Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Males or females aged 18 to 80 years (inclusive) at the time of screening, with confirmed Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) diagnosis based upon at least 2 of 3 criteria:
  • Anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA) titer \>1:40 on immunofluorescence or M2 positive by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or positive PBC-specific antinuclear antibodies (anti-GP210 and/or anti-SP100)
  • Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) \>1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for at least 6 months
  • Liver biopsy findings consistent with PBC
  • Use of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) for at least 6 months prior to screening (stable dose for at least 3 months immediately prior to screening)
  • Participants must have ALP \>1.5 x ULN but \<10 x ULN, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \<5 x ULN, and total bilirubin \<ULN, at all screening visits
  • AST, ALT, ALP, and total bilirubin must have 2 values at least 4 weeks apart that are within 20% of each other

Exclusion Criteria

  • Chronic liver disease of a non-PBC etiology. However, PBC participants accompanied with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) are eligible to be enrolled.
  • History or evidence of clinically significant hepatic decompensation
  • Medical conditions that may cause non-hepatic increases in ALP (e.g., Paget's disease)
  • Clinically significant infections within 6 weeks prior to treatment start, or infection with hepatitis C virus anytime in the past
  • Immunosuppressive, immunomodulating, or investigational agents within 30 days prior to treatment start
  • Treatment with obeticholic acid (OCA) within 30 days prior to Day 1
  • Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply

Arms & Interventions

APD334

APD334 active treatment for 24 weeks.

Intervention: APD334

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change in Serum Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) Concentration

Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24

Reduction in ALP concentration is a surrogate marker of slower disease progression.

Number of Participants With Adverse Events

Time Frame: Up to Week 26

Safety was assessed by monitoring adverse events and clinically relevant changes in vital signs and clinical laboratory results.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Change in Serum ALP Concentration(Baseline, Week 12)
  • Pharmacokinetic Parameters of Etrasimod, and Its Metabolites(Up to Week 24)
