A Double-Blind Multi-Dose Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic Study of Teduglutide

May 24, 2021 updated by: Shire
The primary objective of the study was to study the safety and tolerability of teduglutide following a once or possibly twice daily subcutaneous injection for eight consecutive days in healthy subjects. A secondary objective was to study the pharmacokinetics of teduglutide following a once or possibly twice daily injection for eight consecutive days in healthy subjects.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Healthy subjects are enrolled once they have been screened and it is determined they qualify. The subjects are randomized to either placebo or the dose of teduglutide as outlined by the protocol at a 1:3 ratio. They will be injected with investigational product for eight consecutive days, with measurements taken including safety.
