Diabetes drug trial offers hope for rare gut disorder patients

NCT ID NCT07297238

Summary

This study is testing whether a GLP-1 medication (semaglutide), commonly used for diabetes, can help improve gut function in adults with short bowel syndrome who depend on intravenous nutrition. Twenty participants will receive either the medication or a placebo for four weeks alongside their standard care. Researchers will measure changes in gut barrier function, nutrient absorption, and whether patients can reduce their need for IV feeding.
