• On Monday, the FDA approved Iqirvo (elafibranor) oral tablets for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults who have an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. PBC is a rare autoimmune disease in which the small bile ducts in the liver become injured and inflamed and without treatment are eventually destroyed. Use of Iqirvo is not recommended in patients who have or who develop decompensated cirrhosis (e.g., ascites, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy). Providers should also verify that patients are not pregnant prior to starting Iqirvo, inform them of the potential risk to a fetus, and advise the use of effective contraception. See full prescribing information for additional information on risks associated with Iqirvo.
