Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of GKT13783 in patients with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) who are taking a stable dose of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) treatment, and have persistently high levels of a liver enzyme called Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP).

Study of INT-747 as Monotherapy in Participants With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC)

Liver CirrhosisBiliary

The primary hypothesis was that obeticholic acid (OCA) will cause a reduction in alkaline phosphatase levels in PBC participants, over a 12-week treatment period, as compared to placebo.

Effectiveness of S-adenosyl-L-methionine in Patients With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disorder which may lead to several symptoms such as intractable pruritus or chronic fatigue, significantly impairing patients quality of life. Recent studies show, that chronic liver diseases are associated with an acquired deficiency of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe) synthetase, responsible for the synthesis of SAMe from methionine. SAMe deficiency is associated with impaired detoxification and hepatoprotection and exacerbate liver injury. Supplementation with SAMe has proven useful in several liver diseases. The study group will include 20 patients with PBC diagnosed with European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) criteria, who have been already treated with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). They will receive SAMe in the dose of 1600 mg bd over the period of 6 months. Both clinical and laboratory aspects will be analyzed: liver serum biochemistry, serum and urine bile acids metabolites, transient elastography and health related quality of life.

Study of Abatacept (Orencia) to Treat Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

The purpose of this study is to determine if abatacept (Orencia) is effective in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis who do not respond adequately to standard treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA, Urso, Ursodiol, Actigall).

Safety and Efficacy of Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid Versus Ursofalk in the Treatment of Adult Primary...

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Though ursodeoxycholate acid (UDCA) is the wellknown effective therapy for PBC, clinical effectiveness of UDCA may be limited by its poor absorption and extensive biotransformation. The more hydrophilic bile acid tauroursodeoxycholate (TUDCA) is the active ingredients of UDCA, and has been approved by state food and drug administration in China for treatment of cholesterol stones. So it is necessary to verify the efficacy and safety of TUDCA in the treatment of adult primary biliary cirrhosis. In this randomized, double-blinded, double-dummy, parallel-controlled and multicenter clinical trial, we detect the proportion of patients who had AKP decline more than 25% as the primary outcome; decline of AKP, total bilirubin, GGT, ALT and AST as secondary outcomes after patients were treated with TUDCA or UDCA for 24 weeks.

CholestasisIntrahepatic

This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess safety and tolerability of GSK2330672 administration in subjects with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and symptoms of pruritus. It is a double-blind, crossover study with subjects receiving placebo or GSK23306772 in random order during two 14-day treatment periods. Additionally, the study will determine GSK2330672 exposure and interactions with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). The total duration of subject participation will be 14 weeks for screening (45 days) and the treatment period. Subjects who are eligible for enrolment will participate in a 2-week placebo run-in period. Subjects will be randomized in a crossover fashion (Sequence 1 / Sequence 2) to receive placebo or GSK2330672 treatment during two consecutive 2-week study periods. Subjects will then participate in a 2-week placebo dosing follow-up period ending in final follow-up assessments. Study results will be utilized to form a benefit: risk profile for GSK2330672 in PBC that will determine plans for progression to exploratory efficacy trials

Study Comparing Tetrathiomolybdate vs Standard Treatment in Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

The University of Michigan is conducting a study investigating a potential new treatment aimed at slowing/halting progression of primary biliary cirrhosis. This will be a 2 arm double blind study in which half of the patients will be randomly selected to receive a placebo (capsule with no active ingredient) and half will receive the new treatment drug, tetrathiomolybdate. Neither the patient nor the treating physician will know which arm the patient is in. The length of the study for each patient is 24 months of drug therapy. Lab draws will be necessary weekly for the first 6 weeks of the study, followed by every other week for 3 weeks, and then monthly for the remainder of the 2 year period. In addition, intermittent history and physicals and urine samples will also be necessary. There is no cost to you for any experimental treatment. All patients in both arms will continue on ursodiol and receive standard of care treatment
