Official title
A Randomized, Placebo-controlled Pilot Study of Sulfasalazine for the Treatment of Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded placebo controlled trial to assess the benefit of sulfasalazine in the treatment of PSC. The specific objectives of this study are to determine if sulfasalazine treatment 1) results in reduced serum ALP and other biomarkers of liver injury in PSC; 2) improves PSC patient symptoms; and 3) is safe in patients with PSC. We are recruiting remotely throughout the United States so an individual anywhere in the US with PSC and IBD can be enrolled.
