1 The Future Outlook to DILI Research From The Perspective of China Yimin Mao Renji Hospital,Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine

2 DILI in General Population Less than 20/100,000 The incidence increased in the elder people

3 Drug Can Cause All Kinds of Liver Injury We Have Ever Known DILI is one of the most common reason for unknown cause liver injury/liver disease

4 DILI in Different Countries

5 DILI-R Research Study Population: Hospitalized Patient during hospitals nationwide which cover all 31 provinces in mainland China involved 29,687 DILI cases in total enrolled

6 DILI Incidence Among Hospitalized Patients DILI incidence ( ) by geographic locations of China South SW North NW East Central NE DILI 3-year incidence:1.75 unpublished data

7 Increasing DILI Incidence Trend of DILI Incidence ( ) of China unpublished data

8 DILI Incidence Higher in Non-tertiary Hospitals DILI incidence ( ) in tertiary and non-tertiary hospitals of China Tertiary Non-tertiary P < unpublished data

9 Top-10 Classes of Suspicious Drug in General Hospitals TCM Anti-biotics (include anti-tb drug) herbs Chinese patent drug anti-tumor drug are major suspicious drugs unpublished data

10 Top-20 Suspicious Drugs unpublished data

11 Compare with WM, DILI Latentperiod is longer for those who Take TCM TCM Westen Medicine P < unpublished data

12 40% DILI Patients Take at Least 2 Suspicious Drugs Unsure 1 suspicious drug 2 suspicious drugs 3 or more unpublished data

13 Live Injury Types Hepatocellular injury Cholestatic injury Mixed injury Unsure unpublished data

14 At Baseline, ALT Above 10xULN Among 30% Patients Missing, unknown unpublished data

15 30% patients meet criteria of Hy's Law Percentage of Hepatocyte injury type of DILI meeting Hy's Law criteria Yes No About 3% patients progressed to liver failure or death unpublished data

16 Liver Histology Presents Many Kinds of Liver Injury Liver histology charateristics Cases and percentage Acute hepatitis 438(28.59%) Chronic hepatitis 239(15.60%) Acute cholestasis 15(0.98%) Chronic cholestasis 10(0.65%) Cholestatic hepatitis 72(4.70%) Granulomatous change 3(0.20%) Macrosteatosis 9(0.59%) Microsteatosis 10(0.65%) NASH 17(1.11%) Coagulation/fusion necrosis 3(0.20%) Non focal necrosis 1(0.07%) Hepatocyte change 44(2.87%) Mixed or miscellaneous liver injury 3(0.20%) Slight nonspecific change 57(3.72%) Absolutely normal 4(0.26%) Massive necrosis 2(0.13%) Other 392(25.59%) Unknown 219(14.30%) Among 1532 cases,chronic DILI are16.25% unpublished data

17 Interventional Research

18 Magnesium Iso-glycyrrhizinate(MgIG) in The Treatment of Subjects with DILI Low dose 100mg/d(N=72) 216 DILI patients High dose 200mg/d(N=72) Tiopronin 100mg/d(N=72) Primary endpoint: ALT normalization at weeks 4 0 w 4 w Randomized, double-blind, multi-doses, active drug controlled, multi-center study

19 Study Subjects

20 Rates of ALT Normalization At Weeks 1-4 Group A: low dose study drug; Group C: high dose study drug Group B: active control P < at Week 2 3 and 4 unpublished data

21 Rates of ALT Normalization At Weeks 1-4 for Subjects Who Stopped Suspicious Drug P < at Week 3 and 4 unpublished data

22 Rates of ALT Normalization At Weeks 1-4 for Subjects Who Cont' with Suspicious Drug P < at Week 2 3 and 4 unpublished data

23 MgIG Approved of the Indication To Treat Acute DILI The only drug approved of DILI indication globally

24 Translational Research Between Basic and Clinical

25 Anti-inflammation Mechanism of MgIG Pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNFα, IL-1β, ) Viruses, Bacteria TLRs, TNFR, IL- 1R Dose dependently inhibit 3 major Inflammatory pathway: PLA2/AA signal channel IG PLA 2 AA IG p38, JNK, ERK MAPK AP-1 IKK IκBα/NF- κ B (p65/p50) IG NF-κB signal channel MAPK/AP-1 signal channel COX LOX PGE, PGI, Cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6) Chemokines (IL-8) TBX 2, LTB 4 Enzymes (inos, COX-2, LOX, PLA 2 ) Inflammatory response 25
