| Core Tip |
This multicenter real-world evidence study demonstrates the effectiveness and safety of teduglutide in adult and pediatric patients with short bowel syndrome-IF in the Latin American population. The results showed that teduglutide induced significant reductions in parenteral support (PS) in both adult and pediatric populations, consistent with pivotal studies, with a low incidence of mild to moderate adverse events. The findings highlight the importance of early identification of eligible patients for teduglutide (patients with reduced baseline PS volume dependence and/or favorable bowel anatomy), which may increase the likelihood of achieving PS independence. This approach could potentially reduce the morbidity associated with intestinal failure, ultimately improving long-term patient outcomes in Latin America. |
