A Study for Those with Chronic Pancreatitis

Official Title A PHASE 1, SINGLE DOSE PK AND SAFETY STUDY WITH NI-03 FOLLOWED BY A PHASE 2, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PARALLEL-GROUP DOSE-RANGING STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF NI-03 COMPARED TO PLACEBO IN SUBJECTS WITH CHRONIC PANCREATITIS

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to learn if a study drug called NI-03 (also known as Camostat) can help people with chronic pancreatitis. We want to find out what effects, good or bad, the study drug has on the disease. It has been approved in Japan and has been available by prescription for the treatment of the acute pain associated with chronic pancreatitis. The study drug will not be approved for sale in the United States until tests from studies like this one show that it is safe and effective.
