Madrigal Pharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pursuing novel therapeutics that target a specific thyroid hormone receptor pathway in the liver, which is a key regulatory mechanism common to a spectrum of cardio-metabolic and fatty liver diseases with high unmet medical need. The Company has advanced its lead candidate, resmetirom, also known as MGL-3196, a first-in-class, orally administered, small-molecule, liver-directed, thyroid hormone receptor (THR) β-selective agonist, through Phase 2 clinical trials in NASH. Primary and key secondary endpoints were achieved including reduction of liver fat on a sensitive non-invasive imaging test, lowering of multiple atherogenic lipids including LDL-cholesterol and triglycerides, and resolution of NASH on liver biopsy. Based on evidence of broad activity and a favorable safety profile, Madrigal has initiated a Phase 3 clinical study in NASH patients with advanced liver fibrosis, MAESTRO-NASH, in which the primary endpoint after one year of dosing is resolution of NASH and key secondary endpoints include LDL-cholesterol lowering and reduction in liver fibrosis. Clinical benefit in reducing progression to more advanced liver disease, including cirrhosis, is a long-term goal of this trial. A second Phase 3 clinical study, MAESTRO-NAFLD-1, has also been initiated. This 52-week non-invasive study in a broader segment of NASH patients will provide additional safety information to support the NASH indication and will include key efficacy endpoints: LDL-cholesterol lowering, triglyceride lowering, reduction of liver fat as determined by MRI-PDFF, as well as reduction of elevated liver enzymes and reduction in fibrosis biomarkers. This is a non-biopsy study in people with NASH, as documented using non-invasive techniques or historical liver biopsy.

Elite Pharmaceuticals, Inc. develops oral sustained and controlled release products. Elite`s strategy includes assisting partner companies in the life cycle management of products, to improve off-patent drug products, and developing generic versions of controlled release drug products with high barriers to entry. Elite has four ANDA products partnered with TAGI Pharma; one ANDA has launched, two ANDAs are in the process of a manufacturing site transfer and an additional ANDA is currently under review by the FDA. Elite also manufactures Lodrane D® and receives royalties for Lodrane D®, an allergy product partnered with ECR Pharmaceuticals (“ECR”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hi-Tech Pharmacal (“Hi-Tech”). Elite`s lead pipeline products, ELI-216, a once-daily abuse resistant oxycodone, and ELI-154, a once-daily oxycodone, are novel sustained release oral formulations of opioids for the treatment of chronic pain, which address two of the limitations of existing oral opioids: the provision of consistent relief of baseline pain levels and deterrence of potential abuse. Elite also has partnered with Mikah Pharma to develop a new product and with Hi-Tech Pharmacal to develop an intermediate for a generic product.
