Excerpt from the Press Release:
FOSTER CITY, Calif., June 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Terns Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Terns” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TERN), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a portfolio of small-molecule single-agent and combination therapy candidates to address serious diseases such as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), obesity and cancer, today announced that results from clinical trials of TERN-501, TERN-101 and TERN-201 will be highlighted in several presentations at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) International Liver Congress™ (ILC) 2022, taking place June 22-26 in London, United Kingdom. The Company’s presentations will include four posters and one oral presentation.
The oral presentation titled “Multiple doses of thyroid hormone receptor-beta agonist TERN-501 were well-tolerated and resulted in significant dose-dependent changes in serum lipids and sex hormone binding globulin in a first-in-human clinical study,” will be delivered by Cara Nelson, Ph.D., senior director of clinical pharmacology at Terns, on Saturday, June 25 at 6:15 p.m. BT. This presentation will highlight results from the multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohort of the Phase 1 clinical trial of TERN-501 in healthy volunteers with mildly elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c). 3, 6 and 10 mg of TERN-501 administered for 14 days was overall safe and well-tolerated with no study drug discontinuations and significant, dose-dependent increases in sex hormone binding globulin, a marker of THR-β target engagement in the liver that has been associated with liver fat content reductions and histopathologic improvements in THR-β treated NASH patients. This study supports further investigation of TERN-501 for NASH treatment alone or in combination with other agents.
