    Data from the analysis demonstrated a significant improvement in six-year event-free survival with a p-value of <0.0001 (HR: 0.305, 95% CI: 0.189-0.491) translating to a 70% overall reduction for clinical outcomes with LIVMARLI. The analysis also showed statistically significant improvements in transplant-free survival (liver transplantation or death) as compared to the GALA cohort with a p-value of <0.0001 (after adjusting for age, sex, total bilirubin, and ALT) (HR: 0.332; 95% CI 0.197-0.559). Sensitivity and subgroup analyses demonstrated overall consistency with the primary results.

    The full publication including additional data from the analysis is available on the Hepatology website.

    About Alagille Syndrome

    Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a rare genetic disorder in which bile ducts are abnormally narrow, malformed and reduced in number, which leads to bile accumulation in the liver and ultimately progressive liver disease. The estimated incidence of ALGS is one in every 30,000 people. In patients with ALGS, multiple organ systems may be affected by the mutation, including the liver, heart, kidneys, and central nervous system. The accumulation of bile acids prevents the liver from working properly to eliminate waste from the bloodstream and, according to recent reports, 60% to 75% of patients with ALGS have a liver transplant before reaching adulthood. Signs and symptoms arising from liver damage in ALGS may include jaundice (yellowing of the skin), xanthomas (disfiguring cholesterol deposits under the skin), and pruritus (itch). The pruritus experienced by patients with ALGS is among the most severe in any chronic liver disease and is present in most affected children by the third year of life.
