Efficacy And Safety Evaluation of Glepaglutide in Treatment of SBS

A Phase 3, international, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to
evaluate the efficacy and safety of glepaglutide subcutaneous (SC) injections in patients
with short bowel syndrome (SBS).

Inclusion Criteria:

- Informed consent obtained before any trial-related activity.

- Diagnosis of SBS defined as remaining small bowel in continuity of estimated less than
200 cm and considered stable with regard to PS need. No restorative surgery planned in
the trial period.

- Requiring PS at least 3 days per week and maintains a stable PS volume for at least 2
weeks.

- In case of remnant colon: documented colonoscopy which does not give rise to any
safety concerns.

Exclusion Criteria:

- More than 2 SBS-related or PS-related hospitalizations within 6 months prior to
Screening. No SBS-related hospitalizations within 30 days prior to randomization.

- Poorly controlled inflammatory bowel disease that is moderately or severely active or
fistula interfering with measurements or examinations required in the trial.

- Bowel obstruction.

- Known radiation enteritis or significant villous atrophy.

- Cardiac disease defined as: decompensated heart failure (New York Heart Association
[NYHA] Class III-IV), unstable angina pectoris, and/or myocardial infarction within
the last 6 months prior to Screening.

- Clinically significant abnormal ECG.

- Repeated systolic blood pressure measurements > 180 mm Hg.

- Human immunodeficiency virus positive, acute liver disease, or unstable chronic liver
disease.

- Any history of colon cancer. History of any other cancers unless disease-free state
for at least 5 years.

- Estimated creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min.

- Severe hepatic impairment.

- Use of GLP-1, GLP-2, human growth hormone, somatostatin, or analogs thereof, within 3
months prior to Screening.

- Use of dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitors within 3 months prior to Screening.

- Unstable systemic immunosuppressive therapy within 3 months prior to Screening.

- Unstable biological therapy within 6 months prior to Screening.

- Females of childbearing potential, who are pregnant, breast-feeding, intend to become
pregnant or are not using highly effective contraceptive methods.

- Previous exposure to glepaglutide.

- Current, or within 30 days prior to Screening, participation in another interventional
clinical trial that includes administration of an active compound.

- Any condition or disease or circumstance that in the Investigator's opinion would put
the patient at any undue risk, prevent completion of the trial, or interfere with the
analysis of the trial results.
