Multicenter Randomized Parallel Group Phase III Study Comparing the Bowel Cleansing Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of NER1006 Versus Trisulfate Solution Using 2-Day Split-Dosing Regimen in Adults

Completed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Colon Cancer, Colorectal Carcinoma, Colon Cleansing

In brief

This study evaluates the efficacy, safety and tolerability of NER1006 versus Trisulfate Solution (TS) in adult patients requiring bowel cleansing prior to any procedure that requires a clean bowel, using a 2-Day evening/morning Split-Dosing regimen. Approximately 540 patients will be randomised with the aim of achieving a minimum of 245 patients in each of the 2 groups.
