DUBLIN, Sept. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Market Spotlight: Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive, rare, and chronic cholestatic liver disorder that is characterized by thickening, inflammation, and fibrosis of the bile ducts. Both intra- and extra-hepatic bile ducts are affected. This generally leads to cholestasis, liver cirrhosis, and eventually liver failure.

Therapies in the pipeline for PSC focus on a wide variety of targets. The majority of pipeline drugs in development are administered via the oral route, with the remainder being tested in intravenous and subcutaneous formulations.
