSE trial and the open-label extension. Data will reinforce the effectiveness of Livdelzi® (seladelpar), known as Lyvdelzi® in the European Union, in reducing pruritus (chronic itch), a debilitating common symptom of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). Moreover, the results will highlight seladelpar’s ability to deliver a sustained biochemical response regardless of prior treatment history, and as an option for a broad range of people with PBC. “Our focus remains on addressing the areas of greatest unmet need across liver diseases,” said Dietmar Berger, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer, Gilead Sciences. “Our deep expertise in treating liver disease has delivered the first and only treatment for hepatitis delta and the first treatment for primary biliary cholangitis that has demonstrated statistically significant improvements across both chronic itch and markers of disease progression. Our studies continue to deliver transformational insights and therapies to help foster healthier futures for the millions of people who live with viral hepatitis and those who live with less prevalent liver conditions with remaining high unmet needs.” Key findings from 29 accepted abstracts will include two oral presentations showcasing new data on the critical goal of maintained virologic response following treatment with 2 mg and 10 mg bulevirtide in people living with hepatitis delta virus (HDV). These findings build on the wealth of long-term data for the treatment of chronic HDV. A late breaker presentation on the final results from the pivotal MYR301 Phase 3 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of 2 mg and 10 mg bulevirtide as monotherapy will reveal long-term response rates, including the proportion of participants with undetectable virus levels two years after treatment cessation. In hepatitis B (HBV), Gilead will present initial results from a Phase 1a study of a novel investigational therapeutic vaccine that shows early promise towards the goal of achieving a functional cure for HBV infection. A separate analysis of real-world data showed that individuals with low-level HBV viremia still have a risk of negative events. Additionally, a retrospective analysis of participants enrolled in two Phase 3 studies evaluating Vemlidy® (tenofovir alafenamide) using a risk score for liver cancer highlights the importance of treatment to help reduce liver cancer risk. Gilead will also showcase real-world data on hepatitis C (HCV), demonstrating the effects of direct-acting antivirals (DAA) against all genotypes of the virus across diverse geographical regions, supporting the global applicability of HCV treatment guidelines. In addition, new real-world insights will show that the choice of DAA for people living with HCV taking other medicines, such as antipsychotics, was associated with reducing the problem of drug-drug interactions. To help raise awareness about HCV and encourage people to get screened for the disease, Gilead will again support EASL’s “Love Your Liver” Campaign at the congress. At the EASL Congress, Gilead, in collaboration with the PBC Foundation and Friends of the PBC Foundation, will also launch “All the Feelings with PBC,” a campaign highlighting the experiences of people living with PBC and emphasizing the importance of listening to and addressing their needs in clinical practice and research. The campaign will feature paintings by Berlin-based artist, Nour Khwies, based on the physical and emotional experiences of people living with PBC: Dilek from Germany, Angela from Scotland, Joana from Portugal, and L. Marie from the United States, whose painting will be painted live at EASL.

About Gilead Sciences in Liver Disease For decades, Gilead has pioneered the way forward to improve the lives of people living with liver disease around the world. The company has helped to transform hepatitis C from a chronic condition into a curable condition. For individuals living with hepatitis B or hepatitis delta, Gilead's focus on advancing medicines drives hope that today’s research will turn into tomorrow’s cures. Beyond viral hepatitis, Gilead is working to deliver advanced treatments for people living with PBC. The commitment of Gilead does not stop there. Through ground-breaking science and collaborative partnerships, the company strives to create healthier futures for everyone living with liver disease. Gilead remains devoted to a future without liver disease. Marketing Authorization In July 2023, the European Commission (EC) granted full Marketing Authorization (MA) for Hepcludex® (bulevirtide) 2 mg for the treatment of adults with chronic HDV and compensated liver disease. Bulevirtide was initially granted a conditional MA from the EC in July 2020 to provide people living with HDV urgent access to treatment. Bulevirtide’s conditional MA license in the UK was converted to a full MA in August 2023, and a full MA was granted in Switzerland in February 2024. In regions where bulevirtide is not approved, including the U.S., bulevirtide 2 mg is an investigational product. In these regions, health authorities have not established the safety and efficacy of bulevirtide. Bulevirtide 10 mg is an investigational product and is not approved anywhere globally. In February 2025, the European Commission (EC) granted conditional marketing authorization for Lyvdelzi® (seladelpar) for the treatment of PBC in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults who have an inadequate response to UDCA alone, or as monotherapy in those unable to tolerate UDCA. Lyvdelzi provides an important treatment option for people living with PBC in the European Economic Area (EEA). Gilead is working with health authorities across Europe to ensure people living with PBC who are eligible for Lyvdelzi have access as soon as possible. Continued approval of Lyvdelzi for the approved indication will be contingent on verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s). Lyvdelzi has Priority Medicine (PRIME) designation in the EU, assigned to optimize the development of novel medicines that target conditions with an unmet medical need for which no treatment options exist or where they can offer a major therapeutic advantage over existing treatments, as well as well as Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of people living with PBC. Livdelzi® received conditional approval from the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in January 2025. In the U.S., Livdelzi® obtained accelerated approval for the treatment of PBC by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in August 2024. Livdelzi received Breakthrough Therapy Designation, as well as Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of people living with PBC. As part of the FDA accelerated approval, Gilead has committed to AFFIRM, a long-term outcomes study, which has begun in people with compensated cirrhosis. Continued U.S. approval may be contingent upon verification of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s). Regulatory review for Livdelzi is underway in Canada, Australia, and Switzerland. U.S. Indication for Livdelzi® Livdelzi is indicated for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults who have had an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. The FDA approved this indication under accelerated approval based on a reduction of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Improvement in survival or prevention of liver decompensation events have not been demonstrated. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s). Limitations of Use: Use of Livdelzi is not recommended in patients who have or develop decompensated cirrhosis (e.g., ascites, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy). U.S. Important Safety Information for Livdelzi Warnings and Precautions Fractures: Fractures occurred in 4% of Livdelzi-treated patients compared to no placebo-treated patients. Consider the risk of fracture in the care of patients treated with Livdelzi and monitor bone health according to current standards of care. Liver Test Abnormalities: Livdelzi has been associated with dose-related increases in serum transaminase (AST and ALT) levels > 3 x ULN in patients receiving 50 mg and 200 mg once daily (5x and 20x higher than the recommended dosage of 10 mg once daily). Perform baseline clinical and laboratory testing when starting Livdelzi® and monitor thereafter according to routine patient management. Interrupt treatment if the liver tests (ALT, AST, total bilirubin, and/or ALP) worsen, or if the patient develops signs and symptoms of clinical hepatitis (eg, jaundice, right upper quadrant pain, eosinophilia). Consider permanent discontinuation if liver tests worsen after restarting Livdelzi. Biliary Obstruction: Avoid use of Livdelzi in patients with complete biliary obstruction. If biliary obstruction is suspected, interrupt Livdelzi and treat as clinically indicated. Adverse Reactions The most common adverse reactions (≥5%) with Livdelzi were headache (8%), abdominal pain (7%), nausea (6%), abdominal distension (6%), and dizziness (5%). Drug Interactions OAT3 Inhibitors and Strong CYP2C9 Inhibitors: Avoid co-administration with L due to increased Livdelzi exposure. Rifampin: Monitor biochemical response (e.g., ALP and bilirubin) when patients initiate rifampin during Livdelzi treatment. Coadministration may result in delayed or suboptimal biochemical response of Livdelzi. Dual Moderate CYP2C9 and Moderate-to-Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors and BCRP Inhibitors (e.g., cyclosporine): Monitor closely for adverse effects. Concomitant administration with Livdelzi may increase Livdelzi exposure. CYP2C9 Poor Metabolizers Using Moderate-to-Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Monitor more frequently for adverse reactions as concomitant use of a moderate-to-strong CYP3A4 inhibitor in patients who are CYP2C9 poor metabolizers may increase Livdelzi exposure and risk of LIVDELZI adverse reactions. Bile Acid Sequestrants: Administer Livdelzi at least 4 hours before or 4 hours after taking a bile acid sequestrant, or at as great an interval as possible. Pregnancy and Lactation Pregnancy: There is insufficient data from human pregnancies exposed to Livdelzi to allow an assessment of a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Report pregnancies to Gilead Sciences, Inc., at 1-800-445-3235. Lactation: There is no data on the presence of Livdelzi in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for Livdelzi and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from Livdelzi. U.S. Indication for Vemlidy® VEMLIDY is indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus infection in adults and pediatric patients six years of age and older and weighing at least 25 kg with compensated liver disease. U.S. Important Safety Information for and Indication for the Use of Vemlidy BOXED WARNING: POSTTREATMENT SEVERE ACUTE EXACERBATION OF HEPATITIS B Discontinuation of anti-hepatitis B therapy, including VEMLIDY, may result in severe acute exacerbations of hepatitis B. Hepatic function should be monitored closely with both clinical and laboratory follow-up for at least several months in patients who discontinue anti-hepatitis B therapy, including VEMLIDY. If appropriate, resumption of anti-hepatitis B therapy may be warranted. Warnings and Precautions Risk of Development of HIV-1 Resistance in HBV/HIV-1 Coinfected Patients:Due to this risk, VEMLIDY alone should not be used for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. Safety and efficacy of VEMLIDY have not been established in HBV/HIV-1 coinfected patients. HIV antibody testing should be offered to all HBV-infected patients before initiating therapy with VEMLIDY, and if positive, an appropriate antiretroviral combination regimen that is recommended for HBV/HIV-1 coinfected patients should be used. New Onset or Worsening Renal Impairment:Postmarketing cases of renal impairment, including acute renal failure, proximal renal tubulopathy (PRT), and Fanconi syndrome, have been reported with TAF-containing products. Patients with impaired renal function and/or taking nephrotoxic agents (including NSAIDs) are at increased risk of renal-related adverse reactions. Discontinue VEMLIDY in patients who develop clinically significant decreases in renal function or evidence of Fanconi syndrome. Monitor renal function in all patients – See Dosage and Administration. Lactic Acidosis and Severe Hepatomegaly with Steatosis:Fatal cases have been reported with the use of nucleoside analogs, including tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). Discontinue VEMLIDY if clinical or laboratory findings suggestive of lactic acidosis or pronounced hepatotoxicity develop, including hepatomegaly and steatosis in the absence of marked transaminase elevations. Adverse Reactions Most common adverse events in the week 96 pediatric population reported in ≥5% were: nasopharyngitis, headache, COVID-19, pyrexia, diarrhea, upper respiratory tract infection, cough, respiratory tract infection viral, abdominal pain upper. Overall, abdominal pain upper and metabolic nephropathy were the only study drug–related adverse events, which occurred in > 1 participant, reported in 2.3% (2/88 participants) each. Drug Interactions Coadministration of VEMLIDY with drugs that reduce renal function or compete for active tubular secretion may increase concentrations of tenofovir and the risk of adverse reactions. Coadministration of VEMLIDY is not recommended with the following: oxcarbazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, rifabutin, rifampin, rifapentine, or St. John’s wort. Such coadministration is expected to decrease the concentration of tenofovir alafenamide, reducing the therapeutic effect of VEMLIDY. Drugs that strongly affect P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) activity may lead to changes in VEMLIDY absorption. Coadministration of VEMLIDY with carbamazepine, the tenofovir alafenamide dose should be increased to two tablets once daily. Consult the full prescribing information for VEMLIDY for more information on potentially significant drug interactions, including clinical comments. Dosage and Administration Testing Prior to Initiation:HIV infection. Prior to or When Initiating, and During Treatment:On a clinically appropriate schedule, assess serum creatinine, estimated creatinine clearance, urine glucose, and urine protein in all patients. In patients with chronic kidney disease, also assess serum phosphorus. Dosage:1 tablet taken once daily with food. Renal Impairment:Not recommended in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD; eCrCl <15 mL/min) who are not receiving chronic hemodialysis; in patients on chronic hemodialysis, on hemodialysis days, administer VEMLIDY after completion of hemodialysis treatment. No data are available to make dose recommendations in pediatric patients with renal impairment. Hepatic Impairment:Not recommended in patients with decompensated (Child-Pugh B or C) hepatic impairment.

- 28-week data from Phase 2b VANTAGE PBC study highlighting improvements in itch and fatigue will be presented at EASL - Data from Mirum studies presented at DDW, EASL, and ESPGHAN congresses FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIRM) today announced that it will present data at three upcoming medical congresses. Digestive Disease Week (DDW) will be held in San Diego, May 3-6, 2025. The European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) will take place May 7-10 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The 57th European Society for Paediatric, Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) Annual Meeting will follow May 14-17 in Helsinki, Finland. Data from Mirum’s LIVMARLI and volixibat studies will be highlighted in oral and poster presentations during the congresses. “We are excited to see the continued evidence generated by Mirum medicines and product candidates across a number of settings,” said Joanne Quan, MD, chief medical officer at Mirum. “In particular, we look forward to sharing updated data from the interim analysis of the VANTAGE study of volixibat in patients with pruritus due to PBC. We are encouraged by the positive results which show a meaningful decrease in pruritus that lasts for the duration of the placebo-controlled period.” EASL – May 7-10, 2025 Abstract #OS-059 (Oral): Volixibat for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis: an adaptive, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2B trial (VANTAGE): 28-week interim analysis Friday, May 9 from 8:30-8:45am CEST Immune-mediated and Cholestatic Diseases Session, McIntyre Room Presented by: Michael Heneghan, MD, MMedSc, FRCPI, King’s College, London, UK New 28-week data were reported from the Phase 2 VANTAGE study evaluating volixibat in patients with cholestatic pruritus related to primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). Thirty-one patients with moderate-to-severe pruritus were randomized (20mg VLX=10, 80mg VLX=10, placebo=11). Data showed that volixibat led to early and significant reductions in PBC-associated cholestatic pruritus and were maintained throughout the duration of the study. Further, 70% of volixibat-treated patients had a ≥50% reduction in serum bile acid levels from baseline. Additionally, patients treated with volixibat experienced improvements in fatigue and sleep. No new safety signals were observed through 28 weeks of treatment. The most common treatment-emergent adverse event was diarrhea which was mild to moderate in severity and transient in nature. Additional data will be shared following the formal presentation on May 9.

About Volixibat Volixibat is an oral, minimally absorbed agent designed to selectively inhibit the ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT). Volixibat may offer a novel approach in the treatment of adult cholestatic diseases by blocking the recycling of bile acids, through inhibition of IBAT, thereby reducing bile acids systemically and in the liver. Volixibat is currently being evaluated in Phase 2b studies for primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) (VISTAS study), and primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) (VANTAGE study). In June, Mirum announced positive interim results from the Phase 2b VANTAGE study showing statistically significant improvement in pruritus as well as meaningful reductions in serum bile acids and improvements in fatigue for patients treated with volixibat. No new safety signals were observed, and the most common adverse event was diarrhea with all cases mild to moderate. Volixibat has been granted breakthrough therapy designation for the treatment of PBC. About LIVMARLI® (maralixibat) oral solution and LIVMARLI® (maralixibat) tablets LIVMARLI® (maralixibat) is an orally administered, ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT) inhibitor approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for two pediatric cholestatic liver diseases, in both liquid and tablet formulations. It is approved for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in patients with Alagille syndrome (ALGS) in the U.S. three months of age and older and in Europe for patients two months of age and older. It is also approved in the U.S. for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in patients with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) 12 months of age and older and in Europe for the treatment of PFIC in patients three months of age and older. For more information for U.S. residents, please visit LIVMARLI.com. LIVMARLI is currently being evaluated in the Phase 3 EXPAND study in additional settings of cholestatic pruritus. To learn more about ongoing clinical trials with LIVMARLI, please visit Mirum’s clinical trials section on the company’s website. U.S. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Limitation of Use: LIVMARLI is not for use in PFIC type 2 patients who have a severe defect in the bile salt export pump (BSEP) protein. LIVMARLI can cause side effects, including: Liver injury. Changes in certain liver tests are common in patients with Alagille syndrome and PFIC but can worsen during treatment. These changes may be a sign of liver injury. In PFIC, this can be serious or may lead to liver transplant or death. Your healthcare provider should do blood tests and physical exams before starting and during treatment to check your liver function. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get any signs or symptoms of liver problems, including nausea or vomiting, skin or the white part of the eye turns yellow, dark or brown urine, pain on the right side of the stomach (abdomen), bloating in your stomach area, loss of appetite or bleeding or bruising more easily than normal. Stomach and intestinal (gastrointestinal) problems. LIVMARLI can cause stomach and intestinal problems, including diarrhea and stomach pain. Your healthcare provider may advise you to monitor for new or worsening stomach problems including stomach pain, diarrhea, blood in your stool or vomiting. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you have any of these symptoms more often or more severely than normal for you. A condition called Fat Soluble Vitamin (FSV) Deficiency caused by low levels of certain vitamins (vitamin A, D, E, and K) stored in body fat is common in patients with Alagille syndrome and PFIC but may worsen during treatment. Your healthcare provider should do blood tests before starting and during treatment and may monitor for bone fractures and bleeding which have been reported as common side effects. LIVMARLI is available in oral solution or tablet formulations and is taken by mouth 30 minutes before a meal. For Alagille syndrome, LIVMARLI is taken one time each day in the morning. For PFIC, LIVMARLI is taken two times each day. If you take the oral solution, use the oral dosing dispenser to measure your dose.
