Inclusion Criteria

  • Confirmed diagnosis of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) based on any two of the following three criteria:
  • Historical evidence of an elevated alkaline phosphatase (AP) > upper limit of normal (ULN) from any prior laboratory result
  • Liver biopsy consistent with PSC
  • Abnormal cholangiography consistent with PSC as measured by magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), or percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC)
  • Individuals must have the following specific additional laboratory parameters measured by the Central Laboratory at Screening:
  • AP ≥ 1.5 × ULN and < 8 × ULN
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 2 × ULN
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 5 × ULN
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2
  • Platelets ≥ 140 × 10^3/µL
  • International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.3 (in the absence of warfarin or other anticoagulant therapy)
  • Albumin ≥ 3.5 g/dL
  • Patients taking ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) will be allowed to enroll if meeting the following criteria:
  • Total daily dose of ≤ 20 mg/kg/day
  • A minimum of 6 months of stable treatment
  • Minimum of 12 weeks off treatment prior to Screening if UDCA is recently discontinued

Exclusion Criteria

  • Clinically significant acute or chronic liver disease of an etiology other than PSC
  • Patients with a diagnosis of overlapping autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and PSC
  • Secondary or immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) related sclerosing cholangitis
  • Small duct PSC
  • Presence of a cholangiocarcinoma on cholangiography or MRI at Screening as determined by the central radiologist and the principal investigator (PI) or medical monitor
  • Bile duct stent or percutaneous bile duct drain placement, or balloon dilatation procedure of a stricture within 12 weeks of Screening
  • History, evidence, or high suspicion of cholangiocarcinoma or other hepatobiliary malignancy based on imaging, screening laboratory values, and/or clinical symptoms
  • Presumptive or diagnosed acute cholangitis within 12 weeks of Screening and through Day 1
  • Evidence of compensated or decompensated cirrhosis based on histology, relevant medical complications, or laboratory parameters:
  • Historical liver biopsy demonstrating cirrhosis (eg, Ludwig Stage 4 or Ishak Stage 5)
  • Current or prior history of decompensated liver disease, including ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, variceal bleeding or other clinical conditions consistent with cirrhosis and/or portal hypertension,
  • Liver stiffness > 14.4 kPa by FibroScan, or
  • Combined low platelet count (< 140 × 10^3/µL ) with one of the following:
  • Serum albumin < 3.5 g/dL,
  • INR > 1.3 (not due to antithrombotic agent use), or
  • Total bilirubin > ULN
  • Prior or actively listed for liver transplantation
  • Prior exposure to seladelpar
  • Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
