Volixibat (SHP626; formerly LUM002) is a potent inhibitor of the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) that was developed for the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. Volixibat participated in phase II clinical trial to investigate its safety, effectiveness in adults with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. However, this study was discontinued, without any further explanation for the possible causes. In addition, volixibat was studied in a clinical trial in healthy adults and in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, where was shown that the drug was generally well tolerated.
