Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Age 15-80
2. A diagnosis of PSC for at least 6 months based upon cholangiography (ERCP or MRCP)
demonstrating intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic biliary strictures, beading or
irregularity consistent with PSC.
3. ALP > 1.67 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening
4. Inflammatory bowel disease
5. Subject must either be on a stable dose of ursodeoxycholic acid for > 6 months prior
to screening or have been discontinued > 4 weeks prior to screening (enrollment of
patients who are on UDCA will be limited to 50% of all enrolled patients).
We are recruiting remotely throughout the United States so an individual anywhere in the US
with PSC and IBD can be enrolled.

encephalopathy.
3. Evidence of advanced liver disease including MELD score > 10, bilirubin > 3.0,
platelet count < 100,000; or INR > 1.4
4. Concomitant chronic liver disease including alcohol related liver disease, chronic
hepatitis B or C infection, haemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, alpha1-antitrypsin
deficiency, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, or primary biliary
cholangitis
5. Secondary causes of sclerosing cholangitis
6. Known intolerance to sulfasalazine (including but not limited to allergy to sulfa or
mesalamine) or folic acid
7. History of cholangiocarcinoma or colon cancer within 5 years
8. History of colectomy with > 1/3 bowel resected
9. Treatment with any investigational agents, within two months or 5 half-lives of the
