Recruiting studies in California
- NCT06051617RecruitingPhase 3
Testing seladelpar for PBC with compensated cirrhosis
This study tests an experimental oral drug called seladelpar for people with PBC who also have cirrhosis that is well-controlled. The goal is to see if it helps improve liver health and manage symptoms without causing serious side effects.
Lancaster, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06447168Recruiting
Observing elafibranor in everyday care for PBC
This study follows people with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) who are already taking or starting elafibranor, to see how well it works and how safe it is in everyday life. No extra treatments or tests are required beyond what your doctor normally does.
Coronado, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05050136RecruitingPhase 2
Volixibat trial for itch from primary biliary cholangitis
This Phase 2 study tests whether volixibat can safely reduce itching caused by primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). If you have PBC-related itch that persists, this trial may help you find a new treatment option.
Coronado, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06016842RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term study of elafibranor for primary biliary cholangitis
This trial tests a drug called elafibranor for people with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a liver disease. It aims to see if the drug is safe and works well over a long time.
Coronado, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02137668RecruitingPhase 1
Testing vancomycin for certain pediatric bile duct conditions
This early-phase study tests whether the antibiotic vancomycin can help children with primary sclerosing cholangitis or biliary atresia, and related gut/bile duct problems. It may work by changing gut bacteria, but you would need to avoid certain medicines beforehand.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 2 weeks–40 years - NCT07631442Enrolling by invitation
Digital Health Monitoring for Primary Biliary Cholangitis
This study uses a smartphone app or digital platform to track how you're feeling day-to-day if you have primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a liver condition where your immune system damages bile ducts. Researchers want to see if this digital monitoring helps them better understand and manage PBC symptoms.
Redwood City, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04181138Recruiting
Study of childhood primary sclerosing cholangitis types
This study follows children and young adults with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) to understand the condition and how it shows up on scans or biopsy. It may help doctors better recognize PSC and choose the best next steps for care.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 2–25 - NCT05912387RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing statin treatment in primary sclerosing cholangitis
This early study looks at how a statin (cholesterol-lowering medicine) affects people with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) by measuring changes using multiple types of health data. It may help researchers understand which people benefit and how PSC biology changes with treatment.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT06699121RecruitingPhase 2
Testing LB-P8 for people with primary sclerosing cholangitis
This trial tests a new treatment called LB-P8 for people with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), a liver disease. It aims to see if LB-P8 is safe and can help slow the disease down. You may join if you meet certain health requirements.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–75

What taking part in a primary biliary cholangitis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there primary biliary cholangitis clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 9 recruiting primary biliary cholangitis studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a primary biliary cholangitis study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a primary biliary cholangitis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
