A Multicenter, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo- Controlled, Phase II Study to Evaluate Velusetrag Effects on Gastric Emptying in Subjects With Diabetic or Idiopathic Gastroparesis
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, incomplete block, three period fixed
sequence crossover, multicenter, placebo-controlled study. The study will assess three oral
doses of velusetrag (5 mg, 15 mg, and/or 30 mg) or placebo, administered once daily in three
periods of 1-week duration each, with a 1-week washout period between treatment periods, in
subjects with diabetic or idiopathic gastroparesis.
Study 0093 will evaluate the effect of velusetrag in subjects with diabetic or idiopathic
gastroparesis by assessing changes in gastric emptying.

abdominal pain, retching or vomiting) for at least 3 months prior to Screening
- Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18 and 35 kg/m2, inclusive
- Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI-2W) composite score ≥2 and ≤4 at Screening
- Delayed gastric emptying, defined as a gastric emptying half-time (GE t1/2) > 160
minutes as determined by [13C]-octanoate breath test, at Screening
- Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) obstruction ruled out by endoscopy or other imaging
reasonably proximal to the diagnosis of gastroparesis
Exclusion Criteria:
- Acute severe gastroenteritis within 2 weeks prior to Screening
- History of gastric outlet obstruction

- Hospitalization for treatment of gastroparesis or complications of diabetes within 4
weeks prior to Screening
- Presence of thyroid dysfunction not controlled by treatment. Subjects with abnormal
