NCT ID NCT06420297
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests the long-term safety of a nasal spray called carbetocin for people with Prader-Willi syndrome who experience severe, constant hunger (hyperphagia). About 160 participants who completed a previous study will receive the spray three times daily. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and tolerable over an extended period.
