Frequently asked questions about Brelovitug

What is Brelovitug used for?

Brelovitug is an investigational therapy being developed for the treatment of chronic hepatitis D, also called chronic hepatitis delta infection. It is being studied in adults 18 years and older. The clinical program includes trials evaluating brelovitug both as a switch option for patients receiving bulevirtide and versus delayed treatment.

What does Brelovitug target?

Brelovitug targets hepatitis B surface antigen, or HBsAg. It is a small molecule designed to act on HBsAg, the surface antigen of the hepatitis B virus that hepatitis D virus depends on to assemble and release infectious particles. Targeting HBsAg is the mechanism under investigation in chronic hepatitis D.

Who is developing Brelovitug?

Brelovitug is being developed by Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which trades under the ticker MIRM. Mirum is running the clinical program for the drug in chronic hepatitis D, including the AZURE-2 and AZURE-4 trials and a Phase 2 study evaluating switching from bulevirtide to brelovitug.

What phase is Brelovitug in?

Brelovitug is in clinical development and has not been approved. The program includes Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies in chronic hepatitis D. Two Phase 3 trials, AZURE-2 and AZURE-4, are evaluating brelovitug, and Phase 2 studies are also ongoing or active but not recruiting.

What clinical trials is Brelovitug in?

Brelovitug is being studied in three active trials. NCT07200908 (AZURE-2) is a recruiting Phase 3 trial comparing brelovitug with bulevirtide. NCT07298330 (AZURE-4) is an active Phase 3 trial versus delayed treatment. NCT07454837 is a recruiting Phase 2 trial of switching to brelovitug in patients receiving bulevirtide.

Is Brelovitug the same as BJT-778?

Yes, BJT-778 is another name for brelovitug. The compound also appears in study listings as brelovitug 300 mg and as delayed treatment with brelovitug 300 mg, which refers to the delayed treatment arm of the clinical trials. All of these names refer to the same investigational small molecule developed by Mirum Pharmaceuticals.
