Diagnosis of PBC as demonstrated by the presence of at least 2 of the following 3 diagnostic criteria:
* History of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) elevated above upper limit of normal (ULN) for at least 6 months
* Positive antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) titer or if AMA negative or in low titer (\<1:80) PBC specific antibodies (anti-GP210 and/or anti-SP100 and/or antibodies against the major M2 components (PDC-E2, 2-oxo-glutaric acid dehydrogenase complex))
* Previous liver biopsy findings consistent with PBC
At least 1 of the following markers of disease severity:
* ALP ≥ 1.67 × ULN
* Total bilirubin \> ULN but \< 1.5 × ULN
In addition, patients must meet the following biochemical criteria at enrollment:
Taking UDCA for at least 12 months, or for at least 6 months and has reached maximal response to UDCA with a plateau in alkaline phosphatase, with no changes in dose for ≥ 3 months prior to Day 1.
Patients must weigh at least 40 kg to participate in the study, and must have a body mass index (BMI) within the range of 18 - 40 kg/m2. BMI = Body weight (kg) / \[Height (m)\]2

History of conditions that may cause increases in ALP (e.g., Paget's disease).
Use of investigational drugs, or immunosuppressive drugs at the time of enrollment, or within 5 half-lives, or 30 days of randomization, whichever is longer; or longer if required by local regulations. Use of high dose oral steroids to treat co-morbid conditions (e.g., airways disease) will be allowed but must be properly documented as such in concomitant medications.
