Adult cohort patients will receive blinded 250 mg CDCA TID or placebo during the double-blind periods based upon their treatment assignment.
Adult cohort patients will receive open-label 250 mg CDCA TID during the run-in and washout periods of the study or as rescue medication during the double-blind periods, if needed, based on clinical symptoms.
CDCA 250 mg TID will be provided as rescue medication during the double-blind periods, if needed, based on laboratory results.
Patients in the pediatric cohort will complete a weight-based dose titration to a tolerated dose and will maintain that tolerated dose for the remainder of the study. Pediatric cohort dosing of CDCA will not exceed an equivalent dose of 750 mg/day.
