Introduction: Etrasimod is an investigational, oral, once-daily, selective sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P)1,4,5 receptor modulator in development for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). Patients (pts) with inflammatory bowel disease may experience changes in liver function tests,1 with liver adverse events (AEs) reported in previous S1P receptor modulator trials.2
Methods: Here, we report liver-associated treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) from the etrasimod UC clinical program. Pts in the phase (p)2 (OASIS, NCT02447302), p3 (ELEVATE UC 52, NCT03945188; ELEVATE UC 12, NCT03996369), and p2 and p3 open-label extension (OLE) studies (NCT02536404; NCT03950232; NCT04176588 [data snapshot January 31, 2022]) were evaluated in two data cohorts: Pivotal UC (ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE 12) and All UC (all p2, p3, and OLE studies). Exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIRs; number of pts with AEs divided by total pt-years [PY] at risk for AEs), of liver-related TEAEs, per 1 PY for hepatobiliary disorders and per 100 PY for investigations among pts receiving etrasimod (2 mg once daily, both cohorts) or placebo (PBO; Pivotal UC cohort) were examined. EAIRs, per 100 PY, of liver-related sponsor-designated events of interest (SDEIs) in the Pivotal UC cohort, and discontinuations due to liver-related TEAEs in the All UC cohort, were assessed.
Results: In the Pivotal UC cohort (etrasimod, N=527; PBO, N=260), incidence of liver-related TEAEs was higher in etrasimod- (EAIR ≤ 4.04) vs PBO-treated (EAIRs ≤ 2.86) pts (Table). Similarly, in the All UC cohort (etrasimod, N=942), EAIRs of liver-related TEAEs were ≤ 4.06 (Table). Proportions of pts with liver-related TEAEs across both cohorts were ≤ 3.3% and ≤ 1.2% for etrasimod- and PBO-treated pts, respectively. In the Pivotal UC cohort, incidence of SDEIs in etrasimod- (EAIR ≤ 2.55) and PBO-treated (EAIR ≤ 1.89) pts was low, and occurred in 1.3% and 0.8% of pts, respectively (Table). In the All UC cohort, three etrasimod-treated pts discontinued due to liver-related TEAEs: abnormal liver function test, increased blood alkaline phosphatase, and increased alanine aminotransferase, respectively.
Discussion: Incidence of liver-related TEAEs and SDEIs was generally low among pts treated with etrasimod and PBO with infrequent etrasimod discontinuations due to liver-related TEAEs.
