Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Obecholic acid is a modified bile acid and Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist. FXR is a key regulator of bile acid synthesis and transport. Bile acids are used by the body to help with digestion. Conventional therapy with obecholic acid will improve liver function of patients with PBC.
