Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adult, ambulatory male and female subjects
- Provision of signed and dated informed consent form (ICF)
- Age ≥ 18 years and ≤ 80 years
Stable SBS of:
- Non-surgical origin; OR
- Surgical origin where the last surgical ileal resection was performed at least 6 months prior to enrolment
- Partial, Home Parenteral Nutrition and/or parenteral fluids are allowed, at a maximum frequency of 6 times a week throughout the trial, as long as the regimen has been stable for at least 2 weeks prior to screening and is expected to remain unchanged during the study
- At least 50 % of the colon being intact
- Intact duodenum
- BMI ≥ 18
- Presence of stable chronic diarrhea for at least 3 months prior to enrolment as evidenced by medical history
Presence of stable chronic diarrhea during the 2-week screening diary period before randomization, as evidenced by completion of a screening diary demonstrating:
- Mean daily production of at least 3 soft or watery stools (BSFS scores 6 or 7); or
- More than 3 bowel movements per day on average with >25% of them being BSFS type 6 or 7
- Stated willingness and ability to comply with all study procedures, including daily recording of bowel movements and BSFS in the patient diaries, and availability for the duration of the study
- Clinical laboratory values within the laboratory's stated normal range; if not within this range, they must be without clinical significance, as determined by the investigator
Female subjects must meet one of the following criteria:
a) Participant is of childbearing potential and agrees to use one of the accepted contraceptive regimens from at least 30 days prior to the first study treatment administration through to at least 30 days after the last dose of the study treatment. An acceptable method of contraception includes one of the following:
- Abstinence from heterosexual intercourse
- Systemic contraceptives (combined birth control pills, injectable/implant/insertable hormonal birth control products, transdermal patch)
- Intrauterine device (with or without hormones)
- Condom with spermicide
b) Participants of non-childbearing potential, defined as surgically sterile (i.e. has undergone complete hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy) or is in a menopausal state (i.e. at least 1 year without menses prior to the first study drug administration) are eligible
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients with known or suspected intestinal strictures of clinical relevance as judged by the Investigator
- Active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or fistula during the screening period as judged by the Investigator
- Crohn's disease patients not being in clinical remission for the last 12 weeks prior to randomization
- Diarrhea caused by other causes than SBS
- Presence of clinically significant steatorrhea, requiring pancreatic enzymes supplementation
- Presence of complete biliary obstruction
- Presence of active cancer (except resected cutaneous basal or squamous cell carcinoma and except in situ cervical cancer) and/or need to receive chemotherapy or radiotherapy during the study
- History of allergic reaction to cholestyramine or any excipient of the investigational drug product or placebo, or packaging components
- Females who are lactating at screening
- Females who are pregnant according to the pregnancy test at screening or prior to the first study treatment administration
- Significant history (at least 3 consecutive months in the year prior to Screening) of drug dependency or alcohol abuse (> 3 units of alcohol per day, intake of excessive alcohol, acute or chronic)
- Subjects who took an Investigational Product (IP) in the 30 days prior to the first study drug administration
- Any other clinically significant condition that is considered by the principal investigator as being susceptible to put the patient at greater safety risk, influence response to study product, or interfere with study assessments.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in the Weekly Frequency of Bowel Movements Measured Between Baseline and the Second Week of Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 2 of treatment (Days 8 to 14, and Days 36 to 42)
|
Change in the weekly frequency of bowel movements measured between baseline and the second week of treatment.
Baseline is defined as the second week of screening for treatment period 1 and second week of washout for treatment period 2.
|
Baseline and Week 2 of treatment (Days 8 to 14, and Days 36 to 42)
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Total Number of Bowel Movements for the Whole 2-week Treatment Period
Time Frame: Days 1 to 14 and Days 29 to 42
|
Days 1 to 14 and Days 29 to 42
|
|
Mean Daily Stool Form Score According to the BSFS (Bristol Stool Form Scale), Measured During the Second Week of Treatment
Time Frame: Days 8 to 14, and Days 36 to 42
|
The BSFS classifies the form of human feces into seven categories (Type 1 to Type 7) based on stool shape and consistency.
Types or scores of 1 and 2 indicate constipation, with 3 and 4 being the ideal stools as they are easy to defecate while not containing excess liquid, 5 tending towards diarrhea, and 6 and 7 indicate diarrhea.
|
Days 8 to 14, and Days 36 to 42
|
Mean Daily Dose of Loperamide in mg, if Used, During the Second Week of Treatment
Time Frame: Days 8 to 14, and Days 36 to 42
|
Days 8 to 14, and Days 36 to 42
