First-line treatment consists of ursodeoxycholic acid, but not all patients sufficiently respond to treatment. It is thus important to monitor patients for response to therapy to know when to initiate second-line treatment. The recent approval of PPAR agonists has greatly improved second-line treatment options, as these therapies not only elicited significantly better biochemical responses and normalized bilirubin levels but also improved extrahepatic symptoms including pruritus and fatigue, leading to better quality of life.
