A Study of Brenipatide for Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C)

This study is looking at brenipatide (LY3537031) for people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome-Constipation (IBS-C). Researchers want to see how safe and effective brenipatide is, and what side effects might occur, compared to a placebo (an inactive substance). Brenipatide will be given as an injection under the skin. You may be able to join if you are 18 to 75 years old, have IBS-C based on specific criteria, and experience certain levels of abdominal pain. The study will measure success by looking at the percentage of participants who have a good weekly response to treatment over several weeks. The current status of this study is unclear.

Study design
This interventional study plans to enroll 342 participants. It will compare brenipatide (LY3537031) to a placebo.
What's involved
The study will last approximately 35 weeks. The study drug will be administered subcutaneously (under the skin).
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The primary endpoint measures response from Week 9 to Week 16.
