Other Events. |
On November 29, 2022, Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company") determined that it will discontinue the Company's OHANA Phase 2b clinical trial of volixibat in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy ("ICP") due to enrollment feasibility. ICP is a setting of cholestasis during pregnancy with pruritus and elevated bile acid levels that can lead to fetal complications. An interim analysis did show that patients treated with volixibat saw meaningful reductions in serum bile acids and pruritus; however, the Company has decided to discontinue the OHANA Phase 2b clinical trial due to the unique challenges in enrollment in the high-risk pregnancy setting, which allows the Company to prioritize other programs.
