New drug tested to tame overactive liver disease

NCT ID NCT05569759

Summary

This study tested whether adding an experimental drug called zetomipzomib to standard steroid treatment could better control autoimmune hepatitis. It involved 24 adults whose liver disease was still active despite standard care. Participants received either the new drug or a placebo injection weekly for 24 weeks, alongside their regular steroids, to see if it improved their liver tests and allowed them to reduce steroid doses.
