Summary

This study is monitoring 50 children in Japan with Alagille syndrome (ALGS) or progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) who are taking the drug Livmarli (maralixibat). Researchers are using a national registry to track how many children develop liver problems and how quickly they appear.
