Diabetic Gastroparesis Idiopathic Gastroparesis | Drug: NG101 | Phase 2 |
This is a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group , placebo-controlled, multicenter US-based study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 3 dose levels of NG101 (Metopimazine) compared with placebo in participants with diabetic or idiopathic gastroparesis.
The study will enroll approximately 280 participants. Following the Screening Period, there is a 2-week Pretreatment Period during which participants will complete an electronic daily diary. Participants eligible for the clinical study will be randomly assigned (in a 1:1:1:1 ratio) to receive either NG101 5 mg, 10 mg, or 20 mg, or matching placebo during a 12-week Treatment Period. All participants will be asked to take one capsule 30 minutes before a meal 3 times a day and 30 minutes before bedtime for a total of 4 capsules daily (QID). The total duration of the study for each participant will be approximately 20 weeks.

- Change of Severity of Nausea [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]Change from Baseline at weeks 7 through12 as measured by patient's daily diary entries during participation in the study.
- Incidence and severity of Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]Incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TESAEs)
- Change from Baseline of Symptoms [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]Change from baseline at Weeks 7 through 12 as measured by patient's daily diary entries during participation in the study for number of discrete episodes of vomiting.
- Change from Baseline of Symptoms [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]Change from baseline at Weeks 7 through 12 as measured by patient's daily diary entries during participation in the study for early satiety severity score.
- Change from Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]Change from baseline at Weeks 7 through 12 as measured by patient's daily diary entries during participation in the study for postprandial fullness severity score.
- Change from Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]Change from baseline at Weeks 7 through 12 as measured by patient's daily diary entries during participation in the study for abdominal pain severity score.
- Change from Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]Change from baseline at Weeks 7 through 12 as measured by patient's daily diary entries during participation in the study for total severity score (nausea, early satiety, postprandial fullness, abdominal pain).
