- ‖ A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-treatment, crossover study (ZENPEP Study 1) in 34 patients with EPI due to CF aged 7 to 23 years. Patients were randomized to ZENPEP or placebo for 6 to 7 days of treatment, followed by crossover to the alternate treatment for 6 to 7 days. All patients consumed >100 g of fat per day. The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean difference in CFA between ZENPEP and placebo, which was measured from a 72-hour stool collection during both treatments. The use of enzymes other than ZENPEP and drugs affecting gastric pH or motility was not allowed during the trial.
- CFA=coefficient of fat absorption.
