Summary

This study is testing whether a medicine called odevixibat can help children with biliary atresia who have had Kasai surgery. The main goal is to see if the drug can delay or prevent the need for a liver transplant and reduce harmful bile acids in the blood. About 254 children will receive either the real medicine or a placebo (inactive substance) in this late-stage trial.
