ENYO Pharma Announces Multiple EYP001 Data Presentations At AASLD Conference


ENYO Pharma (ENYO), a private clinical stage biotechnology company developing innovative drug candidates, today announced the presentation of five abstracts (four posters and one oral presentation) at the AALSD (American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases) meeting which will be held from the 8th to the 12th of November in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. During the conference, ENYO Pharma will also sponsor a Symposium on the 10th of November, to discuss recent advances in the understanding of the replication of Hepatitis B (HBV) and the potential ability of Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonists, such as EYP001, to provide a functional cure for HBV.

"We are really proud to have five abstracts selected for presentation at the international AASLD meeting. The number of presentations clearly demonstrates the scientific excellence of the ENYO Pharma team and the potential of EYP001 to treat Hepatitis B," stated Jacky Vonderscher, PhD, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of ENYO. "During the conference we will also be holding a symposium with high level, key opinion leaders to discuss ENYO's research and our innovative approach to potentially cure Hepatitis B," continued Dr. Vonderscher.

About EYP001

EYP001 (Vonafexor, proposed INN) is an orally bioavailable 2nd generation non-bile acid FXR agonist that is currently in Phase II clinical development in both HBV and Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH).

FXR agonists have gained attention as potential therapeutic agents in hepatobiliary and metabolic diseases. FXR activation has a favorable effect on liver growth and regeneration and has been shown to prevent and resolve liver fibrosis and steatosis in rodents and humans. FXR has multiple activities and regulates several metabolic pathways. In particular, it controls the homeostasis of bile acids in the liver and intestine, it influences the insulin sensitivity of tissues where it is highly expressed and impacts upon lipid metabolism.
