In SBS patients in CL0600-004, citrulline increased by 10.9 μmol/L with teduglutide 0.05 mg/kg/day versus 2.0 μmol/L with placebo (P≤0.0001).
In plain wordsIn SBS patients in CL0600-004, lower-dose teduglutide increased citrulline more than placebo at Week 24.

This analysis assessed changes in plasma citrulline levels in patients with SBS in 2 phase III clinical studies of teduglutide.
Both teduglutide studies (0.05 or 0.10 mg/kg/day in CL0600-004 and 0.05 mg/kg/day in CL0600-020) were phase III, 24-week, double-blind, and placebo controlled.
