Actual (reported)The purpose of this research study is to determine the way (mechanisms) by which your defect in bile acid handling (metabolism) causes your liver disease or abnormality in absorption of vitamins and the effect of an investigational bile acid therapy (glycocholic acid) on your vitamin absorption and your liver disease. An investigational therapy is one that not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is being provided to you under an Investigational New Drug application from the FDA.

Actual (reported)Conjugated Cholic Acid (GCA) for the Treatment of Inborn Errors in Bile Acid Synthesis Involving Side-chain Conjugation.
This is the number of participants with bile acid amidation defects treated with oral glycocholic acid (15 milligrams/kilograms (mg/kg) of body weight/day (bw/day))
Up to 10 years
Evaluation of Levels of Atypical Bile Acid Metabolites After GCA Treatment Compared
Semi-quantitative descriptive evaluation of the levels of atypical bile acids in urine measured by mass spectrometry (FAB MS) based on a scale of 0 = absent or traces levels, 1 = low levels, 2 = moderate levels, 3 = high levels using the signal/noise ratio and intensity of ions. Atypical bile acids evaluated included m/z 407 (unconjugated cholic acid), m/z 471 (dihydroxy-choleanoic-sulfate) and m/z 583 (trihydroxy-choleanoic glucuronide).
Average of 6 months, average 12 months, and average of after year 1 to 10 years
Changes in Liver Function Tests of ALT From Baseline to Post-treatment
Comparison between baseline and post-treatment (average of available timepoints after year 1 through year 10)
Change in Liver Function Test: AST From Baseline to Post-treatment
Comparison between baseline and post-treatment (average of available timepoints after year 1 through year 10)
Change in Vitamin D, 25-OH Measure From Baseline to Post-treatment
Pre-treatment and post treatment (average of available timepoints after year 1 through year 10)
An open label, single arm, non-randomized, non-comparative, treatment study of Glycocholic Acid in the treatment of defects of bile acid metabolism.
10-15mg/kg body weight/day taken orally. Supplied as either liquid or 50mg capsules.
