Mallinckrodt announced data on TERLIVAZ® (terlipressin) at the 2024 European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress. Three posters were presented, focusing on outcomes in patients with hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) and rapid kidney function decline.
Key findings include potential benefits of early diagnosis and treatment with TERLIVAZ, resulting in 3,040 more HRS reversals, 960 fewer needing renal replacement therapy, and significant healthcare cost savings. Data also showed improved survival rates in patients with lower baseline mean arterial pressure and better renal function among those with alcohol-associated hepatitis and acute-on-chronic liver failure grades 0–2.
However, the FDA has not evaluated the safety and efficacy of TERLIVAZ within these subgroups. Limitations include small sample sizes and potential methodological errors. TERLIVAZ remains the only FDA-approved treatment for adults with HRS with rapid kidney function decline, but it poses serious respiratory risks, particularly in specific patient groups.
Mallinckrodt presented data on TERLIVAZ® (terlipressin) for treating hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) at the 2024 Digestive Disease Week in Washington, DC. The presentations included a post-hoc analysis from the Phase III CONFIRM trial and a pooled analysis of three Phase III studies. The results indicate that TERLIVAZ is effective in improving kidney function in patients with HRS-AKI, even with dose interruptions, and is particularly beneficial for patients with baseline serum creatinine (SCr) levels below 5 mg/dL. TERLIVAZ is the first FDA-approved treatment for HRS with rapid kidney function decline, impacting over 42,000 Americans annually. The safety profile includes risks of serious respiratory failure and ischemic events, and the treatment is not recommended for certain high-risk patients.
Mallinckrodt plc reported first quarter 2024 financial results with net sales of $467.8 million, showing 10.2% year-over-year growth.
