Dear Mr. Peetz:

        We have reviewed your registration statement and have the following
comment. In some
of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with information so we may better
understand
your disclosure.

       Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement
and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe our comment applies to your facts
and
circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why
in your
response.

       After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and the
information you
provide in response to this comment, we may have additional comments.

Registration Statement on Form S-1

Business
Our Clinical Trials of Maralixibat in PFIC
Phase 2 INDIGO Trial, page 97

1.     We refer to your revised disclosures on pages 98-100, which indicate
that certain PFIC2
       patients were unlikely to respond to treatment, and that PFIC2 patients
that had a non-
       truncating mutation in the PFIC2 gene had the greatest reductions in sBA
and pruritus.
       However, elsewhere in your prospectus you refer more generally to PFIC2
patients, such
       as your statements on page 97 that "profound and durable reductions in
sBA" were seen in
       PFIC2 patients at 48 weeks, on page 3 that multi-parameter responses
were observed in
       PFIC2 patients, and on page 1 that you are initially focused on the
PFIC2 population,
       which is approximately 60% of the PFIC patient population. Please
clarify your

      statements. If your focus will actually be on a further subset of the
PFIC2 patient
      population (e.g., the non-truncating PFIC2 patient population), please
revise your
      disclosures throughout to clarify this distinction.
        We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action
or absence of
action by the staff.

       Refer to Rules 460 and 461 regarding requests for acceleration. Please
allow adequate
time for us to review any amendment prior to the requested effective date of
the registration
statement.

       You may contact Paul Cline at 202-551-3851 or Angela Connell at
202-551-3426 if you

any other
questions.
