| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | DB Phase: Composite Endpoint Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) And Total Bilirubin, 10 mg OCA Versus Placebo | DB Month 12 | Percentage of participants at Month 12 with ALP \< 1.67 x upper limit of normal (ULN) and total bilirubin ≤ ULN and ALP decrease of ≥ 15% from baseline. |
| Primary | LTSE Phase: Composite Endpoint ALP And Total Bilirubin | Baseline (DB Month 12), LTSE Months 24, 36, 48, and 60 | Percentage of participants at Months 24, 36, 48, and 60 with ALP \< 1.67x ULN and total bilirubin ≤ ULN and ALP decrease of ≥ 15% from baseline.
