GENFIT, a BCorp™ certified company since 2025, is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of patients with rare and severe liver diseases characterized by high unmet medical needs. 

GENFIT is a pioneer in liver disease research and development with a rich history and strong scientific heritage spanning more than two decades. Its capacity to develop high potential assets, from early-stages to late development and pre-commercialization stages, is illustrated through the successful 52-week readout of its Phase 3 trial (ELATIVE®) evaluating elafibranor in Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC). 

Today, GENFIT has a diversified R&D pipeline covering several therapeutic areas: five programs in acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) are in clinical stages (Phase 2) and pre-clinical stages, including hepatic encephalopathy (HE), one of the main complications of ACLF; a Phase 2 clinical program targeting cholangiocarcinoma; and a preclinical program targeting urea cycle disorders (UCD) and organic acidemias (OA). GENFIT’s pipeline also includes a diagnostic franchise focused on Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH, formerly known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis or NASH) and ammonia. GENFIT has facilities in Lille and Paris (France), Zurich (Switzerland) and Cambridge, MA (USA). 

GENFIT is a publicly traded company listed on compartment B of Euronext’s regulated market in Paris ( Euronext: GNFT). In 2021, IPSEN became one of GENFIT’s largest shareholders and holds 8% of the company’s share capital.
