First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new drug called TD-1211 in 69 adults who had constipation because of opioid painkillers. The goal was to see if the drug is safe and helps people have more bowel movements. Participants stopped using other laxatives during the study to see how well TD-1211 worked on its own.
