The goals of this study are to collect information on patients with PBC to determine the natural course of the liver disease and to determine if certain lifestyle changes or changes in diet or other treatments that may be recommended by your doctors can affect “PBC.”. Currently, there are 2 specific drugs, Ocaliva™ and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), approved by the FDA (the Food and Drug Administration to treat PBC.
