  1. 01HumanRandomized controlled trialEfficacy outcome

    In this double-blinded noncomparative randomized phase II study in patients with refractory gastrointestinal angiodysplasia bleeding, transfusion need during the intervention period was 3 pRBC units (range 0-26) with pasireotide-LAR versus 11.5 (range 0-23) with placebo.

    In plain wordsIn patients with gastrointestinal bleeding, transfusion requirements were numerically lower with pasireotide than placebo.

    Summary · context
    A total of 22 patients with transfusion requirements ⩾6 units of packed red blood cells (pRBCs) during the 6 months prior to inclusion were randomized to receive pasireotide-LAR 60 mg (n = 10) or placebo (n = 12) every 28 days for 6 months.
    Summary · context
    The main objective of the ANGIOPAS phase II double-blinded randomized, noncomparative study was to assess the effectiveness of pasireotide-LAR in reducing transfusion requirements in patients with refractory GIADs bleeding.
