Item 8.01 Other Events
On October 3, 2024, Trevi Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) announced the following updates on its clinical development programs.
The Company's Phase 2b CORAL trial for the treatment of chronic cough in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has enrolled 50% of the targeted study enrollment, which is the number of patients needed for the pre-specified sample size re-estimation ("SSRE"). The SSRE will be performed once the last of these patients complete the six weeks of treatment. The outcome of the SSRE result is expected in December 2024. The three potential SSRE outcomes are: maintain current sample size (N=160), upsize within a pre-specified range, or evaluate for futility. Assuming no adjustments are made to the sample size, topline results are expected in the first half of 2025.
The Company's Human Abuse Potential study completed dosing. Topline results are expected in December 2024.
The Company's Phase 2a RIVER trial for the treatment of refractory chronic cough has enrolled the planned sample size but remains open to allow for additional enrollment in both arms to approximate the stratification targets. Topline results are now expected in the first quarter of 2025.
