Participant Flow

First Patient Screened - November 25, 2008; Last Patient Screened - July 13, 2010; First Patient Randomized - March 3, 2009; Last Patient Randomized - July 22, 2010; Locations - hospitals and transplant centers; Subjects must be on parenteral nutrition (PN) and/or intravenous (I.V.) fluids.

Stage 1 was screening, optimization, and stabilization periods. At screening, if the PN/I.V. volume is not stable per protocol, s/he entered an optimization period (up to 8 weeks) to find the minimally tolerated stable volume of PN/I.V.. Prior to randomization, all entered 4-8 weeks of stabilization period on that volume of PN/I.V.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 0 to last visit when data was collected.

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) was defined for efficacy analyses which included all randomized patients.

Absolute change in the volume of PN/I.V. from baseline (Week 0) to the visit when the last data point was collected (week 4 through week 24, or earlier if the subject discontinued early).
