Phase II data being presented at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases annual meeting indicate drug development in the field of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is making steady progress.
A primary endpoint failure but with outstanding estimated glomerular filtration rates and impressive safety data in the phase II trial called Bestow are adding up to plans for later-stage work with Eledon Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s tegoprubart (tego) for preventing rejection in de novo kidney transplant.
Takeda Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd.’s anti-CD38 antibody, mezagitamab (TAK-079), sustained kidney function up to 18 months after treatment ended in patients with primary immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy, showing early signs of disease modification in a phase Ib study presented at the American Society of Nephrology’s Kidney Week 2025 in Houston.
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) carrying topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitors, such as trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), have achieved notable clinical success in HER2-positive and HER2-low cancers, but their broader application is challenged by payload-related safety issues and emerging resistance.
