Brief Summary

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

Liprotamase powder is a non-porcine, soluble and stable mixture of three digestive enzymes including lipase, protease, and amylase. The purpose of the present study is to provide additional efficacy and safety data compared to approved, porcine-derived, enterically-coated and encapsulated pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. The primary efficacy endpoint of the study will be comparative efficacy measured as the change in the coefficient of fat absorption (CFA) in Cystic Fibrosis patients with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI).

Liprotamase is stable in stomach and digestive fluids allowing administration in a variety of convenient formulations and with a number of foods without enteric coating.

Detailed Description

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

Porcine derived enzymes are used for pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Liprotamase is a biotechnology-derived enzyme replacement without enteric coating. This is an open-label, assessor blind, parallel group, multicenter, international trial to evaluate the noninferiority of liprotamase and pancrelipase in CF patients aged ≥7 years with pancreatic insufficiency. Subjects were randomized to liprotamase or pancrelipase, dose-matched to pre-study lipase doses. The lower bound of the 95% confidence interval (CI) for noninferiority was -15% for treatment difference in change from baseline coefficient of fat absorption (CFA).
