Gastrointestinal Mucosal Findings in Patients Receiving Mycophenolic Acid (MPA) as Demonstrated by Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy (SBCE)
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) and myfortic for Gastrointestinal Lesions and Signs and Symptoms, Digestive. Completed, enrolled 23 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn more about symptoms and gastrointestinal lesions associated with taking myfortic® by switching patients to a delayed release formulation that is developed to alleviate GI symptoms. A comparison of the frequency and severity of GI symptoms observed in patients treated with MMF (cellcept®) after conversion to myfortic® will be measured by using a self-assessed questionnaire called Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS). To prove the incidence and improvement of GI lesions in patients treated with MMF (cellcept®) after conversion to myfortic® will be measured by using Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy (SBCE).
