First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding fenofibrate to the standard drug ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) helps people with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) who do not get enough benefit from UDCA alone. About 150 adults with PBC will receive either the combination or a placebo for up to 36 weeks. The goal is to see if the combination can normalize key liver blood tests, which may mean better disease control.
