Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percentage of Participants With at Least a 70% Reduction in Fasting Serum Bile Acid (s-BA) Concentration From Baseline to the End of Treatment or Reaching a Level <=70 Micromoles Per Liter (Mcmol/L) After 24 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 24
Fasting s-BA baseline was calculated as the average of the last 2 values prior to the first dose. The end value was the average of the values at Weeks 22 and 24 after the start of double-blind treatment. Participants who had at least 70% reduction in fasting s-BA from baseline to the end of treatment or reached \<=70 mcmol/L after 24 weeks of treatment were considered as responder. Participants with missing average at the end of treatment were classified as non-responder. Percentages are rounded to hundredth decimal.
Percentage of Positive Pruritus Assessments at the Participant Level Based on the Albireo Observer-Reported Outcome (ObsRO) Instrument Over the 24-Week Treatment Period
Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 24
A positive pruritus assessment was defined as a scratching score of \<=1 or at least 1 point drop from baseline. The percentage of positive pruritus assessment was calculated as the number of positive pruritus assessments divided by the total number of reported assessments only when more than 50% of planned assessment recorded by each participant multiplied by 100.
Secondary Outcomes
- Change From Baseline in Serum Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) Concentration at Weeks 12 and 24(Baseline (Day 1) and Weeks 12 and 24)
- Change From Baseline in Fasting Serum Bile Acid at Weeks 12 and 24(Baseline (Day 1) and Weeks 12 and 24)
- Change From Baseline in Growth Parameters at Weeks 12 and 24(Baseline (Day 1) and Weeks 12 and 24)
- Percentage of Responders for Pruritus Assessments Based on Bi-Weekly and Monthly Scores Using the Albireo Observer-Reported Outcome Instrument at Weeks 12 and 24(Weeks 12 and 24)
- Change From Baseline in Sleep Parameters Based on the Albireo Observer-reported Outcome Instrument Over the 24-Week Treatment Period(Baseline (Day 1) and Weeks 1 to 4, Weeks 5 to 8, Weeks 9 to 12, Weeks 13 to 16, Weeks 17 to 20, and Weeks 21 to 24)
- Change From Baseline in Sleep Parameters Based on the Albireo Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) Instrument Over the 24-Week Treatment Period(Baseline (Day 1) and Weeks 1 to 4, Weeks 5 to 8, Weeks 9 to 12, Weeks 13 to 16, Weeks 17 to 20, and Weeks 21 to 24)
- Percentage of Individual Assessments Meeting the Definition of a Positive Pruritus Assessment at the Participant Level Using the Albireo ObsRO Instrument Over the 24-Week Treatment Period(Baseline (Day 1) and Weeks 1 to 4, Weeks 5 to 8, Weeks 9 to 12, Weeks 13 to 16, Weeks 17 to 20, and Weeks 21 to 24)
- Percentage of Individual Assessments Meeting the Definition of a Positive Pruritus Assessment at the Participant Level Using the Albireo PRO Instrument Over the 24-Week Treatment Period(From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 24)
- Number of Participants Underwent Biliary Diversion Surgery and Liver Transplantation(From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 24)
- Number of Participants Achieved Positive Pruritus Assessment for >50% of the Time Based on the Albireo ObsRO and PRO Instruments Over the 24-Week Treatment Period(From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 24)
