Study of TAK-781 in healthy people and PSC patients

Healthy VolunteersPrimary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Part of Digestive system clinical trials.

This study tests an investigational drug called TAK-781 in healthy volunteers and in people with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) who do not have cirrhosis. The study aims to see how the drug is processed by the body and whether it is safe.

  • If you do not have PSC: you must be a healthy volunteer aged 18 to 68 with a BMI under 30.
  • If you have PSC: your disease must not have led to cirrhosis, and you must have moderate to advanced liver scarring (fibrosis) as measured by a special blood test.
  • You cannot have had your gallbladder removed, have a history of bile duct cancer, or have certain other liver diseases.

Study causes of primary sclerosing cholangitis using body scans

This study looks at what drives primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and how it affects the body, using a team approach and medical tests like scans and blood work. It may help researchers understand PSC better and could improve future treatment decisions.

Testing bile-based “mini-liver” samples in PSC and non-PSC groups

This study collects bile and uses it to grow small lab models (organoids) from people with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and from people without PSC. Researchers want to better understand how PSC changes bile cells, which could improve future diagnosis or treatments.
