Hi, good news the NorUrso Phase 2 Study result is absolute promising and they will start Phase III

Qoute form sciencedaily

A multi-centric phase II study with 45 involved centres from all across Europe led by MedUni Wien, demonstrated that when norUrso was administered to 161 patients for the first time "there were significant improvements in liver function test results in all tested dosing" according to Michael Trauner, head of the clinical department for Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the MedUni Vienna.

If I remember it correctly, the main result is that maximal dose achieved 25% decrease of ALP in all pts, which might indicate a promising result. But again, think about what happened to high dose of ursodiol. Definitely need to wait for phase III. Hopefully it's a real oneI.
