Episode 48: Ricky and Audra Speak about the Exciting New Treatments for PSC
July 8, 2026
In this episode, Niall speaks with Ricky Safer and Audra Flemming from PSC Partners about a remarkable moment for the PSC community: Ricky’s recognition by AASLD, growing research momentum, and the power of patient-led advocacy.
They discuss new developments in PSC and cholangiocarcinoma blood tests, the work of the PSC Partners International Collaborative Research Network, and why patient voices are becoming central to research and clinical trial design. Audra and Ricky also share news about the PSC Partners Conference taking place this November in Denver, in partnership with AASLD.
Niall admits he kept saying “wow” during the conversation, because there was so much hopeful news: international collaboration, patient-led research, progress in symptom-focused drug development, and a community that continues to shape the future of PSC care.
