Announcement
Trevi Therapeutics, Inc. is pleased to announce today positive topline results from its Phase 2b CORAL trial of Haduvio for the treatment of chronic cough in patients with IPF (N=165).
AI Summary
Trevi Therapeutics, Inc. announced positive topline results from its Phase 2b CORAL trial evaluating Haduvio for the treatment of chronic cough in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). In the study of 165 patients, the primary endpoint was met with statistically significant reductions in 24‑hour cough frequency across all dose groups. Patients receiving the highest dose (108 mg twice daily) experienced a 60.2% reduction, translating to a 43.3% placebo-adjusted change from baseline. Improvements were notable as early as Week 2, with rapid and sustained effects throughout the trial. Haduvio was generally well tolerated, with similar discontinuation rates due to adverse events in both Haduvio and placebo groups. Encouraged by these findings, Trevi plans to request an End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA later this year and aims to initiate a Phase 3 program in early 2026.

Trevi Therapeutics, announced additional analyses from the Phase 2a RIVER trial of Haduvio for the treatment of patients with RCC (N=66).
AI Summary
Trevi Therapeutics announced additional analyses from its Phase 2a RIVER trial for Haduvio in patients with refractory chronic cough (RCC). The trial, which enrolled 66 participants, showed that patients treated with Haduvio reached statistically significant reductions in 24‑hour cough frequency at thresholds of 30%, 50%, and 75% across all doses. Additionally, patients taking the highest dose (108 mg twice daily) had significant improvement on the patient-reported Leicester Cough Questionnaire after 21 days (p<0.0001). The study also found no significant effects from the crossover design on the primary efficacy endpoint. Adverse events were more common during the initial week at lower doses and tended to lessen over time, with most discontinuations occurring in the first two weeks due to Central Nervous System and gastrointestinal issues. Trevi remains optimistic about Haduvio’s potential and looks forward to further data from upcoming studies.

Announcement
Trevi Therapeutics, announced that it has completed enrollment in its Phase 2b CORAL trial of Haduvio for the treatment of chronic cough in patients with IPF.
AI Summary
Trevi Therapeutics announced that it has completed enrollment in its Phase 2b CORAL trial, marking a major milestone in the development of Haduvio for treating chronic cough in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial that enrolled around 160 IPF patients. It tests three different doses of Haduvio (27mg, 54mg, and 108mg taken twice daily) over a six-week period, including a two-week titration phase followed by four weeks of fixed dosing.
The company aims to determine the optimal dose for a future Phase 3 program. Topline results are expected in the first half of 2025. This trial is important because current treatments for chronic cough in IPF patients are limited and often ineffective, leaving a significant unmet medical need.

Trevi Therapeutics, Inc. announced positive results from the human abuse potential (HAP) study of oral nalbuphine.
AI Summary
Trevi Therapeutics, Inc. recently announced positive results from its human abuse potential study of oral nalbuphine. The study, designed as a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, five-way crossover trial in recreational drug users, found that the clinical doses of 81mg and 162mg of oral nalbuphine produced a statistically significant lower “Drug Liking” compared to 6mg intravenous butorphanol. This outcome was measured using a 100-point visual analog scale where drug liking scores were noticeably lower for the oral nalbuphine doses, indicating a reduced potential for abuse.
The study also assessed secondary endpoints, which supported the primary findings. There were no serious adverse events reported, reinforcing the promising safety profile of oral nalbuphine for further development. These findings are important as they suggest that oral nalbuphine may address a significant health need while posing fewer public safety risks compared to other opioids.
