Domperidone Expanded Access Treatment Program

• Conditions: Gastroparesis

• Registration Number: NCT04996134
• Lead Sponsor: Wake Forest University Health Sciences

Brief Summary

To allow the use of domperidone by patients with gastrointestinal disorders who have failed standard therapy.

Detailed Description

To provide oral domperidone to patients ≥12 years of age where, according to the investigator's judgment, a prokinetic effect is needed for the relief of refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease with upper gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, gastroparesis, and chronic constipation in patients whom the potential benefit may outweigh the risk of cardiovascular adverse reactions including QT prolongation, Torsades de Pointes, and death.
