Pharmacokinetics of Apixaban in Patients With Short Bowel Syndrome Requiring Long Term Parenteral Nutrition
Sponsor: Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven
Summary
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is defined as a loss of function of the small intestine resulting in a malabsorptive disorder. In SBS, oral drug absorption may be altered due to extensive intestinal resection. It remains unclear to what extent apixaban exposure is impacted in SBS.Therefore this study tries to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of apixaban in adult patients with SBS requiring long-term parenteral nutrition (PN).
