Summary

The present phase 1b/2 randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-part study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic characteristics and preliminary efficacy of two dose levels of golexanolone compared with placebo among subjects with a history of non-cirrhotic or Child-Pugh class A cirrhotic Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) with clinically significant fatigue and cognitive symptoms on stable background standard of care (SoC) PBC medication. The objectives of this research study are to assess the safety and tolerability as well the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of golexanolone administered 40 mg BID for 5 days in the target population (part A) and to assess the safety and tolerability, the effects of golexanolone on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), including fatigue, day-time sleepiness and cognitive function as well as Investigator's overall impression of treatment effect of 28 days twice per day (BID) treatment with two dose levels of golexanolone versus placebo (part B).
