Inventiva announces completion of enrollment in the Phase 3 NATiV3 clinical trial of lanifibranor in patients with MASH and advanced fibrosis
Inventiva (Euronext Paris and Nasdaq: IVA) (“Inventiva” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of oral small molecule therapies for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (“MASH”) and other diseases with significant unmet medical needs, today announced the completion of patient enrollment in its NATiV3 Phase 3 clinical trial with the randomization of the last patient in the main cohort. Inventiva has enrolled 1009 patients in the main cohort and 410 patients in the exploratory cohort exceeding the original target of 969 and 350, respectively.

Topline results of NATiV3 are expected in the second half of 2026.
Completion of enrollment in NATiV3 supports satisfaction of certain conditions related to the second tranche of approximately €116 million of the structured financing announced in October 2024 of up to €348 million, including: (i) the last patient in the NATiV3 main cohort randomized before April 30, 2025 and (ii) at the time of completion of enrollment in NATiV3, a drop-out rate of less than 30% before week 72. The second tranche of the structured financing is subject to additional conditions as set forth in the subscription agreements and there can be no guarantee that all conditions will be satisfied or that the second tranche or any further tranches of the structured financing will close on the expected timing or at all .
NATiV3 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of lanifibranor (800mg/daily and 1200mg/daily) in 1009 adult patients with biopsy-proven non-cirrhotic MASH and F2/F3 stage of liver fibrosis. The effect of lanifibranor will be assessed on several histological endpoints, including MASH resolution and improvement of fibrosis of at least one stage after 72 weeks treatment. An exploratory cohort has enrolled 410 patients with MASH and fibrosis screen-failed on histology for the main NATiV3 clinical trial. Inventiva anticipates that this exploratory cohort may allow the generation of additional data using non-invasive tests and contribute to the regulatory safety database requirement to support the planned submission for regulatory approval of lanifibranor for the treatment of MASH.

About lanifibranor
Lanifibranor, Inventiva's lead product candidate, is an orally available small molecule that acts to induce antifibrotic, anti-inflammatory and beneficial vascular and metabolic changes in the body by activating all three peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (“PPAR”) isoforms, which are well-characterized nuclear receptor proteins that regulate gene expression. Lanifibranor is a PPAR agonist that is designed to target all three PPAR isoforms in a moderately potent manner, with a well-balanced activation of PPARα and PPARδ, and a partial activation of PPARγ. While there are other PPAR agonists that target only one or two PPAR isoforms for activation, lanifibranor is the only pan-PPAR agonist in clinical development for the treatment of MASH. Inventiva believes that lanifibranor's moderate and balanced pan-PPAR binding profile contributes to the favorable tolerability profile that has been observed in clinical trials and preclinical studies to date. The FDA has granted Breakthrough Therapy and Fast Track designation to lanifibranor for the treatment of MASH.
