norUDCA phase3 trial on-going in Europe

Pretty exciting news and worth a separate post. Possibly the first fully regulatory body compliant phase3 clinical trial for PSC for decades.

I think this phase3 trial was started last year and will take 6 years to complete. Anyway, for our European forum members this might be interesting option to explore immediately (i.e. participate in the trial).
