Ironwood And Forest Present Positive Phase 2b Study Results For Linaclotide In Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome With Constipation
Ironwood
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (formerly Microbia, Inc.) and Forest Laboratories,
Inc. (NYSE: FRX) announced the presentation of results from a Phase
2b study assessing linaclotide's safety and efficacy in 420 patients with
irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). Analysis of the data
indicates that once- daily oral dosing of linaclotide, across a range of
doses, significantly reduced abdominal pain and significantly improved
constipation symptoms in patients with IBS-C throughout the 12-week study
period. Further, the safety and tolerability profile support advancing this
novel compound into Phase 3 clinical trials. The study results were
presented in a plenary session at the American College of
Gastroenterology (ACG) 2008 Annual Scientific Meeting in Orlando, Fla.
"Patients with IBS-C are in need of effective and well tolerated
therapies. The results of this study showing improvement in abdominal pain
and constipation are encouraging," said Douglas Drossman, M.D., Professor
of Medicine and Psychiatry at UNC School of Medicine, Division of
Gastroenterology and Hepatology and Co-Director of the UNC Center for
Functional GI & Motility Disorders, University of North Carolina at Chapel
Hill, N.C.
