  • Female subjects must be on acceptable method of contraception for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to the start of the trial; Acceptable methods of contraception would be a barrier form of contraception, oral contraceptive pill, contraceptive injection or implant or intrauterine implanted device.

Who cannot join

  • Alcohol or drug abuse in last year
  • > 4 hospitalisations related to short bowel or its treatment over the previous year
  • Any hospitalisation 30 days prior to screening
  • Introduction or dose adjustment of immunosuppressant for inflammatory bowel disease within 6 months, or treatment with biologics within the past 6 months (systemic corticosteroids, methotrexate, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, sirolimus, MMF, infliximab, adalimumab, vedolizumab)
  • BMI < 19 kg/m2 or > 27kg/m2 (An upper cut-off BMI of > 27kg/m2 has been chosen, as in these patients, there is often a desire to reduce BMI which will conflict with the study design by adding another variable)
  • Scleroderma/radiation enteritis/coeliacs disease/refractory or tropical sprue
  • Liver and renal function outside the inclusion range

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Liraglutide Pen Injector [Victoza] in people with Short Bowel Syndrome, run by Imperial College London at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Improvement in parenteral support (time frame: 20 weeks post start of drug). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Aug 2020.
