Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a clinical research study to establish normal values for the infusion of a synthetic form of the hormone cholecystokinin(CCK-8) for gallbladder emptying. Cholecystokinin is released from the small bowel to stimulate the pancreas and gallbladder to help digest and absorb food. Some people have gallbladder problems and need to be tested with the synthetic cholecystokinin ( KinevacĀ®, Bracco Diagnostics, Inc.). The aim of this study is to find out how differing amounts and intravenous infusion times of CCK-8 affect gallbladder emptying. The findings in normal subjects will be used to establish normal values that can then be compared with patients with suspected gallbladder disease.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study enrolled 60 healthy volunteers from four institutions (Johns Hopkins University, Pennsylvania State University, Memorial Health University Medical Center, and Temple University. Subjects had to be healthy men or women 18-65 years old with no gastrointestinal disease as confirmed by initial screening using a modified Mayo Clinic Research Gastrointestinal Disease Screening Questionnaire, and normal results for CBC, metabolic profile, serum amylase and gallbladder ultrasonography. Women could not be enrolled if pregnant.

Subjects had 3 infusion studies at least 2 days apart within 3 weeks.
