Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Creon micro in children younger than four years with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency Drug: Pancreatin Phase 3

Detailed Description:
A prospective open-label, multi-center study evaluating safety and tolerability of Creon Micro in pediatric subjects from at least one month to less than four years of age with Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency (PEI) due to Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Referring to the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) pediatric age criteria for the purpose of the study, subjects are categorized as infants and toddlers (< 2 years) and children, (2 years to < 4 years). In total, 40 subjects will be enrolled (20 subjects in each age subgroup). Subjects receive their prescribed pancreatic enzyme supplementation at the individual dose until start of treatment with Creon Micro, if the subjects were on pancreatic enzyme supplementation before start of the study. Subjects will be treated with Creon Micro during the study. The treatment duration is 3 months.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Body Weight [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    change from baseline at day 84

  2. Height [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    change from baseline at day 84

  3. Stool Frequency [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Average daily stool frequency during treatment period: Number of bowel movements per day

  4. Stool Consistency [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Assessment of stool consistency by the caregiver on a daily basis: hard, formed/normal, soft, watery

  5. Subject's Acceptance of Treatment [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Acceptance to Creon Micro. The caregiver should give his/her opinion based on the following scale: very good, good, moderate, and unsatisfactory.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Subjects With Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 4 months ]
  2. Pulse [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Change from Baseline at Day 84

  3. Number of Participants With Findings During Physical Examination [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    A physical examination was conducted by the physician. All abnormal findings were recorded as medical histories if present prior to start of study drug or as AEs otherwise. There was no separate documentation of physical examination findings in this study.

  4. Number of Participants With Clinical Relevant Safety Laboratory Values [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    (hematology: hemoglobin, hematocrit, RBC count, WBC count, platelet count; biochemistry: glucose (fasting), creatinine, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, ALAT (alanine amino transferase), ASAT (aspartate amino transferase), gamma-glutamyl transferase, uric acid, calcium, phosphate, potassium, serum pancreatic lipase; urinalysis (dipstick): glucose, blood, albumin, pH)
