This study aims to provide comprehensive insights into the therapeutic effects of combination treatment with ursodiol and seladelpar in PBC patients by assessing biochemical responses using biomarkers such as ALP and total bilirubin.
By focusing on invasive markers like aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI), enhanced liver fibrosis (ELF), 7-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one (C4), and fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19), the study will help understand the multifaceted impact of the treatment on liver fibrosis, extracellular matrix turnover, inflammation, and bile acid metabolism. This approach will ultimately guide better clinical management of PBC, allowing for tailored treatment strategies and improved patient outcomes.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of combined ursodiol and seladelpar treatment in PBC patients by monitoring changes in APRI, ELF score, and FGF19 levels, and validate results using traditional methods over 36 months.
