DUBLIN, Jan. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Mallinckrodt plc, a global specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced the presentation of findings from a post hoc analysis of the Phase 3 CONFIRM clinical trial. In this analysis, treatment with TERLIVAZ® (terlipressin) for injection was associated with improvements in verified hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) reversal and HRS reversal vs. placebo in adult cirrhosis patients with alcoholic hepatitis (AH) and HRS with rapid reduction in kidney function.1,2 The results will be shared in an oral presentation at the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) 2024 Critical Care Congress, taking place January 21-23, 2024, in Phoenix, AZ.

Key Points: 
  • Patients with volume overload or with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) Grade 3 are at increased risk.
  • Monitor patients for hypoxia using continuous pulse oximetry during treatment and discontinue TERLIVAZ if SpO2 decreases below 90%.
  • Ineligibility for Liver Transplant: TERLIVAZ-related adverse reactions (respiratory failure, ischemia) may make a patient ineligible for liver transplantation, if listed.
  • For patients with high prioritization for liver transplantation (e.g., MELD ≥35), the benefits of TERLIVAZ may not outweigh its risks.
