简要总结
A compassionate use protocol to provide Omegaven to pediatric patients with parenteral nutrition (PN) dependence and parenteral nutrition associated liver disease (PNALD).
详细描述
Omegaven is an intravenous fat emulsion (IFE) comprised of omega-3 fatty acids derived from fish oil. It will be used in an open label compassionate use treatment protocol, as an alternative to soybean oil (omega-6), as the sole IFE source of parenteral nutrition in an effort to reduce and/or reverse parenteral nutrition associated liver disease. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Omegaven use in pediatric patients with PN dependence and PNALD.
