Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Creon

Drug: Creon
Creon 25000 (2 capsules per meal 3 times per day and 1 capsule/snack 2 times per day) during 12 weeks

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

Drug: Creon 25000 matching Placebo
Creon 25000 placebo matching capsules (2 capsules per meal 3 times per day and 1 capsule/snack 2 times per day) during 12 weeks

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Recovery rate of 13CO2 (carbon dioxide with stable isotope of carbon) [from baseline up to the week 12 visit]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in nutritional parameters [from baseline up to the week 12 visit]

    fat soluble vitamins (D and E), retinol-binding protein, albumin, pre-albumin, magesium and calcium will be measured.

  2. Change in HbA1c [from baseline up to the week 12 visit]

  3. Change in quality of life assessed via a questionnaire Gastrointestinal-Quality of Life Index (GIQL) [from baseline up to the week 12 visit]

  4. Change in clinical global impression of disease symptoms [from baseline up to the week 12 visit]

    disease symptoms will be rated by the subject according a rating scale

Other Outcome Measures

  1. vital signs [from baseline up to the week 12 visit]

    blood pressure and heart rate, body weight and BMI

  2. routine safety laboratory [from baseline up to the week 12 visit]

    Hematology, biochemistry and a urine pregnancy test will be performed
