NCT ID NCT07569419
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how linaclotide, a drug for constipation, affects fluid in the gut. Researchers will use MRI scans to see where the drug works in the small and large intestines. The goal is to learn more about its effects, which could help design future studies for conditions like cystic fibrosis. Healthy volunteers aged 18-60 will take the drug or a placebo and have MRI scans.
