Frequently asked questions about Elafibranor

What is Elafibranor used for?

Elafibranor is an investigational small molecule being studied for Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC). It is also being evaluated in clinical trials for renal impairment, hepatic impairment, drug-drug interactions, and geriatric populations, though these are pharmacokinetic studies rather than therapeutic indications.

Who makes Elafibranor?

Elafibranor is being developed by Genfit SA, which trades as a Sponsored ADR under the ticker GNFT. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy in patients with Primary Biliary Cholangitis.

What phase is Elafibranor in?

Elafibranor is in Phase 1 clinical development. While one Phase 2 trial has been completed, the most advanced ongoing development stage is Phase 1, with studies evaluating pharmacokinetics in special populations. The drug is investigational and not yet approved.

What clinical trials is Elafibranor in?

Elafibranor has completed four clinical trials: NCT03124108, a Phase 2 study in Primary Biliary Cholangitis; NCT03844555, a Phase 1 renal impairment study; NCT03985969, a Phase 1 drug-drug interaction study; and NCT04171752, a Phase 1 geriatric study. All trials are completed.

Is Elafibranor the same as any other drug?

Elafibranor is also known by its chemical name and has been referred to as GFT505 in some contexts. However, no alternative brand names have been established, and it is primarily identified by its generic name Elafibranor in clinical research.

What does Elafibranor target?

Elafibranor is a small molecule that acts as a dual peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) agonist, targeting both PPAR-alpha and PPAR-delta. This mechanism is being studied for its potential effects in Primary Biliary Cholangitis and other metabolic conditions.
