Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> Main Objective: The objective of the trial is to assessthe therapeutic effect of the di-peptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitor, Sitagliptin (Januvia®) for SBS patients<br> with colon in function. The efficacy is assessed through the ability of<br> sitagliptin (Januvia®) to increase intestinal absorption, reduce diarrhea<br> and the need for hyperphagia.<br> ;<br> Secondary Objective: To test possible biomarkers for determination of intestinal adaptation, p-citrulline,<br> p-paracetamol absorptions test are performed.<br> ;Primary end point(s): Faecal weight/diarrhea;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Before and at the end of 8 weeks of treatment with Januvia
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> Secondary end point(s): Change in:<br> urinary volume<br> oral intake<br> parenteral volume support<br> Fluid composite effect<br> Body weight<br> Body composition (DEXA)<br> Mesenteric blood flow<br> ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Before and at the end of 8 weeks of treatment with Januvia
