A Phase 1/2 interventional study of FE203799 GLP-2 analogue and FE203799 Placebo GLP-2 analogue in Short Bowel Syndrome, sponsored by GlyPharma Therapeutics. Completed at 1 site in Denmark. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 80 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-10-26.
Sponsored by GlyPharma Therapeutics · Phase 1/2, Interventional, and Supportive care
Part A:once weekly dosing for 4 weeks in patients with short bowel syndrome who require total parenteral nutrition; patients will complete period 1 and after a 6-10 week wash-out, they will enter period 2 (active treatment and placebo); Part B: treatment period 3, is an open label extension to part A and starts after a washout of 6-10 weeks after the last dose in treatment period 2. patients are dosed once weekly for 4 weeks.
This trial is divided into 2 parts. Part A of this trial is a repeated dose, placebo controlled, double blind, randomised cross-over trial investigating safety, efficacy and PD of FE 203799 in 8-10 patients with SBS. Additionally, the plasma concentration of FE 203799 will be assessed for determination of the trough and post-dose concentration in SBS patients. The patients will receive a subcutaneous (SC) dose of 5 mg FE 203799 or placebo once weekly for 4 consecutive weeks, and after a washout period of 6-10 weeks, the alternate treatment will be administered once weekly for 4 consecutive weeks. Safety follow-up assessments will be performed 6-10 weeks after the last dose in each treatment period.
Part B of this trial, treatment period 3, is an open label extension to part A that will test a new dose. Following a washout period of 6-10 weeks after the last dose in treatment period 2, the new dose will be administered once weekly for 4 weeks. Safety follow-up assessments will be performed 4-6 weeks after the last dose in treatment period 3.
The first two administrations of trial drug in each treatment period will be performed at the clinic, while the third and fourth dose can be either self-administered by the patient or administered at the clinic if the patient prefers to travel to the site or other considerations make a site visit preferable.
Prior to each administration of trial drug, liver function parameters will be analysed and assessed. During each treatment period, patients who develop extremely high or persistently elevated liver enzymes following trial drug administration will be discontinued from the trial.
The patients will complete a diary during each treatment period with daily data on parenteral support (PS) usage, oral liquid intake at specific periods, trial drug administrations performed at home, local tolerability and adverse events (AEs).

Exclusion Criteria
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.
Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
Blood tests of how long blood takes to clot. The INR is the prothrombin time (PT) put on a common scale; about 1 is usual for someone not taking a blood thinner.
Criteria often make an exception for people on a blood thinner such as warfarin, whose INR is raised on purpose.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
