Panelists discuss how elafibranor demonstrated significant efficacy in the ELATIVE trial, which strengthens confidence in its role as a long-term treatment option for patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) who inadequately respond to ursodeoxycholic acid.
Panelists discuss how some patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) have an inadequate response to ursodeoxycholic acid and require second-line treatments, with options including obeticholic acid, seladelpar, and elafibranor, which improve bile acid homeostasis and reduce inflammation.
Panelists discuss how the main treatment goals for patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) include improving liver biochemistry, preventing disease progression to cirrhosis, managing symptoms, and enhancing overall quality of life through regular monitoring and appropriate therapeutic interventions.
Panelists discuss how ursodeoxycholic acid is the first-line treatment for primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), with early initiation being crucial for optimal outcomes and prevention of disease progression.
Panelists discuss how primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) often presents asymptomatically but can be diagnosed through elevated alkaline phosphatase levels, positive antimitochondrial antibodies, and liver biopsy when necessary.
