  5. Change Over Time in After Midday (PM) Itch Reported Outcome (ItchRO[Obs]) Score [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 26 ]
    Change over time in PM ItchRO scores will be reported.

  6. Disappearance of Pruritus as Measured by Observer Itch Reported Outcome (ItchRO[Obs]) [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 26 ]
    Compare the percentage of participants on active treatment vs. placebo of participants who experience disappearance of pruritus as measured by ItchRO(Obs).

  7. Improvement in Height [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 26 ]
    Number of participants on active treatment vs. placebo with a height z-score change from baseline >0.

  8. Improvement in Weight [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 26 ]
    Number of participants on active treatment vs. placebo with a weight z-score change from baseline >0.

  9. Change From Baseline in Nutritional Status as Measured by Mid-arm Circumference [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26 ]
    Compare the change in nutritional status as measured by mid-arm circumference in participants on active treatment vs. placebo.

  10. Change From Baseline in Nutritional Status as Measured by Triceps Skin Fold [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26 ]
    Compare the change in nutritional status as measured by triceps skin fold in participants on active treatment vs. placebo.

  11. Change From Baseline in Clinician Scratch Scale (CSS) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26 ]
    Compare the change in Clinician Scratch Scale score in participants on active treatment vs. placebo.

  12. Change From Baseline in Quality of Life as Measured by Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26 ]
    Compare the change from baseline of PedsQL in participants on active treatment vs. placebo.

  13. Change From Baseline in Quality of Sleep as Measured by Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26 ]
    Compare the change from baseline of CSHQ in participants on active treatment vs. placebo.

  14. Normalization or Meaningful Reduction From Baseline of Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 26 ]
    Number of participants whose ALT normalizes on treatment or has decreased >=50%.

  15. Normalization or Meaningful Decrease From Baseline of Total Bilirubin [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 26 ]
    Number of participants whose total bilirubin normalizes on treatment or has decreased >=50%.

  16. Change From Baseline in Biomarkers of Bile Acid Synthesis [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26 ]
    Change from baseline in biomarkers of bile acid synthesis (serum 7 alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one [C4]).

  17. Evaluate the safety of SHP625 [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 26 ]
    Adverse events, changes in vital signs, laboratory, and other safety parameters will be compared between participants on active treatment vs. placebo.

  18. Plasma Levels of Maralixibat Over Time [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6, 10, 14, 18, 22 and 26 ]
    Systemic concentrations of maralixibat in plasma will be assessed.
