Mirum Pharmaceuticals is conducting a study titled ‘A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Volixibat in the Treatment of Cholestatic Pruritus in Patients With Primary Biliary Cholangitis.’ The study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of volixibat, an investigational drug, in treating itching associated with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and its potential impact on disease progression.
The intervention being tested is volixibat, an Ileal Bile Acid Transporter (IBAT) inhibitor, administered as oral capsules twice daily. The study includes experimental arms with volixibat doses of 20mg and 80mg, as well as placebo comparator arms.
This interventional study follows a randomized, parallel assignment model with double masking for participants and investigators. Its primary purpose is treatment-focused, aiming to provide insights into volixibat’s effectiveness in managing PBC-related symptoms.
The study began on September 22, 2021, with an estimated completion date of June 30, 2025. These dates are crucial for tracking the study’s progress and anticipating results that could influence market dynamics.
The ongoing study could significantly impact Mirum Pharmaceuticals’ stock performance, as positive outcomes may enhance investor confidence and position the company favorably against competitors in the PBC treatment market.
The study is currently recruiting, with further details available on the ClinicalTrials portal.
