Currently, there are 2 specific drugs, Ocaliva™ and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), approved by the FDA (the Food and Drug Administration to treat PBC.
This research study aims to observe any treatment for PBC in a large number of people in a “real life” setting. Researchers are interested in observing how these treatments, lifestyle changes, and counseling work in patients who are treated by their doctors in routine practice.
