Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male or female between 18 and 75 years of age;
  • Have a clinical diagnosis of PSC as evident by chronic cholestasis of more than six months duration with either a consistent magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP)/endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) showing sclerosing cholangitis;
  • If subjects have Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) they will be eligible to participate. If a subject has IBD, documented evidence of IBD must have been evident by prior endoscopy or in previous medical records for ≥6 months. In addition, subjects may only enter the study with a Partial Mayo Score of 0-4, inclusively. Subjects who are on treatment are allowed, provided they are stable for 3 months if taking:

    1. 5-amino salicylic acid drugs,
    2. azathioprine,
    3. 6-mercaptopurine, or methotrexate
    4. biologics;
  • Have a serum ALP ≥1.5 × (ULN);
  • Be able to understand and sign a written form (ICF);
  • Subjects receiving allowed concomitant medications need to be on stable therapy for 28 days prior to the Baseline visit, with the exception of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), which should be stable for at least 6 weeks prior to the Baseline visit.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of documented secondary sclerosing cholangitis (such as ischemic cholangitis, recurrent pancreatitis, intraductal stone disease, severe bacterial cholangitis, surgical or blunt abdominal trauma, recurrent pyogenic cholangitis, choledocholithiasis, toxic sclerosing cholangitis due to chemical agents, or any other cause of secondary sclerosing cholangitis) on prior clinical investigations;
  • Small duct PSC;
  • Presence of percutaneous drain or bile duct stent;
  • History of cholangiocarcinoma or clinical suspicion of new dominant stricture within 1 year by MRCP/ERCP. Presence of dominant stricture without ERCP evidence of cholangiocarcinoma is acceptable if stable for ≥ 1 year;
  • Ascending cholangitis within 60 days prior to Screening;
  • History of alcohol or substance abuse or dependence;
  • Prior or planned liver transplantation;
  • Presence of alternative causes of chronic liver disease, including alcoholic liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, hepatitis;
  • count below 125,000/mm3, albumin below 3.0 g/dL, (INR) > 1.2, or a history of ascites, or encephalopathy, or history of esophageal variceal bleeding;
  • Severe active IBD or flare in colitis activity within the last 90 days requiring intensification of therapy beyond baseline treatment;
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

INR, PT and aPTT (clotting tests)

Blood tests of how long blood takes to clot. The INR is the prothrombin time (PT) put on a common scale; about 1 is usual for someone not taking a blood thinner.

Criteria often make an exception for people on a blood thinner such as warfarin, whose INR is raised on purpose.

Baseline characteristics

A total of 59 subjects were randomized into the study, 55 subjects were included in the safety population and 54 subjects were included in the modified intent-to-treat population (mITT). Four subjects were randomized but did not get study drug - two subjects were not started on study drug because of COVID-19, one subject did not meet eligibility criteria and one subject withdrew consent.
