  • An average AM ItchRO(Obs) score >= 1.5 during the 4 weeks leading to the baseline visit

  • Diagnosis of PFIC based on:

    a. Primary cohort: i. Participants with 2 documented mutant alleles in ABCB11 (PFIC2); participants without bile salt export pump (BSEP) function (biallelic truncating mutations in ABCB11) will not be enrolled into the primary cohort. b. Exploratory cohort: i. Participants with PFIC1/3/4 or PFIC2 with biallelic truncating mutationsiii.Infants from birth to <12 months of age with PFIC ii. Participants with PFIC after internal or external (eg, PEBD) biliary diversion surgery with unsatisfactory pruritus control or where biliary diversion was reversed.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Decompensated cirrhosis (international normalized ratio [INR] >1.5, albumin <30 gram per liter [g/L], history or presence of clinically significant ascites, variceal hemorrhage, and/or encephalopathy).
  • ALT >15*ULN at screening.
  • History or presence of other liver disease.
  • History or presence of any other disease or condition known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of drugs, including bile salt metabolism in the intestine (example [eg], inflammatory bowel disease), per investigator discretion.
