Company remains on track for initiation of Phase 3 testing of IBAT inhibitor A4250 in Progressive Familiar Intrahepatic Cholestasis (PFIC) in the near future. As a reminder, Albireo presented encouraging data from a Phase 2 trial in rare pediatric cholestatic liver diseases, including PFIC, in 2017. Mgmt guided for Phase 3 top-line results by YE19, w/ regulatory submissions shortly thereafter.
