Trial of High-dose Urso in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
April 7, 2021 updated by: National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK)
Multicentered Randomized Trial of High-dose Urso in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial of high dose ursodiol versus placebo for patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC).
The average duration of follow-up will be approximately five years with important clinical endpoints such as death, eligibility for liver transplantation, changes in histology and cholangiogram as well as liver biochemistries and quality of life data collected.

Description
- Chronic cholestatic disease of at least six months' duration.
- Serum alkaline phosphatase at least 1 ½ times the upper limits of normal.
- Retrograde, operative, percutaneous, or magnetic resonance cholangiography demonstrating intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic biliary duct obstruction, beading, or narrowing consistent with PSC within one year of the study entry.
- Liver biopsy in the previous one year which is available for review and compatible with the diagnosis of PSC. Compatible biopsy features include fibrous cholangitis, ductopenia with periportal inflammation and biliary fibrosis.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants With Treatment Failure
Time Frame: 5 years
