Brief Summary:
This study aims to evaluate if a 6-month course of pancrelipase (CREON) treatment improves symptoms of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) after an attack of acute pancreatitis. Diagnosis of EPI is measured by a fecal elastase value of \<200, and patients must have a qualifying symptom burden based on the EPI symptom tracker survey. Blood and stool will be analyzed as part of this study, and other surveys of health status will be used to track improvement of symptoms.
Detailed Description:
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, single-arm study of pancrelipase (CREON) in eligible outpatient adults following an episode of acute pancreatitis. Following study eligibility evaluation and informed consent, patients will complete a 7-day run-in period without any pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy and complete baseline questionnaires and assessments, followed by a 180-day treatment period with pancrelipase. The study will end after a final 30 day-post pancrelipase treatment observation period during which safety events will be collected, and EPI symptom burden as well as stool frequency and consistency will be assessed as primary outcomes.
