暂无简介。

•1.Inclusion in the SILK PSC surveillance program
•2.MRCP or ERCP confirmed large-duct PSC
•3.ALP at screening >1.5x ULN (at =2 opportunities during =six months)
•4.PSC-associated symptoms at ALP =1.5x ULN
•5.Currently not taking UDCA for =3 months.
•Ongoing medication with UDCA is withdrawn for three months. These patients have an additional visit (V-1) three months before V1 (start of UDCA)
•6.Age = 18 years
•7.Written informed consent
•8.Women with childbearing potential may participate in the trial since UDCA is considered save in pregnancy according to EASL and Swedish guidelines, at least in the second and third trimester, and is the first-line treatment in women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). Pregnant women are advised to temporarily stop treatment with UDCA in the first trimester.
•9. If a woman with PSC who is a UDCA non-responder becomes pregnant, UDCA may be administered for the treatment of ICP according to EASL and Swedish guidelines. UDCA then is withdrawn after delivery.
•Are the trial subjects under 18? no
•Number of subjects for this age range:
•F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
•F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 450
•F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
•F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 50

•1. Chronic liver disease other than PSC (PBC, viral hepatitis, autoimmune liver disease, hemochromatosis, homozygous alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency and Wilson disease)
•2. Evidence of a secondary cause of sclerosing cholangitis
•3. Presence of complications or clinically significant hepatic decompensation of PSC:
•History of liver transplantation, current placement on a liver transplant list or current MELD score = 15
•Portal hypertension with complications, including: known gastric or large esophageal varices, history of variceal bleeds, poorly controlled or diuretic resistant ascites, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt [TIPS]), or hepatic encephalopathy
•Cirrhosis with complications, including history or presence of: spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, hepatocellular carcinoma
•Hepatorenal syndrome (type I or II)
•4. Presence of cholangiocarcinoma or other malignancy
•5. Alcohol abuse (as assessed by the investigator)
•6. Documented intolerance of UDCA, e.g., severe diarrhoea
•7. Suggested non-compliance with the protocol.
