Brief Summary

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

S09A is a Phase 4, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel study examining the efficacy and safety of a Sucraid (sacrosidase) Oral Solution in comparison to a placebo in 150-200 subjects with chronic diarrhea possibly attributable to sucrase deficiency.

Treatment

Subjects randomized to the active treatment arm will take Sucraid, 2 mL (17,000 IU) with every meal or snack, administered orally following dilution with 2 to 4 ounces (60 to 120 mL) of water or milk (either cold or at room temperature). The study treatment period is one week.

3. Subject has known hypersensitivity to papain, glycerol, or yeast.
4. Subject has received bovine serum in the last year.
5. Subject has previous history of Sucraid use.
6. Subject has taken any prebiotic or probiotic within 5 days prior to Visit 2 and does not agree to refrain from taking them during the study.
7. Subject is female and is pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.
8. Subject has known uncontrolled systemic disease.
9. Subject has prior diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.
10. Subject has history of bowel resection.
