New drug shows promise for slowing rare liver disease

NCT ID NCT03333928

Summary

This study tested whether a new oral drug called HTD1801 could help control primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), a rare disease that scars the bile ducts in the liver. For 18 weeks, 59 adult patients took either one of two doses of HTD1801 or a placebo pill. The main goal was to see if the drug could safely lower a key liver enzyme (ALP) in the blood, which is a sign of reduced liver damage.
