Testing SSDXP-13 a Study Drug for People with Congenital Sucrase-Isomaltase Deficiency
Congenital Sucrase-Isomaltase Deficiency CSID is a genetic condition that can affect a person's ability to digest sugars, such as sucrose (a naturally occurring sugar found in fruits and known as table sugar) and maltose (the sugar found in grains). This study will test the study drug SSDXP-13 for people who have CSID. The study wants to see if the drug will help people with this disease and is safe. The study is for parents and their children. Children ages 6 months to 17 years old will take the study drug as a mixture added to water or milk. Being in the study requires completing surveys on the cell phone during the treatment. People in the study will attend both in-person visits at the study clinic and some visits can be over the phone or telehealth on a device such as a computer. Medical tests will be done during the study to learn and track the health of participants.
