NCT ID NCT04594694

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tested whether combining two drugs, obeticholic acid and bezafibrate, could improve liver health in people with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) who did not respond well to or could not take the standard medicine. The trial enrolled 75 adults and measured changes in a key liver enzyme over 12 weeks. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
