Summary: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether obeticholic acid (OCA; INT-747) can lead to histological improvement in fibrosis with no worsening of NASH in adults with compensated cirrhosis due to NASH.
Eligibility: Key

2. Current or past history of CP score ≥7 points

3. Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score > 12

4. ALT ≥ 5 X ULN

5. Calculated creatinine clearance <60mL/min using Cockcroft-Gault method
