TREATMENT-EMERGENT ADVERSE EVENTS (Study 1)1 *

Table showing the most common adverse events in Study 1: abdominal pain, flatulence, headache, contusion, weight decreased, cough, and early satiety. Table showing the most common adverse events in Study 1: abdominal pain, flatulence, headache, contusion, weight decreased, cough, and early satiety.

The most commonly reported AEs in Study 1 (≥6% of patients treated with ZENPEP) were abdominal pain, flatulence, headache, contusion, decreased weight, cough, and early satiety.1,2

  • No patient discontinued ZENPEP due to an AE or laboratory abnormality
  • No drug-related serious AEs were observed

CF=cystic fibrosis; EPI=exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.

* The short-term safety of ZENPEP was assessed in 2 clinical trials. In Study 1, AEs were defined as occurring in at least 2 patients treated with ZENPEP (≥6%) during treatment and crossover treatment periods with ZENPEP. Study 2 was an open-label, uncontrolled, 14-day study of 19 patients, ages 1 to 6 years, with EPI due to CF. The most commonly reported adverse events were gastrointestinal, including abdominal pain and steatorrhea, and were similar in type and frequency to those reported in the double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (Study 1).1
