  • 4. Subject fulfills the modified Rome III Diagnostic Criteria for Childhood Functional Constipation (Child/Adolescent; Section H3a) as follows:
  • Must include two or more of the following in a child with a developmental age of at least 4 years*: with insufficient criteria for diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)*:
  • * Two or fewer defecations in the toilet per week

  • * History of painful or hard bowel movements

  • * History of large diameter stools which may obstruct the toilet
  • * Criteria fulfilled at least once per week for at least 2 months prior to diagnosis.
  • 5. If subject is taking a concomitant medication (prescribed or over-the-counter) that affects gastrointestinal motility, he/she must discontinue use at the time of the Screening Visit (Visit 1); these medications include:
  • a. Cholinesterase inhibitors; anti-spasmodic, anti-diarrheal, anti-constipation, or prokinetic agents; laxative agents (e.g., PEG 3350), including homeopathic remedies;
  • b. Tricyclic antidepressants; and/or c. Any medication, at the discretion of the Investigator, known to cause constipation or constipation-related symptoms.
  • Any medication, at the discretion of the Investigator, known to relieve or cause constipation or constipation-related symptoms, and which the Investigator, based on the medical history of the subject, suspects to be a contributing factor to the patient*s chronic constipation, or may otherwise confound the evaluation of treatment response.
  • Exceptions: Treatment with anticholinergic agents, SSRIs, SNRIs, or MAO inhibitors is allowed if a stable dose has been used for at least 30 days prior to the Screening Visit and not likely to change during the study.
  • 6. Subject (and, if necessary, parent/legal guardian) must be willing and able to use or administer recommended (rectal and/or oral) rescue medications if needed.
  • 7. If subject is taking a fibre supplement (e.g., Metamucil®, PerDiem®, Fybogel), usage must have been at a stable dose and schedule for at least 30 days prior to the Screening Visit (Visit 1) and not likely to change during the study.
  • 8. Subject and his/her parent/legal guardian must be willing and able to fill out his/her own diary.
  • 9. Subject daily diary is at least 70% compliant for evening/end-of-day assessments during the Screening period.
  • 10. Subject daily diary indicates an average of less than 3 spontaneous bowel movements (SBMs) per week during the Screening period.
  • 11. Subject has at least one of the following for at least 25% of SBMs during each week of the screening period (as reported in the daily diary):
  • * Modified Bristol Stool Scale Type 1 or 2; and/or
  • * Some to extreme straining associated with SBMs.
  • Note: For subjects with no reported SBMs during the Screening Period, it is not necessary to meet criteria for bowel movement characteristics, e.g., hard or very hard stools.;All study subjects who are 6-9 or 14-17 years old and meet the additional DXA evaluation sub-study entry c

排除标准

  • 1. Subject*s constipation is known to be attributed to any of the following:
  • a. Physical/Mental/Cognitive * any condition, other than functional constipation, that in the Investigator*s opinion would interfere with meaningful study participation or evaluation.
  • b. Anatomic * associated with a mechanical bowel obstruction (tumour, hernia, obstructive polyps, etc.), or pseudo-obstruction.
  • c. Neurological * associated with spinal cord disorder, congenital disorder, or Guillain-Barre syndrome.
  • d. Endocrine/Metabolic * associated with hypothyroidism, diabetes, hypercalcaemia, or hypokalaemia.
  • e. Inflammatory bowel disease (e.g., Crohn*s disease, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease).
  • f. Medication * associated with the use of medication known to cause constipation.
  • 2. Subject is a candidate for, or undergone abdominal surgery including bowel resection, colectomy, gastric bypass surgery (exceptions: appendectomy, cholecystectomy, benign polypectomy and inguinal hernia).
  • 3. Subject has any gastrointestinal (GI) condition, other than constipation, affecting GI motility or defecation.
  • 4. Subject has Hirschsprung*s disease.
  • 5. Subject reports episodes of faecal incontinence that are not associated with retention of stool (e.g., non-retentive faecal incontinence as defined by the Rome III Diagnostic Criteria).
  • 6. Subject has current evidence of untreated faecal impaction at the time of screening.
  • 7. Subject has experienced an unexplained significant weight loss.
  • 8. Subject has a medical/surgical condition that might interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of the study medication.
  • 9. Subject has an uncontrolled cardiovascular, liver or lung disease, neurologic or psychiatric disorder, or other systemic disease, which the Investigator feels is clinically significant and would limit the subject*s ability to participate in the trial.
  • 10. Subject is currently using an indwelling peritoneal catheter.
  • 11. Subject has impaired renal function identified at the Screening Visit (i.e., serum creatinine concentration > 1.5 times the median of normal range).
  • 12. Subject has abnormal laboratory test (haematology, urinalysis, or blood chemistry), which in the Investigator*s opinion is clinically significant, unexplained, and would limit the subject*s ability to participate in the trial.
  • 13. Subject has current evidence of, or has been treated for, cancer within the past 5 years.
  • 14. Subject (female of childbearing potential) has a positive pregnancy test, refuses/unwilling to undergo pregnancy testing, and/or does not agree to use protocol-specified contraceptive for the duration of the study.

  • 16. Subject has received an investigational medication within 30 days prior to the Screening Visit (Visit 1), or plans to participate in another clinical trial during the study period.
  • 17. Subject has received AMITIZA, lubiprostone, SPI-0211, or RU-0211 at any time prior to participation in this study.;Exclusion Criteria*:
