Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Volixibat in Participants With ICPThrough to end of treatment, up to 21 weeks

To assess the safety and tolerability of volixibat in participants with ICP on the basis of the following endpoints:

Proportion of participants experiencing one or more of the following:

Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), adverse events of special interest (AESIs), events of clinical interest (ECIs), and adverse events (AEs) that lead to discontinuation of study drugs.

Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Change in the Weekly Average Worst Daily Itch Score as Measured by the Adult Itch Reported Outcome (ItchRO)Through to end of treatment, up to 21 weeks

Adult Itch Reported Outcome (ItchRO) is a 0 to 10 scale with 0 being "no itch" and 10 being "worst possible itch" where participants are responding to the following question "How would you rate the worst itch you experienced over the last 24hrs?"

Proportion of Participants Experiencing One or More of Adverse Perinatal OutcomesAt least one month after delivery.
