NI-0801, an anti-chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 antibody, in patients with primary biliary cholangitis and an incomplete response to ursodeoxycholic acid.

ABSTRACT: NI-0801 is a fully human monoclonal antibody against chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10), which is involved in the recruitment of inflammatory T cells into the liver. The safety and efficacy of NI-0801 was assessed in patients with primary biliary cholangitis. In this open-label phase 2a study, patients with primary biliary cholangitis with an inadequate response to ursodeoxycholic acid received six consecutive intravenous administrations of NI-0801 (10 mg/kg) every 2 weeks. Patients were followed up for 3 months after the last infusion. Liver function tests, safety assessments, as well as pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters were evaluated at different time points throughout the dosing period and the safety follow-up period. Twenty-nine patients were enrolled in the study
