7Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Open Label 6-11 years of age: Eluxadoline 50mgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Eluxadoline two 25mg tablets, oral administration, twice daily with food. Take at approximately the same time each day.
Group II: Open Label 12-17 years of age: Eluxadoline 100 mgExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Eluxadoline one 100mg tablet, oral administration, twice daily with food. May use 25mg tablets to administer 100mg dose. Take at approximately the same time each day.
Group III: Double Blind 6-11 years of age: Eluxadoline 50mgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Blinding will be accomplished via administration of a constant number of oral tablets in each age group (6 to 11 years of age and 12 to 17 years of age) where all participants in an age group will receive the same total number of oral tablets at each administration. Phase 2 completers who choose to remain on double-blind eluxadoline and received placebo in the lead-in Phase 2 study 3030-202-002 will be assigned to double-blind eluxadoline 25 mg BID
Group IV: Double Blind 6-11 years of age: Eluxadoline 25mgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Blinding will be accomplished via administration of a constant number of oral tablets in each age group (6 to 11 years of age and 12 to 17 years of age) where all participants in an age group will receive the same total number of oral tablets at each administration. Phase 2 completers who choose to remain on double-blind eluxadoline and received placebo in the lead-in Phase 2 study 3030-202-002 will be assigned to double-blind eluxadoline 25 mg BID
Group V: Double Blind 12-17 years of age: Eluxadoline 50mgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Blinding will be accomplished via administration of a constant number of oral tablets in each age group (6 to 11 years of age and 12 to 17 years of age) where all participants in an age group will receive the same total number of oral tablets at each administration.

Is 100mg Eluxadoline a common dosage for this type of medication?

"At the moment, there are 3 different trials underway that involve 100mg Eluxadoline. Out of those 3, 2 have progressed to Phase 3. Even though most of the trials for 100mg Eluxadoline take place in Cleveland, Ohio,130 locations across America are running these sorts of tests."

Answered by AI

Would patients who are elderly be able to safely participate in this clinical trial?

"This particular clinical trial is only testing the efficacy of the medication on patients aged 6 to 17. Out of the 1087 trials for people over 65 and 415 trials for those under 18, this is one of the latter."

Answered by AI

What are the Eluxadoline risks for people at the 100mg dosage?

"Eluxadoline has been studied in Phase 3 trials, meaning that there is some data supporting efficacy and multiple rounds of data supporting safety. Our team rates the safety of 100mg Eluxadoline as a 3 on our 1-to-3 scale."
