INDICATIONS AND USAGE
LuciRes is a thyroid hormone receptor-beta (THR-beta) agonist indicated in conjunction with diet and exercise for the treatment of adults with noncirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis).
Limitations of Use
Avoid use of LuciRes in patients with decompensated cirrhosis.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
• The recommended dosage of LuciRes is based on actual body weight. For patients weighing:
<100 kg, the recommended dosage is 80 mg orally once daily.
≥100 kg, the recommended dosage is 100 mg orally once daily.

DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS

CONTRAINDICATIONS
None.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
• Hepatotoxicity: Monitor patients during treatment with LuciRes for elevations in liver tests and for the development of liver-related adverse reactions. Discontinue LuciRes and continue to monitor the patient if hepatotoxicity is suspected.
• Gallbladder-Related Adverse Reactions: Cholelithiasis and cholecystitis were observed more often in LuciRes-treated patients. If cholelithiasis is suspected, gallbladder diagnostic studies
and appropriate clinical follow-up are indicated. If an acute gallbladder event such as acute cholecystitis is suspected, interrupt LuciRes treatment until the event is resolved.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most common adverse reactions with LuciRes (reported in at least 5% of patients and higher compared to placebo) are: diarrhea, nausea, pruritus, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, and dizziness.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
• Strong or Moderate CYP2C8 Inhibitors: Concomitant use not recommended (strong inhibitor [e.g., gemfibrozil]); or reduce LuciRes dosage (moderate inhibitor [e.g., clopidogrel]).
• OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 Inhibitors: Concomitant use with OATP inhibitors (e.g., cyclosporine) is not recommended.
• Atorvastatin, Pravastatin, Rosuvastatin and Simvastatin: Limit the daily dosage of the statin as recommended.
• CYP2C8 Substrates: Monitor patients more frequently for substraterelated adverse reactions.
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Hepatic Impairment: Avoid use of LuciRes in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class B or C).
