More Than a Question of Correlation: Characterization of the Evidentiary Basis for Biomarker Surrogates Used in European Marketing Authorizations

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 6, Page 1522-1536, June 2026.
Traditionally, clinical outcomes measuring how a patient feels, functions, or survives are preferred endpoints in clinical trials; however, some may take a long time to manifest in slowly developing diseases. Biomarkers, if properly validated, can serve as surrogate endpoints, acting as substitutes for clinical outcomes.

Abcb4 Haploinsufficiency Sensitises Mice to a Diet‐Induced PSC‐Like Hepatobiliary Phenotype With Gallstone Formation

Liver International Communications, Volume 7, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT ABCB4 translocates phospholipids (PL) into bile to buffer the toxicity of bile acids (BA) and free cholesterol (CHOL). While recessively inherited ABCB4 deficiency causes childhood Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis type 3, haploinsufficiency has been linked to adult‐onset hepatobiliary diseases.

Hepatic Monoclonal Light‐ and Heavy‐Chain Deposition Disease Presenting as Noncirrhotic Portal Hypertension With Ascites

Liver International Communications, Volume 7, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD) is a plasma cell disorder where immunoglobulin light‐ and/or heavy‐chains accumulate in various organs. Hepatic involvement can be challenging to diagnose, as manifestations are protean and Congo red staining is negative.

Relative Exchangeable and Exchangeable Copper: Emerging New Biomarkers for Diagnosis and Therapy Monitoring in Wilson's Disease

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilson's disease (WD) is a genetic disorder of copper metabolism in which early diagnosis remains challenging, particularly in acute liver failure (ALF). Relative exchangeable copper (REC) and exchangeable copper (CuEXC) are emerging biomarkers for diagnosis and monitoring, but data from larger cohorts are limited.
