简要总结
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn more about the use of the study medicine, volixibat, for the treatment of pruritus (itching) associated with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC), and to assess the possible impact on the disease progression of PSC.

结局指标
主要结局
Mean change in the daily itch scores using the Adult Itch Reported Outcome (Adult ItchRO) questionnaire
时间窗: Baseline through to Week 28
The Adult ItchRO is an 11-point NRS measurement of itch severity ranging from 0=no itch to 10=worst possible itch.
次要结局
- The incidence of adverse events(Baseline through to Week 28)
- Proportion of participants with itch response using the Adult ItchRO(Baseline through to Week 28)
- Changes in serum bile acid levels(Baseline through to Week 28)
- Changes in alkaline phosphatase(Baseline through to Week 28)
- Changes in total bilirubin levels(Baseline through to Week 28)
- Change in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis-Specific Patient-Reported Outcome(Baseline through to Week 28)
- Change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) fatigue questionnaire(Baseline through to Week 28)
- Change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) sleep disturbance questionnaire(Baseline through to Week 28)
