Brief Summary: This is a single center, open label, randomized, parallel design, single and multiple dose trial to evaluate the pharmacokinetics(PK), safety and tolerability of obeticholic acid (OCA).
Detailed Description: Twenty-four eligible subjects will be enrolled and randomized to 1 of 3 treatment groups (5 mg, 10 mg, or 25 mg) in a treatment ratio of 1:1:1 and no less than a ratio of 1:1 for female: male subjects. The study comprises single dose and multiple dose phases. The randomized dose administered in the single dose phase will be the subject's dose level for the multiple dose phase. A single dose of OCA (5 mg, 10 mg, or 25 mg) will be administered on Day 1. PK, safety, and tolerability will then be assessed for 3 days. On Day 4, the multiple dose phase will begin at the same dose level (5 mg, 10 mg, or 25 mg), with subjects receiving OCA once daily for 14 days. PK, safety, and tolerability will be assessed for 2 weeks at the clinical site following the last investigational product (IP) dose on Day 17. Subjects will be confined at the inpatient trial site from Day 0 until the morning of Day 30. They will return to the study site on Day 37 for follow up.
