Background: Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a rare chronic liver disease. It affects the bile ducts of the liver. It can result in bile duct infections, cirrhosis, cancer, and end stage liver disease. Researchers want to learn more about this disease. Objective: To understand the biological causes of primary sclerosing cholangitis. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older who have primary sclerosing cholangitis. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, a... Read More

A Study to Assess Safety and Effectiveness of Elafibranor in Adult Participants With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis.
Recruiting
This study will evaluate the effects of elafibranor (the study drug) in participants with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC). PSC is a rare disease of the liver that leads to injury and destruction of bile ducts. Damage to bile ducts leads to buildup of bile in the liver, which then causes further damage, and leads to disease progression. This study will compare elafibranor to a placebo, a dummy treatment. The main objective of the trial will be to study the safety and side effects of the stud... Read More

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis in Children
Recruiting
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare liver disease that damages the liver's bile ducts. Bile ducts are tiny tubes that carry bile from the liver to the small intestine. Bile is a liquid produced by the liver that helps us absorb and use the nutrients in the food we eat. In people with PSC, the bile backs up into the liver and will damage it, causing scarring of the liver. The purposes of this study are to: Collect medical and other data to learn more about PSC, how it progresses, and... Read More

Oral Hymecromone to Treat Adolescents and Adults With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis.
Recruiting
Primary objective: To evaluate the efficacy of hymecromone plus standard of care compared with standard of care alone in the treatment of adolescents and adults with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Secondary objectives: To evaluate the change in Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) from baseline to 6 months post-treatment following treatment with hymecromone plus standard of care compared with standard of care. To evaluate changes in biomarkers of PSC disease during hymecromone treatment, namely:... Read More

CM-101 in PSC Patients -The SPRING Study
Recruiting
This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability and activity of the anti-human CCL24 monoclonal antibody CM-101 in adult subjects with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC). At least 68 subjects at approximately 50 sites will be randomized to receive either CM-101 at doses of 10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg or matching placebo.

Statin Therapy in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC): a Multi-omics Study
Recruiting
PSC is a liver disease that has no medical cure. Patients with PSC are at a greatly increased risk of cancer and infection. Additionally, many patients require a liver transplant. Progress towards a cure has been severely limited by an incomplete understanding of why patients develop PSC. The investigators aim to close this gap by conducting a pilot human study in patients with PSC, using statin therapy as a model

MRI Based Biomarkers in Pediatric Autoimmune Liver Disease
Recruiting
Autoimmune liver diseases (AILD), which include Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) and Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) are a common etiological factors for chronic liver disease among adolescents. In all these conditions, autoimmune lymphocyte responses are thought to orchestrate inflammatory injury against hepatocytes (primarily in AIH) or cholangiocytes (in PSC). In this proposal we aim to evaluate the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) modalities; MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and MR elastogr... Read More
