What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Alkaline Phosphatase in Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

    Blood samples were collected to assess changes in alkaline phosphatase levels.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean Percent Change From Baseline in Alkaline Phosphatase in Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

    Blood samples were collected to assess changes in alkaline phosphatase levels.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 12

  2. Mean Rate of Change in Alkaline Phosphatase in Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

    Blood samples were collected to assess rate of change in alkaline phosphatase levels. Serum levels of alkaline phosphatase was measured in a central laboratory using standard enzymatic method. The unit of measure is U/L.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 12

  3. Mean Change From Baseline in Aspartate Aminotransferase and Alanine Aminotransferase in Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

  16. Mean Change From Baseline in Enhanced Liver Fibrosis Score in Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

    Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) score is a non-invasive blood test derived from the measurement of hyaluronic acid (HA), amino terminal propeptide of type III procollagen (PIIINP), and tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease 1 (TIMP1) using a proprietary algorithm (Siemens). ELF score is a laboratory test, is unitless, and is used as a continuous variable. The minimal ELF score is zero, the maximal ELF score is unknown. The higher the ELF score, the worse the disease outcome. ELF is a score on a scale of severity assessment against biopsy-proven fibrosis. A score of \<7.7 is none to mild, \> 7.7-9.8 is moderate, \> 9.8 is severe.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 12

  17. Severity of Inflammatory Bowel Disease-Associated Intestinal Symptoms in Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

    Severity of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-associated symptoms and acute cholangitis are summarized with number and percentage. The partial Mayo IBD scale assesses stool frequency, rectal bleeding, and there is a Physician's global assessment. Each section is summed and remission is defined as a total score of 0-1, mild disease 2-4, moderate disease 5-6, and severe disease 7-9. Higher total scores indicate more severe disease. The number of participants are being presented based on the severity of their IBD symptoms.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Mar 2016 to primary completion in Jun 2017, 15 months.

Results were first posted in Jun 2025, 8 years after primary completion. A results delay was requested in Jul 2018.

Of 23 phase 2 interventional studies under Cholangitis, Sclerosing, half reached primary completion within 37 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 21 and three quarters within 62. This study's 15 months is below that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 17, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
