What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 24hr total stool output volume

    The primary outcome measure is 24hr total stool output volume over the double-blind treatment period compared to baseline.

    Measured: 10 weeks (including 6 weeks follow up)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Assess the safety and tolerability of vurolenatide

    Assessment of Adverse events - The frequency of spontaneously reported AEs will be assessed for each treatment group separately by System Organ Class and Preferred Term; and vital signs, physical examination results, clinical laboratory tests results will be evaluated.

    Measured: 10 weeks (including 6 weeks follow up)

  2. To assess change from Baseline in Quality of Life

    Change from baseline in Quality of Life as measured by the SF-36 instrument over the double-blind treatment period

    Measured: 10 weeks (including 6 weeks follow up)

  3. To assess the change from baseline in Patient Global Impression

    Change from baseline in patient reported global SBS improvement over the double-blind treatment period

    Measured: 10 weeks (including 6 weeks follow up)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Vurolenatide 50mg/PBO, Vurolenatide 100mg/PBO and Vurolenatide 50/50 mg in people with Short Bowel Syndrome, run by 9 Meters Biopharma, Inc. at 6 sites in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 15 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 stopped early (reason given: Trial terminated by Sponsor). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

24hr total stool output volume (time frame: 10 weeks (including 6 weeks follow up)). 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 20 Dec 2022.
