Unravelling the Mechanism of TAK875 DILI

Posted by Evotec on Feb 12, 2021 3:54:17 PM

TAK-875 (fasiglifam) is a GPR40 agonist which was developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. However, TAK-875 was withdrawn from phase III clinical trials due to drug-induced liver injury (DILI).

In this poster, we focus on:

  • investigating the mechanism behind the hepatotoxicity of TAK-875
  • an in-depth understanding of the effect of TAK-875 on mitochondrial toxicity 
  • understanding the impact of plasma protein binding
