Initiated in early October 2018, the study is a placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind clinical trial with fixed-dose injections.
The trial is being conducted at approximately 40 investigational sites in the United States, Canada, and Europe and will ultimately enroll 129 patients with SBS.
Because people with SBS often cannot absorb enough nutrients, the trial will help determine if parenteral support volume can be reduced.
