Alagille Syndrome Understanding
Alagille Syndrome: Overview
Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a rare genetic disorder that can affect multiple organ systems of the body including the liver, heart, skeleton, eyes and kidneys. The specific symptoms and severity of Alagille syndrome can vary greatly from one person to another, even within the same family. Some individuals may have mild forms of the disorder while others may have more serious forms. Common symptoms, which often develop during the first three months of life, include blockage of the flow of bile from the liver (cholestasis), yellowing of the skin and mucous membranes (jaundice), poor weight gain and growth, and severe itching (pruritis). Alagille syndrome is caused by mutations in one of two genes - the JAG1 gene or the NOTCH2 gene. Mutations of the JAG1 gene have been identified in more than 88 percent of cases. Mutations in the NOTCH2 gene account for less than 1 percent of cases. These mutations are inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. A diagnosis of Alagille syndrome is made based upon identification of characteristic symptoms, a detailed patient history, a thorough clinical evaluation and a variety of specialized tests. The treatment of Alagille syndrome is directed toward the specific symptoms that are apparent in each individual. Treatment may require the coordinated efforts of a team of specialists.Alagille Syndrome - Pipeline Insight, 2024 report outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Alagille Syndrome pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Alagille Syndrome treatment guidelines. The assessment part of the report embraces, in depth Alagille Syndrome commercial assessment and clinical assessment of the pipeline products under development.

Report Highlights
The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence Alagille Syndrome R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve Alagille Syndrome.Alagille Syndrome Emerging Drugs Chapters
This segment of the Alagille Syndrome report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.Alagille Syndrome Emerging Drugs
Maralixibat: Mirum Pharmaceuticals Maralixibat is a novel, minimally absorbed, orally administered investigational medication being evaluated in several rare cholestatic liver diseases. Maralixibat inhibits the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT), resulting in more bile acids being excreted in the feces, leading to lower levels of bile acids systemically, thereby potentially reducing bile acid-mediated liver damage and related effects and complications. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted maralixibat Breakthrough Therapy designation for the treatment of pruritus associated with ALGS one year of age and older and for the treatment of PFIC2. Orphan Drug Designation was also granted to maralixibat for the treatment of patients with PFIC, ALGS and biliary atresia in the United States. Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: MIRM) today announced it has completed submission of its rolling New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for maralixibat for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in patients with Alagille syndrome (ALGS) one year of age and older.Alagille Syndrome: Therapeutic Assessment
