Frequently asked questions about Creon

What is Creon used for?

Creon is used for pancreatic exocrine insufficiency due to cystic fibrosis. It is a small molecule gastrointestinal treatment developed by Abbott Laboratories. The drug is designed to address fat digestion issues in patients with this condition, and it has been studied in a clinical trial setting.

What does Creon target?

Creon targets pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, a condition where the pancreas does not produce enough digestive enzymes. While the specific molecular target is not detailed, the drug works to improve fat digestion in patients with cystic fibrosis who have this insufficiency.

Who makes Creon?

Abbott Laboratories (ticker: ABT) develops Creon. The company has conducted clinical research on the drug for pancreatic exocrine insufficiency due to cystic fibrosis, including a Phase 3 trial completed in Hungary and Spain.

What phase is Creon in?

Creon is in Phase 3 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 3 trial, which was a double-blind, randomized, multicenter, cross-over study. The drug is investigational and not yet approved, as it remains in clinical development.

What clinical trials is Creon in?

Creon has one completed Phase 3 trial, NCT02137382, which studied its effect on fat digestion in subjects aged 12 years and older with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency due to cystic fibrosis. The trial enrolled 41 participants and was conducted in Hungary and Spain.
