This study investigates the effects of an investigational medication on children with short bowel syndrome who need parenteral support. Short bowel syndrome is a condition where a significant portion of the small intestine is missing or not working properly, leading to difficulties in absorbing nutrients.
Participants in the study will be monitored for safety, tolerability, and how their bodies respond to the investigational medication. The study will involve various assessments to understand the medication's impact on the condition.
- Who can participate: This study is for children aged X to Y who have short bowel syndrome and rely on parenteral support for nutrition.
- Study details: Participants will receive either the investigational medication or a placebo, which is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medication but does not contain any medicine. The effects on their health and nutrient absorption will be closely monitored.
