Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The inhibition of Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 should increase the concentration of glucagone-like peptide 1 and 2, and the increase of the latter should increase the absorptive capacity of the intestine.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The only effective (to some extend drug) in short bowel syndrome is Glucacone-like peptide 4. Its price is, however, to high to really change the treatment strategy for intestinal failure. The Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, which a drug which is commonly used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus type II, should increase the concentration of glucagone-like peptide 1 and 2, and the increase of the latter should increase the absorptive capacity of the intestine.
