COMPANY SUMMARY:

Intercept is a biopharmaceutical company with a mission to build a healthier tomorrow for people living with rare and serious liver diseases.

In 2016, Ocaliva® was the first medication to be approved for PBC in over twenty years, and sales continue to grow.

Phase 2 analyses of this combination were presented at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) congress in June of 2023 and the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD)’s The Liver Meeting in November of 2023. Further, we are leveraging our decades of research and background in bile acids and FXR agonism to expand our pipeline in other liver diseases, such as severe alcohol-associated hepatitis (sAH).
