About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Cholestatic Liver Disease focused on measuring PFIC, ALGS, Maralixibat, Bile Duct Diseases, Liver Diseases, Biliary Tract Diseases, Digestive System Diseases, Pediatric

Eligibility Criteria

12 Months - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria Subjects will need to meet all criteria below to be considered eligible for the study.

  1. Provide informed consent and assent (as applicable) per the Institutional Review Board/Ethics Committee (IRB/EC).
  2. Previously participated in a maralixibat study and with approval of the Medical Monitor. Previous participation is defined as:

    • Having completed the EOT Visit, for subjects coming from the maralixibat Phase 2 studies.
    • Having completed the entire duration of the study (i.e., core and extension, if applicable), for subjects coming from the maralixibat Phase 3 studies.
  3. At least 1 year of age
  4. Males, and females of non-childbearing potential. Males and non-pregnant, non-lactating females of childbearing potential who are sexually active must agree to use acceptable contraception during the study and 30 days following the last dose of the study medication. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test.
  5. Caregivers (and/or age appropriate subjects) must have access to email or phone for scheduled remote visits if applicable.
  6. Subject and caregiver willingness to comply with all study visits and requirements.

Exclusion Criteria

A subject will be excluded from the study if any of the following exclusion criteria are met:

  1. Experienced an AE or SAE related to maralixibat during the lead-in protocol that led to permanent discontinuation of the subject from maralixibat.
  2. Any conditions or abnormalities (including laboratory abnormalities) which, in the opinion of the Investigator or Medical Monitor may compromise the safety of the subject or interfere with the subject participating in or completing the study.
  3. History of non-adherence to medical regimens, unreliability, medical condition, mental instability or cognitive impairment that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor medical monitor, could compromise the validity of informed consent, compromise the safety of the subject, or lead to non-adherence with the study protocol or inability to conduct the study procedures.

Arm Description

Participants will all receive Maralixibat oral solution

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Frequency of reported adverse events AEs
Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) will be defined as AEs that start or deteriorate on or after the first dose of study medication and no later than 14 days following the last dose of study medication or reported through the End of Trial ( EOT/ET) Visit. In this study, all AEs will be considered TEAEs.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change from maralixibat baseline over the course of the study in the weekly average morning ItchRO(Obs)™ severity score (ALGS and PFIC)
Change from maralixibat baseline over the course of the study in the weekly average morning ItchRO(Obs)™ frequency score (ALGS and PFIC)
Evaluate the long-term effect of maralixibat on pruritus severity using in the Clinician Scratch Scale (CSS) as change from baseline over the course of the study
Evaluate the long-term effect of maralixibat on serum bile acid levels
Evaluate the long-term effect of maralixibat on time to liver-associated outcomes reported as a mean change from baseline (i.e., partial external biliary diversion [PEBD] or liver transplantation)
Evaluate the long-term effects of maralixibat on growth
Change from baseline in height and weight, summarized as a Z-score over the course of the study
Change from maralixibat baseline over the course of the study in mean total serum bilirubin
