Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the long-term (24 weeks) efficacy of prucalopride versus placebo in subjects aged 18 years and older with chronic constipation.


Clinical Trial Description

In this phase IV trial a total of 340 subjects (170 subjects per treatment group), with chronic constipation, are planned to be randomly assigned to double-blind treatment. The trial duration for a subject can be 26 to 28 weeks in total, including a 2- to 4-week run-in phase followed by a 24-week double-blind treatment phase. The patient will complete an e-diary. Adult subjects (≥18 to <65 years of age) will take 2 mg prucalopride or matching placebo throughout the entire 24-week treatment period. Elderly subjects (≥65 years of age) will start at a dose of 1 mg prucalopride or matching placebo. In case of insufficient response the daily dose has to be increased to 2 mg (i.e. changed to 2 mg prucalopride or matching placebo). ;
