研究概览
简要总结
The primary efficacy objective of this study is to evaluate the difference in coefficient of fat absorption (CFA) of participants treated with high dose EUR-1008 (APT-1008) versus low dose of EUR-1008 (APT-1008) in the treatment of signs and symptoms of malabsorption in participants with EPI associated with CP. This study is sponsored by Aptalis Pharma (formerly Eurand).
详细描述
After screening, eligible participants will start the placebo baseline ambulatory phase (4 days). On day 5, they will be hospitalized for three to five days, to undergo a "baseline" 72-hour CFA determination under a controlled diet and using a stool marker to indicate the beginning and end of the controlled diet period, while they continue receiving placebo treatment. At the end of the placebo baseline phase, participants will be randomized to a "high dose followed by a low dose" or to a "low dose followed by a high dose" EUR-1008 (APT-1008) dose sequence and proceed to the first crossover (treatment) phase. Each crossover (treatment) phase will consist of a stabilization period for six days at home, followed by a hospitalization of three to five days to undergo a 72-hour CFA determination using a controlled diet and using a stool marker to indicate the beginning and end of the controlled diet period.
Participants will immediately proceed from the first crossover (treatment) phase to the second without a washout period or return-to-baseline period in between phases. Participants will be stabilized at home for 6 days. Any residual lipase from the prior treatment phase is likely to be a negligible influence on the subsequent CFA determination because participants will be taking the new dose level (high or low) for six days before the beginning of sample collection for a new CFA. This interval is more than enough time for the CFA to be reflective of only the new dose.

入选标准
- •Participants are male or female
- •Participants with age over 18 years
- •Participants who have written, legally valid informed consent
- •Women of childbearing potential must be using a medically acceptable form of birth control for the 30 days prior to the beginning of the study and agree to maintain adequate birth control measures during the whole duration of the study plus an additional 30 days as well as have a negative pregnancy test at screening Visit 3 and Visit 7
- •Participants with documented diagnosis of CP by medical history and it is preferred that it is supported by imaging evidence confirming CP which include: abnormal endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP) (Cambridge Class 4), abnormal computed tomography (CT) scan (dilated main pancreatic duct, atrophy of the pancreas or calcification), abnormal ultrasound, or endoscopic ultrasound with at least 5 abnormalities noted
- •In the case of pancreatic surgery, the participant can be included with partial or distal resection of the pancreas (not due to cancer)
- •Participants with documented EPI with target fecal elastase (FE) less than or equal to 100 microgram per gram (mcg/g) of stool using the monoclonal test (pancreatic elastase 1 [PE1] by Genova Diagnostics) performed at the screening visit. The mean coefficient of variation (CV) for the FE test is 20 percent (%)

结局指标
主要结局
Percent Coefficient of Fat Absorption (CFA) of Participants Treated With High Dose EUR-1008 and Low Dose EUR-1008
时间窗: 3 to 5 days of hospital treatment in first and second intervention periods
Percent CFA was calculated as (\[fat intake - fat excretion\]/fat intake)\*100, determined in the stools collected during the 72-hour CFA determination period. Mean percent CFA was calculated for the 3 to 5 days of hospital treatment in first and second intervention periods.
次要结局
- Change From Placebo Baseline in Percent Coefficient of Fat Absorption (CFA) in High Dose EUR-1008 and Low Dose EUR-1008 During Hospital Treatment(Baseline, 3 to 5 days of hospital treatment in first and second intervention periods)
- Change From Placebo Baseline in Percent Coefficient of Nitrogen Absorption (CNA) During Hospital Treatment(Baseline, 3 to 5 days of hospital treatment in first and second intervention periods)
- Change From Placebo Baseline in Weight at End of Each Treatment Period(Baseline, end of treatment (6 days home treatment and 3-5 days hospital treatment in first and second intervention periods))
- Change From Placebo Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI) at End of Treatment(Baseline, end of treatment (6 days home treatment and 3-5 days hospital treatment in first and second intervention periods))
