NCT02943460
Study Centers 
Planned:
Approximately 40 centers in North America and Europe
Objectives:
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and 
tolerability of GS-9674 in subjects with primary sclerosing 
cholangitis (PSC).
The exploratory objectives of this study are listed in Section 2. 
Study Design:
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study 
evaluating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects 
with PSC without cirrhosis.
The study will consist of 2 phases, a Blinded Study Phase and an 
Open Label Extension (OLE) Phase. 
Blinded Study Phase: Includes a 4-week screening period, 12 weeks 
of blinded treatment, and a Blinded Study Phase follow-up visit, 4 
weeks after completion of blinded treatment. 
Subjects completing the Blinded Study Phase without permanently 
discontinuing study drug will be eligible to participate in the OLE 
Phase of the study.
OLE Phase:  Includes a 96-week OLE and an OLE Phase follow-up 
visit 4 weeks after completion of open label treatment.
Participation in the Blinded Study Phase can last up to 20 weeks and 
the OLE Phase can last up to 100 weeks, thus total study duration can 
be up 120 weeks.
Subjects meeting the study’s entry criteria will be randomly assigned 
in a 2:2:1 ratio to 1 of 3 treatment groups during the Blinded Study 
Phase as shown in the figure below:

ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) use. 
Number of Subjects 
Planned:
Approximately 50 subjects
Target Population:
Males and non-pregnant females between 18-70 years of age with 
PSC without cirrhosis
Duration of 
Treatment:
Total study duration of up to 120 weeks with up to 20 weeks for the 
Blinded Study Phase and up to 100 weeks for the OLE Phase.
Diagnosis and Main 
Eligibility Criteria:
Key inclusion and exclusion criteria are as follows:
Inclusion Criteria


time points during the study. Concomitant medication usage will also 
be assessed throughout the study.
An independent, external Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) that 
consists of two hepatologists and a PhD statistician will convene once 
20 subjects have been randomized and every 3 to 4 months thereafter 
to monitor the study for safety events in the Blinded Study Phase and 
every 6 months in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc 
basis if there are at least 3 similar Grade ≥ 3 serious, treatment related 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 
observed in the study. In the event of two similar treatment-related 
Grade 4 CTCAE events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, 
the DMC will review the data and advise the sponsor regarding 
stopping or continuing the study.
Efficacy:
Efficacy will be assessed through a number of exploratory endpoints. 
These exploratory endpoints are described in Section 8.1.3.
Pharmacokinetic and 
Pharmacodynamic:
Plasma concentrations of GS-9674, GS-716070 (metabolite of 
GS-9674), and other metabolites as appropriate, will be determined 
for PK analyses as applicable. Plasma or serum concentrations of 
FGF19, C4, and bile acids will be determined as applicable for PD 
analyses.

INTRODUCTION
1.1.
Background
Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic biliary disease of unknown etiology 
characterized by a fibrosing cholangitis that leads to inflammation, cholestasis and cirrhosis. The 
overall incidence of PSC is 0.77 per 100,000 person-years, with a median age at diagnosis of 
41 years and 2-to-1 male to female predominance {Molodecky 2011}. PSC is highly associated 
with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), typically ulcerative colitis (UC) with up to 90% of PSC 
patients having associated IBD and conversely, PSC develops in approximately 8% of all IBD 
patients {Saich 2008}. There are approximately 30,000-45,000 patients with PSC in the United 
States, making it an orphan disease. PSC affects less than 1.6 in 10,000 people in the European 
Union (EU), equivalent to a total of fewer than 82,000 people. 
PSC is a progressive disease that leads to cirrhosis of the liver. The clinical presentation of PSC 
is variable, and ranges from asymptomatic disease with mild elevations in alkaline phosphatase 
(ALP) and transaminases to more rapidly progressive, symptomatic disease in 15-30% of all 
patients. In addition to complications related to cirrhosis and portal hypertension, patients with 
PSC are prone to repeated episodes of bacterial cholangitis, pruritus, and are at high risk for 
cholangiocarcinoma. Specifically, the lifetime risk of cholangiocarcinoma in patients with PSC 
is 10-15%, a rate 160-fold that of the general population {Saich 2008}. Mortality from PSC is 
estimated to be 35% over 10 years from diagnosis {Kornfeld 1997}.
There are no approved therapies for PSC. Medical therapy with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) 
may improve liver biochemistry, but has no impact on symptoms or clinical outcomes {Triantos 
2011}. Immunosuppressive therapy has also been ineffective {Lindor 2015}. Episodes of 
ascending cholangitis are managed supportively with antibiotics in conjunction with therapeutic 
drainage if necessary. Liver transplantation is the only therapeutic option currently available to 
patients with PSC. Outcomes of transplantation are generally favorable (five-year survival 
~85%), but the disease recurs post-transplant in up to 25% of patients {Graziadei 1999}.
The etiology of PSC is unknown. As noted above, there is a strong association with IBD and 
genome-wide association studies (GWAS) indicate moderate genetic associations with PSC. The 
strongest associations are in the HLA complex on chromosome 6p21 with weaker associations at 
loci known to be associated with IBD, chromosome 3p21, 2q35 and the GPC5/GPC6 region on 
chromosome 13q31 {Karlsen 2010}. Several hypotheses as to the underlying cause of the 
disease have been proposed including aberrant homing of T cells to the bile ducts, autoimmunity, 
bile acid toxicity, and gut bacterial translocation leading to fibrosing cholangitis, and subsequent 
cholestasis and hepatotoxicity.

1.2.1.
General Information
GS-9674 is a potent agonist of Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) whose activity in intestinal 
epithelial cells results in the release of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19). FGF19 is an 
endocrine peptide which drives a signaling cascade to decrease hepatic lipogenesis, 
gluconeogenesis, triglyceride accumulation, and bile acid synthesis.

1.2.2.
Nonclinical Toxicology
The nonclinical toxicity profile of GS-9674 has been assessed in mice and cynomolgus monkeys 
administered GS-9674 orally for up to 26 and 39 weeks, respectively. GS-9674-related effects 
were primarily limited to non-adverse findings in the liver for both species that are likely related 
to the pharmacology of the compound. Mild increases in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and 
liver weights were observed in the 4 week and chronic (26 or 39 weeks) studies. In the 4-week 
studies and 26-week mouse study, these findings were associated with hepatocellular 
hypertrophy (both species) and minimal oval cell hyperplasia (monkeys). In the chronic monkey 
study, there were no correlating histological changes in the liver after 39 weeks of dosing. The 
above findings were observed at ≥100 mg/kg/day after 4 weeks of dosing and at all doses (≥ 20 
mg/kg/day) after 26 weeks of dosing in mice. In monkeys, the above findings were observed at 
doses of 300 mg/kg/day after both 4 and 39 weeks of dosing. The decreases in cholesterol 
(≥60 mg/kg/day) and triglycerides (≥100 mg/kg/day) as well as increased albumin 
(≥60 mg/kg/day) observed in mice after 4 and/or 26 weeks of dosing as well as the decrease in 
serum bile acids (300 mg/kg/day) in monkeys 39 weeks of dosing are also likely to be related to 
the pharmacology of GS-9674. Other minimal to mild, non-adverse findings observed after 26 or 
39 weeks of dosing in mice or monkeys, respectively, that were considered GS-9674-related 
included decreased red blood cell parameters (mouse; ≥20 mg/kg/day), increased platelets 
(mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day), shortened activated partial thromboplastin time (monkey; 300 
mg/kg/day), and increased phosphorus (mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day). All findings showed 
evidence of reversibility after a 4-week recovery period. The no-observed-adverse effect levels 
(NOAEL) in mice after 26 weeks of dosing and in monkeys after 39 weeks of dosing were 60 
and 300 mg/kg/day, respectively. 
Preliminary PK data from Cohort 5 (administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food) in the 
ongoing Phase 1 study of GS-9674 (GS-US-402-1851, included in IB) indicate adequate safety 
margins based on GS-9674 exposures at the nonclinical NOAEL doses in mouse and 
cynomolgus monkey (Table 1-1).

1.2.3.
Nonclinical Pharmacology
GS-9674 is a potent and selective agonist of FXR. This conclusion is supported by the following 
data: 1) modeling demonstrated an interaction of GS-9674 with the binding domain of FXR/
Retinoid X receptor (RXR) consistent with agonist activity, 2) GS-9674 induced an agonist 
response in a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) biochemical 
assay with an EC50 of 16 nM, which was comparable to that of other known FXR agonists, and 
3) GS-9674 did not activate the structurally similar bile acid receptor TGR5, did not activate 
other nuclear hormone receptors, and did not bind to a panel of other off-target receptors and 
enzymes.
The cellular potency of GS-9674 to activate FXR-mediated transcription was characterized using 
a firefly luciferase reporter gene engineered under the control of a FXR/RXR response element 
(PC-402-2012). GS-9674 caused complete FXR activation with an EC50 value of 43 nM, which 
was more potent than chenodeoxycholic acid (EC50 of 1770 nM).
Oral dose-ranging experiments in male cynomolgus monkeys demonstrated maximal increases in 
plasma FGF19 at a dose of 5 mg/kg (PC-402-2016). In addition, the oral administration of 
GS-9674 (30 mg/kg) to cynomolgus monkeys directly activated intestinal FXR, as measured by 
the expression of FXR-target genes in the ileum (15-fold increase in FGF19 mRNA, and a 2-fold 
increase in organic solute transporter (OSTα and OSTβ mRNA) (PC-402-2005).
The effects of GS-9674 on FGF19 levels were compared in cynomolgus monkeys following both 
oral and intravenous (IV) administration (PC-402-2016). Despite greater exposures following IV 
administration, only the oral administration of GS-9674 increased circulating FGF19 levels. 
These data suggest that intestinal FXR agonism by GS-9674 causes FGF19 production, whereas 
low systemic free drug concentrations limit effects following IV administration of GS-9674.
GS-9674 was evaluated in a choline-deficient high fat diet/NaNO2 rat model of liver fibrosis 
(PC-402-2015). This in vivo model utilized “2 hits” to mimic the metabolic and oxidative stress 
components of NASH disease in humans {Nakamoto 2009}, {Murakami 2013}. Treatment with

GS-9674 dose-dependently reduced both biochemical and histological measures of liver fibrosis 
in this model. 
Safety pharmacology studies have been conducted to examine the potential effects ofGS-9674 
on the cardiovascular (CV), respiratory, and central nervous system (CNS) systems. There were 
no GS-9674-related effects on the CNS or respiratory system in mice administered up to 
600 mg/kg. In addition, there was no significant human ether-a-go-go-related gene inhibition at 
concentrations up to 100 J..LM or GS-9674-related effects on the CV system in monkeys 
administered up to 300 mg/kg. 
Overall, the results from these pharmacology studies demonstrate that GS-9674 is a potent and 
selective agonist of intestinal FXR with the potential to benefit patients with PSC by inducing 
FGF19 production and reducing bile acid levels.

. Low, 
limiting 
The low systemic clearance (CL) of GS-9674 in rats, dogs and monkeys was considerably lower 
than the predicted hepatic clearance based on in vitro studies with hepatocytes. This discrepancy 
is most likely a result of protein-restricted clearance in vivo due to the very high plasma protein 
binding(> 99.6%) across species. The volume of distribution (V ss) ofGS-9674 was consistent 
with extracellular fluid (ranging from 0.16-0.21 Llkg) in rats, dogs, and monkeys. 
After oral dosing to albino and pigmented mice, e
4C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity was 
distributed to most of the tissues, with the highest maximum concentrations of radioactivity 
determined in organs of absorption and excretion. Generally similar distribution patterns and 
tissue concentrations of e4C]GS-9674-derived radioactivity were observed in albino and 
pigmented mice with no observed binding to melanin. In both strains, no quantifiable 
radioactivity was detected in brain, suggesting [14C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity did not cross 
the blood-brain barrier. Fecal elimination was a predominant route of elimination of [14C] 
GS-9674-derived radioactivity in both mice (85.7% and 5.45% recovered in feces and urine, 
respectively) and monkeys (78.2% and 69.7% recovered in feces in intact and bile duct 
cannulated animals) likely representing drug not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. 
Approximately 6% of the administered radioactivity was excreted in bile and urine in monkeys. 
Radiolabeled material was primarily excreted within the first 48 hours. 
GS-9674 undergoes oxidative metabolism in human hepatocytes. Comparison of metabolism in 
hepatocytes from mice, rats, dogs, monkeys, and humans did not identify any metabolites unique 
to humans, supporting the selection of mice and monkeys for the assessment of the toxicology of 
GS-9674. Of the recombinant human CYP isozymes tested, CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP2C19 
were shown to metabolize GS-9674. Potent inhibitors ofthese CYPs therefore may affect 
metabolism ofGS-9674. GS-9674 had little inhibitory effect on the activities ofCYP1A2,

CYP2B6, CYP2C19 or CYP2D6 (IC50 > 25 μM). For CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP3A, IC50
values of 2.4 to 13.6 μM were obtained but GS-9674 was not a mechanism-based inhibitor of 
these enzymes. GS-9674 showed moderate inhibition of human UGT1A1, sodium-taurocholate 
cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), and bile salt export pump (IC50 2.8-7.7 μM). GS-9674 
inhibited human OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1 with IC50 values of 0.68, 0.41, and 
0.21 μM, respectively. GS-9674 therefore has the potential to affect hepatic/intestinal uptake of 
OATP substrates or metabolism of CYP2C8, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 substrates when its 
concentrations are sufficiently high. However, low solubility, high protein binding (> 99.98%) 
and low systemic levels reduce the potential for GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions via 
inhibition of metabolic enzymes and transporters.
GS-9674 was a substrate for efflux transporters P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance 
protein, as well as the uptake transporters OATP1B1, 1B3, and 2B1, and NTCP. Inhibitors or 
genetic polymorphisms affecting the activity of these transporters may affect GS-9674 intestinal 
absorption and hepatic uptake. This was illustrated in an in vivo study in monkeys where 
pretreatment with Cyclosporin A, a known inhibitor of efflux transporters, increased the 
bioavailability of GS-9674 approximately 5-fold.
GS-9674 is highly selective for FXR over other nuclear hormone receptors in cell-based reporter 
assays, including those associated with potential for induction of human drug metabolizing 
enzymes and transporters (eg, pregnane X receptor, constitutive androstane receptor). Thus the 
liability of GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions through proteins regulated by these nuclear 
receptors is low.
1.2.5.
Clinical Trials of GS-9674
As of 23 Sept 2016, 4 Phase 1 clinical studies are ongoing (GS-US-402-1851, GS-US-402-3885, 
GS-US-402-2102, and GS-US-402-2101), and 4 Phase 2 studies in subjects with NAFLD, 
NASH, PBC, and PSC are ongoing or planned (GS-US-384-3914, GS-US-402-1852, 
GS-US-427-4024, and GS-US-428-4025, respectively). These Phase 1 and 2 studies are
described in the IB.
A brief summary of preliminary results, not included in the IB from ongoing study GS-US-402-
2102 is presented below.

subjects are planned to be enrolled.

Preliminary PK results from the following cohorts are presented below and in Table 1-2 and 
Table 1-3:

Cohort 1: Impact of OATP/MRP2/P-gp inhibition (single dose cyclosporine 600 mg: CsA) or 
OATP1B1/1B3 inhibition (single dose rifampin 600 mg: RIF) on single dose administration 
of GS-9674 100 mg with food (N=24).  Single doses of CsA or RIF significantly increased 
GS-9674 exposure (6.5- and 8.0-fold respectively), with more modest increases in 
GS-716070 exposure (3.3- and 4.9-fold respectively). These data indicate the GS-9674 is a 
sensitive substrate of hepatic OATP with intestinal P-gp playing a minimal to no role in 
GS-9674 absorption as seen by a smaller increase in GS-9674 by CsA compared to single 
dose RIF.  Based on these data, coadministration of GS-9674 with potent inhibitors of OATP 
is not recommended and moderate inhibitors of OATP should be used with caution whereas 
GS-9674 may be coadministered with P-gp inhibitors.

Cohort 2: Impact of CYP3A inhibition (multiple dose voriconazole 200 mg BID 4 days: 
VORI) and CYP2C8 inhibition (multiple dose gemfibrozil 600 mg BID 4 days: GFZ) on 
single dose administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food (N=18).  Coadministration of 
GS-9674 with VORI did not result in clinically meaningful changes in GS-9674 or 
GS-716070 exposures indicating that CYP3A plays a minimal role in the disposition of 
GS-9674 and GS-716070.  As such, GS-9674 may be coadministered with CYP3A 
inhibitors. Coadministration of GS-9674 with GFZ increased GS-9674 exposure 75% with 
reduction of GS-716070 exposure by 55% indicating that biotransformation of GS-9674 to 
GS-716070 is predominantly mediated by CYP2C8.  Based on the less than 2-fold increase 
in GS-9674 exposure, GS-9674 may be coadministered with inhibitors of CYP2C8.

Cohort 3: Impact of CYP3A/2C8/OATP/P-gp induction (multiple dose rifampin 600 mg QD 
7 days in the evening: RIF) on single dose AM administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food
(N=18).  Plasma exposure of GS-9674 and GS-716070 were substantially reduced after 
multiple dose administration of RIF indicating that GS-9674 and GS-716070 are sensitive to 
induction of OATP and CYP2C8.  As such coadministration of GS-9674 with potent or 
moderate inducers of OATP or CYP2C8 is not recommended.

Cohort 5: Impact of single dose administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food on CYP3A 
activity (single dose midazolam: MDZ) or OATP/CYP3A activity (single dose atorvastatin: 
ATV) (N=24).  GS-9674 did not alter MDZ exposure (90%CIs of the %GMR for AUC and 
Cmax were contained within the predetermined lack of effect bounds of 70-143%) indicating 
that GS-9674 is not an inhibitor of CYP3A. As such, GS-9674 may be coadministered with 
CYP3A substrates.  GS-9674 modestly increased ATV exposure (39%).  Similar increases in 
ATV exposure do not necessitate a priori dose modification as per the LIPITOR® United 
States product insert (USPI). As such, ATV may be coadministered with GS-9674.

OATP/BCRP (single dose rosuvastatin 10 mg: ROS) (N=24). GS-9674 did not alter DE (free 
or total dabigatran: DAB metabolite of DE), PRA, or ROS exposures (90%CIs of the %GMR 
for AUC and Cmax were contained within the predetermined lack of effect bounds of 
70-143%) indicating the GS-9674 is not an inhibitor of P-gp, OATP, or BCRP.  As such,
GS-9674 may be coadministered with P-gp, OATP, or BCRP substrates.

Rationale for this Study
PSC is a disorder of unknown etiology characterized by inflammation and fibrosis of the 
intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic bile ducts that result in the impairment of bile flow (cholestasis). 
Accumulation of excess bile acids causes hepatocellular cytotoxicity that leads to progressive 
liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. In pre-clinical and clinical studies, FXR agonism has been shown to 
reduce bile acid levels via FGF19-mediated suppression of cholesterol-7-alpha-hydroxylase 
(CYP7A1), the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis {Inagaki 2005}, {Pellicciari 2002}, 
{Mudaliar 2013}. In addition, in a murine model of fibrosis caused by administration of a 
methionine choline deficient diet and sodium nitrite injections, GS-9674 has demonstrated an 
anti-fibrotic effect. Thus, GS-9674 is postulated to be beneficial in subjects with PSC.  
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 30 mg and 100 mg GS-9674 
administered with food for 12 weeks in subjects with PSC. The doses were selected based on 
short-term safety, PD and PK results from Study GS-US-402-1851 in healthy subjects. 
Across the range of GS-9674 doses evaluated (10 to 300 mg QD), doses > 30 mg provide 
comparable intestinal FXR agonism assessed by increases in plasma FGF19 exposure. Food, by 
slowing oral absorption of GS-9674, results in prolonged elevation of plasma FGF19 
concentrations. Exposure-response relationships show that changes in C4 exposure are 
negatively correlated with changes in FGF19 exposure as well as GS-9674 exposure. Based on 


GS-9674

Amendment 3

these results, GS-9674 doses of 30 and 100 mg with food are selected for further study as they 
are expected to 1) provide enteral FXR agonism, reductions in bile acid pools, and liver 
biochemical improvements in subjects with PSC; and 2) inform regarding the impact of 
increasing systemic GS-9674 exposure on safety and efficacy.
In the Phase 1 study, GS-US-402-1851, GS-9674 was tested at doses up to 300 mg once daily for 
up to 14 days and was well-tolerated. Taken together, these data support the evaluation of 
GS-9674 30 and 100 mg in subjects with PSC.
Inclusion criteria for this study were developed in order to identify subjects with PSC who have 
persistently abnormal liver biochemistry but without cirrhosis. These subjects are at an increased 
risk of PSC-related complications including the need for liver transplantation and death. Subjects 
with clinical and histologic evidence of cirrhosis will be excluded from this study due to the 
uncertain PK and PD properties of GS-9674 to the setting of subjects with cirrhosis. Targeting 
interventions in the proposed study population will provide evidence for the safety and efficacy 
of GS-9674 in subjects at risk for progressive hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis.
1.4.
Risk/Benefit Assessment for the Study
This study will provide information on the safety and efficacy of GS-9674 for the treatment of 
patients with PSC. It should be noted that there are no currently approved therapies specifically 
for the treatment of PSC. The only therapeutic option available to PSC subjects with advanced 
liver disease is liver transplantation.
The potential benefits of GS-9674 for the treatment of PSC in the current study population 
include hypothesized improvements in hepatic injury due to reduced bile acid synthesis 
attributable to FXR agonism. Improvements in liver biochemistry, hepatic fibrogenesis, and 
potentially quality of life, would be expected to ensue based on these effects. Subjects with PSC 
randomized to the placebo control arm in the study may benefit from frequent medical 
monitoring and close assessment of their PSC and associated pathologies during the duration of 
placebo treatment. Moreover, all subjects, including those treated with placebo during the 
randomized phase, will have the opportunity to receive GS-9674 treatment during a long-term 
open-label extension phase.
In the Phase 1 study, 94 subjects have received GS-9674 in single or multiple doses (14 days) up 
to 300 mg. All treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild to moderate (Grade 1 or 
2), and overall, the rate of any adverse events (AEs) was similar between subjects treated with 
GS-9674 or placebo. The predominant toxicities were anemia, back pain, diarrhea, and headache. 
Grade 2 or 3 elevations in serum ALT were seen in five (5%) GS-9674 treated subjects and one 
(4%) placebo treated subject. Grade 2 or 3 ALT elevations that occurred on-treatment were 
observed in 2/23 (9%) BID treated subjects, but none of the 71 subjects who received once daily 
(QD) GS-9674 dosing. In these cases, elevations in serum bilirubin or prolongation of INR were 
not observed, serum ALT levels normalized upon treatment cessation, and no evidence of drug 
hypersensitivity syndrome (e.g., fever, rash, eosinophilia) was noted. In nonclinical studies, 
effects on the liver have been limited to non-adverse mild increases in alkaline phosphatase and 
liver weights and minimal hepatocellular hypertrophy that are likely a pharmacological response

to FXR agonism. There were no elevations in liver transaminases or changes in liver pathology 
(degeneration/necrosis) in the nonclinical studies to suggest direct cellular damage. In order to 
mitigate the potential risk of hepatotoxicity with GS-9674, QD dosing of GS-9674 has been 
chosen for this study. Moreover, close monitoring of liver biochemistry values will be performed 
and parameters for discontinuation of the study drugs due to liver test abnormalities have been 
defined (see Section 7.5, Toxicity Management: Observation for Drug-Induced Liver Injury) and 
will be closely followed.
Additional risks to study subjects include those attributable to study participation in general, 
including risks associated with frequent clinic visits and laboratory blood draws, and the 
associated pain and discomfort of phlebotomy. Strategies to mitigate these risks include close 
monitoring of lab values as well as AEs. Parameters for discontinuation of the study drugs due to 
AEs and non-hepatic laboratory abnormalities are also defined and will be closely followed.
Overall, the nonclinical and limited preliminary clinical data show a positive benefit/risk ratio in 
support of the study in subjects with PSC.

STUDY DESIGN
3.1.
Study Design
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety, 
tolerability, and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects with PSC without cirrhosis.
The study will consist of 2 phases, a Blinded Study Phase and an OLE Phase. 
Blinded Study Phase: Includes a 4-week screening period, 12-weeks of blinded treatment, and a 
Blinded Study Phase Follow up visit 4 weeks after completion of blinded treatment. 
Subjects completing the Blinded Study Phase without permanently discontinuing study drug will 
be eligible to participate in the OLE Phase of the study.
OLE Phase: Includes a 96-week OLE and an OLE Phase follow-up visit 4 weeks after 
completion of open label treatment.
The overall study design is presented graphically in Figure 3-1.

Treatment Plan and Regimen
Subjects meeting the study’s entry criteria will be randomly assigned in a 2:2:1 ratio to 1 of 3 
different treatment groups during the Blinded Study Phase as shown in Figure 3-1. 
Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence of UDCA use.
Study drug(s) will be administered for a total of 12 weeks from the Baseline/Day 1 visit during 
the Blinded Study Phase and 96 weeks during the OLE Phase. During the OLE Phase subjects 
will begin open-label treatment with GS-9674 (100 mg po daily). The dose of GS-9674 may be 
reduced from 100 mg to 30 mg (or subsequently increased back to 100 mg) at the PI’s discretion 
with the approval of the MM, as required.
Subjects will be unblinded to their Blinded Study Phase treatment assignment after the primary 
analysis has been completed, approximately 6 weeks after all subjects have completed the 
Blinded Study Phase.
Dosage and administration of the study drug(s) and reference product are described in 
Section 5.3.
3.3.
Biomarker Testing
3.3.1.
Biomarker Samples to Address the Study Objectives:
Biological specimens will be collected in this study as per the study procedures table
(Appendix 2) and will be used to evaluate the association of exploratory systemic biomarkers 
with study drug response, including efficacy and/or adverse events and to increase knowledge 
and understanding of the biology of PSC or related diseases such as Primary Biliary Cholangitis 
(PBC) and/or the validation of a companion diagnostic for PSC. Because biomarker science is a 
rapidly evolving area of investigation, and adverse events in particular are difficult to predict, it 
is not possible to specify prospectively all tests that will be done on the specimens provided.  The 
testing outlined is based upon the current state of scientific knowledge. It may be modified 
during or after the end of the study to remove tests no longer indicated and/or to add new tests 
based upon the growing state of art knowledge. Samples will be destroyed no later than 15 years 
after the end of the study.
Biomarker testing can include biomarkers that monitor auto-antibodies characteristic of PSC, and 
markers of bone metabolism. In addition biomarkers such as biochemicals, biological 
macromolecules, naturally occurring metabolites, and biomarkers of FXR activity (e.g. FGF19, 
C4 and bile acids) can also be determined.

Randomization, Blinding and Treatment Codes 
Final 
Amendment 3 
An Interactive Web Response System (IWRS) will be used for centralized randomization and 
treatment assignment. Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence ofUDCA use. 
Investigative site personnel will obtain the subject's identification number and study drug 
assignment from the IWRS. Subjects and all personnel directly involved in the conduct of the 
study will be blinded to treatment assignment. 
Study drug(s) will be dispensed by the study pharmacist, or designee, in a blinded fashion to the 
subjects. 
5.1.1. 
Procedures for Breaking Treatment Codes 
In the event of a medical emergency where breaking the blind is required to provide medical care 
to the subject, the investigator may obtain treatment assignment directly from the IWRS system 
for that subject (refer to the Study Reference Binder for IWRS unblinding instructions). Gilead 
recommends but does not require that the investigator contact the Gilead medical monitor before 
breaking the blind. Treatment assignment should remain blinded unless that knowledge is 
necessary to determine subject emergency medical care. The rationale for unblinding must be 
clearly explained in source documentation and on the case report form/ electronic case report 
form ( eCRF), along with the date on which the treatment assignment was obtained. The 
investigator is requested to contact the Gilead medical monitor promptly in case of any treatment 
unblinding. 
Blinding of study treatment is critical to the integrity of this clinical trial and therefore, if a 
subject's treatment assignment is disclosed to the investigator, the subject will have study 
treatment discontinued. All subjects will be followed until study completion unless consent to do 
so is specifically withdrawn by the subject. 
Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) may independently unblind cases for expedited 
reporting of suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs ).

with the approval of the MM, as required.
The study drug dose should be taken at approximately the same time each day with food.
A dose will be considered missed if the subject cannot take the dose within 12 hours of their 
regular dosing time. If a subject misses a dose, the subject should take their next dose at the 
regular dosing time.
5.4.
Prior and Concomitant Medications
Concomitant use of certain medications or herbal/natural supplements with study drug may result 
in PK and/or PD interactions resulting in increases or decreases in exposure of study drug(s) or 
these medications. 
Concomitant medications taken within 28 days of screening through the follow-up visit need to 
be recorded in the source documents and electronic Case Report Forms (eCRFs).
Subjects with co-morbid diseases requiring medication(s) must be taking the medication without 
a change in dose within 28 days of Baseline/Day 1.
GS-9674 increased atorvastatin exposure (39%) which does not necessitate a priori dose 
modification based on the LIPITOR USPI.  Subjects taking atorvastatin with GS-9674 should be 
monitored as per label recommendations.
5.5.
Prohibited Medications
The following medications are prohibited from 28 days prior to Baseline/Day 1 up to and 
including the day of the last dose of study drug:

STUDY PROCEDURES
The study procedures to be conducted for each subject randomized in the study are presented in 
tabular form in Appendix 2 and described in the text that follows. Additional information is 
provided in Study Reference Binder.
The investigator must document any deviation from protocol procedures and notify the sponsor 
or contract research organization (CRO).
6.1.
Subject Randomization and Treatment Assignment
It is the responsibility of the investigator to ensure that subjects are eligible to participate in the 
study prior to randomization and throughout the study. 
Documentation of the personally signed and dated informed consent of each subject, using the 
study-specific ICF, is required before initiating the screening process.
After written informed consent has been obtained and eligibility to participate established, 
investigative site personnel will obtain the subject’s identification number and study drug 
assignment from the interactive web response system (IWRS).
6.2.
Pretreatment Assessments-Screening Visit
Subjects will be screened within 4 weeks before randomization to determine eligibility for 
participation in the study. The screening period may be extended under special circumstances 
with the explicit approval of the Medical Monitor. 
Subjects who fail to meet eligibility criteria may be rescreened. Retesting of subject’s screening 
labs may be permitted if there are reasons to believe that the retest values will be within protocol 
specified parameters.  Reasons may include but will not be limited to sample processing errors 
during initial sampling and extenuating circumstances such as inter-current infections, lab 
mishandling and results abnormal from historic.
Screening labs may be repeated once within the screening period, prior to administration of study 
drug to rule out laboratory error, if any. This will be done at the discretion of the investigator.
The following will be performed and documented at Screening:

Obtain written informed consent before initiation of any screening procedures

Review and record whether the subject meets inclusion and exclusion criteria

Obtain screening number from IWRS

answers by himself/herself.
6.12.4.1.
Short Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey
The SF-36 Health Survey asks 36 questions to measure functional health and well-being from the 
subject’s point of view and consists of eight health domains (physical functioning, role-physical, 
bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health). These 
health domain scales contribute to the physical health and mental health summary measures. 
6.12.4.2.
Partial Mayo Score
The partial Mayo score is a survey for the assessment of IBD that considers stool frequency and 
rectal bleeding. Subjects with history of IBD will receive a diary with instructions to document 
stool frequency and rectal bleeding. Subjects should be instructed to update this diary on a daily 
basis and should bring this diary back to the site at each visit for partial Mayo Score calculation. 
Any subject who develops a ≥2 point increase in partial Mayo Score should be instructed to 
contact the site to report the change.
6.12.4.3.
PSC Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) Measure
The PSC PRO addresses the severity of common, everyday symptoms of PSC (e.g. pruritus, 
fatigue, right upper quadrant abdominal discomfort) and their functional impact (e.g. on physical 
function, activities of daily living, work productivity, etc.). 
6.12.4.4.
Primary Biliary Cirrhosis-40 (PBC-40) Questionnaire
The PBC-40 is a health-related QoL questionnaire that includes 40 questions regarding PBC-
related symptoms including itch, fatigue, cognition, and social and emotional assessments
symptoms that are also relevant to the PSC population.  
6.12.4.5.
Pruritus Visual Analog Scale (VAS) measure
The Pruritus VAS is a tool that uses a numeric scale for measuring the intensity of pruritus.
6.12.4.6.
5D-Itch Questionnaire
The 5D- Itch questionnaire is a validated survey for the assessment of the severity of pruritus in 
patients with chronic pruritus due to dermatological and non-dermatological disorders.

ADVERSE EVENTS AND TOXICITY MANAGEMENT
7.1.
Definitions of Adverse Events, Adverse Reactions, and Serious Adverse 
Events
7.1.1.
Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study subject 
administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to 
the medicinal product. AEs may also include pre- or post-treatment complications that occur as a 
result of protocol specified procedures, overdose, drug abuse/misuse reports, or occupational 
exposure. Preexisting events that increase in severity or change in nature during or as a 
consequence of participation in the clinical study will also be considered AEs.
An AE does not include the following:

Medical or surgical procedures such as surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, and transfusion.
The condition that led to the procedure may be an adverse event and must be reported

Pre-existing diseases, conditions, or laboratory abnormalities present or detected before the 
Screening visit that do not worsen

Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (eg., hospitalization for 
elective surgery, social and/or convenience admissions)

Overdose without clinical sequelae (see Section 7.6.1)

Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date 
before the consent form is signed and not related to a protocol-associated procedure is not an 
AE. It is considered to be pre-existing and should be documented on the medical history 
CRF.
7.1.2.
Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following:

Death

Life-threatening (Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.)

In-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 3
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 57
09 February 2017

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

A congenital anomaly/birth defect

A medically important event or reaction: such events may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the subject or may 
require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs. Medical and 
scientific judgment must be exercised to determine whether such an event is a reportable 
under expedited reporting rules. Examples of medically important events include intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; and development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse. For the avoidance of doubt, infections resulting from contaminated medicinal 
product will be considered a medically important event and subject to expedited reporting 
requirements.
7.1.3.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance are not recorded as AEs or SAEs. 
However, laboratory abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) that 
require medical or surgical intervention or lead to study drug interruption, modification, or 
discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, 
laboratory or other abnormal assessments (eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are 
associated with signs and/or symptoms must be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the 
definition of an AE or SAE as described in Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. If the laboratory 
abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the syndrome or diagnosis (eg, anemia), not the 
laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
For specific information on handling of clinical laboratory abnormalities in this study, please 
refer to (Section 7.5).
7.2.
Assessment of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing AEs and SAEs for 
causality and severity, and for final review and confirmation of accuracy of event information 
and assessments.
7.2.1.
Assessment of Causality for Study Drugs and Procedures
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing the relationship to 
GS-9674 therapy using clinical judgment and the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the GS-9674. For 
SAEs, an alternative causality must be provided (eg, pre-existing condition, underlying 
disease, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medication).


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 3
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 58
09 February 2017

Yes: There is reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the 
investigational medicinal product.
It should be emphasized that ineffective treatment should not be considered as causally related in 
the context of adverse event reporting. 
The relationship to study procedures (eg, invasive procedures such as venipuncture or biopsy) 
should be assessed using the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study procedure.

Yes: The adverse event occurred as a result of protocol procedures (eg., venipuncture)
7.2.2.
Assessment of Severity
The severity grading of AEs will be assessed as Grade 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 according to the 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03, which can be found 
at http://evs.nci.nih.gov/ftp1/CTCAE/CTCAE_4.03_2010-06-14_QuickReference_8.5x11.pdf
(Appendix 3).
For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the 
clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement 
with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.
The distinction between the seriousness and the severity of an adverse event should be noted. 
Severe is a measure of intensity; thus, a severe reaction is not necessarily a serious reaction. For 
example, a headache may be severe in intensity, but would not be classified as serious unless it 
met one of the criteria for serious events listed above.
7.3.
Investigator Requirements and Instructions for Reporting Adverse Events 
and Serious Adverse Events to Gilead
Requirements for collection prior to study drug initiation:
After informed consent, but prior to initiation of study medication, the following types of events 
should be reported on the case report form (eCRF): all SAEs and adverse events related to 
protocol-mandated procedures.
Adverse Events
Following initiation of study medication, collect all AEs, regardless of cause or relationship, 
until 30 days after last administration of GS-9674; AEs must be reported to the eCRF database as 
instructed.
All AEs should be followed up until resolution or until the adverse event is stable, if possible. 
Gilead Sciences may request that certain AEs be followed beyond the protocol defined follow up 
period.

Serious Adverse Events
All SAEs, regardless of cause or relationship, that occurs after the subject first consents to 
participate in the study (ie, signing the informed consent) and throughout the duration of the 
study, including the protocol-required post treatment follow-up period, must be reported to the 
eCRF database and Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) as instructed. This also 
includes any SAEs resulting from protocol-associated procedures performed after informed 
consent is signed.
Any SAEs and deaths that occur after the post treatment follow-up visit and within 30 days of 
the last dose of study drug, regardless of causality, should also be reported. 
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek SAEs after the protocol defined follow up period; 
however, if the investigator learns of any SAEs that occur after study participation has concluded 
and the event is deemed relevant to the use of IMP, he/she should promptly document and report 
the event to Gilead DSPH.

All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the eCRF database within the timelines outlined in the 
eCRF completion guideline. 
Electronic Serious Adverse Event (eSAE) Reporting Process

Site personnel record all SAE data in the eCRF database and from there transmit the SAE 
information to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event. 
Detailed instructions can be found in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If for any reason it is not possible to record the SAE information electronically, ie, the eCRF 
database is not functioning, record the SAE on the paper serious adverse event reporting 
form and submit within 24 hours to:
Gilead DSPH
Email:
Safety_FC@gilead.com
Fax:
+1 650-522-5477

As soon as it is possible to do so, any SAE reported via paper must be transcribed into the 
eCRF Database according to instructions in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If an SAE has been reported via a paper form because the eCRF database has been locked, no 
further action is necessary.

For fatal or life-threatening events, copies of hospital case reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents are also to be submitted by e-mail or fax when requested and applicable. 
Transmission of such documents should occur without personal subject identification, 
maintaining the traceability of a document to the subject identifiers.

Additional information may be requested to ensure the timely completion of accurate safety 
reports.

Any medications necessary for treatment of the SAE must be recorded onto the concomitant 
medication section of the subject’s eCRF and the event description section of the SAE form.
7.4.
Gilead Reporting Requirements
Depending on relevant local legislation or regulations, including the applicable US FDA Code of 
Federal Regulations, the EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) and relevant updates, and 
other country-specific legislation or regulations, Gilead may be required to expedite to 
worldwide regulatory agencies reports of SAEs, serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs), or 
suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs). In accordance with the EU Clinical 
Trials Directive (2001/20/EC), Gilead or a specified designee will notify worldwide regulatory 
agencies and the relevant IEC in concerned Member States of applicable SUSARs as outlined in 
current regulations.
Assessment of expectedness for SAEs will be determined by Gilead using reference safety 
information specified in the investigator’s brochure or relevant local label as applicable. 
All investigators will receive a safety letter notifying them of relevant SUSAR reports associated 
with any study drug. The investigator should notify the IRB or IEC of SUSAR reports as soon as 
is practical, where this is required by local regulatory agencies, and in accordance with the local 
institutional policy.
To minimize the possibility of exposing study subjects to unusual risk, the safety information 
from this study will also be reviewed periodically by an independent Data Monitoring 
Committee (DMC). The DMC may have access to partially blinded or unblinded data and will 
make recommendations regarding the study according to the DMC charter. See Section 8.12 for
additional details regarding the DMC.
7.5.
Toxicity Management 
7.5.1.
PSC Specific Study Stopping Rule:
Any subject without a history of IBD, who develops new onset IBD while participating in the 
study, must be discontinued from the study. Any subject with a history of IBD who experiences 
at least a 2-point increase in the partial Mayo score while in the study must be discontinued from 
the study. Also, any subject who experiences ≥ 2 episodes of ascending cholangitis in a 6-month 
period, clinical evidence of hepatic decompensation (e.g., ascites, variceal hemorrhage, or 
hepatic encephalopathy), and/or the occurrence of cholangiocarcinoma or hepatocellular 
carcinoma must also be discontinued from the study.
7.5.2.
Observation for Drug Induced Liver Injury (DILI):
Although subjects randomized in this study will have baseline liver disease, their hepatic 
function should not be significantly impaired. However, at baseline, some may have liver 
biochemistry levels above the upper limit of normal (ULN). Baseline values for liver tests (ALT,

AST, and total bilirubin) will be determined by averaging the values obtained at screening and 
Baseline/Day 1.  
For subjects with ALT and/or AST below ULN at study start, close observation for DILI (as 
described below) will be performed in subjects with any of the following criteria (all labs 
confirmed by repeat testing), unless an alternative cause for the combination of laboratory 
abnormalities is apparent in the opinion of the principal investigator:

ALT or AST > 3 x ULN 

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN

INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%)
For subjects with ALT and/or AST between 1 and 10 x ULN at study start, close observation for 
DILI (as described below) will be performed in subjects with any of the following criteria (all 
labs confirmed by repeat testing), unless an alternative cause for the combination of laboratory 
abnormalities is apparent in the opinion of the principal investigator:

ALT or AST > 2 x baseline at any time

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN  

INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%).  
Close observation includes:

Repeating liver biochemistries (ALT, AST, ALP, total bilirubin, INR) and obtaining CPK 
levels within 2 working calendar days upon receipt of the laboratory results.

Obtaining a more detailed history of symptoms and prior or concurrent disease

Obtaining a history of concomitant drug use (including nonprescription medications and 
herbal and dietary supplement preparations), alcohol use, recreational drug use, and special 
diets

Obtaining a history of exposure to environmental chemical agents


Ruling out other causes of liver disease as needed (obtain viral hepatitis panel, imaging for 
evaluation of biliary tract disease, etc. if required in the opinion of the primary investigator)

Continue to monitor liver biochemistries twice weekly. Frequency can decrease to once a 
week or less if abnormalities stabilize or study drug has been discontinued and subject is 
asymptomatic
During a period of close observation, study drug can be continued, if desired, at the discretion of 
the Gilead Medical Monitor and the principal investigator during the DILI evaluation. 
However, for all subjects, study drug should be withheld if any of the following criteria are met:

ALT or AST > 5 x baseline

ALT or AST >10 x ULN 

ALT or AST >3 x baseline with 1 or more of the following:
Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or 1.5 x baseline
INR > 1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)
Appearance of clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, 
consistent with drug-induced hepatotoxicity

ALT or AST > baseline with any 2 or more of the following:
Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or 1.5 x baseline
INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)
Appearance of clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, 
consistent with drug-induced hepatotoxicity
AND

No other cause for the combination of laboratory abnormalities is immediately apparent (e.g. 
prolonged INR with warfarin use). Important potential causes or contributors to abnormal 
AST/ALT or total bilirubin values include, but are not limited to:
— Obstructive gall bladder or bile duct disease
— Viral or alcoholic hepatitis (e.g. hepatitis A/B/C/D/E, Epstein-Barr virus, 
cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella)
— Autoimmune hepatitis
— Concomitant administration of other hepatotoxins, including excessive doses of 
acetaminophen, drugs that inhibit bilirubin glucuronidation (e.g. indinavir, atazanavir, 
irinotecan), or herbal or dietary supplements

— Hypoxic or ischemic hepatopathy or congestive hepatopathy in association with 
significant right-sided heart failure
— Wilson disease
— Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
— Progression of malignancy involving the liver (note that metastatic disease to the liver, by 
itself, should not be used as an explanation for significant AST/ALT elevations)
If study drugs are withheld, they may be reintroduced with approval from the Medical Monitor if 
another etiology for elevated liver tests is present. Study drug must be discontinued if close 
monitoring of a patient for DILI is not possible or if total bilirubin, ALT or AST elevation recurs 
following re-challenge with study drug.
Treatment-emergent toxicities will be noted by the Investigator and brought to the attention of 
the Medical Monitor. Whether or not considered treatment-related, all subjects experiencing AEs 
must be monitored periodically until symptoms subside, any abnormal laboratory values have 
resolved or returned to baseline levels or they are considered irreversible, or until there is a 
satisfactory explanation for the changes observed.

Other than in the case of the liver enzymes noted above, Grade 3 or 4 clinically significant 
laboratory AEs should be confirmed by repeat testing as soon as practical to do so, and 
preferably within 3 calendar days of receipt of the original test results.

For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of 
the clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in 
agreement with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.

Any questions regarding toxicity management should be directed to the Medical Monitor.

Special Situations Reports
7.6.1.
Definitions of Special Situations
Special situation reports include all reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, overdose, reports 
of AEs associated with product complaints, occupational exposure with an AE, pregnancy 
reports regardless of an associated AE, and AE in an infant following exposure from 
breastfeeding.  
Medication error is any unintentional error in the prescribing, dispensing, or administration of a 
medicinal product while in the control of the health care provider, subject, or consumer. 
Abuse is defined as persistent or sporadic intentional excessive use of a medicinal product by a 
subject.

09 February 2017
Misuse is defined as any intentional and inappropriate use of a medicinal product that is not in 
accordance with the protocol instructions or the local prescribing information.
An overdose is defined as an accidental or intentional administration of a quantity of a medicinal 
product given per administration or cumulatively which is above the maximum recommended 
dose as per protocol or in the product labeling (as it applies to the daily dose of the subject in 
question). In cases of a discrepancy in drug accountability, overdose will be established only 
when it is clear that the subject has taken the excess dose(s). Overdose cannot be established 
when the subject cannot account for the discrepancy except in cases in which the investigator has 
reason to suspect that the subject has taken the additional dose(s).
Product complaint is defined as complaints arising from potential deviations in the manufacture, 
packaging, or distribution of the medicinal product.  
Occupational exposure with an AE: exposure to a medicinal product as a result of one’s 
professional or non-professional occupation.
7.6.2.
Instructions for Reporting Special Situations
7.6.2.1.
Instructions for Reporting Pregnancies
The investigator should report pregnancies in female study subjects that are identified after 
initiation of study medication and throughout the study, including the post study drug follow-up 
period, to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy report form within 24 hours of becoming aware of 
the pregnancy.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of pregnancy reporting.
The pregnancy itself is not considered an AE nor is an induced elective abortion to terminate a 
pregnancy without medical reasons.
Any premature termination of pregnancy (eg, a spontaneous abortion, an induced therapeutic 
abortion due to complications or other medical reasons) must be reported within 24 hours as an 
SAE. The underlying medical reason for this procedure should be recorded as the AE term.
A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as described in 
Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Furthermore, any SAE occurring as an adverse pregnancy outcome post 
study must be reported to Gilead DSPH.
The subject should receive appropriate monitoring and care until the conclusion of the 
pregnancy. The outcome should be reported to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy outcome report 
form. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been completed, the outcome should 
be reported directly to Gilead DSPH. Gilead DSPH contact information is as follows: Email: 
Safety_FC@gilead.com and Fax: +1 (650) 522-5477.

Refer to Appendix 4 for Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing Potential, 
and Contraceptive Requirements.
7.6.2.2.
Reporting Other Special Situations
All other special situation reports must be reported on the special situations report form and 
forwarded to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator becoming aware of the situation. 
These reports must consist of situations that involve study drug and/or Gilead concomitant 
medications, but do not apply to non-Gilead concomitant medications. 
Special situations involving non-Gilead concomitant medications does not need to be reported on 
the special situations report form; however, for special situations that result in AEs due to a non-
Gilead concomitant medication, the AE should be reported on the AE form. 
Any inappropriate use of concomitant medications prohibited by this protocol should not be 
reported as “misuse,” but may be more appropriately documented as a protocol deviation.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of special situations reporting.
All clinical sequelae in relation to these special situation reports will be reported as AEs or SAEs 
at the same time using the AE eCRF and/or the SAE report form. Details of the symptoms and 
signs, clinical management, and outcome will be reported, when available.

Analysis by Study Phase 
Final 
Amendment 3 
Result of statistical analysis for the randomized phase will be presented by treatment groups. 
Safety data from the OLE Phase will be summarized for overall subjects who roll-over into the 
OLE Phase for safety review, supporting regulatory document update or publication purposes. 
8.3. 
Data Handling Conventions 
Missing data can have an impact on the interpretation of the trial data. In general, values for 
missing data will not be imputed. 
Where appropriate, safety data for subjects that did not complete the study will be included in 
summary statistics. For example, if a subject received study medication, the subject will be 
included in a summary of adverse events according to the treatment received; otherwise, if the 
subject is not dosed then they will be excluded from the summary. If safety laboratory results for 
a subject are missing for any reason at a time point, the subject will be excluded from the 
calculation of summary statistics for that time point. If the subject is missing a pre-dose value, 
then the subject will be excluded from the calculation of summary statistics for the pre-dose 
value and the change from pre-dose values. 
Values for missing safety laboratory data and vital signs will not be imputed; however, a missing 
baseline result will be replaced with a screening result, if available. If no pre-treatment 
laboratory value is available, the baseline value will be assumed to be normal (ie, no grade 
[Grade 0]) for the summary of graded laboratory abnormalities. 
8.4. 
Demographic Data and Baseline Characteristics 
Demographic and baseline measurements will be summarized using standard descriptive 
methods (n, mean, SD, median, Ql, Q3, minimum, and maximum) by treatment group and 
overall. Demographic summaries will include sex, race/ethnicity, and age. 
Baseline characteristics summary will include body weight, height, body mass index, and other 
disease characteristics.

Adverse Events
Clinical and laboratory adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for 
Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). System Organ Class (SOC), High-Level Group Term 
(HLGT), High-Level Term (HLT), Preferred Term (PT), and Lower-Level Term (LLT) will be 
attached to the clinical database. Adverse event severity will be graded using the CTCAE 
Version 4.03.
Events will be summarized on the basis of the date of onset for the event. Treatment-emergent 
adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as 1 or both of the following:

Any AEs with an onset date on or after the study drug start date and no later than 30 days 
after permanent discontinuation of study drug

Any AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study drug
Summaries (number and percentage of subjects) of TEAEs by SOC and PT will be provided.  
Treatment-emergent AEs will also be summarized by relationship to study drug and severity.  In 
addition, TEAEs leading to premature discontinuation of study drug and study will be 
summarized and listed.
All AEs collected during the course of the study will be presented in data listings with a field for 
treatment-emergent event (yes/no).
8.7.3.
Laboratory Evaluations
Selected laboratory data will be summarized (n, mean, SD, Median, Q1, Q3, minimum, and 
maximum) by treatment group and study visit along with the corresponding change from 
baseline values. 
Graded laboratory abnormalities will be defined using the grading scheme in the CTCAE 
Version 4.03 (Appendix 3). Grading of laboratory abnormalities for analysis purposes will be 
performed by the central laboratory.

months in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc basis if there are at least 3 similar 
Grade ≥ 3 serious, treatment-related Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 
(CTCAE) observed in the trial. In the event of two similar treatment-related Grade 4 CTCAE 
events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, the DMC will review the data and advise the 
sponsor regarding stopping or continuing the trial. The DMC will provide recommendation to 
Gilead whether the nature, frequency, and severity of adverse effects associated with study 
treatment warrant the early termination of the study in the best interests of the participants, 
whether the study should continue as planned, or the study should continue with modifications. 
The DMC may also provide recommendations as needed regarding study design.
The DMC’s specific activities will be defined by a mutually agreed charter, which will define the 
DMC’s membership, conduct and meeting schedule.
While the DMC will be asked to advise Gilead regarding future conduct of the study, including 
possible early study termination, Gilead retains final decision-making authority on all aspects of 
the study.

Declaration of Helsinki, International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines, or with 
the laws and regulations of the country in which the research is conducted, whichever affords the 
greater protection to the study subject. These standards are consistent with the European Union 
Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC and Good Clinical Practice Directive 2005/28/EC.
The investigator will ensure adherence to the basic principles of Good Clinical Practice, as 
outlined in 21 CFR 312, subpart D, “Responsibilities of Sponsors and Investigators,” 21 CFR, 
part 50, 1998, and 21 CFR, part 56, 1998.
The investigator and all applicable subinvestigators will comply with 21 CFR, Part 54, 1998, 
providing documentation of their financial interest or arrangements with Gilead, or proprietary 
interests in the investigational drug under study. This documentation must be provided prior to 
the investigator’s (and any subinvestigator’s) participation in the study. The investigator and 
subinvestigator agree to notify Gilead of any change in reportable interests during the study and 
for 1 year following completion of the study. Study completion is defined as the date when the 
last subject completes the protocol-defined activities.
9.1.2.
Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) 
Review and Approval
The investigator (or sponsor as appropriate according to local regulations) will submit this 
protocol, informed consent form, and any accompanying material to be provided to the subject 
(such as advertisements, subject information sheets, or descriptions of the study used to obtain 
informed consent) to an IRB/IEC/EC. The investigator will not begin any study subject activities 
until approval from the IRB/IEC/EC has been documented and provided as a letter to the 
investigator.
Before implementation, the investigator will submit to and receive documented approval from 
the IRB/IEC/EC any modifications made to the protocol or any accompanying material to be 
provided to the subject after initial IRB/IEC/EC approval, with the exception of those necessary 
to reduce immediate risk to study subjects.
9.1.3.
Informed Consent
The investigator is responsible for obtaining written informed consent from each individual 
participating in this study after adequate explanation of the aims, methods, objectives, and 
potential hazards of the study and before undertaking any study-related procedures. The

written informed consent. Each informed consent (or assent as applicable) will be appropriately 
signed and dated by the subject or the subject’s legally authorized representative and the person 
conducting the consent discussion, and also by an impartial witness if required by IRB/IEC/EC
local requirements.
9.1.4.
Confidentiality
The investigator must assure that subjects’ anonymity will be strictly maintained and that their 
identities are protected from unauthorized parties. Only subject initials, date of birth, another 
unique identifier (as allowed by local law) and an identification code will be recorded on any 
form or biological sample submitted to the Sponsor, IRB/IEC/EC, or laboratory. Laboratory 
specimens must be labeled in such a way as to protect subject identity while allowing the results 
to be recorded to the proper subject. NOTE: The investigator must keep a screening log showing 
codes, names, and addresses for all subjects screened and for all subjects randomized in the trial.
Subject data will be processed in accordance with all applicable regulations. 
The investigator agrees that all information received from Gilead, including but not limited to the 
investigator brochure, this protocol, eCRF, the study drug, and any other study information, 
remain the sole and exclusive property of Gilead during the conduct of the study and thereafter. 
This information is not to be disclosed to any third party (except employees or agents directly 
involved in the conduct of the study or as required by law) without prior written consent from 
Gilead. The investigator further agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent the 
disclosure by any employee or agent of the study site to any third party or otherwise into the 
public domain.
9.1.5.
Study Files and Retention of Records
The investigator must maintain adequate and accurate records to enable the conduct of the study 
to be fully documented and the study data to be subsequently verified. These documents should 
be classified into at least the following two categories: (1) investigator’s study file, and 
(2) subject clinical source documents.
The investigator’s study file will contain the protocol/amendments, CRF and query forms
IRB/IEC and governmental approval with correspondence, informed consent, drug records, staff 
curriculum vitae and authorization forms, and other appropriate documents and correspondence.
The required source data should include sequential notes containing at least the following 
information for each subject:

Subject identification (name, date of birth, gender);

Documentation that subject meets eligibility criteria, ie, history, physical examination, and 
confirmation of diagnosis (to support inclusion and exclusion criteria);

Documentation of the reason(s) a consented subject is not randomized;


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 3

Page 75
09 February 2017

Participation in study (including study number);

Study discussed and date of informed consent;

Dates of all visits;

Documentation that protocol specific procedures were performed;

Results of efficacy parameters, as required by the protocol;

Start and end date (including dose regimen) of study drug, including dates of dispensing and 
return;

Record of all adverse events and other safety parameters (start and end date, and including 
causality and severity);

Concomitant medication (including start and end date, dose if relevant; dose changes);

Date of study completion and reason for early discontinuation, if it occurs.
All clinical study documents must be retained by the investigator until at least 2 years or 
according to local laws, whichever is longer, after the last approval of a marketing application in 
an ICH region (ie, United States, Europe, or Japan) and until there are no pending or planned 
marketing applications in an ICH region; or, if no application is filed or if the application is not 
approved for such indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and regulatory 
authorities have been notified. Investigators may be required to retain documents longer if 
specified by regulatory requirements, by local regulations, or by an agreement with Gilead. The 
investigator must notify Gilead before destroying any clinical study records.
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, Gilead must be notified in advance.
If the investigator cannot provide for this archiving requirement at the study site for any or all of 
the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and Gilead to store 
these records securely away from the site so that they can be returned sealed to the investigator 
in case of an inspection. When source documents are required for the continued care of the 
subject, appropriate copies should be made for storage away from the site.
9.1.6.
Case Report Forms
For each subject consented, an electronic case report form (eCRF) will be completed by an 
authorized study staff member whose training for this function is documented according to study 
procedures. eCRF should be completed on the day of the subject visit to enable the sponsor to 
perform central monitoring of safety data.  The Eligibility Criteria eCRF should be completed 
only after all data related to eligibility have been received.  Subsequent to data entry, a study 
monitor will perform source data verification within the EDC system. Original entries as well as 


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 3

any changes to data fields will be stored in the audit trail of the system.  Prior to database lock 
(or any interim time points as described in the clinical data management plan), the investigator 
will use his/her log in credentials to confirm that the forms have been reviewed, and that the 
entries accurately reflect the information in the source documents. The eCRF capture the data 
required per the protocol schedule of events and procedures. System-generated or manual 
queries will be issued to the investigative site staff as data discrepancies are identified by the 
monitor or internal Gilead staff, who routinely review the data for completeness, correctness, and 
consistency. The site coordinator is responsible for responding to the queries in a timely manner, 
within the system, either by confirming the data as correct or updating the original entry, and 
providing the reason for the update (e.g. data entry error). At the conclusion of the trial, Gilead 
will provide the site with a read-only archive copy of the data entered by that site. This archive 
must be stored in accordance with the records retention requirements outlined in Section 9.1.5.
9.1.7.
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability and Return
Where possible, study drug should be destroyed at the site. If the site does not have acceptable 
procedures in place for drug destruction, arrangements will be made between the site and 
Gilead Sciences (or Gilead Sciences’ representative) for return of unused study drug supplies. 
The study monitor will provide instructions for return.
The study monitor will evaluate each study center’s study drug disposal procedures and provide 
appropriate instruction for destruction of unused study drug supplies. If the site has an 
appropriate standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by Gilead 
QA, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused study drug supplies in 
accordance with that site’s approved SOP. A copy of the site’s approved SOP will be obtained 
for central files. 
If study drug is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all study 
drug destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the 
method of destruction, and the person who disposed of the study drug. Upon study completion, 
copies of the study drug accountability records must be filed at the site. Another copy will be 
returned to Gilead. Refer to the pharmacy binder for study drug disposal/return instructions.
The study monitor will review study drug supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.
9.1.8.
Inspections
The investigator will make available all source documents and other records for this trial to 
Gilead’s appointed study monitors to the IRB/IEC/EC, or to regulatory authority or health 
authority inspectors.
9.1.9.
Protocol Compliance
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol.

other scholarly media only after the following conditions have been met: the results of the study 
in their entirety have been publicly disclosed by or with the consent of Gilead in an abstract, 
manuscript, or presentation form or the study has been completed at all study sites for at least 2 
years.
The investigator will submit to Gilead any proposed publication or presentation along with the 
respective scientific journal or presentation forum at least 30 days before submission of the 
publication or presentation. 
No such communication, presentation, or publication will include Gilead’s confidential 
information (see Section 9.1.4).
The investigator will comply with Gilead’s request to delete references to its confidential 
information (other than the study results) in any paper or presentation and agrees to withhold 
publication or presentation for an additional 60 days in order to obtain patent protection if 
deemed necessary.

Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing 
Potential, and Contraceptive Requirements
1. Definitions
a. Definition of Childbearing Potential
For the purposes of this study, a female born subject is considered of childbearing potential 
following the initiation of puberty (Tanner stage 2) until becoming post-menopausal, unless 
permanently sterile or with medically documented ovarian failure.  
Women are considered to be in a postmenopausal state when they are > 54 years of age with 
cessation of previously occurring menses for > 12 months without an alternative cause.  In 
addition, women of any age with amenorrhea of > 12 months may also be considered 
postmenopausal if their follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level is in the postmenopausal range 
and they are not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy.
Permanent sterilization includes hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral 
salpingectomy in a female subject of any age.
b. Definition of Male Fertility
For the purposes of this study, a male born subject is considered of fertile after the initiation of 
puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy or medical documentation.
2. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects
a. Study Drug Effects on Pregnancy and Hormonal Contraception
GS-9674 has not yet been studied in pregnant women. In the initial dose range-finding studies in 
pregnant mice and rabbits, there were no effects on embryofetal development other than a 
decrease in fetal body weights in pregnant rabbits administered 1000 mg/kg/day. The decrease in 
fetal body weights are likely secondary to maternal toxicity rather than a direct effect of 
GS-9674. The NOEL for embryo/fetal development is 300 mg/kg/day in mice and 
200 mg/kg/day in rabbits. These doses were associated with exposures that are > 50-fold higher 
than the anticipated human exposure at the maximum proposed human dose of 100 mg once 
daily. Drug-drug interaction (DDI) data do not suggest a potential for interaction with hormones 
used for contraception.
Please refer to the latest version of the Investigator’s Brochure for additional information.

09 February 2017
b. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects of Childbearing Potential
The inclusion of female subjects of childbearing potential requires the use of highly effective 
contraceptive measures. They must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a 
negative pregnancy test on the Baseline/Day 1 visit prior to randomization. At minimum, a 
pregnancy test will be performed at all study visits except Blinded Study Phase Week 2 and OLE 
Weeks 1 and 2 and at 30 days after the last dose of the study drug.  Female subjects must agree 
to one of the following from Screening until 30 days following the last dose of the study drug 
GS-9674.

Complete abstinence from intercourse of reproductive potential.  Abstinence is an acceptable 
method of contraception only when it is in line with the subject’s preferred and usual 
lifestyle. 
Or

Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed below. 
Intrauterine device (IUD) with a failure rate of <1% per year
Tubal sterilization
Essure micro-insert system (provided confirmation of success 3 months after procedure)
Vasectomy in the male partner (provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner and 
had confirmation of surgical success 3 months after procedure)
Or

Consistent and correct use of one hormonal method and one barrier method.
Barrier methods
■
Diaphragm with spermicide
■
Cervical cap with spermicide
■
Male condom (with or without spermicide)
Hormonal methods
■
Oral contraceptives (either combined or progesterone only)
■
Injectable progesterone
■
Implants of levonorgestrel
■
Transdermal contraceptive patch
■
Contraceptive vaginal ring

Female subjects must also refrain from egg donation and in vitro fertilization during treatment 
and until at least 30 days after the last dose of the study drug GS-9674.
3. Contraception Requirements for Male Subjects
It is theoretically possible that a relevant systemic concentration may be achieved in a female 
partner from exposure of the male subject’s seminal fluid.  Therefore, male subjects with female 
partners of childbearing potential must use condoms (plus spermicide) during treatment and until 
90 days after last dose of GS-9674. Additional contraception recommendations should also be 
considered if the female partner is not pregnant.
Male subjects must agree to avoid sperm donation during treatment and until at least 90 days 
after the last dose of study drug GS-9674.
4. Unacceptable Birth Control Methods
Birth control methods that are unacceptable include periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, 
ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), spermicides 
only, and lactational amenorrhea method (LAM).  Female condom and male condom should not 
be used together.
5. Procedures to be Followed in the Event of Pregnancy
Subjects will be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time during 
the study, or if they become pregnant within 30 days (90 days of partner of male subject) of last 
study drug dose. Subjects who become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant during the 
study must report the information to the investigator and discontinue study drug immediately. 
Subjects whose partner has become pregnant or suspects she is pregnant during the study must 
report the information to the investigator. Instructions for reporting pregnancy, partner 
pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome are outlined in Section 7.6.2.1.

Study Centers 
Planned:
Approximately 40 centers in North America and Europe
Objectives:
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and 
tolerability of GS-9674 in subjects with primary sclerosing 
cholangitis (PSC).
The exploratory objectives of this study are listed in Section 2. 
Study Design:
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study 
evaluating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects 
with PSC without cirrhosis.
The study will consist of 2 phases, a Blinded Study Phase and an 
Open Label Extension (OLE) Phase. 
Blinded Study Phase: Includes a 4-week screening period, 12 weeks 
of blinded treatment, and a Blinded Study Phase follow-up visit, 4 
weeks after completion of blinded treatment. 
Subjects completing the Blinded Study Phase without permanently 
discontinuing study drug will be eligible to participate in the OLE 
Phase of the study.
OLE Phase:  Includes a 96-week OLE and an OLE Phase follow-up 
visit 4 weeks after completion of open label treatment.
Participation in the Blinded Study Phase can last up to 20 weeks and 
the OLE Phase can last up to 100 weeks, thus total study duration can 
be up 120 weeks.
Subjects meeting the study’s entry criteria will be randomly assigned 
in a 2:2:1 ratio to 1 of 3 treatment groups during the Blinded Study 
Phase as shown in the figure below:

Criteria for 
Evaluation:
Safety:
The primary endpoint is the safety of GS-9674 in subjects with PSC
without cirrhosis.
Safety will be assessed during the study through the reporting of AEs, 
and by clinical laboratory tests and vital sign assessments at various 
time points during the study. Concomitant medication usage will also 
be assessed throughout the study.
An independent, external Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) that 
consists of two hepatologists and a PhD statistician will convene once 
20 subjects have been randomized and every 3 to 4 months thereafter 
to monitor the study for safety events in the Blinded Study Phase and 
every 6 months in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc 
basis if there are at least 3 similar Grade ≥ 3 serious, treatment related 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 
observed in the study. In the event of two similar treatment-related 
Grade 4 CTCAE events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, 
the DMC will review the data and advise the sponsor regarding 
stopping or continuing the study.
Efficacy:
Efficacy will be assessed through a number of exploratory endpoints. 
These exploratory endpoints are described in Section 8.1.3.
Pharmacokinetic and 
Pharmacodynamic:
Plasma concentrations of GS-9674, GS-716070 (metabolite of 
GS-9674), and other metabolites as appropriate, will be determined 
for PK analyses as applicable. Plasma or serum concentrations of 
FGF19, C4, and bile acids will be determined as applicable for PD 
analyses.

INTRODUCTION
1.1.
Background
Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic biliary disease of unknown etiology 
characterized by a fibrosing cholangitis that leads to inflammation, cholestasis and cirrhosis. The 
overall incidence of PSC is 0.77 per 100,000 person-years, with a median age at diagnosis of 
41 years and 2-to-1 male to female predominance {Molodecky 2011}. PSC is highly associated 
with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), typically ulcerative colitis (UC) with up to 90% of PSC 
patients having associated IBD and conversely, PSC develops in approximately 8% of all IBD 
patients {Saich 2008}. There are approximately 30,000-45,000 patients with PSC in the United 
States, making it an orphan disease. PSC affects less than 1.6 in 10,000 people in the European 
Union (EU), equivalent to a total of fewer than 82,000 people. 
PSC is a progressive disease that leads to cirrhosis of the liver. The clinical presentation of PSC 
is variable, and ranges from asymptomatic disease with mild elevations in alkaline phosphatase 
(ALP) and transaminases to more rapidly progressive, symptomatic disease in 15-30% of all 
patients. In addition to complications related to cirrhosis and portal hypertension, patients with 
PSC are prone to repeated episodes of bacterial cholangitis, pruritus, and are at high risk for 
cholangiocarcinoma. Specifically, the lifetime risk of cholangiocarcinoma in patients with PSC 
is 10-15%, a rate 160-fold that of the general population {Saich 2008}. Mortality from PSC is 
estimated to be 35% over 10 years from diagnosis {Kornfeld 1997}.
There are no approved therapies for PSC. Medical therapy with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) 
may improve liver biochemistry, but has no impact on symptoms or clinical outcomes {Triantos 
2011}. Immunosuppressive therapy has also been ineffective {Lindor 2015}. Episodes of 
ascending cholangitis are managed supportively with antibiotics in conjunction with therapeutic 
drainage if necessary. Liver transplantation is the only therapeutic option currently available to 
patients with PSC. Outcomes of transplantation are generally favorable (five-year survival 
~85%), but the disease recurs post-transplant in up to 25% of patients {Graziadei 1999}.
The etiology of PSC is unknown. As noted above, there is a strong association with IBD and 
genome-wide association studies (GWAS) indicate moderate genetic associations with PSC. The 
strongest associations are in the HLA complex on chromosome 6p21 with weaker associations at 
loci known to be associated with IBD, chromosome 3p21, 2q35 and the GPC5/GPC6 region on 
chromosome 13q31 {Karlsen 2010}. Several hypotheses as to the underlying cause of the 
disease have been proposed including aberrant homing of T cells to the bile ducts, autoimmunity, 
bile acid toxicity, and gut bacterial translocation leading to fibrosing cholangitis, and subsequent 
cholestasis and hepatotoxicity.

GS-9674
1.2.1.
General Information
GS-9674 is a potent agonist of Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) whose activity in intestinal 
epithelial cells results in the release of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19). FGF19 is an 
endocrine peptide which drives a signaling cascade to decrease hepatic lipogenesis, 
gluconeogenesis, triglyceride accumulation, and bile acid synthesis.
Please refer to the Investigator’s Brochure (IB) for additional information on GS-9674 including:

In Vitro FXR agonism

Nonclinical Pharmacokinetics and In Vitro Metabolism

Nonclinical Pharmacology and Toxicology
1.2.2.
Nonclinical Toxicology
The nonclinical toxicity profile of GS-9674 has been assessed in mice and cynomolgus monkeys 
administered GS-9674 orally for up to 26 and 39 weeks, respectively. GS-9674-related effects 
were primarily limited to non-adverse findings in the liver for both species that are likely related 
to the pharmacology of the compound. Mild increases in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and 
liver weights were observed in the 4 week and chronic (26 or 39 weeks) studies. In the 4-week 
studies and 26-week mouse study, these findings were associated with hepatocellular 
hypertrophy (both species) and minimal oval cell hyperplasia (monkeys). In the chronic monkey 
study, there were no correlating histological changes in the liver after 39 weeks of dosing. The 
above findings were observed at ≥100 mg/kg/day after 4 weeks of dosing and at all doses (≥ 20 
mg/kg/day) after 26 weeks of dosing in mice. In monkeys, the above findings were observed at 
doses of 300 mg/kg/day after both 4 and 39 weeks of dosing. The decreases in cholesterol 
(≥60 mg/kg/day) and triglycerides (≥100 mg/kg/day) as well as increased albumin 
(≥60 mg/kg/day) observed in mice after 4 and/or 26 weeks of dosing as well as the decrease in 
serum bile acids (300 mg/kg/day) in monkeys 39 weeks of dosing are also likely to be related to 
the pharmacology of GS-9674. Other minimal to mild, non-adverse findings observed after 26 or 
39 weeks of dosing in mice or monkeys, respectively, that were considered GS-9674-related 
included decreased red blood cell parameters (mouse; ≥20 mg/kg/day), increased platelets 
(mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day), shortened activated partial thromboplastin time (monkey; 300 
mg/kg/day), and increased phosphorus (mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day). All findings showed 
evidence of reversibility after a 4-week recovery period. The no-observed-adverse effect levels 
(NOAEL) in mice after 26 weeks of dosing and in monkeys after 39 weeks of dosing were 60 
and 300 mg/kg/day, respectively. 
Preliminary PK data from Cohort 5 (administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food) in the 
ongoing Phase 1 study of GS-9674 (GS-US-402-1851, included in IB) indicate adequate safety 
margins based on GS-9674 exposures at the nonclinical NOAEL doses in mouse and 
cynomolgus monkey (Table 1-1).

1.2.3.
Nonclinical Pharmacology
GS-9674 is a potent and selective agonist of FXR. This conclusion is supported by the following 
data: 1) modeling demonstrated an interaction of GS-9674 with the binding domain of FXR/
Retinoid X receptor (RXR) consistent with agonist activity, 2) GS-9674 induced an agonist 
response in a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) biochemical 
assay with an EC50 of 16 nM, which was comparable to that of other known FXR agonists, and 
3) GS-9674 did not activate the structurally similar bile acid receptor TGR5, did not activate 
other nuclear hormone receptors, and did not bind to a panel of other off-target receptors and 
enzymes.
The cellular potency of GS-9674 to activate FXR-mediated transcription was characterized using 
a firefly luciferase reporter gene engineered under the control of a FXR/RXR response element 
(PC-402-2012). GS-9674 caused complete FXR activation with an EC50 value of 43 nM, which 
was more potent than chenodeoxycholic acid (EC50 of 1770 nM).
Oral dose-ranging experiments in male cynomolgus monkeys demonstrated maximal increases in 
plasma FGF19 at a dose of 5 mg/kg (PC-402-2016). In addition, the oral administration of 
GS-9674 (30 mg/kg) to cynomolgus monkeys directly activated intestinal FXR, as measured by 
the expression of FXR-target genes in the ileum (15-fold increase in FGF19 mRNA, and a 2-fold 
increase in organic solute transporter (OSTα and OSTβ mRNA) (PC-402-2005).
The effects of GS-9674 on FGF19 levels were compared in cynomolgus monkeys following both 
oral and intravenous (IV) administration (PC-402-2016). Despite greater exposures following IV 
administration, only the oral administration of GS-9674 increased circulating FGF19 levels. 
These data suggest that intestinal FXR agonism by GS-9674 causes FGF19 production, whereas 
low systemic free drug concentrations limit effects following IV administration of GS-9674.
GS-9674 was evaluated in a choline-deficient high fat diet/NaNO2 rat model of liver fibrosis 
(PC-402-2015). This in vivo model utilized “2 hits” to mimic the metabolic and oxidative stress 
components of NASH disease in humans {Nakamoto 2009}, {Murakami 2013}. Treatment with

GS-9674 dose-dependently reduced both biochemical and histological measures of liver fibrosis 
in this model. 
Safety pharmacology studies have been conducted to examine the potential effects ofGS-9674 
on the cardiovascular (CV), respiratory, and central nervous system (CNS) systems. There were 
no GS-9674-related effects on the CNS or respiratory system in mice administered up to 
600 mg/kg. In addition, there was no significant human ether-a-go-go-related gene inhibition at 
concentrations up to 100 J..LM or GS-9674-related effects on the CV system in monkeys 
administered up to 300 mg/kg. 
Overall, the results from these pharmacology studies demonstrate that GS-9674 is a potent and 
selective agonist of intestinal FXR with the potential to benefit patients with PSC by inducing 
FGF19 production and reducing bile acid levels.

Low, 
limiting 
The low systemic clearance (CL) of GS-9674 in rats, dogs and monkeys was considerably lower 
than the predicted hepatic clearance based on in vitro studies with hepatocytes. This discrepancy 
is most likely a result of protein-restricted clearance in vivo due to the very high plasma protein 
binding(> 99.6%) across species. The volume of distribution (V ss) ofGS-9674 was consistent 
with extracellular fluid (ranging from 0.16-0.21 Llkg) in rats, dogs, and monkeys. 
After oral dosing to albino and pigmented mice, e
4C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity was 
distributed to most of the tissues, with the highest maximum concentrations of radioactivity 
determined in organs of absorption and excretion. Generally similar distribution patterns and 
tissue concentrations of e4C]GS-9674-derived radioactivity were observed in albino and 
pigmented mice with no observed binding to melanin. In both strains, no quantifiable 
radioactivity was detected in brain, suggesting [14C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity did not cross 
the blood-brain barrier. Fecal elimination was a predominant route of elimination of [14C] 
GS-9674-derived radioactivity in both mice (85.7% and 5.45% recovered in feces and urine, 
respectively) and monkeys (78.2% and 69.7% recovered in feces in intact and bile duct 
cannulated animals) likely representing drug not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. 
Approximately 6% of the administered radioactivity was excreted in bile and urine in monkeys. 
Radiolabeled material was primarily excreted within the first 48 hours. 
GS-9674 undergoes oxidative metabolism in human hepatocytes. Comparison of metabolism in 
hepatocytes from mice, rats, dogs, monkeys, and humans did not identify any metabolites unique 
to humans, supporting the selection of mice and monkeys for the assessment of the toxicology of 
GS-9674. Of the recombinant human CYP isozymes tested, CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP2C19 
were shown to metabolize GS-9674. Potent inhibitors ofthese CYPs therefore may affect 
metabolism ofGS-9674. GS-9674 had little inhibitory effect on the activities ofCYP1A2,

CYP2B6, CYP2C19 or CYP2D6 (IC50 > 25 μM). For CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP3A, IC50
values of 2.4 to 13.6 μM were obtained but GS-9674 was not a mechanism-based inhibitor of 
these enzymes. GS-9674 showed moderate inhibition of human UGT1A1, sodium-taurocholate 
cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), and bile salt export pump (IC50 2.8-7.7 μM). GS-9674 
inhibited human OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1 with IC50 values of 0.68, 0.41, and 
0.21 μM, respectively. GS-9674 therefore has the potential to affect hepatic/intestinal uptake of 
OATP substrates or metabolism of CYP2C8, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 substrates when its 
concentrations are sufficiently high. However, low solubility, high protein binding (> 99.98%) 
and low systemic levels reduce the potential for GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions via 
inhibition of metabolic enzymes and transporters.
GS-9674 was a substrate for efflux transporters P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance 
protein, as well as the uptake transporters OATP1B1, 1B3, and 2B1, and NTCP. Inhibitors or 
genetic polymorphisms affecting the activity of these transporters may affect GS-9674 intestinal 
absorption and hepatic uptake. This was illustrated in an in vivo study in monkeys where 
pretreatment with Cyclosporin A, a known inhibitor of efflux transporters, increased the 
bioavailability of GS-9674 approximately 5-fold.
GS-9674 is highly selective for FXR over other nuclear hormone receptors in cell-based reporter 
assays, including those associated with potential for induction of human drug metabolizing 
enzymes and transporters (eg, pregnane X receptor, constitutive androstane receptor). Thus the 
liability of GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions through proteins regulated by these nuclear 
receptors is low.
1.2.5.
Clinical Trials of GS-9674
As of 23 Sept 2016, 4 Phase 1 clinical studies are ongoing (GS-US-402-1851, GS-US-402-3885, 
GS-US-402-2102, and GS-US-402-2101), and 4 Phase 2 studies in subjects with NAFLD, 
NASH, PBC, and PSC are ongoing or planned (GS-US-384-3914, GS-US-402-1852, 
GS-US-427-4024, and GS-US-428-4025, respectively). These Phase 1 and 2 studies are
described in the IB.
A brief summary of preliminary results, not included in the IB from ongoing study GS-US-402-
2102 is presented below.

GS-US-402-2102
Study GS-US-402-2102 is an ongoing Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, multiple-cohort study 
designed to evaluate transporter and CYP-mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between 
GS-9674 100 mg and various probe drugs in healthy subjects. A total of approximately 180 
subjects are planned to be enrolled.

Preliminary PK results from the following cohorts are presented below and in Table 1-2 and 
Table 1-3:

Cohort 1: Impact of OATP/MRP2/P-gp inhibition (single dose cyclosporine 600 mg: CsA) or 
OATP1B1/1B3 inhibition (single dose rifampin 600 mg: RIF) on single dose administration 
of GS-9674 100 mg with food (N=24).  Single doses of CsA or RIF significantly increased 
GS-9674 exposure (6.5- and 8.0-fold respectively), with more modest increases in 
GS-716070 exposure (3.3- and 4.9-fold respectively). These data indicate the GS-9674 is a 
sensitive substrate of hepatic OATP with intestinal P-gp playing a minimal to no role in 
GS-9674 absorption as seen by a smaller increase in GS-9674 by CsA compared to single 
dose RIF.  Based on these data, coadministration of GS-9674 with potent inhibitors of OATP 
is not recommended and moderate inhibitors of OATP should be used with caution whereas 
GS-9674 may be coadministered with P-gp inhibitors.

Cohort 2: Impact of CYP3A inhibition (multiple dose voriconazole 200 mg BID 4 days: 
VORI) and CYP2C8 inhibition (multiple dose gemfibrozil 600 mg BID 4 days: GFZ) on 
single dose administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food (N=18).  Coadministration of 
GS-9674 with VORI did not result in clinically meaningful changes in GS-9674 or 
GS-716070 exposures indicating that CYP3A plays a minimal role in the disposition of 
GS-9674 and GS-716070.  As such, GS-9674 may be coadministered with CYP3A 
inhibitors. Coadministration of GS-9674 with GFZ increased GS-9674 exposure 75% with 
reduction of GS-716070 exposure by 55% indicating that biotransformation of GS-9674 to 
GS-716070 is predominantly mediated by CYP2C8.  Based on the less than 2-fold increase 
in GS-9674 exposure, GS-9674 may be coadministered with inhibitors of CYP2C8.

Cohort 3: Impact of CYP3A/2C8/OATP/P-gp induction (multiple dose rifampin 600 mg QD 
7 days in the evening: RIF) on single dose AM administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food
(N=18).  Plasma exposure of GS-9674 and GS-716070 were substantially reduced after 
multiple dose administration of RIF indicating that GS-9674 and GS-716070 are sensitive to 
induction of OATP and CYP2C8.  As such coadministration of GS-9674 with potent or 
moderate inducers of OATP or CYP2C8 is not recommended.

Cohort 5: Impact of single dose administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food on CYP3A 
activity (single dose midazolam: MDZ) or OATP/CYP3A activity (single dose atorvastatin: 
ATV) (N=24).  GS-9674 did not alter MDZ exposure (90%CIs of the %GMR for AUC and 
Cmax were contained within the predetermined lack of effect bounds of 70-143%) indicating 
that GS-9674 is not an inhibitor of CYP3A. As such, GS-9674 may be coadministered with 
CYP3A substrates.  GS-9674 modestly increased ATV exposure (39%).  Similar increases in 
ATV exposure do not necessitate a priori dose modification as per the LIPITOR® United 
States product insert (USPI). As such, ATV may be coadministered with GS-9674.

Cohort 6: Impact of single dose administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food on P-gp (single 
dose dabigatran etexilate 75 mg: DE), OATP (single dose pravastatin 40 mg: PRA) or 
OATP/BCRP (single dose rosuvastatin 10 mg: ROS) (N=24). GS-9674 did not alter DE (free 
or total dabigatran: DAB metabolite of DE), PRA, or ROS exposures (90%CIs of the %GMR 
for AUC and Cmax were contained within the predetermined lack of effect bounds of 
70-143%) indicating the GS-9674 is not an inhibitor of P-gp, OATP, or BCRP.  As such,
GS-9674 may be coadministered with P-gp, OATP, or BCRP substrates.

Rationale for this Study
PSC is a disorder of unknown etiology characterized by inflammation and fibrosis of the 
intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic bile ducts that result in the impairment of bile flow (cholestasis). 
Accumulation of excess bile acids causes hepatocellular cytotoxicity that leads to progressive 
liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. In pre-clinical and clinical studies, FXR agonism has been shown to 
reduce bile acid levels via FGF19-mediated suppression of cholesterol-7-alpha-hydroxylase 
(CYP7A1), the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis {Inagaki 2005}, {Pellicciari 2002}, 
{Mudaliar 2013}. In addition, in a murine model of fibrosis caused by administration of a 
methionine choline deficient diet and sodium nitrite injections, GS-9674 has demonstrated an 
anti-fibrotic effect. Thus, GS-9674 is postulated to be beneficial in subjects with PSC.  
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 30 mg and 100 mg GS-9674 
administered with food for 12 weeks in subjects with PSC. The doses were selected based on 
short-term safety, PD and PK results from Study GS-US-402-1851 in healthy subjects. 
Across the range of GS-9674 doses evaluated (10 to 300 mg QD), doses > 30 mg provide 
comparable intestinal FXR agonism assessed by increases in plasma FGF19 exposure. Food, by 
slowing oral absorption of GS-9674, results in prolonged elevation of plasma FGF19 
concentrations. Exposure-response relationships show that changes in C4 exposure are 
negatively correlated with changes in FGF19 exposure as well as GS-9674 exposure. Based on 


GS-9674

Amendment 2

these results, GS-9674 doses of 30 and 100 mg with food are selected for further study as they 
are expected to 1) provide enteral FXR agonism, reductions in bile acid pools, and liver 
biochemical improvements in subjects with PSC; and 2) inform regarding the impact of 
increasing systemic GS-9674 exposure on safety and efficacy.
In the Phase 1 study, GS-US-402-1851, GS-9674 was tested at doses up to 300 mg once daily for 
up to 14 days and was well-tolerated. Taken together, these data support the evaluation of 
GS-9674 30 and 100 mg in subjects with PSC.
Inclusion criteria for this study were developed in order to identify subjects with PSC who have 
persistently abnormal liver biochemistry but without cirrhosis. These subjects are at an increased 
risk of PSC-related complications including the need for liver transplantation and death. Subjects 
with clinical and histologic evidence of cirrhosis will be excluded from this study due to the 
uncertain PK and PD properties of GS-9674 to the setting of subjects with cirrhosis. Targeting 
interventions in the proposed study population will provide evidence for the safety and efficacy 
of GS-9674 in subjects at risk for progressive hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis.
1.4.
Risk/Benefit Assessment for the Study
This study will provide information on the safety and efficacy of GS-9674 for the treatment of 
patients with PSC. It should be noted that there are no currently approved therapies specifically 
for the treatment of PSC. The only therapeutic option available to PSC subjects with advanced 
liver disease is liver transplantation.
The potential benefits of GS-9674 for the treatment of PSC in the current study population 
include hypothesized improvements in hepatic injury due to reduced bile acid synthesis 
attributable to FXR agonism. Improvements in liver biochemistry, hepatic fibrogenesis, and 
potentially quality of life, would be expected to ensue based on these effects. Subjects with PSC 
randomized to the placebo control arm in the study may benefit from frequent medical 
monitoring and close assessment of their PSC and associated pathologies during the duration of 
placebo treatment. Moreover, all subjects, including those treated with placebo during the 
randomized phase, will have the opportunity to receive GS-9674 treatment during a long-term 
open-label extension phase.
In the Phase 1 study, 94 subjects have received GS-9674 in single or multiple doses (14 days) up 
to 300 mg. All treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild to moderate (Grade 1 or 
2), and overall, the rate of any adverse events (AEs) was similar between subjects treated with 
GS-9674 or placebo. The predominant toxicities were anemia, back pain, diarrhea, and headache. 
Grade 2 or 3 elevations in serum ALT were seen in five (5%) GS-9674 treated subjects and one 
(4%) placebo treated subject. Grade 2 or 3 ALT elevations that occurred on-treatment were 
observed in 2/23 (9%) BID treated subjects, but none of the 71 subjects who received once daily 
(QD) GS-9674 dosing. In these cases, elevations in serum bilirubin or prolongation of INR were 
not observed, serum ALT levels normalized upon treatment cessation, and no evidence of drug 
hypersensitivity syndrome (e.g., fever, rash, eosinophilia) was noted. In nonclinical studies, 
effects on the liver have been limited to non-adverse mild increases in alkaline phosphatase and 
liver weights and minimal hepatocellular hypertrophy that are likely a pharmacological response

to FXR agonism. There were no elevations in liver transaminases or changes in liver pathology 
(degeneration/necrosis) in the nonclinical studies to suggest direct cellular damage. In order to 
mitigate the potential risk of hepatotoxicity with GS-9674, QD dosing of GS-9674 has been 
chosen for this study. Moreover, close monitoring of liver biochemistry values will be performed 
and parameters for discontinuation of the study drugs due to liver test abnormalities have been 
defined (see Section 7.5, Toxicity Management: Observation for Drug-Induced Liver Injury) and 
will be closely followed.
Additional risks to study subjects include those attributable to study participation in general, 
including risks associated with frequent clinic visits and laboratory blood draws, and the 
associated pain and discomfort of phlebotomy. Strategies to mitigate these risks include close 
monitoring of lab values as well as AEs. Parameters for discontinuation of the study drugs due to 
AEs and non-hepatic laboratory abnormalities are also defined and will be closely followed.
Overall, the nonclinical and limited preliminary clinical data show a positive benefit/risk ratio in 
support of the study in subjects with PSC.

Treatment Plan and Regimen
Subjects meeting the study’s entry criteria will be randomly assigned in a 2:2:1 ratio to 1 of 3 
different treatment groups during the Blinded Study Phase as shown in Figure 3-1. 
Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence of UDCA use.
Study drug(s) will be administered for a total of 12 weeks from the Baseline/Day 1 visit during 
the Blinded Study Phase and 96 weeks during the OLE Phase. During the OLE Phase subjects 
will begin open-label treatment with GS-9674 (100 mg po daily). The dose of GS-9674 may be 
reduced from 100 mg to 30 mg (or subsequently increased back to 100 mg) at the PI’s discretion 
with the approval of the MM, as required.
Subjects will be unblinded to their Blinded Study Phase treatment assignment after the primary 
analysis has been completed, approximately 6 weeks after all subjects have completed the 
Blinded Study Phase.
Dosage and administration of the study drug(s) and reference product are described in 
Section 5.3.
3.3.
Biomarker Testing
3.3.1.
Biomarker Samples to Address the Study Objectives:
Biological specimens will be collected in this study as per the study procedures table
(Appendix 2) and will be used to evaluate the association of exploratory systemic biomarkers 
with study drug response, including efficacy and/or adverse events and to increase knowledge 
and understanding of the biology of PSC or related diseases such as Primary Biliary Cholangitis 
(PBC) and/or the validation of a companion diagnostic for PSC. Because biomarker science is a 
rapidly evolving area of investigation, and adverse events in particular are difficult to predict, it 
is not possible to specify prospectively all tests that will be done on the specimens provided.  The 
testing outlined is based upon the current state of scientific knowledge. It may be modified 
during or after the end of the study to remove tests no longer indicated and/or to add new tests 
based upon the growing state of art knowledge. Samples will be destroyed no later than 15 years 
after the end of the study.
Biomarker testing can include biomarkers that monitor auto-antibodies characteristic of PSC, and 
markers of bone metabolism. In addition biomarkers such as biochemicals, biological 
macromolecules, naturally occurring metabolites, and biomarkers of FXR activity (e.g. FGF19, 
C4 and bile acids) can also be determined.

INVESTIGATIONAL MEDICINAL PRODUCTS 
5.1. 
Randomization, Blinding and Treatment Codes 
Final 
Amendment 2 
An Interactive Web Response System (IWRS) will be used for centralized randomization and 
treatment assignment. Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence ofUDCA use. 
Investigative site personnel will obtain the subject's identification number and study drug 
assignment from the IWRS. Subjects and all personnel directly involved in the conduct of the 
study will be blinded to treatment assignment. 
Study drug(s) will be dispensed by the study pharmacist, or designee, in a blinded fashion to the 
subjects. 
5.1.1. 
Procedures for Breaking Treatment Codes 
In the event of a medical emergency where breaking the blind is required to provide medical care 
to the subject, the investigator may obtain treatment assignment directly from the IWRS system 
for that subject (refer to the Study Reference Binder for IWRS unblinding instructions). Gilead 
recommends but does not require that the investigator contact the Gilead medical monitor before 
breaking the blind. Treatment assignment should remain blinded unless that knowledge is 
necessary to determine subject emergency medical care. The rationale for unblinding must be 
clearly explained in source documentation and on the case report form/ electronic case report 
form ( eCRF), along with the date on which the treatment assignment was obtained. The 
investigator is requested to contact the Gilead medical monitor promptly in case of any treatment 
unblinding. 
Blinding of study treatment is critical to the integrity of this clinical trial and therefore, if a 
subject's treatment assignment is disclosed to the investigator, the subject will have study 
treatment discontinued. All subjects will be followed until study completion unless consent to do 
so is specifically withdrawn by the subject. 
Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) may independently unblind cases for expedited 
reporting of suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs ).

reduced from 100 mg to 30 mg (or subsequently increased back to 100 mg) at the PI’s discretion 
with the approval of the MM, as required.
The study drug dose should be taken at approximately the same time each day with food.
A dose will be considered missed if the subject cannot take the dose within 12 hours of their 
regular dosing time. If a subject misses a dose, the subject should take their next dose at the 
regular dosing time.
5.4.
Prior and Concomitant Medications
Concomitant use of certain medications or herbal/natural supplements with study drug may result 
in PK and/or PD interactions resulting in increases or decreases in exposure of study drug(s) or 
these medications. 
Concomitant medications taken within 28 days of screening through the follow-up visit need to 
be recorded in the source documents and electronic Case Report Forms (eCRFs).
Subjects with co-morbid diseases requiring medication(s) must be taking the medication without 
a change in dose within 28 days of Baseline/Day 1.
GS-9674 increased atorvastatin exposure (39%) which does not necessitate a priori dose 
modification based on the LIPITOR USPI.  Subjects taking atorvastatin with GS-9674 should be 
monitored as per label recommendations.
5.5.
Prohibited Medications
The following medications are prohibited from 28 days prior to Baseline/Day 1 up to and 
including the day of the last dose of study drug:

Vitamin E

STUDY PROCEDURES
The study procedures to be conducted for each subject randomized in the study are presented in 
tabular form in Appendix 2 and described in the text that follows. Additional information is 
provided in Study Reference Binder.
The investigator must document any deviation from protocol procedures and notify the sponsor 
or contract research organization (CRO).
6.1.
Subject Randomization and Treatment Assignment
It is the responsibility of the investigator to ensure that subjects are eligible to participate in the 
study prior to randomization and throughout the study. 
Documentation of the personally signed and dated informed consent of each subject, using the 
study-specific ICF, is required before initiating the screening process.
After written informed consent has been obtained and eligibility to participate established, 
investigative site personnel will obtain the subject’s identification number and study drug 
assignment from the interactive web response system (IWRS).
6.2.
Pretreatment Assessments-Screening Visit
Subjects will be screened within 4 weeks before randomization to determine eligibility for 
participation in the study. The screening period may be extended under special circumstances 
with the explicit approval of the Medical Monitor. 
Subjects who fail to meet eligibility criteria may be rescreened. Retesting of subject’s screening 
labs may be permitted if there are reasons to believe that the retest values will be within protocol 
specified parameters.  Reasons may include but will not be limited to sample processing errors 
during initial sampling and extenuating circumstances such as inter-current infections, lab 
mishandling and results abnormal from historic.
Screening labs may be repeated once within the screening period, prior to administration of study 
drug to rule out laboratory error, if any. This will be done at the discretion of the investigator.
The following will be performed and documented at Screening:

Obtain written informed consent before initiation of any screening procedures

Review and record whether the subject meets inclusion and exclusion criteria

Obtain screening number from IWRS

Assessments for Premature Discontinuation from Study
Subjects prematurely discontinuing from the study either during the Blinded Study Phase or 
during the OLE Phase (for example, as a result of an AE), should have an Early Termination 
(ET) visit completed followed by a follow-up visit 4 weeks after the last dose of the study 
medication. The study assessments to be performed at the ET visit are the same as those 
performed at the Week 12 visit (refer to Section 6.4.2) for ET subjects in the Blinded Study 
Phase and Week 96 visit for ET subjects in the OLE Phase (refer to Section 6.6). The study 
assessments to be performed at the follow-up visits are listed in Section 6.5 and 6.8 respectively. 
The subject will then be withdrawn from the study.
If these visits are not possible or acceptable to the subject or investigator, the subject may be 
withdrawn from the study.

Criteria for Discontinuation of Study Treatment
Study medication may be discontinued in the following instances:

Intercurrent illness that would, in the judgment of the investigator, affect assessments of 
clinical status to a significant degree. Following resolution of intercurrent illness, the subject 
may resume study dosing at the discretion of the investigator.

Subject noncompliance

Sponsor discretion
Study medication must be discontinued in the following instances:

Unacceptable toxicity,  or toxicity that, in the judgment of the investigator, compromises the 
ability to continue study-specific procedures or is considered to not be in the subject’s best 
interest

Subject request to discontinue for any reason

Pregnancy

ADVERSE EVENTS AND TOXICITY MANAGEMENT
7.1.
Definitions of Adverse Events, Adverse Reactions, and Serious Adverse 
Events
7.1.1.
Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study subject 
administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to 
the medicinal product. AEs may also include pre- or post-treatment complications that occur as a 
result of protocol specified procedures, overdose, drug abuse/misuse reports, or occupational 
exposure. Preexisting events that increase in severity or change in nature during or as a 
consequence of participation in the clinical study will also be considered AEs.
An AE does not include the following:

Medical or surgical procedures such as surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, and transfusion.
The condition that led to the procedure may be an adverse event and must be reported

Pre-existing diseases, conditions, or laboratory abnormalities present or detected before the 
Screening visit that do not worsen

Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (eg., hospitalization for 
elective surgery, social and/or convenience admissions)

Overdose without clinical sequelae (see Section 7.6.1)

Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date 
before the consent form is signed and not related to a protocol-associated procedure is not an 
AE. It is considered to be pre-existing and should be documented on the medical history 
CRF.
7.1.2.
Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following:

Death

Life-threatening (Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.)

In-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 2
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 57
21 December 2016

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

A congenital anomaly/birth defect

A medically important event or reaction: such events may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the subject or may 
require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs. Medical and 
scientific judgment must be exercised to determine whether such an event is a reportable 
under expedited reporting rules. Examples of medically important events include intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; and development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse. For the avoidance of doubt, infections resulting from contaminated medicinal 
product will be considered a medically important event and subject to expedited reporting 
requirements.
7.1.3.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance are not recorded as AEs or SAEs. 
However, laboratory abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) that 
require medical or surgical intervention or lead to study drug interruption, modification, or 
discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, 
laboratory or other abnormal assessments (eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are 
associated with signs and/or symptoms must be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the 
definition of an AE or SAE as described in Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. If the laboratory 
abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the syndrome or diagnosis (eg, anemia), not the 
laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
For specific information on handling of clinical laboratory abnormalities in this study, please 
refer to (Section 7.5).
7.2.
Assessment of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing AEs and SAEs for 
causality and severity, and for final review and confirmation of accuracy of event information 
and assessments.
7.2.1.
Assessment of Causality for Study Drugs and Procedures
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing the relationship to 
GS-9674 therapy using clinical judgment and the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the GS-9674. For 
SAEs, an alternative causality must be provided (eg, pre-existing condition, underlying 
disease, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medication).


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 2
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 58
21 December 2016

Yes: There is reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the 
investigational medicinal product.
It should be emphasized that ineffective treatment should not be considered as causally related in 
the context of adverse event reporting. 
The relationship to study procedures (eg, invasive procedures such as venipuncture or biopsy) 
should be assessed using the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study procedure.

Yes: The adverse event occurred as a result of protocol procedures (eg., venipuncture)
7.2.2.
Assessment of Severity
The severity grading of AEs will be assessed as Grade 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 according to the 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03, which can be found 
at http://evs.nci.nih.gov/ftp1/CTCAE/CTCAE_4.03_2010-06-14_QuickReference_8.5x11.pdf
(Appendix 3).
For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the 
clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement 
with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.
The distinction between the seriousness and the severity of an adverse event should be noted. 
Severe is a measure of intensity; thus, a severe reaction is not necessarily a serious reaction. For 
example, a headache may be severe in intensity, but would not be classified as serious unless it 
met one of the criteria for serious events listed above.
7.3.
Investigator Requirements and Instructions for Reporting Adverse Events 
and Serious Adverse Events to Gilead
Requirements for collection prior to study drug initiation:
After informed consent, but prior to initiation of study medication, the following types of events 
should be reported on the case report form (eCRF): all SAEs and adverse events related to 
protocol-mandated procedures.
Adverse Events
Following initiation of study medication, collect all AEs, regardless of cause or relationship, 
until 30 days after last administration of GS-9674; AEs must be reported to the eCRF database as 
instructed.
All AEs should be followed up until resolution or until the adverse event is stable, if possible. 
Gilead Sciences may request that certain AEs be followed beyond the protocol defined follow up 
period.

Serious Adverse Events
All SAEs, regardless of cause or relationship, that occurs after the subject first consents to 
participate in the study (ie, signing the informed consent) and throughout the duration of the 
study, including the protocol-required post treatment follow-up period, must be reported to the 
eCRF database and Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) as instructed. This also 
includes any SAEs resulting from protocol-associated procedures performed after informed 
consent is signed.
Any SAEs and deaths that occur after the post treatment follow-up visit and within 30 days of 
the last dose of study drug, regardless of causality, should also be reported. 
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek SAEs after the protocol defined follow up period; 
however, if the investigator learns of any SAEs that occur after study participation has concluded 
and the event is deemed relevant to the use of IMP, he/she should promptly document and report 
the event to Gilead DSPH.

All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the eCRF database within the timelines outlined in the 
eCRF completion guideline. 
Electronic Serious Adverse Event (eSAE) Reporting Process

Site personnel record all SAE data in the eCRF database and from there transmit the SAE 
information to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event. 
Detailed instructions can be found in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If for any reason it is not possible to record the SAE information electronically, ie, the eCRF 
database is not functioning, record the SAE on the paper serious adverse event reporting 
form and submit within 24 hours to:
Gilead DSPH
Email:
Safety_FC@gilead.com
Fax:
+1 650-522-5477

As soon as it is possible to do so, any SAE reported via paper must be transcribed into the 
eCRF Database according to instructions in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If an SAE has been reported via a paper form because the eCRF database has been locked, no 
further action is necessary.

For fatal or life-threatening events, copies of hospital case reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents are also to be submitted by e-mail or fax when requested and applicable. 
Transmission of such documents should occur without personal subject identification, 
maintaining the traceability of a document to the subject identifiers.

Additional information may be requested to ensure the timely completion of accurate safety 
reports.

Gilead Reporting Requirements
Depending on relevant local legislation or regulations, including the applicable US FDA Code of 
Federal Regulations, the EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) and relevant updates, and 
other country-specific legislation or regulations, Gilead may be required to expedite to 
worldwide regulatory agencies reports of SAEs, serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs), or 
suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs). In accordance with the EU Clinical 
Trials Directive (2001/20/EC), Gilead or a specified designee will notify worldwide regulatory 
agencies and the relevant IEC in concerned Member States of applicable SUSARs as outlined in 
current regulations.
Assessment of expectedness for SAEs will be determined by Gilead using reference safety 
information specified in the investigator’s brochure or relevant local label as applicable. 
All investigators will receive a safety letter notifying them of relevant SUSAR reports associated 
with any study drug. The investigator should notify the IRB or IEC of SUSAR reports as soon as 
is practical, where this is required by local regulatory agencies, and in accordance with the local 
institutional policy.
To minimize the possibility of exposing study subjects to unusual risk, the safety information 
from this study will also be reviewed periodically by an independent Data Monitoring 
Committee (DMC). The DMC may have access to partially blinded or unblinded data and will 
make recommendations regarding the study according to the DMC charter. See Section 8.12 for
additional details regarding the DMC.

Toxicity Management 
7.5.1.
PSC Specific Study Stopping Rule:
Any subject without a history of IBD, who develops new onset IBD while participating in the 
study, must be discontinued from the study. Any subject with a history of IBD who experiences 
at least a 2-point increase in the partial Mayo score while in the study must be discontinued from 
the study. Also, any subject who experiences ≥ 2 episodes of ascending cholangitis in a 6-month 
period, clinical evidence of hepatic decompensation (e.g., ascites, variceal hemorrhage, or 
hepatic encephalopathy), and/or the occurrence of cholangiocarcinoma or hepatocellular 
carcinoma must also be discontinued from the study.
7.5.2.
Observation for Drug Induced Liver Injury (DILI):
Although subjects randomized in this study will have baseline liver disease, their hepatic 
function should not be significantly impaired. However, at baseline, some may have liver 
biochemistry levels above the upper limit of normal (ULN). Baseline values for liver tests (ALT,

AST, total bilirubin, and ALP) will be determined by averaging the values obtained at screening 
and Baseline/Day 1.  
For subjects with ALT and AST below ULN at study start, close observation for DILI (as 
described below) will be performed in subjects with any of the following criteria (all labs 
confirmed by repeat testing):

ALT or AST > 3 x ULN 

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN

Alkaline phosphatase > 3 x ULN

INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%)
For subjects with ALT or AST between 1 and 10 x ULN at study start, close observation for 
DILI (as described below) will be performed in subjects with any of the following criteria (all 
labs confirmed by repeat testing):

ALT or AST > 2 x baseline at any time

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN  

Alkaline phosphatase > 3 x ULN

INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%).  
Close observation includes:

Repeating liver biochemistries (ALT, AST, ALP, total bilirubin, INR) and obtaining CPK 
levels within 48 hours

Obtaining a more detailed history of symptoms and prior or concurrent disease

Obtaining a history of concomitant drug use (including nonprescription medications and 
herbal and dietary supplement preparations), alcohol use, recreational drug use, and special 
diets

Obtaining a history of exposure to environmental chemical agents


Ruling out other causes of liver disease as needed (obtain viral hepatitis panel, imaging for 
evaluation of biliary tract disease, etc. if required in the opinion of the primary investigator)

Continue to monitor liver biochemistries twice weekly. Frequency can decrease to once a 
week or less if abnormalities stabilize or study drug has been discontinued and subject is 
asymptomatic
During a period of close observation, study drug can be continued, if desired, at the discretion of 
the Gilead Medical Monitor and the principal investigator during the DILI evaluation. 
However, for all subjects, study drug should be withheld if any of the following criteria are met:

ALT or AST > 5 x baseline

ALT or AST >10 x ULN 

ALT or AST >3 x baseline with 1 or more of the following:
Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or 1.5 x baseline
INR > 1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)
Appearance of clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, 
consistent with drug-induced hepatotoxicity

ALT or AST > baseline with any 2 or more of the following:
Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or 1.5 x baseline
INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)
Appearance of clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, 
consistent with drug-induced hepatotoxicity
AND

No other cause for the combination of laboratory abnormalities is immediately apparent (e.g. 
prolonged INR with warfarin use) important potential causes or contributors to abnormal 
AST/ALT or total bilirubin values include, but are not limited to:
— Obstructive gall bladder or bile duct disease
— Viral or alcoholic hepatitis (e.g. hepatitis A/B/C/D/E, Epstein-Barr virus, 
cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella)
— Autoimmune hepatitis
— Concomitant administration of other hepatotoxins, including excessive doses of 
acetaminophen, drugs that inhibit bilirubin glucuronidation (e.g. indinavir, atazanavir, 
irinotecan), or herbal or dietary supplements

— Hypoxic or ischemic hepatopathy or congestive hepatopathy in association with 
significant right-sided heart failure
— Wilson disease
— Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
— Progression of malignancy involving the liver (note that metastatic disease to the liver, by 
itself, should not be used as an explanation for significant AST/ALT elevations)
If study drugs are withheld, they may be reintroduced with approval from the Medical Monitor if 
another etiology for elevated liver tests is present. Study drug must be discontinued if close 
monitoring of a patient for DILI is not possible or if total bilirubin, ALT or AST elevation recurs 
following re-challenge with study drug.
Treatment-emergent toxicities will be noted by the Investigator and brought to the attention of 
the Medical Monitor. Whether or not considered treatment-related, all subjects experiencing AEs 
must be monitored periodically until symptoms subside, any abnormal laboratory values have 
resolved or returned to baseline levels or they are considered irreversible, or until there is a 
satisfactory explanation for the changes observed.

Other than in the case of the liver enzymes noted above, Grade 3 or 4 clinically significant 
laboratory AEs should be confirmed by repeat testing as soon as practical to do so, and 
preferably within 3 calendar days of receipt of the original test results.

For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of 
the clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in 
agreement with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.

Any questions regarding toxicity management should be directed to the Medical Monitor.

Special Situations Reports
7.6.1.
Definitions of Special Situations
Special situation reports include all reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, overdose, reports 
of AEs associated with product complaints, occupational exposure with an AE, pregnancy 
reports regardless of an associated AE, and AE in an infant following exposure from 
breastfeeding.  
Medication error is any unintentional error in the prescribing, dispensing, or administration of a 
medicinal product while in the control of the health care provider, subject, or consumer. 
Abuse is defined as persistent or sporadic intentional excessive use of a medicinal product by a 
subject.

21 December 2016
Misuse is defined as any intentional and inappropriate use of a medicinal product that is not in 
accordance with the protocol instructions or the local prescribing information.
An overdose is defined as an accidental or intentional administration of a quantity of a medicinal 
product given per administration or cumulatively which is above the maximum recommended 
dose as per protocol or in the product labeling (as it applies to the daily dose of the subject in 
question). In cases of a discrepancy in drug accountability, overdose will be established only 
when it is clear that the subject has taken the excess dose(s). Overdose cannot be established 
when the subject cannot account for the discrepancy except in cases in which the investigator has 
reason to suspect that the subject has taken the additional dose(s).
Product complaint is defined as complaints arising from potential deviations in the manufacture, 
packaging, or distribution of the medicinal product.  
Occupational exposure with an AE: exposure to a medicinal product as a result of one’s 
professional or non-professional occupation.
7.6.2.
Instructions for Reporting Special Situations
7.6.2.1.
Instructions for Reporting Pregnancies
The investigator should report pregnancies in female study subjects that are identified after 
initiation of study medication and throughout the study, including the post study drug follow-up 
period, to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy report form within 24 hours of becoming aware of 
the pregnancy.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of pregnancy reporting.
The pregnancy itself is not considered an AE nor is an induced elective abortion to terminate a 
pregnancy without medical reasons.
Any premature termination of pregnancy (eg, a spontaneous abortion, an induced therapeutic 
abortion due to complications or other medical reasons) must be reported within 24 hours as an 
SAE. The underlying medical reason for this procedure should be recorded as the AE term.
A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as described in 
Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Furthermore, any SAE occurring as an adverse pregnancy outcome post 
study must be reported to Gilead DSPH.
The subject should receive appropriate monitoring and care until the conclusion of the 
pregnancy. The outcome should be reported to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy outcome report 
form. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been completed, the outcome should 
be reported directly to Gilead DSPH. Gilead DSPH contact information is as follows: Email: 
Safety_FC@gilead.com and Fax: +1 (650) 522-5477.

Pregnancies of female partners of male study subjects exposed to Gilead or other study drugs 
must also be reported and relevant information should be submitted to Gilead DSPH using the 
pregnancy and pregnancy outcome forms within 24 hours. Monitoring of the subject should 
continue until the conclusion of the pregnancy. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study 
has been completed, the outcome should be reported directly to Gilead DSPH, fax number +1 
650 522-5477 or email Safety_FC@gilead.com. 
Refer to Appendix 4 for Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing Potential, 
and Contraceptive Requirements.
7.6.2.2.
Reporting Other Special Situations
All other special situation reports must be reported on the special situations report form and 
forwarded to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator becoming aware of the situation. 
These reports must consist of situations that involve study drug and/or Gilead concomitant 
medications, but do not apply to non-Gilead concomitant medications. 
Special situations involving non-Gilead concomitant medications does not need to be reported on 
the special situations report form; however, for special situations that result in AEs due to a non-
Gilead concomitant medication, the AE should be reported on the AE form. 
Any inappropriate use of concomitant medications prohibited by this protocol should not be 
reported as “misuse,” but may be more appropriately documented as a protocol deviation.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of special situations reporting.
All clinical sequelae in relation to these special situation reports will be reported as AEs or SAEs 
at the same time using the AE eCRF and/or the SAE report form. Details of the symptoms and 
signs, clinical management, and outcome will be reported, when available.

Analysis by Study Phase 
Final 
Amendment 2 
Result of statistical analysis for the randomized phase will be presented by treatment groups. 
Safety data from the OLE Phase will be summarized for overall subjects who roll-over into the 
OLE Phase for safety review, supporting regulatory document update or publication purposes. 
8.3. 
Data Handling Conventions 
Missing data can have an impact on the interpretation of the trial data. In general, values for 
missing data will not be imputed. 
Where appropriate, safety data for subjects that did not complete the study will be included in 
summary statistics. For example, if a subject received study medication, the subject will be 
included in a summary of adverse events according to the treatment received; otherwise, if the 
subject is not dosed then they will be excluded from the summary. If safety laboratory results for 
a subject are missing for any reason at a time point, the subject will be excluded from the 
calculation of summary statistics for that time point. If the subject is missing a pre-dose value, 
then the subject will be excluded from the calculation of summary statistics for the pre-dose 
value and the change from pre-dose values. 
Values for missing safety laboratory data and vital signs will not be imputed; however, a missing 
baseline result will be replaced with a screening result, if available. If no pre-treatment 
laboratory value is available, the baseline value will be assumed to be normal (ie, no grade 
[Grade 0]) for the summary of graded laboratory abnormalities. 
8.4. 
Demographic Data and Baseline Characteristics 
Demographic and baseline measurements will be summarized using standard descriptive 
methods (n, mean, SD, median, Ql, Q3, minimum, and maximum) by treatment group and 
overall. Demographic summaries will include sex, race/ethnicity, and age. 
Baseline characteristics summary will include body weight, height, body mass index, and other 
disease characteristics.

months in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc basis if there are at least 3 similar 
Grade ≥ 3 serious, treatment-related Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 
(CTCAE) observed in the trial. In the event of two similar treatment-related Grade 4 CTCAE 
events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, the DMC will review the data and advise the 
sponsor regarding stopping or continuing the trial. The DMC will provide recommendation to 
Gilead whether the nature, frequency, and severity of adverse effects associated with study 
treatment warrant the early termination of the study in the best interests of the participants, 
whether the study should continue as planned, or the study should continue with modifications. 
The DMC may also provide recommendations as needed regarding study design.
The DMC’s specific activities will be defined by a mutually agreed charter, which will define the 
DMC’s membership, conduct and meeting schedule.
While the DMC will be asked to advise Gilead regarding future conduct of the study, including 
possible early study termination, Gilead retains final decision-making authority on all aspects of 
the study.

Concomitant medication (including start and end date, dose if relevant; dose changes);

Date of study completion and reason for early discontinuation, if it occurs.
All clinical study documents must be retained by the investigator until at least 2 years or 
according to local laws, whichever is longer, after the last approval of a marketing application in 
an ICH region (ie, United States, Europe, or Japan) and until there are no pending or planned 
marketing applications in an ICH region; or, if no application is filed or if the application is not 
approved for such indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and regulatory 
authorities have been notified. Investigators may be required to retain documents longer if 
specified by regulatory requirements, by local regulations, or by an agreement with Gilead. The 
investigator must notify Gilead before destroying any clinical study records.
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, Gilead must be notified in advance.
If the investigator cannot provide for this archiving requirement at the study site for any or all of 
the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and Gilead to store 
these records securely away from the site so that they can be returned sealed to the investigator 
in case of an inspection. When source documents are required for the continued care of the 
subject, appropriate copies should be made for storage away from the site.
9.1.6.
Case Report Forms
For each subject consented, an electronic case report form (eCRF) will be completed by an 
authorized study staff member whose training for this function is documented according to study 
procedures. eCRF should be completed on the day of the subject visit to enable the sponsor to 
perform central monitoring of safety data.  The Eligibility Criteria eCRF should be completed 
only after all data related to eligibility have been received.  Subsequent to data entry, a study 
monitor will perform source data verification within the EDC system. Original entries as well as

any changes to data fields will be stored in the audit trail of the system.  Prior to database lock 
(or any interim time points as described in the clinical data management plan), the investigator 
will use his/her log in credentials to confirm that the forms have been reviewed, and that the 
entries accurately reflect the information in the source documents. The eCRF capture the data 
required per the protocol schedule of events and procedures. System-generated or manual 
queries will be issued to the investigative site staff as data discrepancies are identified by the 
monitor or internal Gilead staff, who routinely review the data for completeness, correctness, and 
consistency. The site coordinator is responsible for responding to the queries in a timely manner, 
within the system, either by confirming the data as correct or updating the original entry, and 
providing the reason for the update (e.g. data entry error). At the conclusion of the trial, Gilead 
will provide the site with a read-only archive copy of the data entered by that site. This archive 
must be stored in accordance with the records retention requirements outlined in Section 9.1.5.
9.1.7.
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability and Return
Where possible, study drug should be destroyed at the site. If the site does not have acceptable 
procedures in place for drug destruction, arrangements will be made between the site and 
Gilead Sciences (or Gilead Sciences’ representative) for return of unused study drug supplies. 
The study monitor will provide instructions for return.
The study monitor will evaluate each study center’s study drug disposal procedures and provide 
appropriate instruction for destruction of unused study drug supplies. If the site has an 
appropriate standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by Gilead 
QA, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused study drug supplies in 
accordance with that site’s approved SOP. A copy of the site’s approved SOP will be obtained 
for central files. 
If study drug is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all study 
drug destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the 
method of destruction, and the person who disposed of the study drug. Upon study completion, 
copies of the study drug accountability records must be filed at the site. Another copy will be 
returned to Gilead. Refer to the pharmacy binder for study drug disposal/return instructions.
The study monitor will review study drug supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.
9.1.8.
Inspections
The investigator will make available all source documents and other records for this trial to 
Gilead’s appointed study monitors to the IRB/IEC/EC, or to regulatory authority or health 
authority inspectors.
9.1.9.
Protocol Compliance
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol.

Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing 
Potential, and Contraceptive Requirements
1. Definitions
a. Definition of Childbearing Potential
For the purposes of this study, a female born subject is considered of childbearing potential 
following the initiation of puberty (Tanner stage 2) until becoming post-menopausal, unless 
permanently sterile or with medically documented ovarian failure.  
Women are considered to be in a postmenopausal state when they are > 54 years of age with 
cessation of previously occurring menses for > 12 months without an alternative cause.  In 
addition, women of any age with amenorrhea of > 12 months may also be considered 
postmenopausal if their follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level is in the postmenopausal range 
and they are not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy.
Permanent sterilization includes hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral 
salpingectomy in a female subject of any age.
b. Definition of Male Fertility
For the purposes of this study, a male born subject is considered of fertile after the initiation of 
puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy or medical documentation.
2. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects
a. Study Drug Effects on Pregnancy and Hormonal Contraception
GS-9674 has not yet been studied in pregnant women. In the initial dose range-finding studies in 
pregnant mice and rabbits, there were no effects on embryofetal development other than a 
decrease in fetal body weights in pregnant rabbits administered 1000 mg/kg/day. The decrease in 
fetal body weights are likely secondary to maternal toxicity rather than a direct effect of 
GS-9674. The NOEL for embryo/fetal development is 300 mg/kg/day in mice and 
200 mg/kg/day in rabbits. These doses were associated with exposures that are > 50-fold higher 
than the anticipated human exposure at the maximum proposed human dose of 100 mg once 
daily. Drug-drug interaction (DDI) data do not suggest a potential for interaction with hormones 
used for contraception.
Please refer to the latest version of the Investigator’s Brochure for additional information.

b. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects of Childbearing Potential
The inclusion of female subjects of childbearing potential requires the use of highly effective 
contraceptive measures. They must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a 
negative pregnancy test on the Baseline/Day 1 visit prior to randomization. At minimum, a 
pregnancy test will be performed at all study visits except Blinded Study Phase Week 2 and OLE 
Weeks 1 and 2 and at 30 days after the last dose of the study drug.  Female subjects must agree 
to one of the following from Screening until 30 days following the last dose of the study drug 
GS-9674.

Complete abstinence from intercourse of reproductive potential.  Abstinence is an acceptable 
method of contraception only when it is in line with the subject’s preferred and usual 
lifestyle. 
Or

Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed below. 
Intrauterine device (IUD) with a failure rate of <1% per year
Tubal sterilization
Essure micro-insert system (provided confirmation of success 3 months after procedure)
Vasectomy in the male partner (provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner and 
had confirmation of surgical success 3 months after procedure)
Or

Consistent and correct use of one hormonal method and one barrier method.
Barrier methods
■
Diaphragm with spermicide
■
Cervical cap with spermicide
■
Male condom (with or without spermicide)
Hormonal methods
■
Oral contraceptives (either combined or progesterone only)
■
Injectable progesterone
■
Implants of levonorgestrel
■
Transdermal contraceptive patch
■
Contraceptive vaginal ring

Female subjects must also refrain from egg donation and in vitro fertilization during treatment 
and until at least 30 days after the last dose of the study drug GS-9674.
3. Contraception Requirements for Male Subjects
It is theoretically possible that a relevant systemic concentration may be achieved in a female 
partner from exposure of the male subject’s seminal fluid.  Therefore, male subjects with female 
partners of childbearing potential must use condoms (plus spermicide) during treatment and until 
90 days after last dose of GS-9674. Additional contraception recommendations should also be 
considered if the female partner is not pregnant.
Male subjects must agree to avoid sperm donation during treatment and until at least 90 days 
after the last dose of study drug GS-9674.
4. Unacceptable Birth Control Methods
Birth control methods that are unacceptable include periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, 
ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), spermicides 
only, and lactational amenorrhea method (LAM).  Female condom and male condom should not 
be used together.
5. Procedures to be Followed in the Event of Pregnancy
Subjects will be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time during 
the study, or if they become pregnant within 30 days (90 days of partner of male subject) of last 
study drug dose. Subjects who become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant during the 
study must report the information to the investigator and discontinue study drug immediately. 
Subjects whose partner has become pregnant or suspects she is pregnant during the study must 
report the information to the investigator. Instructions for reporting pregnancy, partner 
pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome are outlined in Section 7.6.2.1.

Study Design:
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study 
evaluating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects 
with PSC without cirrhosis.
The study will consist of 2 phases, a Blinded Study Phase and an 
Open Label Extension (OLE) Phase. 
Blinded Study Phase: Includes a 4-week screening period, 12 weeks 
of blinded treatment, and a Blinded Study Phase follow-up visit, 4 
weeks after completion of blinded treatment. 
Subjects completing the Blinded Study Phase without permanently 
discontinuing study drug will be eligible to participate in the OLE 
Phase of the study.
OLE Phase:  Includes a 96-week OLE and an OLE Phase follow-up 
visit 4 weeks after completion of open label treatment.
Participation in the Blinded Study Phase can last up to 20 weeks and 
the OLE Phase can last up to 100 weeks, thus total study duration can 
be up 120 weeks.

complete medical history, complete physical examination (PE), vital 
signs, cirrhosis assessments, laboratory assessments (blood 
chemistry, hematology, coagulation panel, and biomarkers), 
calculation of partial Mayo score for subjects with IBD, serum 
pregnancy test (for females of childbearing potential), urine drug test 
and review of adverse events ( AEs) related to screening procedures 
and concomitant medications (CMs ). 
After the screening period, visits will occur at Baseline/Day 1 and at 
Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12. At minimum, vital signs, symptom-driven 
PE, safety laboratory tests (blood chemistry, hematology, and 
coagulation panel), calculation of partial Mayo score for subjects with 
IBD and review of adverse events and concomitant medications will 
be done at every visit. 
PPD 
Eligible subjects will be randomized to one of three treatment groups 
of the Blinded Study Phase. Prior to initial dosing, required 
Baseline/Day 1 assessments will be performed and will include 
symptom-driven PE, vital signs, laboratory assessments, pregnancy 
tests (for females of child-bearing potential), urine, blood, and stool 
collection for biomarker assessments, pruritus assessments and

Criteria for 
Evaluation:
Safety:
The primary endpoint is the safety of GS-9674 in subjects with PSC
without cirrhosis.
Safety will be assessed during the study through the reporting of AEs, 
and by clinical laboratory tests and vital sign assessments at various 
time points during the study. Concomitant medication usage will also 
be assessed throughout the study.
An independent, external Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) that 
consists of two hepatologists and a PhD statistician will convene once 
20 subjects have been randomized and every 3 to 4 months thereafter 
to monitor the study for safety events in the Blinded Study Phase and 
every 6 months in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc 
basis if there are at least 3 similar Grade ≥ 3 serious, treatment related 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 
observed in the study. In the event of two similar treatment-related 
Grade 4 CTCAE events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, 
the DMC will review the data and advise the sponsor regarding 
stopping or continuing the study.
Efficacy:
Efficacy will be assessed through a number of exploratory endpoints. 
These exploratory endpoints are described in Section 8.1.3.
Pharmacokinetic and 
Pharmacodynamic:
Plasma concentrations of GS-9674, GS-716070 (metabolite of 
GS-9674), and other metabolites as appropriate, will be determined 
for PK analyses as applicable. Plasma or serum concentrations of 
FGF19, C4, and bile acids will be determined as applicable for PD 
analyses.

INTRODUCTION
1.1.
Background
Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic biliary disease of unknown etiology 
characterized by a fibrosing cholangitis that leads to inflammation, cholestasis and cirrhosis. The 
overall incidence of PSC is 0.77 per 100,000 person-years, with a median age at diagnosis of 
41 years and 2-to-1 male to female predominance {Molodecky et al 2011}. PSC is highly 
associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), typically ulcerative colitis (UC) with up to 
90% of PSC patients having associated IBD and conversely, PSC develops in approximately 8% 
of all IBD patients {Saich et al 2008}. There are approximately 30,000-45,000 patients with PSC 
in the United States, making it an orphan disease. PSC affects less than 1.6 in 10,000 people in 
the European Union (EU), equivalent to a total of fewer than 82,000 people. 
PSC is a progressive disease that leads to cirrhosis of the liver. The clinical presentation of PSC 
is variable, and ranges from asymptomatic disease with mild elevations in alkaline phosphatase 
(ALP) and transaminases to more rapidly progressive, symptomatic disease in 15-30% of all 
patients. In addition to complications related to cirrhosis and portal hypertension, patients with 
PSC are prone to repeated episodes of bacterial cholangitis, pruritus, and are at high risk for 
cholangiocarcinoma. Specifically, the lifetime risk of cholangiocarcinoma in patients with PSC 
is 10-15%, a rate 160-fold that of the general population {Saich et al 2008}. Mortality from PSC 
is estimated to be 35% over 10 years from diagnosis {Kornfeld et al 1997}.
There are no approved therapies for PSC. Medical therapy with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) 
may improve liver biochemistry, but has no impact on symptoms or clinical outcomes {Triantos 
et al 2011}. Immunosuppressive therapy has also been ineffective {Lindor et al 2015}. Episodes 
of ascending cholangitis are managed supportively with antibiotics in conjunction with 
therapeutic drainage if necessary. Liver transplantation is the only therapeutic option currently 
available to patients with PSC. Outcomes of transplantation are generally favorable (five-year 
survival ~85%), but the disease recurs post-transplant in up to 25% of patients {Graziadei et al 
1999}.
The etiology of PSC is unknown. As noted above, there is a strong association with IBD and 
genome-wide association studies (GWAS) indicate moderate genetic associations with PSC. The 
strongest associations are in the HLA complex on chromosome 6p21 with weaker associations at 
loci known to be associated with IBD, chromosome 3p21, 2q35 and the GPC5/GPC6 region on 
chromosome 13q31 {Karlsen et al 2010}. Several hypotheses as to the underlying cause of the 
disease have been proposed including aberrant homing of T cells to the bile ducts, autoimmunity, 
bile acid toxicity, and gut bacterial translocation leading to fibrosing cholangitis, and subsequent 
cholestasis and hepatotoxicity.

1.2.1.
General Information
GS-9674 is a potent agonist of Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) whose activity in intestinal 
epithelial cells results in the release of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19). FGF19 is an 
endocrine peptide which drives a signaling cascade to decrease hepatic lipogenesis, 
gluconeogenesis, triglyceride accumulation, and bile acid synthesis.

1.2.2.
Nonclinical Toxicology
The nonclinical toxicity profile of GS-9674 has been assessed in mice and cynomolgus monkeys 
administered GS-9674 orally for up to 26 and 13 weeks, respectively. GS-9674-related effects 
were primarily limited to non-adverse findings in the liver for both species that are likely related 
to the pharmacology of the compound. Mild increases in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and 
liver weights were observed in the 4 week and chronic (26 or 13 weeks) studies. In the 4-week 
studies and 26-week mouse study, these findings were associated with hepatocellular 
hypertrophy (both species) and minimal oval cell hyperplasia (monkeys). In the chronic monkey 
study, there were no correlating histological changes in the liver after 13 weeks of dosing. The 
above findings were observed at ≥100 mg/kg/day after 4 weeks of dosing and at all doses (≥ 20 
mg/kg/day) after 26 weeks of dosing in mice. In monkeys, the above findings were observed at 
doses of 300 mg/kg/day after both 4 and 13 weeks of dosing. The decreases in cholesterol 
(≥60 mg/kg/day) and triglycerides (≥100 mg/kg/day) as well as increased albumin 
(≥60 mg/kg/day) observed in mice after 4 and/or 26 weeks of dosing as well as the decrease in 
serum bile acids (300 mg/kg/day) in monkeys after 13 weeks of dosing are also likely to be 
related to the pharmacology of GS-9674. Other minimal to mild, non-adverse findings observed 
after 13 or 26 weeks of dosing in monkeys or mice, respectively, that were considered GS-9674-
related included decreased red blood cell parameters (mouse; ≥20 mg/kg/day), increased 
platelets (mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day), shortened activated partial thromboplastin time (monkey; 
300 mg/kg/day), and increased phosphorus (mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day). All findings observed 
in monkeys after 13 weeks of dosing had resolved at the end of the 4-week recovery period. The 
no-observed-adverse effect levels (NOAEL) in mice after 26 weeks of dosing and in monkeys 
after 13 weeks of dosing were 60 and 300 mg/kg/day, respectively. 
Preliminary steady-state PK data from Cohort 5 (administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food) 
in the ongoing Phase 1 study of GS-9674 (GS-US-402-1851, included in IB, Ed 02) indicate
adequate safety margins based on GS-9674 exposures at the nonclinical NOAEL doses in mouse 
and cynomolgus monkey (Table 1-1).

1.2.3.
Nonclinical Pharmacology
GS-9674 is a potent and selective agonist of FXR. This conclusion is supported by the following 
data: 1) modeling demonstrated an interaction of GS-9674 with the binding domain of FXR/
Retinoid X receptor (RXR) consistent with agonist activity, 2) GS-9674 induced an agonist 
response in a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) biochemical 
assay with an EC50 of 16 nM, which was comparable to that of other known FXR agonists, and 
3) GS-9674 did not activate the structurally similar bile acid receptor TGR5, did not activate 
other nuclear hormone receptors, and did not bind to a panel of other off-target receptors and 
enzymes.
The cellular potency of GS-9674 to activate FXR-mediated transcription was characterized using 
a firefly luciferase reporter gene engineered under the control of a FXR/RXR response element 
(PC-402-2012). GS-9674 caused complete FXR activation with an EC50 value of 43 nM, which 
was more potent than chenodeoxycholic acid (EC50 of 1770 nM).
Oral dose-ranging experiments in male cynomolgus monkeys demonstrated maximal increases in 
plasma FGF19 at a dose of 5 mg/kg (PC-402-2016). In addition, the oral administration of 
GS-9674 (30 mg/kg) to cynomolgus monkeys directly activated intestinal FXR, as measured by 
the expression of FXR-target genes in the ileum (15-fold increase in FGF19 mRNA, and a 2-fold 
increase in organic solute transporter (OSTα and OSTβ mRNA) (PC-402-2005).
The effects of GS-9674 on FGF19 levels were compared in cynomolgus monkeys following both 
oral and intravenous (IV) administration (PC-402-2016). Despite greater exposures following IV 
administration, only the oral administration of GS-9674 increased circulating FGF19 levels. 
These data suggest that intestinal FXR agonism by GS-9674 causes FGF19 production, whereas 
low systemic free drug concentrations limit effects following IV administration of GS-9674.
GS-9674 was evaluated in a choline-deficient high fat diet/NaNO2 rat model of liver fibrosis 
(PC-402-2015). This in vivo model utilized “2 hits” to mimic the metabolic and oxidative stress 
components of NASH disease in humans {Nakamoto et al 2009}, {Murakami et al 2013}. Treatment

with GS-9674 dose-dependently reduced both biochemical and histological measures of liver 
fibrosis in this model. 
Safety pharmacology studies have been conducted to examine the potential effects ofGS-9674 
on the cardiovascular (CV), respiratory, and central nervous system (CNS) systems. There were 
no GS-9674-related effects on the CNS or respiratory system in mice administered up to 
600 mg/kg. In addition, there was no significant human ether-a-go-go-related gene inhibition at 
concentrations up to 100 J..LM or GS-9674-related effects on the CV system in monkeys 
administered up to 300 mg/kg. 
Overall, the results from these pharmacology studies demonstrate that GS-9674 is a potent and 
selective agonist of intestinal FXR with the potential to benefit patients with PSC by inducing 
FGF19 production and reducing bile acid levels.

. Low, 
limiting 
The low systemic clearance (CL) of GS-9674 in rats, dogs and monkeys was considerably lower 
than the predicted hepatic clearance based on in vitro studies with hepatocytes. This discrepancy 
is most likely a result of protein-restricted clearance in vivo due to the very high plasma protein 
binding(> 99.6%) across species. The volume of distribution (V ss) ofGS-9674 was consistent 
with extracellular fluid (ranging from 0.16-0.21 Llkg) in rats, dogs, and monkeys. 
After oral dosing to albino and pigmented mice, e
4C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity was 
distributed to most of the tissues, with the highest maximum concentrations of radioactivity 
determined in organs of absorption and excretion. Generally similar distribution patterns and 
tissue concentrations of e4C]GS-9674-derived radioactivity were observed in albino and 
pigmented mice with no observed binding to melanin. In both strains, no quantifiable 
radioactivity was detected in brain, suggesting [14C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity did not cross 
the blood-brain barrier. Fecal elimination was a predominant route of elimination of [14C] 
GS-9674-derived radioactivity in both mice (85.7% and 5.45% recovered in feces and urine, 
respectively) and monkeys (78.2% and 69.7% recovered in feces in intact and bile duct 
cannulated animals) likely representing drug not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. 
Approximately 6% of the administered radioactivity was excreted in bile and urine in monkeys. 
Radiolabeled material was primarily excreted within the first 48 hours. 
GS-9674 undergoes oxidative metabolism in human hepatocytes. Comparison of metabolism in 
hepatocytes from mice, rats, dogs, monkeys, and humans did not identify any metabolites unique 
to humans, supporting the selection of mice and monkeys for the assessment of the toxicology of 
GS-9674. Of the recombinant human CYP isozymes tested, CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP2C19 
were shown to metabolize GS-9674. Potent inhibitors ofthese CYPs therefore may affect 
metabolism ofGS-9674. GS-9674 had little inhibitory effect on the activities ofCYP1A2,

CYP2B6, CYP2C19 or CYP2D6 (IC50 > 25 μM). For CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP3A, IC50
values of 2.4 to 13.6 μM were obtained but GS-9674 was not a mechanism-based inhibitor of 
these enzymes. GS-9674 showed moderate inhibition of human UGT1A1, sodium-taurocholate 
cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), and bile salt export pump (IC50 2.8-7.7 μM). GS-9674 
inhibited human OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1 with IC50 values of 0.68, 0.41, and 
0.21 μM, respectively. GS-9674 therefore has the potential to affect hepatic/intestinal uptake of 
OATP substrates or metabolism of CYP2C8, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 substrates when its 
concentrations are sufficiently high. However, low solubility, high protein binding (> 99.98%) 
and low systemic levels reduce the potential for GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions via 
inhibition of metabolic enzymes and transporters.
GS-9674 was a substrate for efflux transporters P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance 
protein, as well as the uptake transporters OATP1B1, 1B3, and 2B1, and NTCP. Inhibitors or 
genetic polymorphisms affecting the activity of these transporters may affect GS-9674 intestinal 
absorption and hepatic uptake. This was illustrated in an in vivo study in monkeys where 
pretreatment with Cyclosporin A, a known inhibitor of efflux transporters, increased the 
bioavailability of GS-9674 approximately 5-fold.
GS-9674 is highly selective for FXR over other nuclear hormone receptors in cell-based reporter 
assays, including those associated with potential for induction of human drug metabolizing 
enzymes and transporters (eg, pregnane X receptor, constitutive androstane receptor). Thus the 
liability of GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions through proteins regulated by these nuclear 
receptors is low.
1.2.5.
Clinical Trials of GS-9674
As of 23 Sept 2016, 4 Phase 1 clinical studies are ongoing (GS-US-402-1851, GS-US-402-3885, 
GS-US-402-2102, and GS-US-402-2101), and 4 Phase 2 studies in subjects with NAFLD, 
NASH, PBC, and PSC are ongoing or planned (GS-US-384-3914, GS-US-402-1852, 
GS-US-427-4024, and GS-US-428-4025, respectively). These Phase 1 and 2 studies are
described in the IB.
A brief summary of preliminary results, not included in the IB from ongoing study GS-US-402-
2102 is presented below.

subjects are planned to be enrolled.

Preliminary PK results from the following cohorts are presented below and in Table 1-2 and 
Table 1-3:

Cohort 1: Impact of OATP/MRP2/P-gp inhibition (single dose cyclosporine 600 mg: CsA) or 
OATP1B1/1B3 inhibition (single dose rifampin 600 mg: RIF) on single dose administration 
of GS-9674 100 mg with food (N=24).  Single doses of CsA or RIF significantly increased 
GS-9674 exposure (6.5- and 8.0-fold respectively), with more modest increases in 
GS-716070 exposure (3.3- and 4.9-fold respectively). These data indicate the GS-9674 is a 
sensitive substrate of hepatic OATP with intestinal P-gp playing a minimal to no role in 
GS-9674 absorption as seen by a smaller increase in GS-9674 by CsA compared to single 
dose RIF.  Based on these data, coadministration of GS-9674 with potent inhibitors of OATP 
is not recommended and moderate inhibitors of OATP should be used with caution whereas 
GS-9674 may be coadministered with P-gp inhibitors.

Cohort 2: Impact of CYP3A inhibition (multiple dose voriconazole 200 mg BID 4 days: 
VORI) and CYP2C8 inhibition (multiple dose gemfibrozil 600 mg BID 4 days: GFZ) on 
single dose administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food (N=18).  Coadministration of 
GS-9674 with VORI did not result in clinically meaningful changes in GS-9674 or 
GS-716070 exposures indicating that CYP3A plays a minimal role in the disposition of 
GS-9674 and GS-716070.  As such, GS-9674 may be coadministered with CYP3A 
inhibitors. Coadministration of GS-9674 with GFZ increased GS-9674 exposure 75% with 
reduction of GS-716070 exposure by 55% indicating that biotransformation of GS-9674 to 
GS-716070 is predominantly mediated by CYP2C8.  Based on the less than 2-fold increase 
in GS-9674 exposure, GS-9674 may be coadministered with inhibitors of CYP2C8.

Cohort 3: Impact of CYP3A/2C8/OATP/P-gp induction (multiple dose rifampin 600 mg QD 
7 days in the evening: RIF) on single dose AM administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food
(N=18).  Plasma exposure of GS-9674 and GS-716070 were substantially reduced after 
multiple dose administration of RIF indicating that GS-9674 and GS-716070 are sensitive to 
induction of OATP and CYP2C8.  As such coadministration of GS-9674 with potent or 
moderate inducers of OATP or CYP2C8 is not recommended.

Cohort 5: Impact of single dose administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food on CYP3A 
activity (single dose midazolam: MDZ) or OATP/CYP3A activity (single dose atorvastatin: 
ATV) (N=24).  GS-9674 did not alter MDZ exposure (90%CIs of the %GMR for AUC and 
Cmax were contained within the predetermined lack of effect bounds of 70-143%) indicating 
that GS-9674 is not an inhibitor of CYP3A. As such, GS-9674 may be coadministered with 
CYP3A substrates.  GS-9674 modestly increased ATV exposure (39%).  Similar increases in 
ATV exposure do not necessitate a priori dose modification as per the LIPITOR® United 
States product insert (USPI). As such, ATV may be coadministered with GS-9674.

Rationale for this Study
PSC is a disorder of unknown etiology characterized by inflammation and fibrosis of the 
intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic bile ducts that result in the impairment of bile flow (cholestasis). 
Accumulation of excess bile acids causes hepatocellular cytotoxicity that leads to progressive 
liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. In pre-clinical and clinical studies, FXR agonism has been shown to 
reduce bile acid levels via FGF19-mediated suppression of cholesterol-7-alpha-hydroxylase 
(CYP7A1), the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis {Inagaki et al 2005}, {Pellicciari et al 
2002}, {Mudaliar et al 2013}. In addition, in a murine model of fibrosis caused by administration
of a methionine choline deficient diet and sodium nitrite injections, GS-9674 has demonstrated 
an anti-fibrotic effect. Thus, GS-9674 is postulated to be beneficial in subjects with PSC.  
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 30 mg and 100 mg GS-9674 
administered with food for 12 weeks in subjects with PSC. The doses were selected based on 
short-term safety, PD and PK results from Study GS-US-402-1851 in healthy subjects. 
Across the range of GS-9674 doses evaluated (10 to 300 mg QD), doses > 30 mg provide 
comparable intestinal FXR agonism assessed by increases in plasma FGF19 exposure. Food, by 
slowing oral absorption of GS-9674, results in prolonged elevation of plasma FGF19 
concentrations. Exposure-response relationships show that changes in C4 exposure are 
negatively correlated with changes in FGF19 exposure as well as GS-9674 exposure. Based on 


GS-9674

Amendment 1

Page 26

these results, GS-9674 doses of 30 and 100 mg with food are selected for further study as they 
are expected to 1) provide enteral FXR agonism, reductions in bile acid pools, and liver 
biochemical improvements in subjects with PSC; and 2) inform regarding the impact of 
increasing systemic GS-9674 exposure on safety and efficacy.
In the Phase 1 study, GS-US-402-1851, GS-9674 was tested at doses up to 300 mg once daily for 
up to 14 days and was well-tolerated. Taken together, these data support the evaluation of 
GS-9674 30 and 100 mg in subjects with PSC.
Inclusion criteria for this study were developed in order to identify subjects with PSC who have 
persistently abnormal liver biochemistry but without cirrhosis. These subjects are at an increased 
risk of PSC-related complications including the need for liver transplantation and death. Subjects 
with clinical and histologic evidence of cirrhosis will be excluded from this study due to the 
uncertain PK and PD properties of GS-9674 to the setting of subjects with cirrhosis. Targeting 
interventions in the proposed study population will provide evidence for the safety and efficacy 
of GS-9674 in subjects at risk for progressive hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis.
1.4.
Risk/Benefit Assessment for the Study
This study will provide information on the safety and efficacy of GS-9674 for the treatment of 
patients with PSC. It should be noted that there are no currently approved therapies specifically 
for the treatment of PSC. The only therapeutic option available to PSC subjects with advanced 
liver disease is liver transplantation.
The potential benefits of GS-9674 for the treatment of PSC in the current study population 
include hypothesized improvements in hepatic injury due to reduced bile acid synthesis 
attributable to FXR agonism. Improvements in liver biochemistry, hepatic fibrogenesis, and 
potentially quality of life, would be expected to ensue based on these effects. Subjects with PSC 
randomized to the placebo control arm in the study may benefit from frequent medical 
monitoring and close assessment of their PSC and associated pathologies during the duration of 
placebo treatment. Moreover, all subjects, including those treated with placebo during the 
randomized phase, will have the opportunity to receive GS-9674 treatment during a long-term 
open-label extension phase.
In the Phase 1 study, 94 subjects have received GS-9674 in single or multiple doses (14 days) up 
to 300 mg. All treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild to moderate (Grade 1 or 
2), and overall, the rate of any adverse events (AEs) was similar between subjects treated with 
GS-9674 or placebo. The predominant toxicities were anemia, back pain, diarrhea, and headache. 
Grade 2 or 3 elevations in serum ALT were seen in five (5%) GS-9674 treated subjects and one 
(4%) placebo treated subject. Grade 2 or 3 ALT elevations that occurred on-treatment were 
observed in 2/23 (9%) BID treated subjects, but none of the 71 subjects who received once daily 
(QD) GS-9674 dosing. In these cases, elevations in serum bilirubin or prolongation of INR were 
not observed, serum ALT levels normalized upon treatment cessation, and no evidence of drug 
hypersensitivity syndrome (e.g., fever, rash, eosinophilia) was noted. In nonclinical studies, 
effects on the liver have been limited to non-adverse mild increases in alkaline phosphatase and 
liver weights and minimal hepatocellular hypertrophy that are likely a pharmacological response

to FXR agonism. There were no elevations in liver transaminases or changes in liver pathology 
(degeneration/necrosis) in the nonclinical studies to suggest direct cellular damage. In order to 
mitigate the potential risk of hepatotoxicity with GS-9674, QD dosing of GS-9674 has been 
chosen for this study. Moreover, close monitoring of liver biochemistry values will be performed 
and parameters for discontinuation of the study drugs due to liver test abnormalities have been 
defined (see Section 7.5, Toxicity Management: Observation for Drug-Induced Liver Injury) and 
will be closely followed.
Additional risks to study subjects include those attributable to study participation in general, 
including risks associated with frequent clinic visits and laboratory blood draws, and the 
associated pain and discomfort of phlebotomy. Strategies to mitigate these risks include close 
monitoring of lab values as well as AEs. Parameters for discontinuation of the study drugs due to 
AEs and non-hepatic laboratory abnormalities are also defined and will be closely followed.
Overall, the nonclinical and limited preliminary clinical data show a positive benefit/risk ratio in 
support of the study in subjects with PSC.

STUDY DESIGN
3.1.
Study Design
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety, 
tolerability, and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects with PSC without cirrhosis.
The study will consist of 2 phases, a Blinded Study Phase and an OLE Phase. 
Blinded Study Phase: Includes a 4-week screening period, 12-weeks of blinded treatment, and a 
Blinded Study Phase Follow up visit 4 weeks after completion of blinded treatment. 
Subjects completing the Blinded Study Phase without permanently discontinuing study drug will 
be eligible to participate in the OLE Phase of the study.
OLE Phase: Includes a 96-week OLE and an OLE Phase follow-up visit 4 weeks after 
completion of open label treatment.
The overall study design is presented graphically in Figure 3-1.

Treatment Plan and Regimen
Subjects meeting the study’s entry criteria will be randomly assigned in a 2:2:1 ratio to 1 of 3 
different treatment groups during the Blinded Study Phase as shown in Figure 3-1. 
Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence of UDCA use.
Study drug(s) will be administered for a total of 12 weeks from the Baseline/Day 1 visit during 
the Blinded Study Phase and 96 weeks during the OLE Phase. During the OLE Phase subjects 
will begin open-label treatment with GS-9674 (100 mg po daily). The dose of GS-9674 may be 
reduced from 100 mg to 30 mg (or subsequently increased back to 100 mg) at the PI’s discretion 
with the approval of the MM, as required.
Subjects will be unblinded to their Blinded Study Phase treatment assignment after the primary 
analysis has been completed, approximately 6 weeks after all subjects have completed the 
Blinded Study Phase.
Dosage and administration of the study drug(s) and reference product are described in 
Section 5.3.
3.3.
Biomarker Testing
3.3.1.
Biomarker Samples to Address the Study Objectives:
Biological specimens will be collected in this study as per the study procedures table
(Appendix 2) and will be used to evaluate the association of exploratory systemic biomarkers 
with study drug response, including efficacy and/or adverse events and to increase knowledge 
and understanding of the biology of PSC or related diseases such as Primary Biliary Cholangitis 
(PBC) and/or the validation of a companion diagnostic for PSC. Because biomarker science is a 
rapidly evolving area of investigation, and adverse events in particular are difficult to predict, it 
is not possible to specify prospectively all tests that will be done on the specimens provided.  The 
testing outlined is based upon the current state of scientific knowledge. It may be modified 
during or after the end of the study to remove tests no longer indicated and/or to add new tests 
based upon the growing state of art knowledge. Samples will be destroyed no later than 15 years 
after the end of the study.
Biomarker testing can include biomarkers that monitor auto-antibodies characteristic of PSC, and 
markers of bone metabolism. In addition biomarkers such as biochemicals, biological 
macromolecules, naturally occurring metabolites, and biomarkers of FXR activity (e.g. FGF19, 
C4 and bile acids) can also be determined.

Randomization, Blinding and Treatment Codes 
Final 
Amendment 1 
An Interactive Web Response System (IWRS) will be used for centralized randomization and 
treatment assignment. Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence ofUDCA use. 
Investigative site personnel will obtain the subject's identification number and study drug 
assignment from the IWRS. Subjects and all personnel directly involved in the conduct of the 
study will be blinded to treatment assignment. 
Study drug(s) will be dispensed by the study pharmacist, or designee, in a blinded fashion to the 
subjects. 
5.1.1. 
Procedures for Breaking Treatment Codes 
In the event of a medical emergency where breaking the blind is required to provide medical care 
to the subject, the investigator may obtain treatment assignment directly from the IWRS system 
for that subject (refer to the Study Reference Binder for IWRS unblinding instructions). Gilead 
recommends but does not require that the investigator contact the Gilead medical monitor before 
breaking the blind. Treatment assignment should remain blinded unless that knowledge is 
necessary to determine subject emergency medical care. The rationale for unblinding must be 
clearly explained in source documentation and on the case report form/ electronic case report 
form ( eCRF), along with the date on which the treatment assignment was obtained. The 
investigator is requested to contact the Gilead medical monitor promptly in case of any treatment 
unblinding. 
Blinding of study treatment is critical to the integrity of this clinical trial and therefore, if a 
subject's treatment assignment is disclosed to the investigator, the subject will have study 
treatment discontinued. All subjects will be followed until study completion unless consent to do 
so is specifically withdrawn by the subject. 
Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) may independently unblind cases for expedited 
reporting of suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs ).

of25°C (77°F); excursions are permitted between 15°C and 30°C (59°F and 86°F). Storage 
conditions are specified on the label. 
Until dispensed to the subjects, all bottles of study drugs should be stored in a securely locked 
area, accessible only to authorized site personnel. To ensure the stability and proper 
identification, study drug(s) should not be stored in a container other than the container in which 
they were supplied. Consideration should be given to handling, preparation, and disposal through 
measures that minimize drug contact with the body. Appropriate precautions should be followed 
to avoid direct eye contact or exposure when handling GS-9674 tablets and PTM GS-9674 
tablets. 
5.3. 
Dosage and Administration of GS-967 4/PTM GS-967 4

During the OLE Phase of the study, subjects will be provided with 100 mg bottles of GS-9674
only, unless reassigned to the 30 mg dose due to tolerability. The dose of GS-9674 may be 
reduced from 100 mg to 30 mg (or subsequently increased back to 100 mg) at the PI’s discretion 
with the approval of the MM, as required.
The study drug dose should be taken at approximately the same time each day with food.
A dose will be considered missed if the subject cannot take the dose within 12 hours of their 
regular dosing time. If a subject misses a dose, the subject should take their next dose at the 
regular dosing time.
5.4.
Prior and Concomitant Medications
Concomitant use of certain medications or herbal/natural supplements with study drug may result 
in PK and/or PD interactions resulting in increases or decreases in exposure of study drug(s) or 
these medications. 
Concomitant medications taken within 28 days of screening through the follow-up visit need to 
be recorded in the source documents and electronic Case Report Forms (eCRFs).
Subjects with co-morbid diseases requiring medication(s) must be taking the medication without 
a change in dose within 28 days of Baseline/Day 1.
GS-9674 increased atorvastatin exposure (39%) which does not necessitate a priori dose 
modification based on the LIPITOR USPI.  Subjects taking atorvastatin with GS-9674 should be 
monitored as per label recommendations.
5.5.
Prohibited Medications
The following medications are prohibited from 28 days prior to Baseline/Day 1 up to and 
including the day of the last dose of study drug:


STUDY PROCEDURES
The study procedures to be conducted for each subject randomized in the study are presented in 
tabular form in Appendix 2 and described in the text that follows. Additional information is 
provided in Study Reference Binder.
The investigator must document any deviation from protocol procedures and notify the sponsor 
or contract research organization (CRO).
6.1.
Subject Randomization and Treatment Assignment
It is the responsibility of the investigator to ensure that subjects are eligible to participate in the 
study prior to randomization and throughout the study. 
Documentation of the personally signed and dated informed consent of each subject, using the 
study-specific ICF, is required before initiating the screening process.
After written informed consent has been obtained and eligibility to participate established, 
investigative site personnel will obtain the subject’s identification number and study drug 
assignment from the interactive web response system (IWRS).
6.2.
Pretreatment Assessments-Screening Visit
Subjects will be screened within 4 weeks before randomization to determine eligibility for 
participation in the study. The screening period may be extended under special circumstances 
with the explicit approval of the Medical Monitor. 
Subjects who fail to meet eligibility criteria may be rescreened once if there is a reasonable 
expectation that the subject will meet eligibility criteria after repeat screening. 
Screening labs may be repeated once within the screening period, prior to administration of study 
drug to rule out laboratory error, if any. This will be done at the discretion of the investigator.
The following will be performed and documented at Screening:

Obtain written informed consent before initiation of any screening procedures

Review and record whether the subject meets inclusion and exclusion criteria

Obtain screening number from IWRS

Obtain medical history 


The focus of a symptom-driven physical examination will be determined by the investigator 
based on subject complaint. For example if a subject complains of a cough a respiratory exam 
should be performed. If consistent with pneumonia (e.g. rales or crackles are identified) then an 
AE would be documented.
Height and body weight will be collected at specified time points.
6.12.4.
Quality of Life (QoL) Measures and Pruritus Assessments
It is recommended that these questionnaires be completed prior to the clinical and laboratory 
assessments. The subject should read the questionnaires by himself/herself and record the 
answers by himself/herself.
6.12.4.1.
Short Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey
The SF-36 Health Survey asks 36 questions to measure functional health and well-being from the 
subject’s point of view and consists of eight health domains (physical functioning, role-physical, 
bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health). These 
health domain scales contribute to the physical health and mental health summary measures. 
6.12.4.2.
Partial Mayo Score
The partial Mayo score is a survey for the assessment of IBD that considers stool frequency and 
rectal bleeding. Subjects with history of IBD will receive a diary with instructions to document 
stool frequency and rectal bleeding. Subjects should be instructed to update this diary on a daily 
basis and should bring this diary back to the site at each visit for partial Mayo Score calculation. 
Any subject who develops a ≥2 point increase in partial Mayo Score should be instructed to 
contact the site to report the change.
6.12.4.3.
PSC Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) Measure
The PSC PRO addresses the severity of common, everyday symptoms of PSC (e.g. pruritus, 
fatigue, right upper quadrant abdominal discomfort) and their functional impact (e.g. on physical 
function, activities of daily living, work productivity, etc.). 
6.12.4.4.
Primary Biliary Cirrhosis-40 (PBC-40) Questionnaire
The PBC-40 is a health-related QoL questionnaire that includes 40 questions regarding PBC-
related symptoms including itch, fatigue, cognition, and social and emotional assessments
symptoms that are also relevant to the PSC population.  
6.12.4.5.
Pruritus Visual Analog Scale (VAS) measure
The Pruritus VAS is a tool that uses a numeric scale for measuring the intensity of pruritus.

5D-Itch Questionnaire
The 5D- Itch questionnaire is a validated survey for the assessment of the severity of pruritus in 
patients with chronic pruritus due to dermatological and non-dermatological disorders. 
6.12.5.
Electrocardiogram
Standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) assessments will be performed. The Investigator will 
review the ECGs for any clinically significant abnormalities to ensure subject safety. Abnormal 
ECG findings that are considered clinically significant by the Investigator and meet the 
definition of an AE should be reported and recorded in the AE eCRF page.
6.12.6.
FibroScan® 
Liver stiffness will be assessed by FibroScan®. It is required that each subject’s FibroScan®
assessments be done with the same type of probe at each study visit. If FibroScan® is not 
available at a site the test may be omitted.
Please refer to the Study Reference Binder for instructions on FibroScan® measurements.
6.12.7
Magnetic Resonance Elastography
Liver stiffness will be assessed by MRE. It is recommended that each subject’s MRE assessment 
is performed using the same procedure for each study visit.  If MRE is not available at the site, 
the procedure may be omitted.
Please refer to the Study Reference Binder for instruction on MRE imaging guidelines. 
6.12.8
Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography
Imaging of the biliary and pancreatic ducts will be performed by MRCP.  The MRCP images 
will be sent to a central imaging center.  It is recommended that each subject’s MRCP 
assessment is performed using the same procedure for each study visit.  
6.13.
End of Study
End of study is defined as when the last patient last visit (LPLV) for the OLE follow-up visit 
occurs 4 weeks after completing OLE treatment or the OLE ET follow-up visit, whichever 
occurs later.
6.13.1.
Sample Storage
Residual biological samples from all visits will be frozen and stored. These stored samples may 
be used by Gilead or our research partners to help answer questions about the study drug, PSC 
and its associated conditions, or clinical laboratory testing to provide additional safety data. No 
human genetic testing will be performed without express consent of the study subjects. At the 
conclusion of this study, these samples may be retained in storage for Gilead for a period of up to 
15 years.

ADVERSE EVENTS AND TOXICITY MANAGEMENT
7.1.
Definitions of Adverse Events, Adverse Reactions, and Serious Adverse 
Events
7.1.1.
Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study subject 
administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to 
the medicinal product. AEs may also include pre- or post-treatment complications that occur as a 
result of protocol specified procedures, overdose, drug abuse/misuse reports, or occupational 
exposure. Preexisting events that increase in severity or change in nature during or as a 
consequence of participation in the clinical study will also be considered AEs.
An AE does not include the following:

Medical or surgical procedures such as surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, and transfusion.
The condition that led to the procedure may be an adverse event and must be reported

Pre-existing diseases, conditions, or laboratory abnormalities present or detected before the 
Screening visit that do not worsen

Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (eg., hospitalization for 
elective surgery, social and/or convenience admissions)

Overdose without clinical sequelae (see Section 7.6.1)

Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date 
before the consent form is signed and not related to a protocol-associated procedure is not an 
AE. It is considered to be pre-existing and should be documented on the medical history 
CRF.
7.1.2.
Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following:

Death

Life-threatening (Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.)

In-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 57
30 September 2016

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

A congenital anomaly/birth defect

A medically important event or reaction: such events may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the subject or may 
require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs. Medical and 
scientific judgment must be exercised to determine whether such an event is a reportable 
under expedited reporting rules. Examples of medically important events include intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; and development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse. For the avoidance of doubt, infections resulting from contaminated medicinal 
product will be considered a medically important event and subject to expedited reporting 
requirements.
7.1.3.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance are not recorded as AEs or SAEs. 
However, laboratory abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) that 
require medical or surgical intervention or lead to study drug interruption, modification, or 
discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, 
laboratory or other abnormal assessments (eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are 
associated with signs and/or symptoms must be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the 
definition of an AE or SAE as described in Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. If the laboratory 
abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the syndrome or diagnosis (eg, anemia), not the 
laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
For specific information on handling of clinical laboratory abnormalities in this study, please 
refer to (Section 7.5).
7.2.
Assessment of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing AEs and SAEs for 
causality and severity, and for final review and confirmation of accuracy of event information 
and assessments.
7.2.1.
Assessment of Causality for Study Drugs and Procedures
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing the relationship to 
GS-9674 therapy using clinical judgment and the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the GS-9674. For 
SAEs, an alternative causality must be provided (eg, pre-existing condition, underlying 
disease, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medication).


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 58
30 September 2016

Yes: There is reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the 
investigational medicinal product.
It should be emphasized that ineffective treatment should not be considered as causally related in 
the context of adverse event reporting. 
The relationship to study procedures (eg, invasive procedures such as venipuncture or biopsy) 
should be assessed using the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study procedure.

Yes: The adverse event occurred as a result of protocol procedures (eg., venipuncture)
7.2.2.
Assessment of Severity
The severity grading of AEs will be assessed as Grade 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 according to the 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03, which can be found 
at http://evs.nci.nih.gov/ftp1/CTCAE/CTCAE_4.03_2010-06-14_QuickReference_8.5x11.pdf
(Appendix 3).
For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the 
clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement 
with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.
The distinction between the seriousness and the severity of an adverse event should be noted. 
Severe is a measure of intensity; thus, a severe reaction is not necessarily a serious reaction. For 
example, a headache may be severe in intensity, but would not be classified as serious unless it 
met one of the criteria for serious events listed above.
7.3.
Investigator Requirements and Instructions for Reporting Adverse Events 
and Serious Adverse Events to Gilead
Requirements for collection prior to study drug initiation:
After informed consent, but prior to initiation of study medication, the following types of events 
should be reported on the case report form (eCRF): all SAEs and adverse events related to 
protocol-mandated procedures.
Adverse Events
Following initiation of study medication, collect all AEs, regardless of cause or relationship, 
until 30 days after last administration of GS-9674; AEs must be reported to the eCRF database as 
instructed.
All AEs should be followed up until resolution or until the adverse event is stable, if possible. 
Gilead Sciences may request that certain AEs be followed beyond the protocol defined follow up 
period.

Serious Adverse Events
All SAEs, regardless of cause or relationship, that occurs after the subject first consents to 
participate in the study (ie, signing the informed consent) and throughout the duration of the 
study, including the protocol-required post treatment follow-up period, must be reported to the 
eCRF database and Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) as instructed. This also 
includes any SAEs resulting from protocol-associated procedures performed after informed 
consent is signed.
Any SAEs and deaths that occur after the post treatment follow-up visit and within 30 days of 
the last dose of study drug, regardless of causality, should also be reported. 
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek SAEs after the protocol defined follow up period; 
however, if the investigator learns of any SAEs that occur after study participation has concluded 
and the event is deemed relevant to the use of IMP, he/she should promptly document and report 
the event to Gilead DSPH.

All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the eCRF database within the timelines outlined in the 
eCRF completion guideline. 
Electronic Serious Adverse Event (eSAE) Reporting Process

Site personnel record all SAE data in the eCRF database and from there transmit the SAE 
information to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event. 
Detailed instructions can be found in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If for any reason it is not possible to record the SAE information electronically, ie, the eCRF 
database is not functioning, record the SAE on the paper serious adverse event reporting 
form and submit within 24 hours to:
Gilead DSPH
Email:
Safety_FC@gilead.com
Fax:
+1 650-522-5477

As soon as it is possible to do so, any SAE reported via paper must be transcribed into the 
eCRF Database according to instructions in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If an SAE has been reported via a paper form because the eCRF database has been locked, no 
further action is necessary.

For fatal or life-threatening events, copies of hospital case reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents are also to be submitted by e-mail or fax when requested and applicable. 
Transmission of such documents should occur without personal subject identification, 
maintaining the traceability of a document to the subject identifiers.

Additional information may be requested to ensure the timely completion of accurate safety 
reports.

medication section of the subject’s eCRF and the event description section of the SAE form.
7.4.
Gilead Reporting Requirements
Depending on relevant local legislation or regulations, including the applicable US FDA Code of 
Federal Regulations, the EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) and relevant updates, and 
other country-specific legislation or regulations, Gilead may be required to expedite to 
worldwide regulatory agencies reports of SAEs, serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs), or 
suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs). In accordance with the EU Clinical 
Trials Directive (2001/20/EC), Gilead or a specified designee will notify worldwide regulatory 
agencies and the relevant IEC in concerned Member States of applicable SUSARs as outlined in 
current regulations.
Assessment of expectedness for SAEs will be determined by Gilead using reference safety 
information specified in the investigator’s brochure or relevant local label as applicable. 
All investigators will receive a safety letter notifying them of relevant SUSAR reports associated 
with any study drug. The investigator should notify the IRB or IEC of SUSAR reports as soon as 
is practical, where this is required by local regulatory agencies, and in accordance with the local 
institutional policy.
To minimize the possibility of exposing study subjects to unusual risk, the safety information 
from this study will also be reviewed periodically by an independent Data Monitoring 
Committee (DMC). The DMC may have access to partially blinded or unblinded data and will 
make recommendations regarding the study according to the DMC charter. See Section 8.12 for
additional details regarding the DMC.
7.5.
Toxicity Management 
7.5.1.
PSC Specific Study Stopping Rule:
Any subject without a history of IBD, who develops new onset IBD while participating in the 
study, must be discontinued from the study. Any subject with a history of IBD who experiences 
at least a 2-point increase in the partial Mayo score while in the study must be discontinued from 
the study. Also, any subject who experiences ≥ 2 episodes of ascending cholangitis in a 6-month 
period, clinical evidence of hepatic decompensation (e.g., ascites, variceal hemorrhage, or 
hepatic encephalopathy), and/or the occurrence of cholangiocarcinoma or hepatocellular 
carcinoma must also be discontinued from the study.
7.5.2.
Observation for Drug Induced Liver Injury (DILI):
Although subjects randomized in this study will have baseline liver disease, their hepatic 
function should not be significantly impaired. However, at baseline, some may have liver 
biochemistry levels above the upper limit of normal (ULN). Baseline values for liver tests

(ALT, AST, total bilirubin, and ALP) will be determined by averaging the values obtained at 
screening and Baseline/Day 1.  
For subjects with ALT and AST below ULN at study start, close observation for DILI (as 
described below) will be performed in subjects with any of the following criteria (all labs 
confirmed by repeat testing):

ALT or AST > 3 x ULN 

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN

Alkaline phosphatase > 3 x ULN

INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%)
For subjects with ALT or AST between 1 and 10 x ULN at study start, close observation for 
DILI (as described below) will be performed in subjects with any of the following criteria (all 
labs confirmed by repeat testing):

ALT or AST > 2 x baseline at any time

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN  

Alkaline phosphatase > 3 x ULN

INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%).  
Close observation includes:

Repeating liver biochemistries (ALT, AST, ALP, total bilirubin, INR) and obtaining creatine 
phosphokinase (CPK) levels within 48 hours

Obtaining a more detailed history of symptoms and prior or concurrent disease

Obtaining a history of concomitant drug use (including nonprescription medications and 
herbal and dietary supplement preparations), alcohol use, recreational drug use, and special 
diets

Obtaining a history of exposure to environmental chemical agents


Ruling out other causes of liver disease as needed (obtain viral hepatitis panel, imaging for 
evaluation of biliary tract disease, etc. if required in the opinion of the primary investigator)

Continue to monitor liver biochemistries twice weekly. Frequency can decrease to once a 
week or less if abnormalities stabilize or study drug has been discontinued and subject is 
asymptomatic
During a period of close observation, study drug can be continued, if desired, at the discretion of 
the Gilead Medical Monitor and the principal investigator during the DILI evaluation. 
However, for all subjects, study drug should be withheld if any of the following criteria are met:

ALT or AST > 5 x baseline

ALT or AST >10 x ULN 

ALT or AST >3 x baseline with 1 or more of the following:
Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or 1.5 x baseline
INR > 1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)
Appearance of clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, 
consistent with drug-induced hepatotoxicity

ALT or AST > baseline with any 2 or more of the following:
Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or 1.5 x baseline
INR >1.5 (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)
Appearance of clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, 
consistent with drug-induced hepatotoxicity
AND

No other cause for the combination of laboratory abnormalities is immediately apparent (e.g. 
prolonged INR with warfarin use) important potential causes or contributors to abnormal 
AST/ALT or total bilirubin values include, but are not limited to:
— Obstructive gall bladder or bile duct disease
— Viral or alcoholic hepatitis (e.g. hepatitis A/B/C/D/E, Epstein-Barr virus, 
cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella)
— Autoimmune hepatitis
— Concomitant administration of other hepatotoxins, including excessive doses of 
acetaminophen, drugs that inhibit bilirubin glucuronidation (e.g. indinavir, atazanavir, 
irinotecan), or herbal or dietary supplements

— Hypoxic or ischemic hepatopathy or congestive hepatopathy in association with 
significant right-sided heart failure
— Wilson disease
— Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
— Progression of malignancy involving the liver (note that metastatic disease to the liver, by 
itself, should not be used as an explanation for significant AST/ALT elevations)
If study drugs are withheld, they may be reintroduced with approval from the Medical Monitor if 
another etiology for elevated liver tests is present. Study drug must be discontinued if close 
monitoring of a patient for DILI is not possible or if total bilirubin, ALT or AST elevation recurs 
following re-challenge with study drug.
Treatment-emergent toxicities will be noted by the Investigator and brought to the attention of 
the Medical Monitor. Whether or not considered treatment-related, all subjects experiencing AEs 
must be monitored periodically until symptoms subside, any abnormal laboratory values have 
resolved or returned to baseline levels or they are considered irreversible, or until there is a 
satisfactory explanation for the changes observed.

Other than in the case of the liver enzymes noted above, Grade 3 or 4 clinically significant 
laboratory AEs should be confirmed by repeat testing as soon as practical to do so, and 
preferably within 3 calendar days of receipt of the original test results.

For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of 
the clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in 
agreement with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.

Any questions regarding toxicity management should be directed to the Medical Monitor.

Special Situations Reports
7.6.1.
Definitions of Special Situations
Special situation reports include all reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, overdose, reports 
of AEs associated with product complaints, occupational exposure with an AE, pregnancy 
reports regardless of an associated AE, and AE in an infant following exposure from 
breastfeeding.  
Medication error is any unintentional error in the prescribing, dispensing, or administration of a 
medicinal product while in the control of the health care provider, subject, or consumer. 
Abuse is defined as persistent or sporadic intentional excessive use of a medicinal product by a 
subject.

Misuse is defined as any intentional and inappropriate use of a medicinal product that is not in 
accordance with the protocol instructions or the local prescribing information.
An overdose is defined as an accidental or intentional administration of a quantity of a medicinal 
product given per administration or cumulatively which is above the maximum recommended 
dose as per protocol or in the product labeling (as it applies to the daily dose of the subject in 
question). In cases of a discrepancy in drug accountability, overdose will be established only 
when it is clear that the subject has taken the excess dose(s). Overdose cannot be established 
when the subject cannot account for the discrepancy except in cases in which the investigator has 
reason to suspect that the subject has taken the additional dose(s).
Product complaint is defined as complaints arising from potential deviations in the manufacture, 
packaging, or distribution of the medicinal product.  
Occupational exposure with an AE: exposure to a medicinal product as a result of one’s 
professional or non-professional occupation.
7.6.2.
Instructions for Reporting Special Situations
7.6.2.1.
Instructions for Reporting Pregnancies
The investigator should report pregnancies in female study subjects that are identified after 
initiation of study medication and throughout the study, including the post study drug follow-up 
period, to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy report form within 24 hours of becoming aware of 
the pregnancy.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of pregnancy reporting.
The pregnancy itself is not considered an AE nor is an induced elective abortion to terminate a 
pregnancy without medical reasons.
Any premature termination of pregnancy (eg, a spontaneous abortion, an induced therapeutic 
abortion due to complications or other medical reasons) must be reported within 24 hours as an 
SAE. The underlying medical reason for this procedure should be recorded as the AE term.
A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as described in 
Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Furthermore, any SAE occurring as an adverse pregnancy outcome post 
study must be reported to Gilead DSPH.
The subject should receive appropriate monitoring and care until the conclusion of the 
pregnancy. The outcome should be reported to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy outcome report 
form. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been completed, the outcome should 
be reported directly to Gilead DSPH. Gilead DSPH contact information is as follows: Email: 
Safety_FC@gilead.com and Fax: +1 (650) 522-5477.

Refer to Appendix 4 for Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing Potential, 
and Contraceptive Requirements.
7.6.2.2.
Reporting Other Special Situations
All other special situation reports must be reported on the special situations report form and 
forwarded to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator becoming aware of the situation. 
These reports must consist of situations that involve study drug and/or Gilead concomitant 
medications, but do not apply to non-Gilead concomitant medications. 
Special situations involving non-Gilead concomitant medications does not need to be reported on 
the special situations report form; however, for special situations that result in AEs due to a non-
Gilead concomitant medication, the AE should be reported on the AE form. 
Any inappropriate use of concomitant medications prohibited by this protocol should not be 
reported as “misuse,” but may be more appropriately documented as a protocol deviation.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of special situations reporting.
All clinical sequelae in relation to these special situation reports will be reported as AEs or SAEs 
at the same time using the AE eCRF and/or the SAE report form. Details of the symptoms and 
signs, clinical management, and outcome will be reported, when available.

dose of study drug. Treatment-emergent data will be analyzed and defined as data collected from 
the first dose of study drug through the date of last dose of study drug plus 30 days. Subjects 
who received study drug other than that to which they were assigned will be analyzed according 
to the study drug received. 
8.2.1.3. 
Pharmacokinetics 
There are two pharmacokinetic analysis sets: 1) the PK analysis set which includes 
concentration data from the s · 
drawn at each visit 
The PK analysis set will include all randomized subjects who took at least one dose of study 
drug and for whom concentration data of analytes GS-9674 (and its metabolites as applicable) 
are available. The PK analysis set will be used for analyses of population PK. 
PPD 
8.2.1.4. 
Pharmacodynamics 
There are two pharmacodynamics analysis sets: 1) The PD 
is set which includes 
concentration data from the s · 
drawn at each visit 
The PD analysis set will include all randomized subjects who took at least one dose of study 
drug and for whom concentration data ofFGF19, C4, and bile acids are available. The PD 
analysis set may be used for descriptive and/or population based PD analyses as applicable. 
PD 
8.2.1.5. 
Biomarkers 
The Biomarker Analysis Set will include data from subjects in the Safety Analysis Set who have 
the necessary baseline and on-study measurements to provide interpretable results for the 
specific parameters of interest.

Analysis by Study Phase 
Final 
Amendment 1 
Result of statistical analysis for the randomized phase will be presented by treatment groups. 
Safety data from the OLE Phase will be summarized for overall subjects who roll-over into the 
OLE Phase for safety review, supporting regulatory document update or publication purposes. 
8.3. 
Data Handling Conventions 
Missing data can have an impact on the interpretation of the trial data. In general, values for 
missing data will not be imputed. 
Where appropriate, safety data for subjects that did not complete the study will be included in 
summary statistics. For example, if a subject received study medication, the subject will be 
included in a summary of adverse events according to the treatment received; otherwise, if the 
subject is not dosed then they will be excluded from the summary. If safety laboratory results for 
a subject are missing for any reason at a time point, the subject will be excluded from the 
calculation of summary statistics for that time point. If the subject is missing a pre-dose value, 
then the subject will be excluded from the calculation of summary statistics for the pre-dose 
value and the change from pre-dose values. 
Values for missing safety laboratory data and vital signs will not be imputed; however, a missing 
baseline result will be replaced with a screening result, if available. If no pre-treatment 
laboratory value is available, the baseline value will be assumed to be normal (ie, no grade 
[Grade 0]) for the summary of graded laboratory abnormalities. 
8.4. 
Demographic Data and Baseline Characteristics 
Demographic and baseline measurements will be summarized using standard descriptive 
methods (n, mean, SD, median, Ql, Q3, minimum, and maximum) by treatment group and 
overall. Demographic summaries will include sex, race/ethnicity, and age. 
Baseline characteristics summary will include body weight, height, body mass index, and other 
disease characteristics.

Clinical and laboratory adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for 
Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). System Organ Class (SOC), High-Level Group Term 
(HLGT), High-Level Term (HLT), Preferred Term (PT), and Lower-Level Term (LLT) will be 
attached to the clinical database. Adverse event severity will be graded using the CTCAE 
Version 4.03.
Events will be summarized on the basis of the date of onset for the event. Treatment-emergent 
adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as 1 or both of the following:

Any AEs with an onset date on or after the study drug start date and no later than 30 days 
after permanent discontinuation of study drug

Any AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study drug
Summaries (number and percentage of subjects) of TEAEs by SOC and PT will be provided.  
Treatment-emergent AEs will also be summarized by relationship to study drug and severity.  In 
addition, TEAEs leading to premature discontinuation of study drug and study will be 
summarized and listed.
All AEs collected during the course of the study will be presented in data listings with a field for 
treatment-emergent event (yes/no).
8.7.3.
Laboratory Evaluations
Selected laboratory data will be summarized (n, mean, SD, Median, Q1, Q3, minimum, and 
maximum) by treatment group and study visit along with the corresponding change from 
baseline values. 
Graded laboratory abnormalities will be defined using the grading scheme in the CTCAE 
Version 4.03 (Appendix 3). Grading of laboratory abnormalities for analysis purposes will be 
performed by the central laboratory.

months in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc basis if there are at least 3 similar 
Grade ≥ 3 serious, treatment-related Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 
(CTCAE) observed in the trial. In the event of two similar treatment-related Grade 4 CTCAE 
events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, the DMC will review the data and advise the 
sponsor regarding stopping or continuing the trial. The DMC will provide recommendation to 
Gilead whether the nature, frequency, and severity of adverse effects associated with study 
treatment warrant the early termination of the study in the best interests of the participants, 
whether the study should continue as planned, or the study should continue with modifications. 
The DMC may also provide recommendations as needed regarding study design.
The DMC’s specific activities will be defined by a mutually agreed charter, which will define the 
DMC’s membership, conduct and meeting schedule.
While the DMC will be asked to advise Gilead regarding future conduct of the study, including 
possible early study termination, Gilead retains final decision-making authority on all aspects of 
the study.

the laws and regulations of the country in which the research is conducted, whichever affords the 
greater protection to the study subject. These standards are consistent with the European Union 
Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC and Good Clinical Practice Directive 2005/28/EC.
The investigator will ensure adherence to the basic principles of Good Clinical Practice, as 
outlined in 21 CFR 312, subpart D, “Responsibilities of Sponsors and Investigators,” 21 CFR, 
part 50, 1998, and 21 CFR, part 56, 1998.
The investigator and all applicable subinvestigators will comply with 21 CFR, Part 54, 1998, 
providing documentation of their financial interest or arrangements with Gilead, or proprietary 
interests in the investigational drug under study. This documentation must be provided prior to 
the investigator’s (and any subinvestigator’s) participation in the study. The investigator and 
subinvestigator agree to notify Gilead of any change in reportable interests during the study and 
for 1 year following completion of the study. Study completion is defined as the date when the 
last subject completes the protocol-defined activities.
9.1.2.
Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) 
Review and Approval
The investigator (or sponsor as appropriate according to local regulations) will submit this 
protocol, informed consent form, and any accompanying material to be provided to the subject 
(such as advertisements, subject information sheets, or descriptions of the study used to obtain 
informed consent) to an IRB/IEC/EC. The investigator will not begin any study subject activities 
until approval from the IRB/IEC/EC has been documented and provided as a letter to the 
investigator.
Before implementation, the investigator will submit to and receive documented approval from 
the IRB/IEC/EC any modifications made to the protocol or any accompanying material to be 
provided to the subject after initial IRB/IEC/EC approval, with the exception of those necessary 
to reduce immediate risk to study subjects.
9.1.3.
Informed Consent
The investigator is responsible for obtaining written informed consent from each individual 
participating in this study after adequate explanation of the aims, methods, objectives, and 
potential hazards of the study and before undertaking any study-related procedures. The

written informed consent. Each informed consent (or assent as applicable) will be appropriately 
signed and dated by the subject or the subject’s legally authorized representative and the person 
conducting the consent discussion, and also by an impartial witness if required by IRB/IEC/EC
local requirements.
9.1.4.
Confidentiality
The investigator must assure that subjects’ anonymity will be strictly maintained and that their 
identities are protected from unauthorized parties. Only subject initials, date of birth, another 
unique identifier (as allowed by local law) and an identification code will be recorded on any 
form or biological sample submitted to the Sponsor, IRB/IEC/EC, or laboratory. Laboratory 
specimens must be labeled in such a way as to protect subject identity while allowing the results 
to be recorded to the proper subject. NOTE: The investigator must keep a screening log showing 
codes, names, and addresses for all subjects screened and for all subjects randomized in the trial.
Subject data will be processed in accordance with all applicable regulations. 
The investigator agrees that all information received from Gilead, including but not limited to the 
investigator brochure, this protocol, eCRF, the study drug, and any other study information, 
remain the sole and exclusive property of Gilead during the conduct of the study and thereafter. 
This information is not to be disclosed to any third party (except employees or agents directly 
involved in the conduct of the study or as required by law) without prior written consent from 
Gilead. The investigator further agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent the 
disclosure by any employee or agent of the study site to any third party or otherwise into the 
public domain.
9.1.5.
Study Files and Retention of Records
The investigator must maintain adequate and accurate records to enable the conduct of the study 
to be fully documented and the study data to be subsequently verified. These documents should 
be classified into at least the following two categories: (1) investigator’s study file, and 
(2) subject clinical source documents.
The investigator’s study file will contain the protocol/amendments, CRF and query forms
IRB/IEC and governmental approval with correspondence, informed consent, drug records, staff 
curriculum vitae and authorization forms, and other appropriate documents and correspondence.
The required source data should include sequential notes containing at least the following 
information for each subject:

Subject identification (name, date of birth, gender);

Documentation that subject meets eligibility criteria, ie, history, physical examination, and 
confirmation of diagnosis (to support inclusion and exclusion criteria);

Documentation of the reason(s) a consented subject is not randomized;


Participation in study (including study number);

Study discussed and date of informed consent;

Dates of all visits;

Documentation that protocol specific procedures were performed;

Results of efficacy parameters, as required by the protocol;

Start and end date (including dose regimen) of study drug, including dates of dispensing and 
return;

Record of all adverse events and other safety parameters (start and end date, and including 
causality and severity);

Concomitant medication (including start and end date, dose if relevant; dose changes);

Date of study completion and reason for early discontinuation, if it occurs.
All clinical study documents must be retained by the investigator until at least 2 years or 
according to local laws, whichever is longer, after the last approval of a marketing application in 
an ICH region (ie, United States, Europe, or Japan) and until there are no pending or planned 
marketing applications in an ICH region; or, if no application is filed or if the application is not 
approved for such indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and regulatory 
authorities have been notified. Investigators may be required to retain documents longer if 
specified by regulatory requirements, by local regulations, or by an agreement with Gilead. The 
investigator must notify Gilead before destroying any clinical study records.
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, Gilead must be notified in advance.
If the investigator cannot provide for this archiving requirement at the study site for any or all of 
the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and Gilead to store 
these records securely away from the site so that they can be returned sealed to the investigator 
in case of an inspection. When source documents are required for the continued care of the 
subject, appropriate copies should be made for storage away from the site.
9.1.6.
Case Report Forms
For each subject consented, an electronic case report form (eCRF) will be completed by an 
authorized study staff member whose training for this function is documented according to study 
procedures. eCRF should be completed on the day of the subject visit to enable the sponsor to 
perform central monitoring of safety data.  The Eligibility Criteria eCRF should be completed 
only after all data related to eligibility have been received.  Subsequent to data entry, a study 
monitor will perform source data verification within the EDC system. Original entries as well as 


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Amendment 1

any changes to data fields will be stored in the audit trail of the system.  Prior to database lock 
(or any interim time points as described in the clinical data management plan), the investigator 
will use his/her log in credentials to confirm that the forms have been reviewed, and that the 
entries accurately reflect the information in the source documents. The eCRF capture the data 
required per the protocol schedule of events and procedures. System-generated or manual 
queries will be issued to the investigative site staff as data discrepancies are identified by the 
monitor or internal Gilead staff, who routinely review the data for completeness, correctness, and 
consistency. The site coordinator is responsible for responding to the queries in a timely manner, 
within the system, either by confirming the data as correct or updating the original entry, and 
providing the reason for the update (e.g. data entry error). At the conclusion of the trial, Gilead 
will provide the site with a read-only archive copy of the data entered by that site. This archive 
must be stored in accordance with the records retention requirements outlined in Section 9.1.5.
9.1.7.
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability and Return
Where possible, study drug should be destroyed at the site. If the site does not have acceptable 
procedures in place for drug destruction, arrangements will be made between the site and 
Gilead Sciences (or Gilead Sciences’ representative) for return of unused study drug supplies. 
The study monitor will provide instructions for return.
The study monitor will evaluate each study center’s study drug disposal procedures and provide 
appropriate instruction for destruction of unused study drug supplies. If the site has an 
appropriate standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by Gilead 
QA, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused study drug supplies in 
accordance with that site’s approved SOP. A copy of the site’s approved SOP will be obtained 
for central files. 
If study drug is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all study 
drug destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the 
method of destruction, and the person who disposed of the study drug. Upon study completion, 
copies of the study drug accountability records must be filed at the site. Another copy will be 
returned to Gilead. Refer to the pharmacy binder for study drug disposal/return instructions.
The study monitor will review study drug supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.
9.1.8.
Inspections
The investigator will make available all source documents and other records for this trial to 
Gilead’s appointed study monitors to the IRB/IEC/EC, or to regulatory authority or health 
authority inspectors.
9.1.9.
Protocol Compliance
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol.

Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing 
Potential, and Contraceptive Requirements
1. Definitions
a. Definition of Childbearing Potential
For the purposes of this study, a female born subject is considered of childbearing potential 
following the initiation of puberty (Tanner stage 2) until becoming post-menopausal, unless 
permanently sterile or with medically documented ovarian failure.  
Women are considered to be in a postmenopausal state when they are > 54 years of age with 
cessation of previously occurring menses for > 12 months without an alternative cause.  In 
addition, women of any age with amenorrhea of > 12 months may also be considered 
postmenopausal if their follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level is in the postmenopausal range 
and they are not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy.
Permanent sterilization includes hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral 
salpingectomy in a female subject of any age.
b. Definition of Male Fertility
For the purposes of this study, a male born subject is considered of fertile after the initiation of 
puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy or medical documentation.
2. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects
a. Study Drug Effects on Pregnancy and Hormonal Contraception
GS-9674 has not yet been studied in pregnant women. In the initial dose range-finding studies in 
pregnant mice and rabbits, there were no effects on embryofetal development other than a 
decrease in fetal body weights in pregnant rabbits administered 1000 mg/kg/day. The decrease in 
fetal body weights are likely secondary to maternal toxicity rather than a direct effect of 
GS-9674. The NOEL for embryo/fetal development is 300 mg/kg/day in mice and 
200 mg/kg/day in rabbits. These doses were associated with exposures that are > 50-fold higher 
than the anticipated human exposure at the maximum proposed human dose of 100 mg once 
daily. Drug-drug interaction (DDI) data do not suggest a potential for interaction with hormones 
used for contraception.
Please refer to the latest version of the Investigator’s Brochure for additional information.

30 September 2016
b. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects of Childbearing Potential
The inclusion of female subjects of childbearing potential requires the use of highly effective 
contraceptive measures. They must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a 
negative pregnancy test on the Baseline/Day 1 visit prior to randomization. At minimum, a 
pregnancy test will be performed at all study visits except Blinded Study Phase Week 2 and OLE 
Weeks 1 and 2 and at 30 days after the last dose of the study drug.  Female subjects must agree 
to one of the following from Screening until 30 days following the last dose of the study drug 
GS-9674.

Complete abstinence from intercourse of reproductive potential.  Abstinence is an acceptable 
method of contraception only when it is in line with the subject’s preferred and usual 
lifestyle. 
Or

Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed below. 
Intrauterine device (IUD) with a failure rate of <1% per year
Tubal sterilization
Essure micro-insert system (provided confirmation of success 3 months after procedure)
Vasectomy in the male partner (provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner and 
had confirmation of surgical success 3 months after procedure)
Or

Consistent and correct use of one hormonal method and one barrier method.
Barrier methods
■
Diaphragm with spermicide
■
Cervical cap with spermicide
■
Male condom (with or without spermicide)
Hormonal methods
■
Oral contraceptives (either combined or progesterone only)
■
Injectable progesterone
■
Implants of levonorgestrel
■
Transdermal contraceptive patch

Contraceptive vaginal ring
Female subjects must also refrain from egg donation and in vitro fertilization during treatment 
and until at least 30 days after the last dose of the study drug GS-9674.
3. Contraception Requirements for Male Subjects
It is theoretically possible that a relevant systemic concentration may be achieved in a female 
partner from exposure of the male subject’s seminal fluid.  Therefore, male subjects with female 
partners of childbearing potential must use condoms (plus spermicide) during treatment and until 
90 days after last dose of GS-9674. Additional contraception recommendations should also be 
considered if the female partner is not pregnant.
Male subjects must agree to avoid sperm donation during treatment and until at least 90 days 
after the last dose of study drug GS-9674.
4. Unacceptable Birth Control Methods
Birth control methods that are unacceptable include periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, 
ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), spermicides 
only, and lactational amenorrhea method (LAM).  Female condom and male condom should not 
be used together.
5. Procedures to be Followed in the Event of Pregnancy
Subjects will be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time during 
the study, or if they become pregnant within 30 days (90 days of partner of male subject) of last 
study drug dose. Subjects who become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant during the 
study must report the information to the investigator and discontinue study drug immediately. 
Subjects whose partner has become pregnant or suspects she is pregnant during the study must 
report the information to the investigator. Instructions for reporting pregnancy, partner 
pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome are outlined in Section 7.6.2.1.

Criteria for 
Evaluation: 
Safety: 
Final 
Original 
The primary endpoint is the safety of GS-9674 in subjects with PSC 
without cirrhosis. 
Safety will be assessed during the study through the reporting of AEs, 
and by clinical laboratory tests and vital sign assessments at various 
time points during the study. Concomitant medication usage will also 
be assessed throughout the study. 
An independent, external Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) that 
consists oftwo hepatologists and a PhD statistician will convene once 
20 subjects have been randomized and every 3 to 4 months thereafter 
to monitor the study for safety events in Blinded Study Phase and 
every 6 month in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc 
basis ifthere are at least 3 similar Grade 2:: 3 serious, treatment related 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 
observed in the study. In the event of two similar treatment-related 
Grade 4 CTCAE events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, 
the DMC will review the data and advise the sponsor regarding 
stopping or continuing the study. 
Efficacy: 
Efficacy will be assessed through a number of exploratory endpoints. 
These exploratory endpoints are described in Section 8.1.3. 
Pharmacokinetic and 
A single predose PK and PD blood sample will be collected at each 
Pharmacodynamic: 
on-treatment visit for all subjects. Plasma concentrations of GS-9674, 
GS-716070 (metabolite ofGS-9674), and other metabolites as 
appropriate, will be determined for PK analyses as applicable. Plasma 
or serum concentrations of FGF 19, C4, and bile acids will be 
determined as applicable for PD analyses.

INTRODUCTION
1.1.
Background
Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic biliary disease of unknown etiology 
characterized by a fibrosing cholangitis that leads to inflammation, cholestasis and cirrhosis. The 
overall incidence of PSC is 0.77 per 100,000 person-years, with a median age at diagnosis of 
41 years and 2-to-1 male to female predominance {Molodecky et al 2011}. PSC is highly 
associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), typically ulcerative colitis (UC) with up to 
90% of PSC patients having associated IBD and conversely, PSC develops in approximately 8% 
of all IBD patients {Saich et al 2008}. There are approximately 30,000-45,000 patients with PSC 
in the United States, making it an orphan disease. PSC affects less than 1.6 in 10,000 people in 
the European Union (EU), equivalent to a total of fewer than 82,000 people. 
PSC is a progressive disease that leads to cirrhosis of the liver. The clinical presentation of PSC 
is variable, and ranges from asymptomatic disease with mild elevations in alkaline phosphatase 
(ALP) and transaminases to more rapidly progressive, symptomatic disease in 15-30% of all 
patients. In addition to complications related to cirrhosis and portal hypertension, patients with 
PSC are prone to repeated episodes of bacterial cholangitis, pruritus, and are at high risk for 
cholangiocarcinoma. Specifically, the lifetime risk of cholangiocarcinoma in patients with PSC 
is 10-15%, a rate 160-fold that of the general population {Saich et al 2008}. Mortality from PSC 
is estimated to be 35% over 10 years from diagnosis {Kornfeld et al 1997}.
There are no approved therapies for PSC. Medical therapy with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) 
may improve liver biochemistry, but has no impact on symptoms or clinical outcomes {Triantos 
et al 2011}. Immunosuppressive therapy has also been ineffective {Lindor et al 2015}. Episodes 
of ascending cholangitis are managed supportively with antibiotics in conjunction with 
therapeutic drainage if necessary. Liver transplantation is the only therapeutic option currently 
available to patients with PSC. Outcomes of transplantation are generally favorable (five-year 
survival ~85%), but the disease recurs post-transplant in up to 25% of patients {Graziadei et al 
1999}.
The etiology of PSC is unknown. As noted above, there is a strong association with IBD and 
genome-wide association studies (GWAS) indicate moderate genetic associations with PSC. The 
strongest associations are in the HLA complex on chromosome 6p21 with weaker associations at 
loci known to be associated with IBD, chromosome 3p21, 2q35 and the GPC5/GPC6 region on 
chromosome 13q31 {Karlsen et al 2010}. Several hypotheses as to the underlying cause of the 
disease have been proposed including aberrant homing of T cells to the bile ducts, autoimmunity, 
bile acid toxicity, and gut bacterial translocation leading to fibrosing cholangitis, and subsequent 
cholestasis and hepatotoxicity.

GS-9674
1.2.1.
General Information
GS-9674 is a potent agonist of Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) whose activity in intestinal 
epithelial cells results in the release of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19). FGF19 is an 
endocrine peptide which drives a signaling cascade to decrease hepatic lipogenesis, 
gluconeogenesis, triglyceride accumulation, and bile acid synthesis.
Please refer to the Investigator’s Brochure (IB) for additional information on GS-9674 including:

In Vitro FXR agonism

Nonclinical Pharmacokinetics and In Vitro Metabolism

Nonclinical Pharmacology and Toxicology
1.2.2.
Nonclinical Toxicology
The nonclinical toxicity profile of GS-9674 has been assessed in mice and cynomolgus monkeys 
administered GS-9674 orally for 4 weeks in both species and for 13 weeks in monkeys and 
26 weeks (in-life phase only) in mice. GS-9674-related effects included non-adverse findings in 
the liver for both species that are likely related to the pharmacology of the compound. In both 
mice and cynomolgus monkeys, mild increases in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, liver 
weight, and hepatocellular hypertrophy were observed after 4 weeks of dosing. Minimal oval cell 
hyperplasia was also observed in the liver of cynomolgus monkeys after 4 weeks of dosing. The 
increases in ALP activity and liver weights persisted but did not progress with longer term 
dosing in monkeys (13 weeks) but the histopathological changes were no longer evident. In 
mice, the ALP activity and liver weights were still present and were modestly more pronounced 
with longer term dosing (26 weeks). In mice, the above findings were observed at 
≥100 mg/kg/day after 4 weeks of dosing and at all doses (≥ 20 mg/kg/day) after 26 weeks of 
dosing.  In monkeys, the above findings were observed at doses of 300 mg/kg/day after both 
4 and 13 weeks of dosing. Decreases in cholesterol (≥60 mg/kg/day) and triglycerides 
(≥100 mg/kg/day) as well as increased albumin (≥60 mg/kg/day) observed in mice after 
4 and/or 26 weeks of dosing as well as the decrease in serum bile acids (300 mg/kg/day) in 
monkey after 13 weeks of dosing are also likely to be related to the pharmacology of GS-9674.
Other minimal to mild, non-adverse findings observed after 13 or 26 weeks of dosing in 
monkeys or mice, respectively, that were considered GS-9674-related included decreased red 
blood cell parameters (mouse; ≥20 mg/kg/day), increased platelets (mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day), 
shortened activated partial thromboplastin time (monkey; 300 mg/kg/day), and increased 
phosphorus (mouse; 600/300 mg/kg/day). Findings present in monkeys after 13 weeks of dosing 
were reversible after a 4 week nondosing recovery period. In the 26 week mouse study, there 
were no adverse findings based on the in-life data at 60 mg/kg/day and the no-observed-adverse 
effect level (NOAEL) in monkeys after 13 weeks of dosing was 300 mg/kg/day.

Preliminary steady-state PK data from Cohort 5 (administration of GS-9674 100 mg with food) 
in the ongoing Phase 1 study of GS-9674 (GS-US-402-1851: Section 1.2.5.1) indicate adequate 
safety margins based on GS-9674 exposures at the nonclinical NOAEL doses in mouse and 
cynomolgus monkey (Table 1-1).

Nonclinical Pharmacology
GS-9674 is a potent and selective agonist of FXR. This conclusion is supported by the following 
data: 1) modeling demonstrated an interaction of GS-9674 with the binding domain of FXR/
Retinoid X receptor (RXR) consistent with agonist activity, 2) GS-9674 induced an agonist 
response in a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) biochemical 
assay with an EC50 of 16 nM, which was comparable to that of other known FXR agonists, and 
3) GS-9674 did not activate the structurally similar bile acid receptor TGR5, did not activate 
other nuclear hormone receptors, and did not bind to a panel of other off-target receptors and 
enzymes.
The cellular potency of GS-9674 to activate FXR-mediated transcription was characterized using 
a firefly luciferase reporter gene engineered under the control of a FXR/RXR response element 
(PC-402-2012). GS-9674 caused complete FXR activation with an EC50 value of 43 nM, which 
was more potent than chenodeoxycholic acid (EC50 of 1770 nM).
Oral dose-ranging experiments in male cynomolgus monkeys demonstrated maximal increases in 
plasma FGF19 at a dose of 5 mg/kg (PC-402-2016). In addition, the oral administration of 
GS-9674 (30 mg/kg) to cynomolgus monkeys directly activated intestinal FXR, as measured by 
the expression of FXR-target genes in the ileum (15-fold increase in FGF19 mRNA, and a 2-fold 
increase in organic solute transporter (OSTα and OSTβ mRNA) (PC-402-2005).
The effects of GS-9674 on FGF19 levels were compared in cynomolgus monkeys following both 
oral and intravenous (IV) administration (PC-402-2016). Despite greater exposures following IV 
administration, only the oral administration of GS-9674 increased circulating FGF19 levels. 
These data suggest that intestinal FXR agonism by GS-9674 causes FGF19 production, whereas 
low systemic free drug concentrations limit effects following IV administration of GS-9674.

GS-9674 was evaluated in a choline-deficient high fat diet/NaN02 rat model of liver fibrosis 
(PC-402-2015). This in vivo model utilized "2 hits" to mimic the metabolic and oxidative stress 
components ofNASH disease in humans {Nakamoto et al2009}, {Murakami et al2013}. Treatment 
with GS-9674 dose-dependently reduced both biochemical and histological measures of liver 
fibrosis in this model. 
Safety pharmacology studies have been conducted to examine the potential effects ofGS-9674 
on the cardiovascular (CV), respiratory, and central nervous system (CNS) systems. There were 
no GS-9674-related effects on the CNS or respiratory system in mice administered up to 
600 mg/kg. In addition, there was no significant human ether-a-go-go-related gene inhibition at 
concentrations up to 100 J.lM or GS-9674-related effects on the CV system in monkeys 
administered up to 300 mg/kg. 
Overall, the results from these pharmacology studies demonstrate that GS-9674 is a potent and 
selective agonist of intestinal FXR with the potential to benefit patients with PSC by inducing 
FGF19 production and reducing bile acid levels.

limiting 
The low systemic clearance (CL) of GS-9674 in rats, dogs and monkeys was considerably lower 
than the predicted hepatic clearance based on in vitro studies with hepatocytes. This discrepancy 
is most likely a result of protein-restricted clearance in vivo due to the very high plasma protein 
binding(> 99.6%) across species. The volume of distribution (V ss) ofGS-9674 was consistent 
with extracellular fluid (ranging from 0.16-0.21 Llkg) in rats, dogs, and monkeys. 
After oral dosing to albino and pigmented mice, C4C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity was 
distributed to most of the tissues, with the highest maximum concentrations of radioactivity 
determined in organs of absorption and excretion. Generally similar distribution patterns and 
tissue concentrations of C4C]GS-9674-derived radioactivity were observed in albino and 
pigmented mice with no observed binding to melanin. In both strains, no quantifiable 
radioactivity was detected in brain, suggesting C4C] GS-9674-derived radioactivity did not cross 
the blood-brain barrier. Fecal elimination was a predominant route of elimination of C4C] 
GS-9674-derived radioactivity in both mice (85.7% and 5.45% recovered in feces and urine, 
respectively) and monkeys (78.2% and 69.7% recovered in feces in intact and bile duct 
cannulated animals) likely representing drug not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. 
Approximately 6% of the administered radioactivity was excreted in bile and urine in monkeys. 
Radiolabeled material was primarily excreted within the first 48 hours. 
GS-9674 undergoes oxidative metabolism in human hepatocytes. Comparison of metabolism in 
hepatocytes from mice, rats, dogs, monkeys, and humans did not identify any metabolites unique

GS-9674. Of the recombinant human CYP isozymes tested, CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP2C19 
were shown to metabolize GS-9674. Potent inhibitors of these CYPs therefore may affect 
metabolism of GS-9674. GS-9674 had little inhibitory effect on the activities of CYP1A2, 
CYP2B6, CYP2C19 or CYP2D6 (IC50 > 25 μM). For CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP3A, IC50
values of 2.4 to 13.6 μM were obtained but GS-9674 was not a mechanism-based inhibitor of 
these enzymes. GS-9674 showed moderate inhibition of human UGT1A1, sodium-taurocholate 
cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), and bile salt export pump (IC50 2.8-7.7 μM). GS-9674 
inhibited human OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and OATP2B1 with IC50 values of 0.68, 0.41, and 
0.21 μM, respectively. GS-9674 therefore has the potential to affect hepatic/intestinal uptake of 
OATP substrates or metabolism of CYP2C8, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4 substrates when its 
concentrations are sufficiently high. However, low solubility, high protein binding (> 99.98%) 
and low systemic levels reduce the potential for GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions via 
inhibition of metabolic enzymes and transporters.
GS-9674 was a substrate for efflux transporters P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance 
protein, as well as the uptake transporters OATP1B1, 1B3, and 2B1, and NTCP. Inhibitors or 
genetic polymorphisms affecting the activity of these transporters may affect GS-9674 intestinal 
absorption and hepatic uptake. This was illustrated in an in vivo study in monkeys where 
pretreatment with cyclosporin A, a known inhibitor of efflux transporters, increased the 
bioavailability of GS-9674 approximately 5-fold.
GS-9674 is highly selective for FXR over other nuclear hormone receptors in cell-based reporter 
assays, including those associated with potential for induction of human drug metabolizing 
enzymes and transporters (eg, pregnane X receptor, constitutive androstane receptor). Thus the 
liability of GS-9674 to cause drug-drug interactions through proteins regulated by these nuclear 
receptors is low.

Clinical Trials of GS-9674
Ongoing clinical experience with GS-9674 includes a Phase 1 clinical study (GS-US-402-1851).  
A brief PK summary of results from this ongoing study is presented below.
1.2.5.1.
GS-US-402-1851
Study GS-US-402-1851 is an ongoing Phase 1, randomized, placebo-controlled, single- and 
multiple-dose study with 4 prespecified, staggered dose-escalation cohorts and 4 randomized, 
placebo-controlled, single- and multiple-dose cohorts with adaptive dose selection and dose 
frequency.
Preliminary data based on an interim safety analysis as of 22 June 2016 are provided in the 
following sections. A total of 105 subjects have been randomized into 7 cohorts. One subject 
withdrew consent after randomization but prior to dosing and was not replaced. Therefore, safety 
data described below includes 104 dosed subjects.
Subjects received single and multiple doses of GS-9674 at a dose of 10 mg QD (Cohort 1), 
30 mg QD (Cohort 2), 100 mg QD (Cohort 3), or 300 mg QD (Cohort 4) administered in a

(AEs) is provided in Table 1-2. Overall, the rate of any AEs was similar between subjects treated 
with GS-9674 or placebo. All AEs were Grade 1 or 2 in severity; AEs occurring in greater than 
two GS-9674 treated subjects were back pain (n = 5), diarrhea (n=3), and headache (n = 6).

Grade 2 or 3 elevations in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were seen in five (6%) 
GS-9674 treated subjects and one (5%) placebo treated subject. Of these, two GS-9674 treated 
subjects were noted to have grade 2 or 3 elevations of ALT during active treatment; one each in 
Cohort 6 (GS-9674 50 mg BID) and Cohort 7 (GS-9674 15 mg BID). The remaining subjects 
with elevated ALT were identified at the follow-up visit 4 days after completing study drug. In 
two of these subjects, elevated ALT was associated with very high serum creatine kinase levels, 
consistent with elevation due to strenuous exercise. All ALT elevations returned to baseline and 
were not associated with changes in bilirubin or coagulation parameters. There were no clinically 
important treatment- or dose-related trends in vital signs, ECG, or physical examination findings
in this study.
Preliminary PK parameters for GS-9674 after single- and multiple-dose administration of 10, 30, 
100 or 300 mg under fasting conditions and 100 mg under fed conditions in healthy volunteers 
are presented in Table 1-3. GS-9674 was rapidly absorbed with a median Tmax occurring between 
1.25 and 3.25 hours under fasting conditions. Across the dose levels tested, plasma 
concentrations declined in a bi-phasic manner with a median t1/2 of 5.56 to 12.8 hours. The lower 
observed median t1/2 of 5 to 6 hours in the 10 mg and 30 mg cohorts, respectively, may be a 
result of plasma concentrations falling below the limit of quantitation during the distributional 
phase of the profile. In general, GS-9674 AUC and Cmax increased less than dose proportionally 
above 10 mg upon single and multiple dosing. As expected based on the short GS-9674 t1/2 and 
once daily dosing, minimal to no accumulation was observed for GS-9674 AUC, Cmax or C24
from single to multiple dose administration. Administration of GS-9674 with food resulted in 
prolonged absorption of GS-9674 with an approximately 60% reduction in mean Cmax and 
approximately 35% reduction in mean AUC.  Plasma concentrations of GS-716070 (a metabolite 
of GS-9674 with ~40-fold less potency than GS-9674 against FXR) were analyzed in Cohort 5 
(GS-9674 100 mg administered fed).  The t1/2 of GS-716070 was similar to that of GS-9647 with
AUC and Cmax ~60% and 35%, respectively of that observed for GS-9674.  Similar to GS-9674, 
GS-716070 did not accumulate upon multiple dosing.

Preliminary changes in FGF19 and C4 levels as measured by the primary PD parameters (AUC2-
8, Cmax, and Cmin) were determined to be the most sensitive measures of changes in FGF19 and 
C4 after multiple dose administration of placebo, 10, 30, 100 or 300 mg GS-9674 under fasting 
conditions and 100 mg under fed conditions in healthy volunteers are presented in Table 1-4. In
general, similar changes in PD parameters were observed after single or multiple dose 
administration (single dose data not shown). GS-9674 doses > 30 mg significantly increased 
FGF19 AUC2-8 and Cmax and reduced C4 AUC2-8 and Cmax. Administration of 100 mg GS-9674 
with food resulted in prolonged elevation of FGF19 plasma concentrations compared to 
administration of GS-9674 100 mg under fasting conditions. Across the dose range of 10 to 
300 mg GS-9674 administered fasted, GS-9674 exposure was weakly correlated with changes in 
FGF19 and moderately correlated with changes in C4 (Spearman correlation r = 0.45, p=0.002). 
Additionally, FGF19 and C4 AUC2-8 changes were inversely correlated (r = -0.335, p=0.02).

Rationale for this Study
PSC is a disorder of unknown etiology characterized by inflammation and fibrosis of the 
intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts that result in the impairment of bile flow (cholestasis). 
Accumulation of excess bile acids causes hepatocellular cytotoxicity that leads to progressive 
liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. In pre-clinical and clinical studies, FXR agonism has been shown to 
reduce bile acid levels via FGF19-mediated suppression of cholesterol-7-alpha-hydroxylase 
(CYP7A1), the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis {Inagaki et al 2005}, {Pellicciari et al 
2002}, {Mudaliar et al 2013}. In addition, in a murine model of fibrosis caused by administration
of a methionine choline deficient diet and sodium nitrite injections, GS-9674 has demonstrated 
an anti-fibrotic effect. Thus, GS-9674 is postulated to be beneficial in subjects with PSC.  
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 30 mg and 100 mg GS-9674 
administered with food for 12 weeks in subjects with PSC. The doses were selected based on 
short-term safety, PD and PK results from Study GS-US-402-1851 in healthy subjects. 
Across the range of GS-9674 doses evaluated (10 to 300 mg QD), doses > 30 mg provide 
comparable intestinal FXR agonism assessed by increases in plasma FGF19 exposure. Food, by 
slowing oral absorption of GS-9674, results in prolonged elevation of plasma FGF19 
concentrations. Exposure-response relationships show that changes in C4 exposure are 
negatively correlated with changes in FGF19 exposure as well as GS-9674 exposure. Based on 
these results, GS-9674 doses of 30 and 100 mg with food are selected for further study as they 
are expected to 1) provide enteral FXR agonism, reductions in bile acid pools, and liver 
biochemical improvements in subjects with PSC; and 2) inform regarding the impact of 
increasing systemic GS-9674 exposure on safety and efficacy.

In the Phase 1 study, GS-US-402-1851, GS-9674 was tested at doses up to 300 mg once daily for 
up to 14 days and was well-tolerated. Taken together, these data support the evaluation of 
GS-9674 30 and 100 mg in subjects with PSC.
Inclusion criteria for this study were developed in order to identify subjects with PSC who have 
persistently abnormal blood markers of liver biochemistry but without cirrhosis. These subjects 
are at an increased risk of PSC-related complications including the need for liver transplantation 
and death. Subjects with clinical and histologic evidence of cirrhosis will be excluded from this 
study due to the uncertain PK and PD properties of GS-9674 in the setting of subjects with 
cirrhosis. Targeting interventions in the proposed study population will provide evidence for the 
safety and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects at risk for progressive hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis.
1.3.1.
Risk/Benefit Assessment for the Study 
Potential risks of a participant’s study involvement include unknown AEs, general risks 
associated with frequent clinic visits and laboratory blood draws, and the associated pain and 
discomfort of phlebotomy. Strategies to mitigate these risks include close monitoring of lab 
values as well as AEs.
It should be noted that there are no currently approved therapies specifically for the treatment of 
PSC. The only therapeutic option available to PSC subjects with advanced liver disease is liver 
transplantation.
Subjects with PSC randomized to the placebo control arm in the study may benefit from frequent 
medical monitoring and close assessment of their PSC and associated pathologies during the 
duration of placebo treatment. Subjects randomized to GS-9674 and those who receive GS-9674 
as part of the OLE phase, may benefit from an improvement in their underlying PSC which may 
manifest as improvements in liver biochemistry, measures of fibrosis, or improvements in quality 
of life. Importantly, this study will provide further data to inform the clinical development of the 
investigational medicinal product GS-9674 for use in an area of unmet medical need. 
Overall, the nonclinical and limited preliminary clinical data show a positive benefit/risk ratio in 
support of the study in subjects with PSC. The study will be conducted in accordance with GCP 
and all applicable rules and regulations. Appropriate safety monitoring will be conducted 
throughout the study to further characterize the safety profile of GS-9674 in subjects without 
cirrhosis due to PSC.

STUDY DESIGN
3.1.
Study Design
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety, 
tolerability, and efficacy of GS-9674 in subjects with PSC without cirrhosis.
The study will consist of 2 phases, a Blinded Study Phase and an OLE Phase. 
Blinded Study Phase: Includes a 4-week screening period, 12-weeks of blinded treatment, and a 
Blinded Study Phase Follow up visit 4 weeks after completion of blinded treatment. 
Subjects completing the Blinded Study Phase without permanently discontinuing study drug will 
be eligible to participate in the OLE Phase of the study.
OLE Phase: Includes a 96-week OLE and an OLE Phase follow-up visit 4 weeks after 
completion of open label treatment.
The overall study design is presented graphically in Figure 3-1.

Treatment Plan and Regimen
Subjects meeting the study’s entry criteria will be randomly assigned in a 2:2:1 ratio to 1 of 3 
different treatment groups during the Blinded Study Phase as shown in Figure 3-1. 
Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence of UDCA use.
Study drug(s) will be administered for a total of 12 weeks from the Baseline/Day 1 visit during 
the Blinded Study Phase and 96 weeks during the OLE Phase. Subjects will begin open-label 
treatment with GS-9674 (100 mg po daily). The dose of GS-9674 may be reduced from 100 mg 
to 30 mg (or subsequently increased back to 100 mg) at the PI’s discretion with the approval of 
the MM, as required.
Subjects will be unblinded to their Blinded Study Phase treatment assignment after the primary 
analysis has been completed, approximately 6 weeks after all subjects have completed the 
Blinded Study Phase.
Dosage and administration of the study drug(s) and reference product are described in 
Section 5.3.
3.3.
Biomarker Testing
3.3.1.
Biomarker Samples to Address the Study Objectives:
Biological specimens will be collected in this study as per the study procedures table
(Appendix 2) and will be used to evaluate the association of exploratory systemic biomarkers 
with study drug response, including efficacy and/or adverse events and to increase knowledge 
and understanding of the biology of PSC or related diseases such as Primary Biliary Cholangitis 
(PBC) and/or the validation of a companion diagnostic for PSC. Because biomarker science is a 
rapidly evolving area of investigation, and adverse events in particular are difficult to predict, it 
is not possible to specify prospectively all tests that will be done on the specimens provided.  The 
testing outlined is based upon the current state of scientific knowledge. It may be modified 
during or after the end of the study to remove tests no longer indicated and/or to add new tests 
based upon the growing state of art knowledge. Samples will be destroyed no later than 15 years 
after the end of the study.
Biomarker testing can include biomarkers that monitor auto-antibodies characteristic of PSC, and 
markers of bone metabolism. In addition biomarkers such as biochemicals, biological 
macromolecules, naturally occurring metabolites, and biomarkers of FXR activity (e.g. FGF19, 
C4 and bile acids) can also be determined.

5.1. 
Randomization, Blinding and Treatment Codes 
Final 
Original 
An Interactive Web Response System (IWRS) will be used for centralized randomization and 
treatment assignment. Randomization will be stratified by the presence or absence ofUDCA use. 
Investigative site personnel will obtain the subject's identification number and study drug 
assignment from the IWRS. Subjects and all personnel directly involved in the conduct of the 
study will be blinded to treatment assignment. 
Study drug(s) will be dispensed by the study pharmacist, or designee, in a blinded fashion to the 
subjects. 
5.1.1. 
Procedures for Breaking Treatment Codes 
In the event of a medical emergency where breaking the blind is required to provide medical care 
to the subject, the investigator may obtain treatment assignment directly from the IWRS system 
for that subject (refer to the Study Reference Binder for IWRS unblinding instructions). Gilead 
recommends but does not require that the investigator contact the Gilead medical monitor before 
breaking the blind. Treatment assignment should remain blinded unless that knowledge is 
necessary to determine subject emergency medical care. The rationale for unblinding must be 
clearly explained in source documentation and on the case report form/ electronic case report 
form ( eCRF), along with the date on which the treatment assignment was obtained. The 
investigator is requested to contact the Gilead medical monitor promptly in case of any treatment 
unblinding. 
Blinding of study treatment is critical to the integrity of this clinical trial and therefore, if a 
subject's treatment assignment is disclosed to the investigator, the subject will have study 
treatment discontinued. All subjects will be followed until study completion unless consent to do 
so is specifically withdrawn by the subject. 
Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) may independently unblind cases for expedited 
reporting of suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs ).

STUDY PROCEDURES
The study procedures to be conducted for each subject randomized in the study are presented in 
tabular form in Appendix 2 and described in the text that follows. Additional information is 
provided in Study Reference Binder.
The investigator must document any deviation from protocol procedures and notify the sponsor 
or contract research organization (CRO).
6.1.
Subject Randomization and Treatment Assignment
It is the responsibility of the investigator to ensure that subjects are eligible to participate in the 
study prior to randomization and throughout the study. 
Documentation of the personally signed and dated informed consent of each subject, using the 
study-specific ICF, is required before initiating the screening process.
After written informed consent has been obtained and eligibility to participate established, 
investigative site personnel will obtain the subject’s identification number and study drug 
assignment from the interactive web response system (IWRS).
6.2.
Pretreatment Assessments-Screening Visit
Subjects will be screened within 4 weeks before randomization to determine eligibility for 
participation in the study. The screening period may be extended under special circumstances 
with the explicit approval of the Medical Monitor. 
Screening labs may be repeated once within the screening period, prior to administration of study 
drug to rule out laboratory error, if any. This will be done at the discretion of the investigator.
The following will be performed and documented at Screening:

Obtain written informed consent before initiation of any screening procedures

Review and record whether the subject meets inclusion and exclusion criteria

Obtain screening number from IWRS

Obtain medical history 

Calculate partial Mayo Score for subjects with IBD


From the time of obtaining informed consent through the first administration of investigational 
medicinal product, record all serious adverse events (SAEs), as well as any AEs related to 
protocol-mandated procedures on the adverse events case report form (eCRF).  All other 
untoward medical occurrences observed during the screening period, including exacerbation or 
changes in medical history are to be captured on the medical history eCRF.  See Section 7
Adverse Events and Toxicity Management for additional details.
6.3.
Blinded Study Phase: Baseline/Day 1 Randomization and Assessments
Subjects returning to the clinic for randomization at Baseline/Day 1 will be instructed to fast (no 
food or drink, except water), starting from midnight or earlier, as appropriate, on the evening 
prior to the Baseline/Day 1 visit to ensure an approximate 8-hour fast prior to the blood sample 
collection under fasting condition the next morning.

Assessments for Premature Discontinuation from Study
Subjects prematurely discontinuing from the study either during the Blinded Study Phase or 
during the OLE Phase (for example, as a result of an AE), should have an Early Termination 
(ET) visit completed followed by a follow-up visit 4 weeks after the last dose of the study 
medication. The study assessments to be performed at the ET visit are the same as those 
performed at the Week 12 visit (refer to Section 6.4.2) for ET subjects in the Blinded Study 
Phase and Week 96 visit for ET subjects in the OLE Phase (refer to Section 6.6). The study 
assessments to be performed at the follow-up visits are listed in Section 6.5 and 6.8 respectively. 
The subject will then be withdrawn from the study.
If these visits are not possible or acceptable to the subject or investigator, the subject may be 
withdrawn from the study.

ADVERSE EVENTS AND TOXICITY MANAGEMENT
7.1.
Definitions of Adverse Events, Adverse Reactions, and Serious Adverse 
Events
7.1.1.
Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study subject 
administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to 
the medicinal product. AEs may also include pre- or post-treatment complications that occur as a 
result of protocol specified procedures, overdose, drug abuse/misuse reports, or occupational 
exposure. Preexisting events that increase in severity or change in nature during or as a 
consequence of participation in the clinical study will also be considered AEs.
An AE does not include the following:

Medical or surgical procedures such as surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, and transfusion.
The condition that led to the procedure may be an adverse event and must be reported

Pre-existing diseases, conditions, or laboratory abnormalities present or detected before the 
Screening visit that do not worsen

Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (eg., hospitalization for 
elective surgery, social and/or convenience admissions)

Overdose without clinical sequelae (see Section 7.6.1)

Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date 
before the consent form is signed and not related to a protocol-associated procedure is not an 
AE. It is considered to be pre-existing and should be documented on the medical history 
CRF.
7.1.2.
Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following:

Death

Life-threatening (Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.)

In-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final 
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Original
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 57
29 June 2016

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

A congenital anomaly/birth defect

A medically important event or reaction: such events may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the subject or may 
require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs. Medical and 
scientific judgment must be exercised to determine whether such an event is a reportable 
under expedited reporting rules. Examples of medically important events include intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; and development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse. For the avoidance of doubt, infections resulting from contaminated medicinal 
product will be considered a medically important event and subject to expedited reporting 
requirements.
7.1.3.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance are not recorded as AEs or SAEs. 
However, laboratory abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) that 
require medical or surgical intervention or lead to study drug interruption, modification, or 
discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, 
laboratory or other abnormal assessments (eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are 
associated with signs and/or symptoms must be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the 
definition of an AE or SAE as described in Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. If the laboratory 
abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the syndrome or diagnosis (eg, anemia), not the 
laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
For specific information on handling of clinical laboratory abnormalities in this study, please 
refer to (Section 7.5).
7.2.
Assessment of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing AEs and SAEs for 
causality and severity, and for final review and confirmation of accuracy of event information 
and assessments.
7.2.1.
Assessment of Causality for Study Drugs and Procedures
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing the relationship to 
GS-9674 therapy using clinical judgment and the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the GS-9674. For 
SAEs, an alternative causality must be provided (eg, pre-existing condition, underlying 
disease, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medication).


GS-9674
Protocol GS-US-428-4025
Final 
Gilead Sciences, Inc. 
Original
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 58
29 June 2016

Yes: There is reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the 
investigational medicinal product.
It should be emphasized that ineffective treatment should not be considered as causally related in 
the context of adverse event reporting. 
The relationship to study procedures (eg, invasive procedures such as venipuncture or biopsy) 
should be assessed using the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study procedure.

Yes: The adverse event occurred as a result of protocol procedures (eg., venipuncture)
7.2.2.
Assessment of Severity
The severity grading of AEs will be assessed as Grade 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 according to the 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03, which can be found 
at http://evs.nci.nih.gov/ftp1/CTCAE/CTCAE_4.03_2010-06-14_QuickReference_8.5x11.pdf
(Appendix 3).
For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the 
clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement 
with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.
The distinction between the seriousness and the severity of an adverse event should be noted. 
Severe is a measure of intensity; thus, a severe reaction is not necessarily a serious reaction. For 
example, a headache may be severe in intensity, but would not be classified as serious unless it 
met one of the criteria for serious events listed above.
7.3.
Investigator Requirements and Instructions for Reporting Adverse Events 
and Serious Adverse Events to Gilead
Requirements for collection prior to study drug initiation:
After informed consent, but prior to initiation of study medication, the following types of events 
should be reported on the case report form (eCRF): all SAEs and adverse events related to 
protocol-mandated procedures.
Adverse Events
Following initiation of study medication, collect all AEs, regardless of cause or relationship, 
until 30 days after last administration of GS-9674; AEs must be reported to the eCRF database as 
instructed.
All AEs should be followed up until resolution or until the adverse event is stable, if possible. 
Gilead Sciences may request that certain AEs be followed beyond the protocol defined follow up 
period.

Serious Adverse Events
All SAEs, regardless of cause or relationship, that occurs after the subject first consents to 
participate in the study (ie, signing the informed consent) and throughout the duration of the 
study, including the protocol-required post treatment follow-up period, must be reported to the 
eCRF database and Gilead Drug Safety and Public Health (DSPH) as instructed. This also 
includes any SAEs resulting from protocol-associated procedures performed after informed 
consent is signed.
Any SAEs and deaths that occur after the post treatment follow-up visit and within 30 days of 
the last dose of study drug, regardless of causality, should also be reported. 
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek SAEs after the protocol defined follow up period; 
however, if the investigator learns of any SAEs that occur after study participation has concluded 
and the event is deemed relevant to the use of IMP, he/she should promptly document and report 
the event to Gilead DSPH.

All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the eCRF database within the timelines outlined in the 
eCRF completion guideline. 
Electronic Serious Adverse Event (eSAE) Reporting Process

Site personnel record all SAE data in the eCRF database and from there transmit the SAE 
information to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event. 
Detailed instructions can be found in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If for any reason it is not possible to record the SAE information electronically, ie, the eCRF 
database is not functioning, record the SAE on the paper serious adverse event reporting 
form and submit within 24 hours to:
Gilead DSPH
Email:
Safety_FC@gilead.com
Fax:
+1 650-522-5477

As soon as it is possible to do so, any SAE reported via paper must be transcribed into the 
eCRF Database according to instructions in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If an SAE has been reported via a paper form because the eCRF database has been locked, no 
further action is necessary.

For fatal or life-threatening events, copies of hospital case reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents are also to be submitted by e-mail or fax when requested and applicable. 
Transmission of such documents should occur without personal subject identification, 
maintaining the traceability of a document to the subject identifiers.

Additional information may be requested to ensure the timely completion of accurate safety 
reports.

Gilead Reporting Requirements
Depending on relevant local legislation or regulations, including the applicable US FDA Code of 
Federal Regulations, the EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) and relevant updates, and 
other country-specific legislation or regulations, Gilead may be required to expedite to 
worldwide regulatory agencies reports of SAEs, serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs), or 
suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs). In accordance with the EU Clinical 
Trials Directive (2001/20/EC), Gilead or a specified designee will notify worldwide regulatory 
agencies and the relevant IEC in concerned Member States of applicable SUSARs as outlined in 
current regulations.
Assessment of expectedness for SAEs will be determined by Gilead using reference safety 
information specified in the investigator’s brochure or relevant local label as applicable. 
All investigators will receive a safety letter notifying them of relevant SUSAR reports associated 
with any study drug. The investigator should notify the IRB or IEC of SUSAR reports as soon as 
is practical, where this is required by local regulatory agencies, and in accordance with the local 
institutional policy.
To minimize the possibility of exposing study subjects to unusual risk, the safety information 
from this study will also be reviewed periodically by an independent Data Monitoring 
Committee (DMC). The DMC may have access to partially blinded or unblinded data and will 
make recommendations regarding the study according to the DMC charter. See Section 8.12 for
additional details regarding the DMC.
7.5.
Toxicity Management 
7.5.1.
PSC Specific Study Stopping Rule:
Any subject without a history of IBD, who develops new onset IBD while participating in the 
study, must be discontinued from the study. Any subject with a history of IBD who experiences 
at least a 3-point increase in the partial Mayo score while in the study must be discontinued from 
the study.
7.5.2.
Observation for Drug Induced Liver Injury (DILI):
Although subjects randomized in this study will have baseline liver disease, their hepatic 
function should not be significantly impaired. However, at baseline, some may have liver 
biochemistry levels above the upper limit of normal (ULN).

For subjects with ALT and AST below ULN at study start, close observation for DILI (as 
described below) should be considered in subjects with any of the following criteria (all labs 
confirmed by repeat testing):

ALT or AST > 3 x ULN 

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN

Alkaline phosphatase > 3 x ULN

INR >1.5 x ULN (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%)
For subjects with ALT or AST between 1 and 5 x ULN at study start, close observation for DILI 
(as described below) should be considered in subjects with any of the following criteria (all labs 
confirmed by repeat testing):

ALT or AST > 2 x baseline at any time

Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN  

Alkaline phosphatase > 3 x ULN

INR >1.5 x ULN (except for subjects on anticoagulant therapy)  

Clinical signs or symptoms that are, in the opinion of the investigator, consistent with 
hepatitis (such as right upper quadrant discomfort, fever, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, or 
eosinophilia > 5%).  
Close observation includes:

Repeating liver biochemistries (ALT, AST, ALP, total bilirubin, INR) within 48 hours

Obtaining a more detailed history of symptoms and prior or concurrent disease

Obtaining a history of concomitant drug use (including nonprescription medications and 
herbal and dietary supplement preparations), alcohol use, recreational drug use, and special 
diets

Obtaining a history of exposure to environmental chemical agents

Ruling out other causes of liver disease as needed (obtain viral hepatitis panel, imaging for 
evaluation of biliary tract disease, etc. if required in the opinion of the primary investigator)

Continue to monitor liver biochemistries twice weekly. Frequency can decrease to once a 
week or less if abnormalities stabilize or study drug has been discontinued and subject is 
asymptomatic

During a period of close observation, study drug can be continued, if desired, at the discretion of 
the Gilead Medical Monitor and the principal investigator during the DILI evaluation. 
However, for all subjects, study drug should be withheld if any of the following criteria are met:

ALT or AST > 3 x ULN AND either Total bilirubin > 2 x ULN or INR > 1.5 (in subjects not 
on anticoagulation)

ALT or AST > 3 x ULN AND the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper 
quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash, and/or eosinophilia (>5%)

ALT or AST > 8 x ULN 

ALT or AST >5 x ULN for more than 2 weeks
AND

No other cause for the combination of laboratory abnormalities is immediately apparent (e.g. 
prolonged INR with warfarin use) important potential causes or contributors to abnormal 
AST/ALT or total bilirubin values include, but are not limited to:
— Obstructive gall bladder or bile duct disease
— Viral or alcoholic hepatitis (e.g. hepatitis A/B/C/D/E, Epstein-Barr virus, 
cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella)
— Autoimmune hepatitis
— Concomitant administration of other hepatotoxins, including excessive doses of 
acetaminophen, drugs that inhibit bilirubin glucuronidation (e.g. indinavir, atazanavir, 
irinotecan), or herbal or dietary supplements
— Hypoxic or ischemic hepatopathy or congestive hepatopathy in association with 
significant right-sided heart failure
— Wilson disease
— Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
— Progression of malignancy involving the liver (note that metastatic disease to the liver, by 
itself, should not be used as an explanation for significant AST/ALT elevations)
Treatment-emergent toxicities will be noted by the Investigator and brought to the attention of 
the Medical Monitor. Whether or not considered treatment-related, all subjects experiencing AEs 
must be monitored periodically until symptoms subside, any abnormal laboratory values have 
resolved or returned to baseline levels or they are considered irreversible, or until there is a 
satisfactory explanation for the changes observed.


Other than in the case of the liver enzymes noted above, Grade 3 or 4 clinically significant 
laboratory AEs should be confirmed by repeat testing as soon as practical to do so, and 
preferably within 3 calendar days of receipt of the original test results.

For AEs associated with laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of 
the clinical severity in the context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in 
agreement with the grading of the laboratory abnormality.

Any questions regarding toxicity management should be directed to the Medical Monitor.

Special Situations Reports
7.6.1.
Definitions of Special Situations
Special situation reports include all reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, overdose, reports 
of AEs associated with product complaints, occupational exposure with an AE, pregnancy 
reports regardless of an associated AE, and AE in an infant following exposure from 
breastfeeding.  
Medication error is any unintentional error in the prescribing, dispensing, or administration of a 
medicinal product while in the control of the health care provider, subject, or consumer. 
Abuse is defined as persistent or sporadic intentional excessive use of a medicinal product by a 
subject.
Misuse is defined as any intentional and inappropriate use of a medicinal product that is not in 
accordance with the protocol instructions or the local prescribing information.
An overdose is defined as an accidental or intentional administration of a quantity of a medicinal 
product given per administration or cumulatively which is above the maximum recommended 
dose as per protocol or in the product labeling (as it applies to the daily dose of the subject in 
question). In cases of a discrepancy in drug accountability, overdose will be established only 
when it is clear that the subject has taken the excess dose(s). Overdose cannot be established 
when the subject cannot account for the discrepancy except in cases in which the investigator has 
reason to suspect that the subject has taken the additional dose(s).
Product complaint is defined as complaints arising from potential deviations in the manufacture, 
packaging, or distribution of the medicinal product.  
Occupational exposure with an AE: exposure to a medicinal product as a result of one’s 
professional or non-professional occupation.

Instructions for Reporting Special Situations
7.6.2.1.
Instructions for Reporting Pregnancies
The investigator should report pregnancies in female study subjects that are identified after 
initiation of study medication and throughout the study, including the post study drug follow-up 
period, to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy report form within 24 hours of becoming aware of 
the pregnancy.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of pregnancy reporting.
The pregnancy itself is not considered an AE nor is an induced elective abortion to terminate a 
pregnancy without medical reasons.
Any premature termination of pregnancy (eg, a spontaneous abortion, an induced therapeutic 
abortion due to complications or other medical reasons) must be reported within 24 hours as an 
SAE. The underlying medical reason for this procedure should be recorded as the AE term.
A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as described in 
Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Furthermore, any SAE occurring as an adverse pregnancy outcome post 
study must be reported to Gilead DSPH.
The subject should receive appropriate monitoring and care until the conclusion of the 
pregnancy. The outcome should be reported to Gilead DSPH using the pregnancy outcome report 
form. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been completed, the outcome should 
be reported directly to Gilead DSPH. Gilead DSPH contact information is as follows: Email: 
Safety_FC@gilead.com and Fax: +1 (650) 522-5477. 
Pregnancies of female partners of male study subjects exposed to Gilead or other study drugs 
must also be reported and relevant information should be submitted to Gilead DSPH using the 
pregnancy and pregnancy outcome forms within 24 hours. Monitoring of the subject should 
continue until the conclusion of the pregnancy. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study 
has been completed, the outcome should be reported directly to Gilead DSPH, fax number +1 
650 522-5477 or email Safety_FC@gilead.com. 
Refer to Appendix 4 for Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing Potential, 
and Contraceptive Requirements.
7.6.2.2.
Reporting Other Special Situations
All other special situation reports must be reported on the special situations report form and 
forwarded to Gilead DSPH within 24 hours of the investigator becoming aware of the situation. 
These reports must consist of situations that involve study drug and/or Gilead concomitant 
medications, but do not apply to non-Gilead concomitant medications.

Special situations involving non-Gilead concomitant medications does not need to be reported on 
the special situations report form; however, for special situations that result in AEs due to a non-
Gilead concomitant medication, the AE should be reported on the AE form. 
Any inappropriate use of concomitant medications prohibited by this protocol should not be 
reported as “misuse,” but may be more appropriately documented as a protocol deviation.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of special situations reporting.
All clinical sequelae in relation to these special situation reports will be reported as AEs or SAEs 
at the same time using the AE eCRF and/or the SAE report form. Details of the symptoms and 
signs, clinical management, and outcome will be reported, when available.

Biomarkers 
Final 
Original 
The Biomarker Analysis Set will include data from subjects in the Safety Analysis Set who have 
the necessary baseline and on-study measurements to provide interpretable results for the 
specific parameters of interest. 
8.2.2. 
Analysis by Study Phase 
Result of statistical analysis for the randomized phase will be presented by treatment groups. 
Safety data from the OLE Phase will be summarized for overall subjects who roll-over into the 
OLE Phase for safety review, supporting regulatory document update or publication purposes. 
An administrative interim analysis will be performed after first 30 subjects finish 12 weeks of 
treatment. 
8.3. 
Data Handling Conventions 
Missing data can have an impact on the interpretation of the trial data. In general, values for 
missing data will not be imputed. 
Where appropriate, safety data for subjects that did not complete the study will be included in 
summary statistics. For example, if a subject received study medication, the subject will be 
included in a summary of adverse events according to the treatment received; otherwise, if the 
subject is not dosed then they will be excluded from the summary. If safety laboratory results for 
a subject are missing for any reason at a time point, the subject will be excluded from the 
calculation of summary statistics for that time point. If the subject is missing a pre-dose value, 
then the subject will be excluded from the calculation of summary statistics for the pre-dose 
value and the change from pre-dose values. 
Values for missing safety laboratory data and vital signs will not be imputed; however, a missing 
baseline result will be replaced with a screening result, if available. If no pre-treatment 
laboratory value is available, the baseline value will be assumed to be normal (ie, no grade 
[Grade 0]) for the summary of graded laboratory abnormalities. 
8.4. 
Demographic Data and Baseline Characteristics 
Demographic and baseline measurements will be summarized using standard descriptive 
methods (n, mean, SD, median, Ql, Q3, minimum, and maximum) by treatment group and 
overall. Demographic summaries will include sex, race/ethnicity, and age. 
Baseline characteristics summary will include body weight, height, body mass index, and other 
disease characteristics.

Due to the exploratory nature of this study, no formal power calculations were used to determine 
sample size. The number of subjects was chosen based on clinical experience with other similar 
proof of concept studies.
8.12.
Data Monitoring Committee
An independent, external data monitoring committee (DMC) that consists of two hepatologists 
and a PhD statistician will review the progress of the study and perform reviews of safety data. 
The DMC will convene once 20 subjects have been randomized and will meet every 3 to 4 
months thereafter to monitor the study for safety events in Blinded Study Phase and every 6 
month in the OLE Phase. The DMC will meet on an ad hoc basis if there are at least 3 similar 
Grade ≥ 3 serious, treatment related Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 
(CTCAE) observed in the trial. In the event of two similar treatment-related Grade 4 CTCAE 
events or one treatment-related Grade 5 CTCAE, the DMC will review the data and advise the 
sponsor regarding stopping or continuing the trial. The DMC will provide recommendation to 
Gilead whether the nature, frequency, and severity of adverse effects associated with study 
treatment warrant the early termination of the study in the best interests of the participants, 
whether the study should continue as planned, or the study should continue with modifications. 
The DMC may also provide recommendations as needed regarding study design.
The DMC’s specific activities will be defined by a mutually agreed charter, which will define the 
DMC’s membership, conduct and meeting schedule.
While the DMC will be asked to advise Gilead regarding future conduct of the study, including 
possible early study termination, Gilead retains final decision-making authority on all aspects of 
the study.

marketing applications in an ICH region; or, if no application is filed or if the application is not 
approved for such indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and regulatory 
authorities have been notified. Investigators may be required to retain documents longer if 
specified by regulatory requirements, by local regulations, or by an agreement with Gilead. The 
investigator must notify Gilead before destroying any clinical study records.
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, Gilead must be notified in advance.
If the investigator cannot provide for this archiving requirement at the study site for any or all of 
the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and Gilead to store 
these records securely away from the site so that they can be returned sealed to the investigator 
in case of an inspection. When source documents are required for the continued care of the 
subject, appropriate copies should be made for storage away from the site.
9.1.6.
Case Report Forms
For each subject consented, an electronic case report form (eCRF) will be completed by an 
authorized study staff member whose training for this function is documented according to study 
procedures. eCRF should be completed on the day of the subject visit to enable the sponsor to 
perform central monitoring of safety data.  The Eligibility Criteria eCRF should be completed 
only after all data related to eligibility have been received.  Subsequent to data entry, a study 
monitor will perform source data verification within the EDC system. Original entries as well as

any changes to data fields will be stored in the audit trail of the system.  Prior to database lock 
(or any interim time points as described in the clinical data management plan), the investigator 
will use his/her log in credentials to confirm that the forms have been reviewed, and that the 
entries accurately reflect the information in the source documents. The eCRF capture the data 
required per the protocol schedule of events and procedures. System-generated or manual 
queries will be issued to the investigative site staff as data discrepancies are identified by the 
monitor or internal Gilead staff, who routinely review the data for completeness, correctness, and 
consistency. The site coordinator is responsible for responding to the queries in a timely manner, 
within the system, either by confirming the data as correct or updating the original entry, and 
providing the reason for the update (e.g. data entry error). At the conclusion of the trial, Gilead 
will provide the site with a read-only archive copy of the data entered by that site. This archive 
must be stored in accordance with the records retention requirements outlined in Section 9.1.5.
9.1.7.
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability and Return
Where possible, study drug should be destroyed at the site. If the site does not have acceptable 
procedures in place for drug destruction, arrangements will be made between the site and 
Gilead Sciences (or Gilead Sciences’ representative) for return of unused study drug supplies. 
The study monitor will provide instructions for return.
The study monitor will evaluate each study center’s study drug disposal procedures and provide 
appropriate instruction for destruction of unused study drug supplies. If the site has an 
appropriate standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by Gilead 
QA, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused study drug supplies in 
accordance with that site’s approved SOP. A copy of the site’s approved SOP will be obtained 
for central files. 
If study drug is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all study 
drug destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the 
method of destruction, and the person who disposed of the study drug. Upon study completion, 
copies of the study drug accountability records must be filed at the site. Another copy will be 
returned to Gilead. Refer to the pharmacy binder for study drug disposal/return instructions.
The study monitor will review study drug supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.
9.1.8.
Inspections
The investigator will make available all source documents and other records for this trial to 
Gilead’s appointed study monitors to the IRB/IEC/EC, or to regulatory authority or health 
authority inspectors.
9.1.9.
Protocol Compliance
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol.

Protocol Modifications
Protocol modifications, except those intended to reduce immediate risk to study subjects, may be 
made only by Gilead. The investigator must submit all protocol modifications to the IRB/IEC in 
accordance with local requirements and receive documented IRB/IEC/EC approval before 
modifications can be implemented.
9.2.2.
Study Report and Publications
A clinical study report (CSR) will be prepared and provided to the regulatory agencies. Gilead 
will ensure that the report meets the standards set out in the ICH Guideline for Structure and 
Content of Clinical Study Reports (ICH E3). Note that an abbreviated report may be prepared in 
certain cases.
Investigators in this study may communicate, orally present, or publish in scientific journals or 
other scholarly media only after the following conditions have been met: the results of the study 
in their entirety have been publicly disclosed by or with the consent of Gilead in an abstract, 
manuscript, or presentation form or the study has been completed at all study sites for at least 2 
years.
The investigator will submit to Gilead any proposed publication or presentation along with the 
respective scientific journal or presentation forum at least 30 days before submission of the 
publication or presentation. 
No such communication, presentation, or publication will include Gilead’s confidential 
information (see Section 9.1.4).
The investigator will comply with Gilead’s request to delete references to its confidential 
information (other than the study results) in any paper or presentation and agrees to withhold 
publication or presentation for an additional 60 days in order to obtain patent protection if 
deemed necessary.

Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing 
Potential, and Contraceptive Requirements
1. Definitions
a. Definition of Childbearing Potential
For the purposes of this study, a female born subject is considered of childbearing potential 
following the initiation of puberty (Tanner stage 2) until becoming post-menopausal, unless 
permanently sterile or with medically documented ovarian failure.  
Women are considered to be in a postmenopausal state when they are > 54 years of age with 
cessation of previously occurring menses for > 12 months without an alternative cause.  In 
addition, women of any age with amenorrhea of > 12 months may also be considered 
postmenopausal if their follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level is in the postmenopausal range 
and they are not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy.
Permanent sterilization includes hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral 
salpingectomy in a female subject of any age.
b. Definition of Male Fertility
For the purposes of this study, a male born subject is considered of fertile after the initiation of 
puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy or medical documentation.
2. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects
a. Study Drug Effects on Pregnancy and Hormonal Contraception
GS-9674 has not yet been studied in pregnant women. There are no preclinical data available to 
determine whether GS-9674 is teratogenic or fetotoxic in early human pregnancy. There are 
insufficient data to exclude the possibility of a clinically relevant interaction between GS-9674 
and hormonal contraceptives that result in reduced contraception efficacy. 
Please refer to the latest version of the investigator’s brochure for additional information.
b. Contraception Requirements for Female Subjects of Childbearing Potential
The inclusion of female subjects of childbearing potential requires the use of highly effective 
contraceptive measures. They must also not rely on hormone-containing contraceptives as a form 
of birth control during the study. They must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening 
and a negative urine pregnancy test on the Baseline/Day 1 visit prior to randomization.  At 
minimum, a pregnancy test will be performed at the end of relevant system exposure.  In the 
event of a delayed menstrual period (over one month between menstruations), a pregnancy test 
must be performed to rule out pregnancy.  This is even true for women of childbearing potential 
with infrequent or irregular periods. Female subjects must agree to one of the following from 
Screening until 30 days following the lase dose of the study drug GS-9674.


Complete abstinence from intercourse of reproductive potential.  Abstinence is an acceptable 
method of contraception only when it is in line with the subject’s preferred and usual 
lifestyle. 
Or

Consistent and correct use of 1 of the following methods of birth control listed below. 
Intrauterine device (IUD) with a failure rate of <1% per year
Tubal sterilization
Essure micro-insert system (provided confirmation of success 3 months after procedure)
Vasectomy in the male partner (provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner and 
had confirmation of surgical success 3 months after procedure)
Female subjects must also refrain from egg donation and in vitro fertilization during treatment 
and until at least 30 days after the lase dose of the study drug GS-9674.
3. Contraception Requirements for Male Subjects
It is theoretically possible that a relevant systemic concentration may be achieved in a female 
partner from exposure of the male subject’s seminal fluid.  Therefore, male subjects with female 
partners of childbearing potential must use condoms during treatment and for 90 days after last 
dose of GS-9674. Additional contraception recommendations should also be considered if the 
female partner is not pregnant.
Male subjects must agree to avoid sperm donation from baseline throughout the study period and 
for 90 days after last dose of GS-9674.
4. Unacceptable Birth Control Methods
Birth control methods that are unacceptable include periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, 
ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), spermicides 
only, and lactational amenorrhea method (LAM).  Female condom and male condom should not 
be used together.

5. Procedures to be Followed in the Event of Pregnancy
Subjects will be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time during 
the study, or if they become pregnant within 30 days (90 days of partner of male subject) of last 
study drug dose. Subjects who become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant during the 
study must report the information to the investigator and discontinue study drug immediately. 
Subjects whose partner has become pregnant or suspects she is pregnant during the study must 
report the information to the investigator.  Instructions for reporting pregnancy, partner 
pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome are outlined in Section 7.6.2.1.
