Effective treatment of autoimmune hepatitis-primary biliary cholangitis overlap syndrome with obeticholic acid.

ABSTRACT

There is no consensus treatment for patients with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) - primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) overlap syndrome who are not responding to conventional therapy. We present a case of a 43-yr-old woman with AIH-PBC overlap syndrome treated with obeticholic acid (OCA). The patient showed a reduction in liver enzymes and no fibrosis progression during 15 months of follow up.
