BACKGROUND & AIMS: At least 20%-30% of patients with intestinal failure receiving long-term parenteral nutrition will develop intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD), for which there are few therapeutic options. SEFA-6179 is a first-in-class structurally engineered medium-chain fatty acid analogue that acts through GPR84, PPARα, and PPARγ agonism. We hypothesized that SEFA-6179 would prevent biochemical and histologic liver injury in a preterm piglet model of IFALD.
METHODS: Preterm Yorkshire piglets were delivered by cesarean section, and parenteral nutrition was provided for 14 days via implanted central venous catheters. Animals were treated with either medium-chain triglyceride vehicle control or SEFA-6179.
RESULTS: Compared to medium-chain triglyceride vehicle at day of life 15, SEFA-6179 prevented biochemical cholestasis (direct bilirubin: 1.9 vs <0.2 mg/dL, P = .01; total bilirubin: 2.7 vs 0.4 mg/dL, P = .02; gamma glutamyl transferase: 172 vs 30 U/L, P = .01). SEFA-6179 also prevented steatosis (45.6 vs 13.9 mg triglycerides/g liver tissue, P = .009), reduced bile duct proliferation (1.6% vs 0.5% area cytokeratin 7 positive, P = .009), and reduced fibrosis assessed by a masked pathologist (median Ishak score: 3 vs 1, P = 0.007). RNA sequencing of liver tissue demonstrated that SEFA-6179 broadly impacted inflammatory, metabolic, and fibrotic pathways, consistent with its in vitro receptor activity (GPR84/PPARα/PPARγ agonist).
CONCLUSIONS: In a preterm piglet model of IFALD, SEFA-6179 treatment prevented biochemical cholestasis and steatosis and reduced bile duct proliferation and fibrosis. SEFA-6179 is a promising first-in-class therapy for the prevention and treatment of IFALD that will be investigated in an upcoming phase II clinical trial.
