First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 11, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study tests whether a daily injection of teduglutide can repair intestinal damage in undernourished women aged 18-35 with environmental enteric dysfunction (EED), a condition that causes poor nutrient absorption. Participants will receive nutritional support, then daily shots for 30 days, with biopsies before and after to measure gut healing. The goal is to see if this approach can improve gut health and guide future treatments.
