GCT is proud to announce successful enrollment of the first patient in Russia in the Chronic Pancreatitis clinical trial. The multinational Phase II randomized double-blind Gastroenterology trial is aiming to enroll over 160 patients in total. GCT is managing the study in Russia and Ukraine and covering the full-service clinical support.

The 1st randomized patient was recently screened and approved for the study. In general, the sites in Russia have preliminarily shown a higher enrollment potential in comparison to sites in other countries. There are several dozen potential subjects who currently are in the pre-screening stage. These patients will be randomized for the study in the upcoming few weeks.

The pre-study and start-up activities for this study have been accomplished on time despite the restrictions and obstacles due to the COVID-19 pandemic. GCT team is looking forward to reaching the further milestones.
