- Changes in alkaline phosphatase(Baseline to week 28)
- Changes in total bilirubin(Baseline to week 28)
- Proportion of participants with itch response using the Adult ItchRO(Baseline to week 28)
- Changes in serum bile acid levels(Baseline to week 28)
- Change in Primary Biliary Cholangitis Quality of Life Measure (PBC-40)(Baseline to week 28)
- Change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) fatigue questionnaire(Baseline to week 28)
- Change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) sleep disturbance questionnaire(Baseline to week 28)
