Variable
Change in pruritusa from baseline to week 48 Total bilirubin levels at week 48 sBA levels at week 48
Improved: > 1 point reduction n = 46 Worse: ≤ 1 point reduction n = 30 Improved: < 6.5 mg/dL n = 52 Worse: ≥ 6.5 mg/dL n = 24 Improved: < 200 µmol/L n = 56 Worse: ≥ 200 µmol/L n = 18
6-y EFS (%) 88 57 90 43 85 49
 C-statistic 0.70 0.82 0.74
p b 0.0046 <0.0001 0.0010
6-y TFS (%) 93 57 94 42 90 49
 C-statistic 0.77 0.85 0.79
p b 0.0007 < 0.0001 0.0001

Note: “improved” or “worse” refers to the predicted outcomes for either EFS or TFS.

a

As assessed by ItchRO(Obs).

b

p-value from the log-rank test.

Abbreviations: EFS, event-free survival; ItchRO(Obs), Itch-Reported Outcome (Observer); sBA, serum bile acids; TFS, transplant-free survival.
